Helen Brooks
Helen Brooks was born and educated in Northampton, England,
where she still lives today with her husband and family.
Although having enjoyed some wonderful holidays abroad she
has never been tempted to live anywhere else, although she
rather likes the idea of a holiday home close to the sea
one day.
Helen met her husband at the age of 16 and 35 years later
the magic is still there.
They have three lovely children, Cara, Faye, and Benjamin,
and have always had a menagerie of animals in the house,
which at the present is confined to two endearing and very
comical dogs who would make a great double act on TV! The
children, friends, and pets all keep the house buzzing and
the food cupboards empty but Helen wouldn't have it any
other way.
Helen began writing in 1990 as she approached that
milestone of a birthday — 40! She realized her two teenage
ambitions (writing a novel and learning to drive) had been
lost amid babies and hectic family life, so set about
resurrecting then.
Her first novel was for Harlequin Mills and Boon and was
accepted after one rewrite, and she passed her driving test
(the former was a joy and the latter an unmitigated
nightmare!) She has just finished her 38th novel for
Harlequin as well as several sagas.
Being a committed Christian and fervent animal lover Helen
finds spare time is always at a premium, but long walks in
the countryside with her husband and dogs, meals out
followed by the cinema or theater, reading, swimming, and
having friends over for dinner are all fitted in somehow.
She also enjoys sitting in her wonderfully therapeutic,
rambling old garden in the sun with a glass of red wine,
(under the guise of resting while thinking of course!)
Since becoming a full-time writer Helen has found her
occupation one of pure joy and often surprised when her
characters develop a mind of their own — but she loves
exploring what makes people tick and finds the old
adage "truth is stranger than fiction" to be absolutely
true. She would love to hear from any readers on both sides
of the Atlantic c/o Harlequin.
