About The Author

Mike Gayle

MIKE GAYLE

Mike Gayle was born and raised in Birmingham. After graduating with a degree in Sociology, he moved to London to pursue a career in journalism, working as a features editor and agony uncle. He has written for a variety of publications, including The Sunday Times, the Guardian, and Cosmopolitan.

Mike became a full-time novelist in 1997 following the publication of his Sunday Times top ten bestseller My Legendary Girlfriend. The novel was hailed by the Independent as ‘full of belly laughs and painfully acute observations’, and by The Times as ‘a funny, frank account of a hopeless romantic’.

Since then, he has written eighteen novels, including The Man I Think I Know, selected as a World Book Night title, and Half A World Away, selected for the Richard and Judy Book Club. His books have been translated into more than thirty languages. In 2021, Mike was the recipient of the Outstanding Achievement Award from the Romantic Novelists’ Association.

He lives in Birmingham with his wife, kids, and greyhound.
