Betty Firth grew up in rural West Yorkshire, right in the heart of Brontë country… and she’s still there. After graduating from Durham University with a degree in English Literature, she dallied with living in cities including London, Nottingham and Cambridge, but homesickness soon drove her back to her beloved Yorkshire. She lives in the shadow of the moors with her partner and two mischievous border collies.
Betty also writes romantic comedies as Mary Jayne Baker, murder mysteries as Penny Blackwell and heartfelt contemporary women’s fiction as Lisa Swift.
