Annie Chandler-Cummings has always been a writer, but it took until her 60th year to publish her first novel. She is semi-retired from teaching students with special needs and lives with her partner-in-crime, Grant, and their dog, Missy, in a beachside suburb north of Perth where they moved when they downsized. Annie loves to travel, especially on cruises, and it's where she finds inspiration for her writing, generally of the romance genre. A Rose in the Garden is based on a cruise ship.
