After writing novellas, short stories and serials for magazines, Margaret McDonagh's first Medical Romance with Harlequin Mills & Boon was published in October 2006 – The Italian Doctor's Bride.

Margaret has gone on to develop her series of loosely-linked Medical Romances set in the fictional rural Scottish town of Strathlochan and the surrounding villages, creating a real sense of community.

Margaret was born and lives in the United Kingdom. Aside from writing and reading books, her hobbies include listening to music, debating current affairs and watching sport, especially football (soccer), athletics, golf and motorsports. She also has a passion for animals ... she fosters two orphaned baby elephants in Kenya and an orphaned baby orangutan in Borneo, as well as sponsoring a puppy training with Guide Dogs for the Blind. Margaret hates cooking, housework and hot weather but loves crisp autumn days, the countryside and Innocent smoothies.
