I'm so pleased to share that Bali Escape with the Single Dad is a finalist in the Put Your Heart in a Book contest with New Jersey Romance Writers! This story is special to me because it's based on my own experience in Bali where I hiked volcanos, swam with dolphins, and rode elephants. The only thing that's different is that Mia found a romance with Aiden. I wasn't so lucky.

​Congratulations to all the other finalists!

I'm thrilled to announce that my manuscript Reunited with the Millionaire has won the 2020 Emerald Award for best unpublished romance manuscript with Romance Writers of Australia! Tonight, I attended the virtual awards dinner at home in Townsville with my mum and the puppies, Isabella and Jacob. I threw a tropical themed party to keep in theme with the Whitsunday setting in the novel.

I am equally thrilled that Reunited with the Millionaire came highly commended in RWA's Valerie Parv Award and RWNZ's Pacific Hearts Award.

I'm pleased to announce that I've been named a finalist in the 2020 Valerie Parv Award with Romance Writers of Australia.
