Stella QuinnStella Quinn believes romance, adventure and escape are the reasons we love to read. They're also the reasons she loves to write. She's just finished a trio of holiday romance novels: Tropic Storm, which won the RWA Emerald Pro Award for best unpublihed manuscript in 2019, Stowaway, which came second in the RWA Emerald Award for best unpublished manuscript in 2018, and Island Fling, which won the coveted Valerie Parv Award in 2018. Her novella, The Umbrella Diaries, was published in Literary Crush Publishing's 2019 April Showers anthology, and she has a smalltown series due for release in 2020, The Cathedral Springs Series, starting with a Christmas novella, All I Want, being released in an anthology in December 2019. Stella was born in England, has lived in Asia, Australia and the South Pacific, and travels extensively (by book and by research, and even, occasionally, by plane) to romantic destinations, many of which she talks about in her sporadic blog The Traveling Heart: a booklover's guide to romantic destinations. When she's not sitting under a palm tree scribbling (the old-fashioned way) in a notebook, she can be found walking her labradors, roaming her neighbourhood in search of the perfect latte, or thrashing her children at scrabble.
