Cathryn Hein

A South Australian country girl by birth, Cathryn loves nothing more than a rugged rural hero whos as good with his heart as he is with his hands, which is probably why she writes them! Her romances are warm and emotional, and feature themes that dont flinch from the tougher side of life but are often happily tempered by the antics of naughty animals. Her aim is to make you smile, sigh, and perhaps sniffle a little, but most of all feel wonderful.

From debut release Cathryn has been a multiple finalist in the Australian Romance Readers Awards and the 2014 awards also saw her in contention for Favourite Australian Romance Author. Aprils Rainbow is her seventh rural romance, with more to come. She also plans to add more romantic adventures in the vein of The French Prize to readers bookshelves.

Cathryn currently lives at the base of the Blue Mountains in Sydneys far west with her partner of many years, Jim. When shes not writing, she plays golf (ineptly), cooks (well), and in football season barracks (rowdily) for her beloved Sydney Swans AFL team.
