About the Author

Sheila O'Flanagan is the author of many bestselling novels, including: If You Were Me, Things We Never Say, Better Together, All For You, Stand By Me and The Perfect Man.
Sheila has always loved telling stories, and after working in banking and finance for a number of years, she decided it was time to fulfill a dream and give writing her own book a go. So she sat down, stuck 'Chapter One' at the top of a page, and got started. Sheila is now the author of more than nineteen bestselling titles. She lives in Dublin with her husband.
