Maggi Andersen lives in Sydney with her lawyer husband and the two cats that rule them. She began writing adventure stories at age eight. Three children, a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Master of Arts in Creative Writing degree later, her novels are still filled with adventure and suspense, but now they are passionate romances. Georgette Heyer brought inspiration to her seductive Regencies. Maggi writes contemporary romantic suspense and has plans for several darker, Victorian mysteries she hopes her readers will enjoy.
