Chris Hilton was born in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, a traditional market town in the East of England. Chris has been factory worker, landscape gardener, graphic designer and a dealer in modern first editions. He has now turned to his own life story to write his memoirs.
Chris is the author of Caliente: a true life love story from Havana, Cuba and a short story The New Maid, his first fiction publication.
Caliente recounts Chris's time in the Caribbean island country at the time of the millennium. The revolution is over but the scars remain; the Castros still dominate the landscape, but finally the seeds of change are starting to bloom. Chris's adventures are an honestly written account of one man's escape from the rat race to a simpler, idyllic life.
Chris plans to start a new life with Yamilia, a force of nature to some, big trouble to others. Her enemies and even some of her friends think she is unstable, dangerous. Chris sees more than that. Her astonishing beauty and volatile temperament made him love her more, he sees qualities that few other people notice.
What could possibly go wrong?
Chris is still a regular on the malecon (the Havana seafront) and intends to retire to Cuba in time (if they'll have him).
He is currently writing the follow up to Caliente, and preparing to launch his first full length fictional title; the working title is Leaving.
