Exclusive Ladies Summer Reads boxset, containing three summer titles from some of the genre’s best writers. The set is made up of Kate Lawson’s ‘Mother of the Bride’, Trisha Ashley’s ‘Chocolate Wishes’ and Julia Williams’ ‘Strictly Love’.
Julia has always made up stories in her head, and until recently she thought everyone else did too. She grew up in London, one of eight children, including a twin sister. She married Dave, a dentist, in 1989, and they have four daughters. After the birth of the second, Julia went freelance and decided to try her hand at writing. Ten bestselling books later, it’s safe to say the gamble paid off! To date, Julia’s books have sold over half a million copies. Kate Lawson was born on the edge of the Fens and is perfectly placed to write about the vagaries of life in East Anglia. In between moving house, raising a family, singing in a choir, walking the dog, working in the garden, taking endless photos and cooking, Kate is also a scriptwriter, originating and developing a soap opera for local radio, along with a pantomime for the town in which she lives. Writing as Gemma Fox, Kate was short-listed for the Melissa Nathan Comedy Romance Award in 2006. Trisha Ashley was born in St Helens, Lancashire, and gave up her fascinating but time-consuming hobbies of house-moving and divorce years ago in order to settle in North Wales. She is a Sunday Times bestselling author.
