Can anyone help me remember who this author is

Bit of a silly one

Around 10+ years ago I used to read alot of fiction and particularly loved one author and can I remember their name...no!!

Clues are- I feel like there name was Tina or Tanya but this could have been a character 🙃

The books were always surrounding glamorous people in exotic places think South or France, Italy,
Filthy rich characters all designer clothes and life on boats and villas

The kind of mindless book you can escape in and that feels good right now!

Any ideas? I know I have given such little information but hey might open up some new similar books for me!

Thanks

One authors I can think of that's write similar are Daniele Steel , Jackie Collins and Jilly Cooper?

No none of them along those lines
Sexy glamorous but younger

Off to carry on my Google

Thank you 😀

Sabine Durrant?

Was it Tasmina Perry?

Early books particularly were very much about the filthy rich - Golddiggers, Daddy's Girls, etc. Nowdays she writes in a rather different style, having moved into murder mysteries.

Tilly Bagshaw?

I immediately thought Tasmina Perry too!

Nigel May?

I think I know.... Santa Montefiore!

Yes I think this is a good shout

Also, if it was a character called Tara I was thinking Heiresses by Lulu Taylor.

Oh my GAWDD yes it was Tasmina Perry!!! @tribpot thank you!! You know one of those things just eluding you and now I have it!

Thank you all

Love these threads when someone finds the book!

@msmatcha I just googled that author and they look like they do quite a wide reaching genre of book thanks for putting on my radar

I share the prize with @tinselandjoy of course! I never get 'guess the author' right so am v chuffed.

This is mumsnet at its finest!

Yes well done @tinselandjoy !!

I wouldn't have gotten the authors name for ages, and from the picky little clues I gave you both did a great job!

Well done @tribpot! @MoonBase I work in publishing so I have a good knowledge of authors, always happy to use it!

Tasmina perry

Oh 😂 I just saw that you got it
ive got pretty much all of her books
goldiggers is my favourite

If you liked Tasmina Perry
try Rebbeca Chance especially Killer Queens 😂 same sort of era as Tasmina Perry but this one book is an absolute scream

Love these threads when it works out!

then someone always comes along pretending not to read the thread and like they’ve just guessed the right answer anyway 😆

Haha

@Im99912 I will definitely look into that!!

I'm planning my holiday by the pool reading!
