Born and raised on the Wirral Peninsula in England, Charlotte Hawkes is mum to two intrepid boys who love her to play building block games with them, and object loudly to the amount of time she spends on the computer. When she isn’t writing—or building with blocks—she is company director for a small Anglo/French construction firm. Charlotte loves to hear from readers, and you can contact her at her website: charlotte-hawkes.com.
