Reet has a romantic soul, partly genetic but certainly attributable to the romantic fictionshe devours by the kilo. When she’s not watching romcoms, or doing creative things with wool and a crochet hook, or playing Scrabble, she can be found in the kitchen putting together her ‘world-famous’ one-pot meals.

Married for three decades, her prototypical tall, handsome, and sensitive hero-husband still makes her heart skip a beat. Writing about love and happy endings feeds her romantic soul; hearing from her readers thrills her. Having a mother that read to her, she paid it forward, telling bedtime stories toher sons and nieces until they grew too old too fast. As a reaction to them growing up before she knewwhat was happening, she began writing for older children, and has published children’s books on Amazon, for Kindle.
