I write escapist relationship-driven fiction with a kernel of truth at its heart. Travel is my passion and I love to find inspiration in beautiful places and the stories they hide.

My love affair with Croatia began in 2019, and since then the country’s haunting histories and gorgeous scenery have proved fertile ground for my books, driven by my friendship with a tour guide I met there. His story of his childhood living in shelters during the conflict in the 1990s provided the inspiration for The Olive Grove, and his help in creating a realistic portrayal of Croatian life has proved invaluable for all my books.

My second novel set in the country, An Island of Secrets, is a dual timeline looking back to World War 2, and although my third is a contemporary romance featuring mature main characters, The Collaborator’s Daughter has its roots in that conflict too.

Inspired by authors I love such as Libby Page and Faith Hogan, I've wanted to write books about unlikely friendships for a long time. March 2024 saw my dream realised when The Dubrovnik Book Club was published. I had just the best fun ever choosing the book club reads, including titles by authors as diverse as Richard Osman and Jane Austen.

In summer 2025 I took my readers to Greece for the first time with The Santorini Writing Retreat, but in 2026 we're back in Croatia on a floating library weaving its way through the Dalmatian islands.

I consider myself Welsh but live happily in Cornwall, and am lucky enough to be married to the love of my life for thirty years. I also write as Jane Cable.
