As a contemporary romance author, Frances loves nothing more than losing herself in a good romance. She's all about helping you forget the housework, or the bus to work you're going to miss, if you don't put the book down now!
She's devoted to giving her readers an emotional, passionate, possibly some ugly-cry, fairly steamy love story, that'll melt your heart and have you fighting for the happy ending right until the end.
Frances sets her books in North Queensland. She makes no excuses if some of her settings include amazing lakes and waterfalls, stunning views from tops of mountains, spectacular outback scenes, or crystal-clear creeks shadowed by tropical rainforest.
When she isn't writing, Frances is climbing mountains, searching for waterfalls and swimming across lakes. She loves to exercise, would prefer it if someone else cooked dinner every night, and never notices dust on the furniture.
She lives with her husband in tropical Far North Queensland, Australia, and uses her great baking skills to tempt her three daughters to visit home as often as they can.

Australian At Heart

Emotional, passionate and heart-wrenching. This suspense-filled captivating romance will have you dancing in the rain and smiling through your tears. Set in tropical northern Australia, we don't always get to choose our path.
Recipient of 3 Readers' Favourite five-star badges, here is an excerpt from a review:
"How the heck do you even review a book like The Stone in the Road? It's a castle. IN A RAINFOREST. With a waterfall and lush surroundings. I'm still letting out bursts of squeals thinking about it. The bonus here is that Frances Dall'Alba knows how to tell a story. The highs were high and the emotional lows came dangerously close to ugly-cry territory. A scene between Patrick and his father was painfully, heartbreakingly beautiful. Another is where Patrick gives Kelly the most thoughtful gift in the history of gifts. And Kelly's secret, which was a massive twist. I loved, loved, loved this book and its expertly written sizzle, organic dialogue, a setting that is unreal, and because it now makes me want to go dance in the rain. Very highly recommended."
It's been eighteen months since Kelly Sheppard disappeared into the Australian outback. The guilt and regret she carries still won't leave her.
Newly arrived from Boston, Patrick Van Der Meeliko is working hard to get himself back on track — and succeeding. He can thank the Australian outback for healing him in ways his affluent and empty life in Boston could not. Kelly is his new drug of choice, and he can't resist throwing irksome comments her way to try and get her attention. If only it would work.
With men her last priority right now, Kelly does her best to ignore Patrick despite needing to work together. Kelly doesn't know what's worse — his lame jokes or his driving skills.
After Kelly discovers she's inherited her grandfather's property, she heads north. Patrick lands on her doorstep right when she could use the extra help. Amidst the hard work of untangling vines from the derelict castle, an astonishing history emerges and an unexpected chemistry ignites between them.
Until Kelly's parents turn up unannounced, and suddenly there's no room for Patrick in her life. Despite all the pain she's endured, pushing Patrick away hurts the most.
Patrick gets it, and doesn't stand in her way. He must travel his own road littered with uncertainty and doubt to find his rightful place. Once again, it's the Australian outback that heals him.
Could a chance find of a precious stone draw them back together?
