About this Event

We are delighted to welcome "the Woods"—Kirsty Greenwood, Lucy Jane Wood & Laura Wood—for a celebration of their respective novels.
Kirsty Greenwood presents ROMANTIC HERO, a laugh-out-loud and joyous romcom following struggling author, Gertie. Bruised from a break up and struggling against her deadline, she wakes one day to find River Oakley—the rugged, cowboy from her unfinished novel—confused and very much real on her couch. They strike a deal: he’ll use his cunning ways to help her win back her ex, she’ll finish the novel, and surely, he’ll return to whatever world he rode in from... right?
Lucy Jane Wood's UNCHARMED is a spellbinding cosy fantasy story of found family, self-discovery and baked goods. When Annie is asked by her coven to use her powers of perfection to help a troubled teenage witch, she strikes up an unlikely bond with both her charge and the gruff but handsome owner of their temporary lodgings. Soon, outside forces begin to take an interest in Maeve’s extraordinary powers. Will Annie risk everything to protect the true magic she’s finally found?
In Laura Wood's LET'S MAKE A SCENE, we follow Cynthie and Jack: two actors who, despite their mutual hatred off-screen, shot to stardom after their breakout roles as love interests proved so believable the studio had them they continue the act for the press run. Thirteen years and a promise to stay far away from each other later, an opportunity arises: the sequel. The catch? They must also rekindle their pretend relationship... and this time there's a documentary crew following their every move.
The trio will be chatting about their captivating novels, writing journeys, creative inspirations and the themes that connect their work; love, friendship, and the magic found in everyday life.
