Blue-Eyed Girl

Tara Moore was born in Co. Kildare, Ireland, where her father, an army officer, was stationed at the time. Part of her formative years were spent living in the Middle East whilst he was serving a stint with the United Nations. After completing her education at St Louis Convent, Dublin, Tara embarked on a number of unexciting jobs including insurance and banking, whilst secretly harbouring ambitions of becoming the next Maeve Binchy.In the mid-1980s Tara left her Irish fiance, having panicked at the thoughts of settling down in suburbia, and arrived in London with the princely sum of 250 in her pocket, no job and no contacts. A series of unexciting jobs followed, but presently she met the man who was to become her husband and the father of her two sons a Spanish-Moroccan charmer called Jaime. His charm quickly dissipated under a haze of alcohol and she divorced him in the late 1990s, earning the dubious distinction of being the first in her staunchly Roman Catholic family to enter into a divorce. In 2005 she moved to an old Victorian house in Ramsgate on the beautiful East Kent coast and settled down to write. There she met her current husband, David, who she recently married in Italy.
