Wendy was born on November 28 in Australia. She obtained an Honours degree in Latin. Her ambition to be an actress was partly satisfied by playing in amateur theater productions. Initially a teacher of French and English, she changed her career to computer programming before her marriage with Frank Brennan and her motherhood settled her into a community life. Her creative urges were channeled into oil painting, pottery, designing and overseeing the construction and decorating of two homes, all in the midst of keeping up with three lively sons and the very busy social life of her businessman husband.

Voracious readers, the step to writing their own books seemed a natural progression and the challenge of creating wonderful stories was soon highly addictive. With their strong interest in people and relationships, the marriage found the world of romance fiction a happy one. In 1983, they published their first novel as Emma Darcy, and now average six new books per year.

In 1993, in the Emma Darcy's 10th anniversary, Wendy and Frank Brennan created the "Emma Darcy Award Contest" to encourage authors to finish their manuscripts. It had a prize of $2,000 and a guarantee that the manuscript would be seen by an acquiring editor.

Wendy Brennan's life journey has taken as many twists and turns as those of the characters in her stories, whose popularity worldwide has resulted in 60 million books in print. Since 1995, when Frank Brennan died, Wendy writes the novels on her own. Her conviction that we must make all we can out of the life we are given keeps her striving to know more, be more, give more, and this is reflected in all her books. Currently, she has broadened her horizons and begun to write mainstream women's fiction. Other new directions include her most recent adventures of blissfully breezing around the Gulf of Mexico from Florida to Louisiana in a red Ford Mustang convertible, and risking the perils of the tortuous road along the magnificent Amalfi Coast in Italy.

Wendy Brennan is currently living on a beautiful country property in New South Wales, she has moved from country to city to towns and back to country, sporadically indulging her love of tropical islands with numerous vacations.

I enjoyed this romance though, I don't agree with a lot of the decisions this couple made. I pulled this from a small TBR pile and have no idea where it came from. This is not for the under 18 readers and I've given it a 4.5* rating. This is centered in Australia and about being couples and relationships. It has a little bit of action and works around upper and lower classes to stir it up. It does have a HEA at the end.

Si para conseguir que la ayudara debía entregarse a él, tendría que pagar ese precio…
Nadie se habría atrevido a entrar en el maravilloso palacio que el jeque Zageo bin Sultan al Farrahn tenía en la exótica isla de Zanzíbar. Nadie excepto una persona que ahora debía presentarse frente al jeque.
Emily Ross creía haber escapado de las garras de un malvado traficante de drogas al saltar de su yate y nadar hasta la costa… pero ahora era prisionera de un jeque que parecía pensar que ella era el tipo de mujer que le entregaría su cuerpo a cambio de la libertad.
Sólo el tiempo podría demostrar la inocencia de Emily, pero eso era algo de lo que ella no disponía. Debía de encontrar a su hermana y Zageo podía ayudarla… ahora sólo debía convencerlo para que lo hiciera.

Pretty good marriage in peril story. I liked the way the heroine was real clear what was going on with her husband and had a plan to fix it. The plan went awry put at least she wasn't a helpless ninny and eventually over the course of the book she got the hero to pay attention and realize what he'd been doing to her. She also grew and learned more about her husband and together they worked it out. Solid read.
