I was born in Hereford, England, but raised in Wales, in Swansea and Hay-on-Wye, where my father was the vicar.
I attended Cardiff University and studied Politics and Welsh. However, my interest in politics soon waned, and I drifted into the field of Information Technology, working for Cardiff Council, Welsh Water and the BBC, amongst many others.
I have always loved classic romantic fiction (particularly the Bronte sisters) and I grew up constantly day dreaming, creating my own love stories - I have a head FULL of them. In 2003, I married David and we had two beautiful children, Lloyd and Alys, and I settled into the life of a busy mum, running our own I.T training business in between the school runs. But I still hankered after writing stories.....
In 2011, I began writing as a hobby and unlocked an inner desire to write romance. In 2012, I pitched a story to the Love Inspired Suspense series of Harlequin Mills and Boon through a Fast Track event. Much to my surprise they requested the full manuscript and soon after bought my first book, Caught in the Crosshairs.
I live in a tiny Welsh speaking village called Llanwrda in the county of Carmarthenshire, Wales (Great Britain), where I write whenever I can snatch a block of time. Writing is hard work, often stressful and it won't usually make you rich. But as someone once said to me, writing is not a choice, it's a calling.
Thank you for visiting my site and learning more about me. I would like to let all my readers know that I value each and very one of you.
Blessings,
Elisabeth

ROAD TRIP
In 2003, my husband and I embarked on the road trip of a lifetime. We purchased an RV in Ontario, Canada, and spent the next ten months on the open road. We travelled the length of Canada and the US, making an all important stop in Las Vegas to marry in the Little Church of the West. I wanted to share some of my photos and memories of this wonderful, carefree time. I think that spending so much time in North America helped me to better understand the culture and values in this part of the world. As my Love Inspired Suspense books have North American settings and characters, my experiences in these beautiful towns and cities has proven to be invaluable. I like to think that I brought a little piece of Americana home with me! When the kids are all grown up, we plan to do it all over again.
