Aita Ighodaro was born in London and educated at Oxford University where she obtained a degree in Modern and Medieval Languages. Whilst studying for her degree, she spent a year working as an international fashion model, attending shoots in St Tropez and Cannes where she first began collecting the scandalous stories that would work their way into her fiction. After graduating, Aita worked in the television industry while she penned her debut novel, SIN TROPEZ. Published by Corvus in December 2010, SIN TROPEZ was described as ‘a thrilling and scandalous read’ (Closer) and has been reprinted a number of times. She followed this with the high-octane ALL THAT GLITTERS in November 2012. She is currently engrossed in writing and researching her third novel. Alongside her novels, Aita is regularly sought after as a journalist and has had articles published in a variety of national publications in print and online, from the Independent, to Handbag.com. She also appears regularly on the radio and speaks at events. Most recently, she was invited to speak at India¹s prestigious Jaipur Literature Festival. Aita is based in West London but is an avid traveller. She loves languages, theatre, great restaurants, many sports and has also been known to play the odd game of chess.
