Heather grew up on a sheep and cattle farm in New Zealand’s North Island, where her love of reading and writing flourished. After traveling extensively, she settled in rural Queensland, Australia, where years of farming life inspired her to pursue writing. Now retired, she has published eleven books, with her twelfth in progress, drawing from her deep connection to rural landscapes and communities. Her works often blend drama, mystery, and romance, transporting readers from New Zealand’s picturesque settings to Australia’s rugged Outback.
Heather’s writing reflects her appreciation for nature and rural life, infused with themes of resilience and human connection. Living in Queensland’s Darling Downs region, she balances her time between writing, gardening, and hiking with her husband. When not crafting stories, she enjoys caring for her grandchildren and tending to her dogs and chickens, maintaining the pastoral lifestyle that continues to shape her narratives.
