Fiona grew up in Papua New Guinea and learned to read very early as books were THE entertainment. One of her first teenage rebellions was refusing to go on a bushwalk with her parents because she was half way through GONE WITH THE WIND.
As an adult, Fiona read her way around the world always trying to read a book that related to where she was at the times...The Brontes in Yorkshire, Jane Austen in Bath, The Godfather in Italy, Michener in Hawaii...and so the list goes on.
The real world intruded on her life and she was forced to pull her nose out of a book and earn a living. Having read all the Cherry Ames books and grown up

hearing stories about her mother's nursing adventures she donned a white starched apron and followed the family tradition. Her favourite areas of hospital-based nursing are Midwifery, Accident & Emergency and Theatre. But preferring to be her own boss she quickly headed into community health and health education, enjoying the buzz of preventative medicine.
It was when Fiona was on maternity leave with her first child that she had the great idea that she could write a medical romance and work from home. It only took her ten years to sell a book! Click HERE to read her writing journey.
Fiona's an Aussie but she's lived in Edmonton Canada, Madison Wisconsin, and currently lives in a much warmer place close to the Great Ocean Road, in southern Victoria, Australia. In 2005 she sold her first Medical Romance to Harlequin Mills and Boon. Since then she's sold nine books, won a Cataromance Reviewer's Award and been nominated for the RUBY
(Australia's premier romance writing award). She's also had short stories published in Australian Woman's Day.
Fiona has given workshops at the Romance Writer's of Australia's annual conference, been guest speaker at libraries talking about romance as well as writing articles for Heartstalk, the magazine of RWA.
She attempts to balance writing books with mothering, a job as an online adolescent health counsellor, along with serving on school council for the local primary school.
And just like her heroines she's found herslef a wonderful life partner who puts up with her when she loses herself in a good book.
She's training up two sons to do the same:-)
