Hannah Hooton is a multiple award-winning author and screenwriter based in UK.
After splitting with her literary agent to venture into indie-publishing, Hannah burst onto the contemporary romance scene in January 2012 with the release of her debut novel, At Long Odds. This was followed by the Amazon bestselling Aspen Valley series, so far consisting of the first three instalments, Keeping the Peace, Giving Chase, and Share and Share Alike.
The inspiration for her novels came while combining her wanderlust with her love of horseracing when travelling around Australia and working from one racing stable to the next as a strapper (not to be confused with stripper) and the exuberant imagination of a girl with an empty purse and a passion for a very expensive sport.
Giving Chase was the winner of Best International Romance at the Some Kind of Wonderful Awards in 2012, one place better than Keeping the Peace finished the year before. Share and Share Alike won the Katy Price Prize 2014 and finished runner-up in the RWA Marlene Contest 2014.
Recently graduating from Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge with First Class Honours in Writing and Film, Hannah was also awarded the McCleod Prize for finishing top of her year throughout the whole Arts, Law and Social Sciences faculty for a two-subject degree.
Hannah is currently working on her fifth novel and the fourth in the Aspen Valley series, Making the Running.
