BENVENUTO, heroines of the world.
Hello, I'm Anna and I write passionate novels for romantic people, or should that be romantic novels for appassionatas? Either way, I write for Mills and Boon Modern Heat, which transforms in America to Harlequin Presents Extra. In Australia my books will now be sold under the Sexy banner. For very good reasons!
-----------------------------------------------
Do you detect the faintest Italiano influence seeping in here? This may be because I have recently had the joyous opportunity of travelling in that sublime country, meeting some of its people, viewing some of its treasures, and tasting as much of its superb cuisine as one small person could reasonably cram in without actually exploding. Did I mention the wine? Ohhh....
In months to come, dear readers, you may well find this influence creeping into my books. Think Positano, think Venezia, Sorrento, Como, Siena, Toscana...! And don't forget the Eternal City. Is there any part of Italy that doesn't make the heart beat faster and delight a heroine to her curled-up toes? Not for Anna Cleary. In fact, I admit I'm in the throes of writing a flirty, sexy, passionate Italiano romance right now!
I know what you're asking. Did I happen to bump into HIM at any stage of my visit? Well no, more's the pity, but I did drive past the village where he lives!
So pour yourself a glass of fine, dry Prosecco and join me in a toast to Italia. Salute!
Before I forget, take a look below at my current Presents Extra. I do hope you enjoy it.

Wedding Night With a Stranger
Imagine you're stranded in a strange country without money, a place to live or any connection to a living soul. Except for an icy, angry, stunningly gorgeous Greek who despises you, that is.
This is the situation Ariadne Giorgias finds herself in when she steps off the plane from Naxos and into a nightmare.
Can this beautiful, sad, and until now very sheltered heroine survive the cruel shocks of life in Australia?
Released in North America in August.
www.eharlequin.comI'm thrilled to report that Wedding Night with a Stranger has received some fantastic reviews!

'Charming. Boy oh boy did the sparks fly beween them. I actually felt like a third wheel... Marilyn Shoemaker. FIVE ***** spectacular stars!
And thank you Marilyn. You are one very discerning reviewer.
One more thing about glorious Italy. At the moment, it seems by charming coincidence that I have a book out on the shelves there, along with my lovely, talented sister author, Natalie Anderson. Here's what it looks like...
Love that cover. And si, it stars a gorgeous Italiano hero.
