I’m Sam Flint, writer of crime and sci-fi thrillers. I’m also SM Flint,writer of adult romances. I keep the two pen names separate so the algorithms don’t get confused.

If there is a common theme between my action stories and my adult romances, it’s that in both genres, I like to feature ordinary people dealing with extraordinary circumstances. So, no ex-SAS heroes trying to live in a world that just does not understand them; and no tragically flawed billionaires learning to love again.

I’ve surprised friends who have read both types of story. ‘You’re all guns and roses, mate,’ was one off-hand comment on one of my crime thrillers where romance blossoms between two people trying to stop terrorists blowing up Heathrow Airport. In my adult romances, I take time to discover the lives of the people involved before the action starts. `It’s all very Mills and Bone,’ said a relative who couldn’t resist adding a wink.

 I’m not unhappy with either of these descriptions… but judge for yourself.
