Anne Allen lives in Devon, by her beloved sea. She has three children and her daughter and two grandchildren live nearby. She was born in Rugby, to an English mother and Welsh father. As a result she spent many summers with her Welsh grandparents in Anglesey and learnt to love the sea.
Her restless spirit has meant a number of moves which included Spain for a couple of years. The longest stay was in Guernsey for nearly fourteen years after falling in love with the island and the people. She contrived to leave one son behind to ensure a valid reason for frequent returns.
By profession Anne was a psychotherapist but has long had creative ‘itches’, learning to mosaic, paint furniture, interior design and sculpt. At the back of her mind the itch to write was always present but seemed too time-consuming for a single mum with a need to earn a living. Now retired from the ‘day job’, there’s more time to write and Anne has now published six books in The Guernsey Novels series. She will be publishing her seventh novel later in the year.
Rach Random Resources is the first round of tours I was a part of, and I think Anne’s book was the first one I ever did a tour with.
If you like a bit of mystery, a bit of history and romance; I’ve found these to be a great balance of all three genre’s. Especially how she ties WWII histories with what’s happening in today’s societies.
I’m not sure about more widely, but the two books I’ve read are both from the same series and they’re historical based romances. And by historical I mean back to WWII, so not super historical, but historical enough that many of us don’t remember the events that get brought up, discussed and explored.
