Charlotte Lamb first started to write in 1970 after doing a series of different jobs, including working in a bank and for the BBC. Since then, she has written over 60 romantic novels, some of them under different names, and she has become one of the most popular novelists of that genre.

In conversation with Roy Plomley, she talks about her work and chooses the eight records she would take to the mythical island.
