Mandy was born and raised in Leicester, in the United Kingdom. She went to university in Scotland, lived in London for a few years, and then returned to her home town where she now lives with her teenage daughter and her middle-aged dog. Mandy works in a full-time job, but writes in just about every spare minute she can find. She's been writing since she was thirteen. You Don't Know Me is her fifth novel, and her first erotic romance.
