It’s great to be here!

First of all I want to thank Bonnie for all her help in getting me here!  Believe me, you would think I was born in the last century the way my brain would not function to get me here today, LOL!  A techno-geek I am not, that’s for sure….

Anyway, onwards and upwards – I wanted to guest blog today to let you know all about my latest release The Sharp Points of a Triangle as well as my previous books and what’s coming up next.  But first a little about me!

I live in the UK, just a few miles from the famous City of Bath – Any Coffee addicts who love to snuggle down with a Georgian or Regency book…or sit glued to a BBC adaptation of any Jane Austen novel will know just how beautiful a city Bath is.  Bath plays host to approximately 3.7 million visitors each year who come to soak up its rich Georgian and Roman history.  If you have a chance I urge you to at least google Bath if you can’t visit!

I am married with two wonderful daughters, aged ten and eight who keep me busy when I’m not writing.  I love to read, of course, and even though I write romance, I enjoy every genre from crime to historicals, biographies to chick lit.  A writer is a reader through and through.

OK, let’s talk about The Sharp Points of a Triangle!  Since it’s release I have had many kind comments from other writers who acknowledge the difficulty in writing in first person, present tense.  But the thing is ‘Triangle’ is the only book I have ever written this way (before and after) and although I am grateful for their comments, I had no choice in the matter!  Hannah (the heroine) talked to me throughout the entirety of writing this book.  I could hear her accent, every sigh, every huff, every screech of delight – this was by far the easiest of my books to write.  Hannah is a joy and I LOVE her!  Jamie, the object of her comedic frustration isn’t too bad either….mmm.  Here’s an excerpt….

“Let’s swim.”

We quickly discard the remainder of our clothes and sprint towards the water. I cannot believe what I’m doing, and I’m secretly hoping the moonlight isn’t bouncing too savagely off my lily white ass. My breath catches as I leap head first into the waves and when I re-surface, Jamie snatches me close.  I can feel the length of his erection pressing up against my belly. I smile as I reach up to push the hair from his eyes.

“Now that’s just showing off,” I say.

“What is?” he murmurs, his eyes lingering over my breasts as they bob above the water.

“There aren’t many men who could dive into cold water like this and maintain an erection of that size.”

He raises an eyebrow. “That size, huh? The lady is impressed.”

I reach my arms around his neck. “Nah, not really.”

He throws his head back and laughs. The sound penetrates my skin and fills my heart. And I know in that moment, I want to hear him laugh forever. I look into his eyes and purposefully, push the notion of regret to the back of my mind. I lean closer and his smile slowly dissolves as my lips find his. I taste salt, feel heat and hear my own blood rushing through my veins as he lifts me. My legs easily encircle his waist. The world drifts farther and farther away from us. It’s Jamie and I, alone, happy, re-discovering each other.

“Hey you, Mr. and Mrs. Naked Lovers! Yoo-hoo!”

We break apart and turn to the shore. I slap one hand over each tit.

“Oh, good God. Nooooooo!”

But it’s too late. The three teenagers have taken our clothes and they’re running, screaming and laughing up the beach like the little shits they are.

I am giving away a PDF copy of ‘Triangle’ today to one lucky person who leaves a comment!  I will be back later to talk about my past work and what I have on the way…..
