Cara won the lottery - well, the public ballot anyway. Finally, after years of trying, the hallowed email had popped into her in-box. Wimbledon. Pity she hated tennis. The reason she'd been trying? Her mum, Nancy, loved it. More than her she sometimes teased with a laugh. With a resigned smile she'd bought the tickets and arranged the hotel. After all, it was only a day out of her life. Just a tennis match. Hardly life altering stuff.
Or so she thought.....

Light of My Life
Country and Western Jeans and cowboy boots Tom and a guitar. Some things just click. Are meant to go together. When Tom decides to play at a C&W Club as part of his preparation for a new film role, he thinks he's found something else that just clicks. Him and the pretty brunette with the wicked sense of humour and even more wicked mouth. What he doesn't realise is that just like his new role, she's not quite what she appears to be. In fact, she's someone else entirely. Someone who will challenge him more than a western two-step after too many bottles of beer.......Complete
Trust In Love
"You're fired, Jennie. Collect your things and go. Now. Just be thankful he's not pressing charges. I can't believe you did this. After all this time? Stealing from our customers is just so low. If you were in trouble, you only needed to say. Now please, go." Jennie had been accused of being many things in life. A beloved daughter, a loyal friend, a hardworking colleague, but now? Now she stood accused of something unbelievable. A thief. Tom hadn't meant to leave his backpack lying under the table. Distracted by the usual mele that surrounded his every move these days, he'd been jostled out of the cafe and into a taxi. On its return, he finds not everything he put into it, still there. So begins a spiral that Jennie could never have imagined. Clearing her name will take more than just detective work. It will take love and trust.Complete
Just Like a Movie.
One last question?... she smiled and he winked. Go right ahead, I'm all ears darling... the crowd fell silent. She bit her lip and took a deep breath. Will you marry me? Alice Winters shook her head, switched off the tv and stood up, stretching with a wry smile. Hallmark movies, they were bubble gum for the eyes. Entertaining and sweet but ultimately, not the stuff you live on. As she pulled the contents of her suitcase together, she looked at her phone. In twenty four hours she'd be there. In thirty-six, she'd finally meet him. Her hero... her God amongst Men... her Tom. Hers and several thousand others, sadly. If only life was like a Hallmark Movie....Complete

A Question Of Love
Jamie was a fan, a BIG fan. Of Marvel, of Shakespeare; of pretty much anything Tom Hiddleston had done, was doing or would even consider doing. She was loyal to a fault but she was also old enough to know a pipe dream when she saw one. Meeting him, let alone speaking to him or, in her wildest imagination, even just being his friend, was out of the question. At least, that's what she thought as she uploaded her "ask me a question" entry. Until an email dropped into her inbox. An email that would change not only her life and but also the way she looked at Tom forever.Complete
Found

A dream is a wish your heart makes, and sometimes wishes - and dreams - come true.... don't they?Complete
Secret Love
Felicity Wilks laughed perhaps a little too loudly at the cheesy joke. One of a hundred she'd been entertained with on the way home, this one had particularly tickled her. Tom looked up, the sound of laughter echoing in the quiet carriage. The girl - no - the WOMAN at the opposite table glanced over. "Sorry!" she mouthed silently as someone , some lucky one, spoke into her ear. Her eyes sparkled and her smiled beamed. She was, quite simply beautiful.... Love is hard enough for "ordinary" people. For people like Tom and Flick, it becomes doubly difficult. Especially when one of you is harbouring a secret.....Complete
A Perfect Day
The sun was out, the sky was blue, not a cloud to spoil the view..... the music played gently in her ears as she lay on the grass and looked up. Today had been a long, long time coming. Life had been hard for Ali Greene recently, what with the house move, the family dramas and the fact she was starting to think she had missed the boat completely when the tickets to romance had been handed out. Now, as she looked at the azure sky she wiped away the single tear she couldn't hide any longer and closed her eyes. This, at last, was her perfect day away. The house could wait, the family could take care of itself and the romance? Well, there was always an audio book.... THE audio book. The one she turned to for comfort. Read by her comfort human. The one with the eyes as blue as the sky.... The blue eyes that were currently sitting unseen not twenty feet away, watching the beautiful woman with the tired smile and the pretty eyes. She looked like she needed today. She looked like she needed comfort....Complete
Acting on Mischief
They say art imitates life.... and life always finds a way. For Loki Laufeyson, God of Mischief, life had found a way to become bearable but ultimately boring. Now, he had a chance to make it exciting again. Should he? Could he? What if someone found out? But then, when you're hiding -very successfully- on another world, who is there to find you out.....? Lizzie Wilson is almost as bored, not that she knows it. Well, she knows she's bored but not... It's been ten years of Pet Shows, Cake competitions and the latest on the closure of the local Library. Hardly the stuff of Pulitzer Prizes. Journalism was her dream, a sleepy backwater with a local weekly newspaper was not. Now, as she realises this is her last chance to hit the Big Time, she decides to call in a favour. Her cousin is an agent in London. Surely there must be more to the smoke and mirrors of showbusiness? Trouble is, when she looks in the mirror, she sees far more than she ever bargained for.....
