At some point I discovered Mills & Boon Romance books and that was pretty much it for me. So, I started to write, by hand at first, scribbling short stories in notebooks which never saw the light of day. To this day I don’t know why, unless it was a natural progression from my never being without a book close by-often several-because books have always been an important part of my life for as far back as I can recall.

Somewhere in between my girls growing up and the grandchildren arriving on the scene, I started writing. Eventually I met my husband, we married and produced two daughters who then grew up and between them presented us with two gorgeous grandsons and one beautiful granddaughter. So what was I doing twenty years ago before I wrote books? Well, I did the all of the usual things, like growing up and attending school, finishing at secretarial college, which I hated, then spent the next several years wandering aimlessly from job to job. I know it isn’t a great average when compared with some authors but it sounds pretty good to me! Twenty years with almost forty books published or in the pipeline.

So, hang on for a minute while I take this huge milestone in. Nominated for four Academy Awards (including Best Actress for Pfeiffer).Hi, my name is Michelle Reid and I’ve been writing for Harlequin Mills & Boon for the last twenty years, and the crazy part about it is that I only realised it had been twenty years while updating this page!

Starring: Jeff Bridges, Michelle Pfeiffer, Beau Bridges, Ellie Raabįrank (Bridges) and Jack Baker (Bridges) are brothers who have performed together in a small but successful piano act for years.

Attempting to infuse new life into their act, the brothers hire singer Susie Diamond (Pfeiffer). The new line-up brings success, but tensions mount as romance blossoms and one brother is left in the cold.
