Mari Jane Law lives in the UK and loves cats and chocolate – and books, TV series and films that make her laugh, preferably while making an emotional connection.
Her Catholic upbringing inspired some great fictional characters – whether Catholic or not – helping her to write humorous stories with protagonists readers could engage with, root for and follow to a satisfying conclusion. Having read many romances, Mari wanted to write off the beaten track and, if using a trope, develop it very differently from how it has been executed before in her reading, bringing freshness to her writing, surprising and delighting romance lovers.
There is a new romance in each title of the Love & Mishaps Quirky Romantic Comedy Standalone Series, and the world in which the characters live remains the same. As sub-plots run throughout the series, reading the books in order will maximise enjoyment.
She hopes those who buy or borrow her work have as much fun reading it as she had in writing it.
She is a member of the Romantic Novelists’ Association’s New Writers’ Scheme and The Society of Authors.
Quirky and Farcical!
The books in the Love & Mishaps Quirky Romantic Comedy Standalone Series have quirky plots, quirky characters and contain farcical comedy while developing a strong emotional connection between the protagonists.
If you, like me as a child, love The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde then you’ll likely enjoy the Love & Mishaps series. When I wrote the afternoon tea scene in Love in the Cupboard, I remembered the afternoon tea scene I both read and witnessed as a child in Oscar Wilde’s play. And it was immense fun to create.
