Francesca Capaldi

Francesca has enjoyed writing since she was a child, largely influenced by a Welsh mother who was good at improvised story telling. Writing both under her maiden name, Francesca Capaldi, and her married name, Francesca Burgess, she is the author of short stories published in the UK and abroad, and several pocket novels. She is a member of the Romantic Novelists' Association and the Society of Women Writers and Journalists. The first novel in the Wartime in the Valleys series, Heartbreak in the Valleys, was shortlisted for the Romantic Novelists' Association Historical Award 2021. Both the Valleys series and her new Beach Hotel series are published by Hera Books. Francesca was born and brought up on the Sussex coast, but currently lives in Kent with her family and a cat called Lando Calrission.
