Lilac lives on a Welsh hillside with her very patient husband and incredibly sweet dog, where she grows veggies (if the slugs don't get them), bakes (badly) and loves making things out of glitter and glue (a mess, usually).
She's been an avid reader ever since she got her hands on a copy of Noddy Goes to Toytown when she was five, and she once tried to read everything in her local library starting with A and working her way through the alphabet.
She loves long, hot summer days in the garden, and cold winter ones snuggled in front of the fire, but whatever the weather she's usually writing, or thinking about writing, with heartwarming romance and happy-ever-afters always on her mind.
She’s a member of the Romantic Novelists Association where she is Chair of the Welsh (Cariad) Chapter, and is also a member of the Society of Authors, and the Alliance of Independent Authors. Lilac has published twenty-one books to date, twenty of them with Canelo. Her latest book, Summer Escapes on the Scottish Isle, was released in July 2025, with another to be published in January 2026.
