​​An indie romance author from Australia, she’s known for crafting emotionally raw, heart-shattering tales that flirt shamelessly with swoony billionaires, small-town charm, and characters you’ll still be thinking about at 2 a.m.

​

A Tasmanian girl at heart, C.J. is living her own chaotic romance with her husband, three wild boys, and two fur-babies who run the house. When she’s not writing, she can usually be found procrastinating with a new book or chasing the sunrise while wearing thongs (flip-flops, not the scandalous kind).

Writing Quirk: Queen of procrastination, forever taunted by half-written books​​​​​

She’s passionate about telling stories that cut deep, bleed real, and heal messy. And yes, she’ll break your heart before piecing it back together. (But trust me, you’ll thank her for it.)
