About Me.

I'm Sareeta Domingo, a writer and hopeful-but-realistic romantic (with a desperate need to qualify things). Born in Camberwell, South East London, I spent my formative years in Bahrain, when my family moved there for my father's job. I work as an editor at an imprint of Harper Collins that is legendary for its romantic fiction (hint hint) by day, and squeeze writing into my mornings, evenings and weekends (while doing loads of other really interesting stuff too, obviously...)

This became my first full-length novel, THE NEARNESS OF YOU (Piatkus, May 2016).

I write occasional reviews of contemporary romance books on my blog, The Palate Cleanser:
