Biography

She was born Enid Joyce Owen Starr on 1909 in City of Ryde, New South Wales, Australia.[2][3] She was the first Australian writer, who lived in Australia, to be published by Mills & Boon.

My romance writing began with an avid romance-reading mother who devoured so many romances each week that I decide to save library trips by supplementing the supply myself.
