Sheila was a true revolutionary in the field of romance writing.

She also used the pennames: Sheila Lancaster, Victoria Wolf and Laura Hardy. She used both her married and maiden names, Sheila Holland and Sheila Coates, before her first novel as Charlotte Lamb, Follow a Stranger, was published by Mills & Boon in 1973. She wrote her first book in three days with three children underfoot! In between raising her five children (including a set of twins), Charlotte wrote several more novels. A voracious reader of romance novels, she began writing at her husband's suggestion. While there, she met and married Richard Holland, a political reporter. She later worked as a secretary for the BBC. Sheila continued her education by taking advantage of the B of E's enormous library during her lunch breaks and after work. On leaving school at 16, the convent-educated author worked for the Bank of England as a clerk.

Sheila attended the Ursuline Convent for Girls. As a child, she was moved from relative to relative to escape the bombings of World War II. Sheila Ann Mary Coates was born on 1937 in Essex, England, just before the Second World War in the East End of London. How i anyway came to love this book (i love all CL books) and the intensity of angst between Sophie Bryant and Alex Lefkas.I was with them the whole time and when the trigger was pulled i actually cringed when Alex was making her his in any means possible and letting NOTHING and NO ONE stop him (there is a revealing event in this story that made me break apart).How relieved i also was when Sophie FINALLY realized her love for him,but miserably decided to keep it secret,thinking that he only feels passion for her,Jeez woman he would never be that hot in pursuit and angry AS OVERLY HELL with jealousy,and even forced her to marry him if he didn`t love or care about her.That man was.LOCA MAD about her!Overall a incredible keeper that deserves the 5 Loving stars i gave it.The dynamic and dark.but somehow exotic romance between Alex and Sophie completely baffled me.Aka Sheila Holland, Sheila Coates, Charlotte Lamb, Sheila Lancaster, Victoria Woolf, Laura Hardy

I knew the point (before starting reading this book) that heroine are in love with another man other than hero.i was like ok ok i can deal with this.But knowing that this is written by Charlotte Lamb and that the hero HAD TO BE A FREAKING GREEK ALPHA made me SHIT-CRAZED of fright.JEzzus CL did you have to choose A GREEK of all.just gosh!And it had to be the arrogant and savage-hearted Alex Lefkas! When it comes to Dangerous and Dynamic Love-Stories full of slap-kiss,passion and hard-core angst with Ruthless and Dominant Alpha-Male Heroes who does everything to win the duction,blackmail,forced marriage.the whole FREAKING PACKAGE!
