ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Talli Roland was born in Halifax, Nova

university
champion
in the 4 × 400 meter relay. After getting her BA, she turned to writing again, earning a
Masters
in
Journalism
. A few years later, she left Canada behind and
settled
in London where she now lives with her husband and their yo
ung s
on.

Talli writes fun and witty romantic fiction. Her debut novel
The Hating Game
was short-listed for Best Romantic Read at the UK’s Festival of Romance, while her second,
Watching Willow Watts
, was selected as an Amazon Customer Favourite.
