Beverley was seventeen when she bundled up her first 500+ page romance and sent it to a publisher. Rejection followed swiftly. Drowning one’s heroine on the last page, she was informed, was not in line with the expectations of romance readers.
​​​​​​​
So Beverley became a journalist.
​​​​​​​
After a whirlwind romance with a handsome Norwegian bush pilot she met in Botswana's beautiful Okavango Delta, Beverley discovered what real romance was all about, saved her heroine from a watery grave in her next manuscript and published her first romance in 2009.
​​​​​​​
Since then, she’s written more than thirty historical romances laced with mystery and intrigue under the names Beverley Oakley and Beverley Eikli.
​​​​​​​
She also writes psychological historical mysteries, and Colonial-Africa-set romantic suspense, as B. G. Nettelton.

With an inspiring view of a Gothic nineteenth-century insane asylum across the road, Beverley lives north of Melbourne with her gorgeous husband, two lovely daughters and a rambunctious Rhodesian Ridgeback called Mombo, named after the safari lodge where she and her husband met.
