Hazel Applebee is an Australian contemporary romance author who writes cosy, small-town Australian love stories atop a hill overlooking the sparkling waters of a lake.

When she is not madly tapping away at her keyboard, dreaming up meet-cutes, and living vicariously through her heroines, you will find her eating cheesy pizza or splashing about in the pool with her family.

​

The Bareela Series is her first Series of novels.
