Brett: ‘Love of My Life’

Sometimes a girl’s dream is to have a safe home.

Steph’s escape is listening to her Queen records and dancing at the discos. It is the ’80s; music keeps her mind safe – it is the only thing she trusts. At 16, she finds love and friendship in a bikie called Brett. She never knew her first love would be the ‘love of her life’.

Brett is as damaged as Steph; tragedy seems to follow them. He is the only person who ever believed in Steph and her dreams.

However, with no money and no family to help her, Steph hits obstacles at every turn – with sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll.

Will Steph ever escape and follow her dream?

Tanya A Guinness was born in Sydney, Australia, in the late sixties. In the mid-seventies, she moved with her family to the Mid-North Coast of NSW, growing up on a farm until she finished her schooling. After having two children, she – wanting more opportunities for herself and them – moved back to Sydney. Tanya’s children have since grown up, now living with three grandchildren whom she adores. Writing has always been a passion of hers as is musical theatre which Tanya has been involved with for over thirty years.
