21st March

Extract at Chicks, Rogues and Scandals, (Secrets Under Spanish Skies) “Danny takes my hand, his grip warm, and I jump. Jesus, what is it with this man’s touch? I turn to him, his smokey eyes making direct contact. My heart flitters like a love-struck teen, and my tummy fizzes over. Is this for real?”

Extract at Chicks, Rogues and Scandals, (New Blood) “Part of his intestines and organs were hanging to one side and the bones of his legs were partially visible. Brian was amazed the poor man was still alive.”

Review by On The Shelf Reviews, (Bad Sweet Things) “There’s a lot of layers to the story and it covers a lot of emotional subjects, with care I might add, but just be warned it might have you reaching for a tissue while you’re reading it.”

Review by Sue Loves to Read, (Secrets Under Spanish Skies) “A lovely feel good read. Great story and characters”

Extract at Chicks, Rogues and Scandals, (Bad Sweet Things) ““Why do you think?” Ursula had fired reproachfully at Dolan. “She was traumatised, she still is.” And Orla, her voice dull, said listlessly, “It doesn’t matter Urse, I told you no-one would believe me.””

Extract at The Pufflekitteh Reads, (New Blood) “Time stood still…Brian Carey continued to sit there, not shifting his gaze from the man lying on the sand next to him. He couldn’t get to grips with what he had just witnessed”

Extract at Portable Magic, (Secrets Under Spanish Skies) “Great. Just great. Why couldn’t Kevin speak to me first about this? I pick the letter off the floor and lift myself to my feet, grasping the countertop for support. Divorce, eh? The end. Just like that.”
