Katy was used to losing things. First she’d lost her childhood home, then her career and reputation, and finally, and most dreadfully, her identity, so she knew she should be used to it. She wasn’t though and she couldn’t bear the thought of having to leave her job and start over, not now she was beginning to make a new life for herself. On the other hand she wasn’t prepared to play second fiddle to her boss’s girlfriend. Thank goodness she’d found out what he was really like before it was too late…or had she? Review "Sheila Claydon shows her readers that `happily ever after' isn't about the lack of trials or the perception of perfection, but instead is the byproduct of people who work hard to triumph over difficulty and subsequently learn from their mistakes. Her secondary characters are also terrific and enrich a worthwhile read. Highly recommend." ~ Readwrite "Enjoyed this book. I will watch for more of Claydon's books. I have already recommended it to my other reader friends. Cute story." ~ Patsy Davis "Another heart warming romance from Sheila Claydon. Sheila is excellent at conjuring up very realistic characters that as a reader you want to get to know." ~ Liz
Although she was born and educated on the south coast of England, life choices have gradually moved Sheila Claydon and her family northwards across the UK. At present she is lucky enough to live on a stunning stretch of wild coastline in the northwest of the country where she finds walking her dog an enjoyable if necessary counterweight to the sedentary life of a writer.
Interspersed with her writing is a long and varied career in health, education and employment and she likes to think she is a better writer because of those experiences. She also admits that a few of her heavily disguised characters are based on people she has met or worked with in the past.
