Hanleigh loves books more than nearly anything in the world; whether its reading them or writing them, Hanleigh just can't get enough. She relishes in the way authors can create worlds with the words they put in their books. She loves the way your imagination introduces you to a new world when you read a book. It may well be a world completely foreign to the one you live in. That world is brought to life; inspiring you to dream, captivating your imagination and enticing your senses.
Hanleigh first took to reading as a small child reading Dr Zeus. She then fell in love with romance literature when she first read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen; when she first swooned over Mr Darcy. She's read more books than she can count and owns more books than some libraries.

Hanleigh's London

I ring the doorbell and wait patiently.


My foot is tapping on the floor as I consider what will be waiting for me inside the apartment.


 I've not seen her in about six weeks. It's been excruciating, waiting for a phone call or text that might never come.


When Landon opens the door, I can hear her laughter. It's completely unique and it calls to me.


Landon gives me a bear hug as he lets me into the apartment.


Landon is one of my best friends. He's also the half-brother of my half-brother, something we only recently learnt and that I'm still trying to come to terms with. It hasn't affected our friendship at all fortunately. We're still as easy going as ever.


Landon leads me into the kitchen, where Aurora and Tallulah are sat at the breakfast bar. I kiss Aurora on the cheek and present the bottle of wine and cheesecake to her.


"Oh Jarrod! I love cheesecake!" Aurora practically squeals.
