I love books which not only contain a good story but also carry some valuable life lessons. This book surprised me. It wasn’t what I expected at all. I knew I would get a funny romance with a gin theme, but I didn’t think I would get an uplifting story of reinvention, self discovery and […]

I am going to be honest here. Until I started working with my editors, […]
This book, As Luck Would Have It, is a strong contender for my Best Book of 2019. It is such a sweet romance I didn’t want to turn out the light and go to sleep. I wanted to throw open my bedroom window and burst into a glorious song. Before I devoured this book I […]

After 3 years and 6 months of blood, sweat, tears, endless cups of coffee, 12 drafts, 5 rewrites, many hours spent at the kitchen table, countless time spent gazing out of the window daydreaming, loads of sweaty author nightmares, millions of texts and emails to writers friends, a mind […]
