Natalie lives around the North Nottinghamshire boarders.  She is a single mum of two and chose to follow her passion for writing crime fiction, allowing her to work from home and juggle a healthy work/life balance. 

Her books are based in London and revolve around Metropolitan Police with a tendency towards bending – and sometimes breaking – the rules in order to bring justice.   Natalie kicked off her writing career with the East End Noir Series featuring the strong-willed and slightly OCD character, DS Connolly.  She swiftly followed on with her acclaimed Dalton & Nash Series where her character, DI Grace Dalton plays a strong female lead as she tackles the darkest corners of London’s criminal underground.  DS Nash is her relaxed and often flippant partner.  Whilst both characters are opposites, the magnetism between them results in an overtone of sexual tension and those who remember the hit series Moonlighting will recognise the dynamics.

When Natalie’s not writing, being a mum and walking Minnie – her boisterous rescue dog – you can connect with her on Instagram @nataliehamesauthor and she occasionally dips onto her Facebook page here.
