Megan Clawson was born and raised in Boston, Lincolnshire. In 2018, she moved to London to study English with Film at King’s College London. The daughter of a Beefeater, Megan lived inside the Tower of London with her dad and little dog, Ethel, for many years. The experience of living inside the real-life palace and fortress and falling for her own royal guard still inspires much of her writing. Working as an English tutor and TV and film extra alongside her writing, she is always at her happiest when living a life that feels like fiction. Falling Hard for the Royal Guard was her debut novel, published in 2023.
