Molly Henderson is all attitude and the other young woman’s language needed a bar of soap to her mouth!

When not writing, she’s playing chauffeur, reading, cooking and trying not to eat all the red twizzlers at once. From the AuthorI love happy endings. I don’t know if it’s the romantic in me, or the fact that I like to know how everything is wrapped up. That’s why I love romance so much – no matter how bumpy the road, we know that these two people deserve to be together. Every couple is special and it’s the characters story that drives my books. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them. Every book contains characters and places that are special to me and represent people searching for a place to call their own. Even if they have to solve a bit of a mystery or fight off some bad guys to make it happen. But above all, it’s about the romance of the story.More About the Book:After a bitter break up and professional set back in London, twenty seven year old Caitlyn has returned to Queensbay to work for Maxwell Randall, an old family friend.
