Lexie Elliott is a talented author who has been writing for as long as she can remember. However, it was only after losing her banking job in 2009 due to the Global Financial Crisis that she began to focus on writing more seriously. After experiencing some success in short story competitions, Elliott started planning her first novel. With two children and a new job, it took some time for her to put her novel into words, but she eventually produced "The French Girl," which was published by Berkley in February 2018.

"The French Girl" was Elliott's debut novel, and it was followed by "The Missing Years" in 2019 and "How To Kill Your Best Friend" in 2021. She is currently working on her fourth novel. Elliott's writing is inspired by her love of running, swimming, and cycling, and she often engages in these activities while thinking about her stories.

In addition to her passion for writing, Elliott has also undertaken some impressive physical challenges. In 2007, she swam the English Channel solo, and in 2015, she ran 100km, raising money for Alzheimer Scotland. Although she has since decided not to repeat these feats, Elliott remains open to the idea of participating in the occasional triathlon or marathon.
