Irish Writer
Hello! I’m glad you came to visit!
I’m an indie author from Dublin eager to share my stories with the world. I write contemporary, character-driven women’s fiction set in Ireland.
Themes include family life, love and relationships, career progression and mental health.
My stories are lighthearted and accessible with a dash of humour for good measure.

My Latest Release
The Review is the first book in a brand new series called The Farrelly Way.
When Erin returns home the Farrelly family are delighted to be reunited. But when she oversteps the mark at the family restaurant, her sister, Fiona, becomes concerned about her future inheritance. A power struggle ensues between the two sisters and it’s not long before Fiona fears for more than just the survival of the restaurant.
Fiona always thought she’d do anything for her family, but when one’s livelihood, relationship and integrity are at stake, how far is too far?
Two Book Series
Book 1: Escape Plan
Book 2: Becoming More Engaged
32 year-old Elva Maguire has everything going for her. She lives and works in the heart of Dublin city, enjoying a hectic social life with her friends. The only problem is she just can’t say no to one more tequila. But when her grandad falls ill and her job is at stake, she has no choice but to confront her demons.
She tries to quit drinking and fails before trying again. But with support from her close friend, Sam, and a new boss and love interest, a whole new world of opportunity opens up.
The only question is: Is she ready for love, a new career and meaningful relationships? Can she finally assert herself after so many years using alcohol as a crutch? Or will her boozy, reckless past haunt her forever?
Midlife Secrets
A series of five stand-alone books
We are led to believe that life gets easier as we get older. But what if that's not true?
Find out how these Irish women navigate their way through the bewildering midlife years, each sharing their own unique story.
And when their secrets come out, will they learn from their experiences and become enlightened, or sink deeper into their respective midlife crises?
