After she was widowed she and her 5 year old daughter moved to Lancashire. She turned to writing fiction to make a living while still caring for her daughter, she sold her first Mills & Boon romance novel as a hard-up singleparent in 1965. She wrote over 60 romance novels for Mills & Boon until 2000. Now she lives in a roses-round-the door cottage near Stratford upon Avon, with four dogs and assorted rescued animals. Besides writing she enjoys travelling, swimming, walking and the company of friends.

Ashley Spencer's childhood ended the night her father died; the moment before she fell asleep was the last time she experienced unadulterated joy.

It was a bombshell when old Mr. Elsgood said that a newcomer, Stephen Harmon, was coming from London to take over the law firm of Elsgood and Elsey in the sleepy Midland town of Cheslyn Slade.

Come to think of it, that's about what she's worth."
