Leigh Macfarlane is a proud Canadian (eh!) author of both fiction and non-fiction books who is fortunate enough to live in the gorgeous Okanagan Valley of British Columbia. Since Leigh already lives in one of the most beautiful places in the world, many of her novels are set locally. In Leigh's books you will be transported to orchards, vineyards, ski hills, ranches, beaches, art galleries, athletic fields and waterfront cafes. 

Well, maybe not ski hills. Rumour has it Leigh is afraid to drive in the snow.

 When not writing, Leigh is mom to four wonderful, not so small, humans, one yap-monster dog, and a gorgeous but aging cat. You might find her doing yoga along the shoreline of some lake, somewhere, out in the middle of a lake on her paddleboard, walking on paths beside a lake... you get it. I'll be at the lake. 

Then again, you could find Leigh fiddling in her garden avoiding the rest of the yard work. You could even find her tooling around your town on one of her legendary summer roadtrips.
