The Falls

Cathryn Hein was born in South Australia's rural south-east and is a popular author of rural romance and romantic adventure novels. She was a Romance Writers of Australia Romantic Book of the Year finalist with Santa and the Saddler, and is a regular Australian Romance Reader Awards finalist. Cathryn's first three novels: Promises, Heart of the Valley and Heartland, were finalists in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 Australian Romance Readers Awards. She has written six novels in the Levenham Love Story series including Rocking Horse Hill, along with more than 8 standalone rural romances. The French Prize was her first romantic adventure story. Cathryn loves nothing more than a rugged rural hero who’s as good with his heart as he is with his hands. Her romances are warm and emotional, and feature themes that don’t flinch from the tougher side of life but are often happily tempered by the antics of naughty animals. Her aim is to make you smile, sigh, and perhaps sniffle a little, but most of all feel wonderful. Cathryn lives in Newcastle, Australia with her partner of many years, Jim. When she’s not writing, she plays golf (ineptly), cooks (well), and in football season barracks (rowdily) for her beloved Sydney Swans AFL team.
