Hi everyone,
Well, what a mad few months. I might have mentioned the
release of my contemporary romance THE REST OF MY LIFE from Choc Lit … once or
twice. Did I also mention it reached the dizzying heights of #2 on the Amazon
Top 100 Paid Women’s Romance Fiction Best Seller List? No? Oh. Well, I am a bit
shy, y’know.
I am now super-pleased to share that The Rest of My Life has
been shortlisted in the Best Romantic Ebook category for the Love Stories Awards 2015!
Winners to be announced at the Love Stories Award event in London (please click
on the Love Stories link to find details). As the Romantic Novelists’
Association Winter Party is also in London later that day, I’m seriously
considering new shoes. The cover for the
book, designed by the uber-talented, Berni Stevens at Choc Lit, is also a
semi-finalist at AuthorDatabase, Books & Top Charts. Finalists announced on 18th November. Wish us luck!

Needless to say, after a year that started quite stressfully
due to my partner’s health problems, I am absolutely thrilled and immensely
grateful for the support of readers, book bloggers and lovely members of the
Romantic Novelists’ Association and Love Stories Awards. I think 2015 may end
slightly better than it started. Phew!
And in other news … my contemporary romance LEARNING TO LOVE
has now been contracted! The book was also recommended to Choc Lit by the WH
Smith Travel Fiction buyer who told me he loved it so much he took a quote from
it. I think I owe the man big time and simply can’t thank him enough.

Bear with me – I can’t resist sharing a little reviewer
feedback
Learning to Love is a romantic adventure novel dealing with
loss of a loved one and betrayal, and does so in a manner that lifts it far
above an average 'chick lit' romance. Amazon Reviewer
This book goes on my top ten reads of all time! Nikki’s Books4U
It’s about family, as beautifully chaotic as they can be,
and it’s about overcoming the obstacles life throws your way and finding love
in the right place. It’s an addictive, gorgeous read.
Reviewed The Book
Finally, because I’m either passionate or bonkers (possibly
the latter), I’m still hard at it, busy editing other books for submission at
the request of Choc Lit and working hard on two new books: a contemporary
romance and a psychological thriller. The sequel to Death Sentence (title
suggested by a Chief Constable, no less) 'MANTRAP' comes soon! Watch this space!
