Planes and books are among Beverley’s greatest passions. From her earliest memories of the single-engine Cessna that flew her from her childhood garden in the mountains of Lesotho, to marrying the handsome Norwegian bush pilot she met while managing a luxury safari lodge in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, adventure has always been her passion.

A former daily journalist, Beverley spent decades traveling the globe, often working as the only female crew member on low-level aviation survey contracts across twelve countries. It was within these lonely, far-flung corners of the world that her childhood dream of writing found its genesis.

Today, with over 40 published novels to her name, she crafts her stories across three distinct brands:

• B.G. Nettelton: High-stakes, authentic African romantic suspense and environmental thrillers.
• Beverley Oakley: Sizzling historical romance, Regency comedies, and Georgian mysteries.
• Beverley Eikli: Compelling non-fiction, memoir consulting, and instructional design for writers.

When she isn't weaving tales of danger and desire, she divides her time between her Melbourne family home, "Wuthering Heights," the heritage South Australian farmstay and B&B she operates with her sisters, and Norway.
