her steamy historical romantic suspense novel titled Shrouded Passions.
mystery-filled books are set in small townships of North Queensland, Australia
during the late 1800’s.
Each of her novels bring something symbolically Australian to her readers, from
Aboriginal herbal remedies, to certain gemstones naturally only found in this
part of the world.
Each of her books tell of a passionate connection between the hero and heroine,
surrounded and threatened by deceit, scandal, theft
and sometimes even murder.
These romances swerve from the traditional romances
as Faye aims to give her readers so much more intrigue, whilst also revealing
the hidden histories of rural townships of North Queensland.
Faye finds her inspiration from the histories of
not only the township she grew up in, but the many surrounding it. She also
bases most of her characters on people she has met in her life.
Faye was able to live her own passion driven
romance, marrying the love of her life after a whirlwind romance in 2013.
Together they are raising their 9 children in a remote country town in northern
Queensland, Australia.

station owner who hires a native man to investigate her husband’s cheating ways
and ends up having an affair with him. I’ve also started the first of a seven
book series. The series will be titled The Bountiful Burdekin, and each story
