One Christmas Moment

Roan Parrish lives in Philadelphia, where she’s gradually attempting to write love stories in every genre.When not writing, she can be found cutting her friends’ hair,meandering through the city while listening to torch songs andmelodic death metal, or cooking overly elaborate meals. She loves bonfires,winter beaches, minor chord harmonies, and self-tattooing. One time she may ormay not have baked a six-layer chocolate cake and then thrown it out the windowin a fit of pique.Cursed with a poor sense of direction and a propensity to read, Annie Claydon spent much of her childhood lost in books. A degree in English Literature followed by a career in computing didn’t lead directly to her perfect job—writing romance for Mills & Boon—but she has no regrets in taking the scenic route. She lives in London: a city where getting lost can be a joy.I'm a married mother of four (including a set of twins) and I live on an island in Hampshire. When not wrangling my children, husband or countless animals, I can often be found walking my dogs along the beach muttering to myself, as I work out plot points.In my spare time, I read a lot, or crochet. Usually when I ought to be doing something else!
