Welcome to the Helen Fisher website

I’m a writer of contemporary fiction. My novels are plot-driven, but known for their exploration of relationships and human connection, particularly within the setting of the family and friendship groups. My characters grapple with moral choices and challenging dilemmas, but the stories I tell have humour and are ultimately uplifting. I want to take you on an emotional journey, but I do my best to look after my readers along the way and endeavour to leave you feeling better about life. You will find yourself wondering what you would have done if you’d been a character in my books.
