Fiona Brand has always wanted to
write.
After working eight years for the New
Zealand Forest Service as a clerk, she decided she could spend at least
that much time trying to get a novel published.
Luckily it took five years, not eight,
before Fiona wrote her first award-winning novel.
CULLEN'S BRIDE won the
Emma Darcy Award, went on to become a Romance Writers of America Golden
Heart finalist, and was subsequently bought and published by Silhouette
Books.
Now a Waldenbooks and USA
Today bestselling author, Fiona has since been nominated for the
Romance Writers of America's prestigious RITA Award in the romantic
suspense and short novella categories.
She has won the Australian Romantic
Book of the Year award (category section) twice, one of her novels was
listed by Romantic Times as one of their all-time top two hundred
favorite romance books and she has been featured in Next and
She magazines.
Fiona lives in a subtropical South Seas
paradise called the Bay of Islands with her two sons.
