About the Author

Margaret McDonagh, 1961-2012
Much loved, Medical Romance author Margaret McDonagh, known by her friends as Mags, sadly died on Sunday March 11th 2012, aged 51.

Harlequin published her first book, The Italian Doctor’s Bride, in 2006 and she wrote 14 books in total for Medical Romance. Mags excelled at creating warm characters who populated her fictional Scottish town of Strathlochan. She also contributed to the popular Medical continuities Brides of Penhally Bay and St. Piran’s Hospital. Her stories were always emotional and uplifting and often tackled boundary breaking themes. Her many loyal fans, readers and editors alike, would say that reading a Margaret McDonagh book was like stepping into a real community and visiting with friends both old and new. Her final book, Brought Together by Baby, has just been published in the UK.

She had a true passion for writing, which shines through in the stories she created. Mags often said that her cast of characters were all clamouring to have their stories told and Mags being Mags was determined to give them all the happy ever afters they deserved.
