Alicia Hope lives in Australia with her author husband, Frank H Jordan. Alicia is an author, human resources professional, bass player and bird lover. She has a finely honed appreciation for good espresso coffee, fine chocolate and good food, and lives in one of the most beautiful parts of Australia, surrounded by rainforest, rare birds and butterflies.Alicia writes contemporary, historical, and romantic fiction, stories featuring credible characters in realistic situations and (mostly) Australian settings. Hers are feel-good books that readers of any age can curl up with on a rainy afternoon - or any time! - and enjoy. She suggests accompanying them with a barista-quality espresso and a generous slab of fine chocolate, and wishes her readers, 'Bon appétit!'http://www.aliciahopeauthor.blogspot.com.au
