Kate Lace is the author of 4 Little Black Dress novels and her 4th, Love Boat, is out in October. Kate also writes romantic fiction under the name of Catherine Jones (her actual name!) .
Before turning to writing Kate was in the Army and got promoted to Captain. She also met and married her husband during her Army days. After falling pregnant and having to leave the Army, Kate was invited to help out on a magazine and that is where she discovered she could really write. Kate has also appeared on University Challenge in 2005.
I read The Chalet Girl ages ago and really enjoyed it. I’ll have to try and get my hands on it again. I love Little Black Dress books so it’s great to have another author whose LBD books I enjoy. Her other novels are The Trophy Girl, The Movie Girl and The Love Boat. I haven’t read any of those but do want to read them!
