Eva Scott

A bestselling Australian author, Eva Scott writes rural romantic comedies including books such as Lonely in Longreach and Meet Me in Bendigo. Her author bio describes her as a lifelong storyteller whose fiction explores love, loss, and changing social roles with warmth and humor.

Before focusing on writing, she lived in Britain and Papua New Guinea, then returned to Australia to train as a cultural anthropologist. That interest in people, place, and culture helps give her stories a grounded, observant feel.

She now lives in rural Tasmania among vineyards and orchards with her husband and son, along with two cats and a cocker spaniel. The setting suits the world of her books perfectly: big-hearted, local, and full of character.
