About The Author

Sandy Barker.jpg

I’m a writer and traveller with a lengthy bucket list and cheeky sense of humour.

 

When I travel, I love exploring new places, outdoor adventures, and eating and drinking like a local. I’m also an avid reader, a film buff, a wine lover, and a coffee snob, though my writing is mostly fuelled by copious mugs of strong, milky tea (no sugar).

As well as blogging about travel, life, writing, reading, and (sometimes) serious stuff, I am an author of romantic fiction. As an author, I write the heart – what makes it sing, what breaks it, and how it mends – and many of my travel adventures have found homes in my novels.

My first novel, a romantic comedy set in Greece and inspired by my real-life love story, was published in June 2019 by One More Chapter (HarperCollins). In 2020, two follow-ups in the Holiday Romance series hit bookshelves – That Night in Paris and A Sunset in Sydney –and a stand-alone Christmas novel, The Christmas Swap, was published in October.

2021 will see the publication of my 5th novel, The Single Girl’s Guide to Hunting, which is set in the world of Reality TV, and the next two books in the series will be out early 2022. I’ve also co-authored a sexy crime thriller with Author Fiona Leitch.

I am represented by Lina Langlee of The North Literary Agency.

I am a member of the Romance Novelists Association (UK) and Romance Writers Australia.
