ⓘ About Clare Connelly
Author Clare Connelly was raised in a tiny country town in Australia. Surrounded by rickety ancient timber houses, rain forests, magic was heavy in the air, and stories and storytelling were a major part of her childhood. Early on in life, Clare found that all of her favorite books were romance stories, and she read voraciously. Anything like Mills & Boon to Jane Austen to Georgette Heyer, and, more recently, the “50 Shades” trilogy. She is a romance devotee. At around the age of fifteen, she tried to pen a novel, and was about a glamorous fashion model that fell foul of a high-end designer. Clothes flew, as did the sparks, and a love was born.
