Avril Tremayne became a writer via careers in shoe-selling, nursing, teaching and public relations.
Along the way, she studied acting, singing, pottery, oil painting, millinery, German and Arabic (among other things).
A committed urbanite, her favourite stories are fast-paced contemporary city stories told with sass and humour.
Married with one daughter, Avril lives in Sydney, Australia.
When not writing or reading, she's thinking about food, wine and shoes.
Cara Lockwood has written more than 30 novels, including I Do (But I Don't), which was made into a Lifetime Original Movie.
She grew up near Dallas, raised by her Japanese-American Dad and Scottish/English mother. Her work has been translated into several languages. Cara lives near Chicago with her husband and five children (two by biology and three by marriage), and their 85-pound Goldendoodle, Theodore.
