Biography
Carole Mortimer was born about 1960 in a very rural hamlet in the east England, and she had two brothers. She studied only one year of nursing, and ended up working in the computer department of a well-known stationery company, where she started to write her first manuscript.
The manuscript was rejected by Mills & Boon, but the second was accepted and was published in 1978 as The Passionate Winter. She became one of the youngest and most prolific Mills & Boon's authors. She celebrated the publication of her 100th book, 20 years after her debut, and 30 years after this, she published her first historical novels, in the Mills & Boon Historical series.
In 2012 she was recognised by Queen Elizabeth II for her 'outstanding service to literature'. In 2014 she received a Pioneer of Romance Award from Romantic Times in the US.
In 2015 she started writing her first indie series called Alpha, as well as her Harlequin Mills & Boon books. And on 15 March 2015 she published her 200th book, titled Shadow Alpha, which was recognised, along with her other achievements by being awarded the 2015 RWA Nora Roberts Lifetime Achievement Award.
Carole married to Peter, father to two children, they had four sons more, and now the family is formed by six children (with 22 years of difference between the first-born and the unexpected youngest child.
