Eighteen-year-old Rose Davies is a fresher at the prestigious Cambridge University. She dreams of punting on the river, reading Shakespeare in the famous library, and getting to know a town steeped in history. But Trinity College's newest professor, Christian Howard, is a dream of a very different kind - and, impossibly, the image of the man who saved her life when she was only six years old. Soon, Rose is swept into a world she never expected to find; filled with angels and demons, a war raging eons, and a discovery that will change her life forever... She is the key to ending the Eternal War, but Heaven & Hell will do whatever it takes to ensure the other can't have her...

She's crazy. No part of his life is normal either. She loves chocolate. He prefers ice cream. She's hyper. He's deadly secretive. She's weirder than most, and he's intimidating to all. She's humble, but he's conceited. She's witty, he's always serious. She's gorgeous, likewise he looks like a Vogue model. She is Arianna, and he is Aiden. Who are they, you ask? Why, she is the good girl and he is the bad boy! Nope, this isn't your regular cliché with the bad boy in a gang and the good girl doing stupid things. Nu-uh. This is a little more twisty, has more turns than a roundabout so hold on tight! This is their story containing just the right amount of love, humour and drama. NOT A CLICHE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

With hunters, rogue wolves, humans and packs bearing down on her, Mira almost regrets leaving the Yellowstone wolf pack three years ago. Every single one of them has different reasons for pursuing her, but so far, no one has been able to catch up with her. She has the scars to prove that not all of her escapes had been easy. After a particularly grueling night of escapes, she finds herself at the wrong end of the hunters’ guns. When one of the hunters steps too close, she grabs his knife. A hostage is her best chance for survival. With his knife at his throat, she slips away once again, but this time she doesn’t get away alone. Despite her warnings, she has no doubt that the hunters will follow her and he’ll be the perfect leverage. Slowly, they both see a different side to the other. As they reveal their pasts, new challenges present themselves. Challenges that could either make or break what they just found in each other.

[NOTE: This book was written in 2010, a time of long-distance phone cards, weight-loss obsessions, and searching for a man as a solution to life's problems-what a messy time to be alive! In other words, I hope you enjoy this throwback, and while this book does end on a cliffhanger of sorts, the sequel addresses any unanswered questions (which is hopefully fair, given that book 1 is free, ya know?] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband. Easy to say, less easy to live through, as this book takes you deep inside "awkward Indian living in the West." To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what ends up happening. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book one of a series, and book two is available at Amazon! LENGTH: 75,000 words or 285 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains profanities, blunt accounts of the dating scene, and many awkward family moments. Enjoy!

When job cuts at Chloe Saddler’s London communications firm result in an unexpected transfer to Paris, she finds herself leaving behind her friends, family, and boyfriend Scott to start a new life in the City of Light. Getting to grips with La Vie Parisienne and keeping a long-distance relationship afloat is not made any easier by the culture shock. Committing the odd French faux pas and inadvertently indulging in a few too many flirtations with her very sexy (and very taken) boss, Jean-Luc, is just the start of it. Factor in her bridezilla of a sister’s wedding (the hottest event of the year in the Saddler family’s social calendar), an unexpected session of hot, naked yoga, a slightly psychotic stalker, and one incredible kiss at an infamous Montmartre nightspot, and Chloe can say au revoir to her old, safe London life and bonjour to the romance, splendour, and glamour of Paris. A delightful debut that harks back to the early days of Chick Lit when heroines were flawed, funny, and forever battling for love and happiness. With quirky characters and classic comedic charm, Cocktails at Le Carmen is pure fun from page one.
