How I got started writing erotica:
I actually got started writing erotica on a dare! I studied Creative Writing at university, and one lunchtime I was around the table with a bunch of friends. They were all male, as the girls were still in a lecture. I don’t remember what we were talking about, other than it was probably rude. One of my friends commented on how open-minded I was, and suggested I should have a go at writing erotica. I laughed it off, but he kept on at me, then dared me. I couldn’t say no then, could I? So I agreed, told him to give me names and a basic plot, and I’d give it a go. I went away and wrote a story, then took it back into university and passed it around the same group of friends. Let’s just say it went down very well and I’ve never looked back!

Book blurb for Stately Pleasures:
Alice Brown has just landed her dream job. Property manager at Davenport Manor, a British stately home. It’s only a nine-month contract to cover maternity leave, but it’s the boost up the career ladder she so desperately needs.
Unfortunately, things don’t get off to the best start, when Alice finds her boss, Jeremy Davenport, in a compromising position. Far from being embarrassed by what’s happened, Jeremy turns things around on Alice and makes her out to be the one in the wrong. So when he and his best friend and head of security, Ethan Hayes, then throw an ultimatum at her, she’s so stunned and confused that she goes along with their indecent proposal.
When the dust settles and Alice has time to think about things, though, she realises that perhaps it isn’t such a bad thing. There are worse things she could be doing to advance her career, after all.
