Jacquie lives in Central Queensland, Australia, where it's always hot and humidity constantly coats the skin, summer or winter. ​ After a decade long profession as an accountant, she now spends her time wrapped up in her imagination, creating characters, exploring alternative realities, and falling in love with a host of mouth-watering heroes who occupy her mind at first, then eventually her books. Jacquie has a business degree, has studied post-graduate writing, editing and publishing at The University of Queensland and earned a Master of Letters from Central Queensland University. But all that means is that she's super-dedicated to writing the best books she can for readers to enjoy. So far, she has over a million words published, and the word-count is climbing. Check out her many published novels, novellas and short stories that will hit you in the heart with deep emotion, love, and 'no ordinary' storylines.

Ros writes fresh, funny, genre-busting fiction. She digs feisty heroines, good friends, quirky families, heroes to make you sigh and tingle, and a dash of fantasy from time to time. She lives in Brisbane, Australia, with her husband Blair, four small but very opinionated children, a neurotic dog and nine billion germs.

Australian Vanessa Barneveld lives in a 19th-century house in inner-city Sydney with a 21st-century husband, two eccentric cats and one ghost—all of whom provide inspiration for her spirited novels. In addition to her writing career, she’s part of a crack team that produces closed captions for deaf TV viewers and audio descriptions for the blind. An avid traveler, she enjoys the journeys almost as much as the destinations. She freely admits to being food motivated and will stop at nothing to find the perfect hot chips wherever she roams around the world.
