About

MEET THOMPSON

Thompson is an Australian author with a love of laughter, meaningful connections and making the most of life. Warm, engaging and effortlessly charismatic, she has a way of making people feel welcome and valued, whether they’re meeting her for the first time or have known her for years.

Inspired by a heartbroken teenage girl and a barking dog, Thompson wrote her debut novel, a hilarious and captivating read filled with romance, suspense and unexpected twists. With unforgettable characters, sharp humour and plenty of surprises along the way, it’s the kind of book that readers can’t put down.

When she’s not writing, Thompson works alongside her family in their country pub, enjoys bringing people together, and spends time with her beloved old toothless dog, Audrey.
