More About the Author

Reading is, and always has been, the first love of my life. Except writing.
Success came early -- I was twelve when I won an Easter egg in a hymn writing competition at school - but life intervened with my plans to become a hot shot author. The day job. Not that this was dull. I travelled to Zambia at the age of twenty where I worked as a secretary, before following my personal hero to the Middle East, Kenya, Botswana and ambition became buried in the joyful business of raising a family.

I never forgot that I was a "writer", however. I wrote children's stories for Listen With Mother. Magazines articles. Ghost stories. I was at a point where I wanted to move onto something bigger when I read a magazine piece about Charlotte Lamb and Anne Hampson and discovered, rather late in life, romantic fiction. I read everything I could lay my hands on, then, feeling certain I had a grasp of the genre, began writing. I had three rejections - I still have those letters! -- but my fourth submission became An Image of You and was published in 1992.

Since then seven of my books have been shortlisted for RWA's RITA award - two of them, THE BEST MAN & THE BRIDESMAID and THE MARRIAGE MIRACLE winning in 2001 and 2006, respectively. A FAMILY OF HIS OWN always won the RNA's Romance Prize in 2005.

My best-beloved and I are empty-nesters these days, living out in the country where excitement means a visit from the mobile shop, the travelling library, the fish man. But I'm a writer, I invent my own worlds. Once the door to the my cabin in the woods is closed I can be anywhere my imagination takes me; the desert kingdom of Ramal Hamrah, the villages of Upper Haughton, Little Hinton and Longbourne where romance is always just around the corner, or I can jet off to New York, the Mediterranean, even the Himalayas. Come and see where I'm headed next - http://www.lizfielding.com

This review is from: Reunited: Marriage In A Million (Harlequin Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

Liz Fielding's Reunited: Marriage in a Million is the an incredible first book in a 3 author trilogy called Secrets We Keep. A five star tender romance and then some! Reunited: Marriage in a Million is an emotional read filled with memorable characters and scenes and a delightful resolution.

Belle Davenport, widely known and loved host of a morning television show, defied her husband Ivo. Taking a stand for her independence, she joins the Great Cycling Adventure in the Himalayas, a charity event that will benefit children. Bruised and bloodied from a fall, she confides in two other women cyclists when Ivo does not rush to her side despite the television coverage. When she returns home, Belle is determined to lead a new life even if it means walking out on her prestigious job and husband. Some secrets just can no longer be kept under wraps. Can Ivo face the secrets that he has kept from Belle since their wedding? Can this successful hard core businessman find a way back to her heart and find his heart in the process of winning her? What will her viewers and the paparazzi say when secrets are unveiled?

Belle Davenport keeps secrets of her past from her husband and her television viewers. In an exchange for security, she compromised and gave up her heart. Ivo kept a secret from Belle before their marriage. Both have scars and dark pasts which complicate their lives and dreams. When the secondary characters Manda and Daisy enter the scene, will the marriage break apart or will Daisy and Manda's past, current demands and their deeper longings open Belle and Ivo's hearts to the love in their marriage?

Just when readers think Liz Fielding just can't possibly move the heart any more, her new romance does. How many times have we all heard those classic wedding vows? Most of us could recite them as well as any minister. Liz Fielding revitalizes these familiar words with such a romantic scene that readers may never hear those words again the same way. Humor, passion, and romance that is romantic, all together with such beautiful writing. The hero is to die for--true a bit of an Alpha male but also a lost soul that would steal anyone's heart. This may be a short tender romance, but this book stole this reader's heart in a big, big way. Make sure you have a tissue or a piece of chocolate next to you or a child or a husband or a beloved pet to hug or a great girlfriend to call when you finish this book. This book will make readers want to share love with others.
