M J Hardy also goes by her real name S J Crabb who writes sweet romance.

As M J Hardy she writes darker tales of suspense and plot twists that have no place in romantic comedy. Domestic thrillers and shocking tales of people's lives that are complicated and intriguing. These books are hard, edgy and compelling and perfect for curling up with either at home or on a beach somewhere.

As S J Crabb she writes light-hearted romance with happy endings and crazy beginnings. Sweet, clean and wholesome with a lot of laughs along the way.

When she's not writing she is walking her dog and playing tennis while plotting her next character's downfall. She was born in London but now lives in the south of England and craves the sunshine.
