edit data

Mags Hayward lives in the UK Midlands with her family and a lazy, cuddly rescue dog. Theatre administrator by day, she spends her free time creating character driven romances of all flavours, from sweet first-time crushes, to blossoming love, to shamelessly explicit erotic liaisons.

Mags gets distracted by anything and everything - especially the dog - so writes short stories and novelettes while daydreaming about writing a full length romance novel. She’ll pull herself together and do it, eventually.
