My Review I can honestly say I’ve never read a book like this before. It was quirky and full of humour. The interaction between Jack and Neveah had the sort of dry humour I absolutely adore. Neveah inherited a Christmas tree farm, and Jack was the worker who kept things going. He thought a woman… Continue reading Fir Real This time by Claire Shaw

How Grimm Saved Christmas by David J. Gatward
Having read the whole twenty-two book series, I didn’t know what to expect from this prequel novella. What I got was a crime, a community and Christmas. No dead bodies here, instead a delightful tale from the detectives of the Yorkshire Dales. I really enjoyed it. Petty theft, poignant stories, a happy event and lots… Continue reading How Grimm Saved Christmas by David J. Gatward
A Winter’s Kiss by Claire Dugmore
My Review What I liked most is that the story started out one way and completely changed to something different. Felicity is feeling lonely at Christmas time and calls on her sister Emily, and her two children to help cheer her up. They do, and it’s really fun as they get involved in all the… Continue reading A Winter’s Kiss by Claire Dugmore
Bishop by Claire Shaw
My Review When Sons of Anarchy first hit our screens, I loved it. Part way through it became more violent and I couldn’t watch anymore. The thing I loved most was the romance between Jax and Tara. It captured my imagination and that’s when I discovered motorcycle club romance in fiction. I’ve read a few… Continue reading Bishop by Claire Shaw
The Towers, Book 3 by H L Heidemann
My Review I read this over three days, most of it on Saturday when the weather was stormy. I cosied up in my chair with Radio 2 playing softly in the background and lost myself in this story. It was wonderful and the perfect way to enjoy a book. We reached the climax of the… Continue reading The Towers, Book 3 by H L Heidemann
Release Day For My Book Toxic, a Post Apocalyptic Romance
I’m absolutely thrilled to re-release my own book Toxic, a post-apocalyptic romance. It was last on sale in 2018, and in 2022 I took all of my books down to rewrite them. Toxic was the final one to return, and it’s the one I’m most excited about because it has backstory. In 2017, author Karina… Continue reading Release Day For My Book Toxic, a Post Apocalyptic Romance
The Towers, Book II by H L Heidemann
My Review I absolutely loved this story. Book two was extremely intense, especially the relationship between Avril and Donavon, their fight to survive the long walk, and their journey through a dead zone. The author’s idea of the future is probably the most realistic I have ever read. Life feels similar to our own, but… Continue reading The Towers, Book II by H L Heidemann
When The Screen Goes Blank by Stephen Simpson
My Review What an entertaining little read this was! And I do mean little. It was just twenty pages long. Small, but perfectly formed. Our protagonist tells the story and the screen in the title is her Kindle. At night, when the house is quiet and you are alone in bed, everything can seem scary,… Continue reading When The Screen Goes Blank by Stephen Simpson
Home for the Holidays by Louise Emmerson
My Review You know how I love a novella, well, I also love a good Christmas story. This was all of that and more. Claire broke her boyfriend Jack’s heart when she left their small Scottish town for a job in London. Each time she returns at Christmas, she’s drawn back into the past, and… Continue reading Home for the Holidays by Louise Emmerson
The Towers by H L Heidemann
My Review I struggled to get into this book at first, but kept going and before long I was hooked. What a cracking tale it turned out to be. The story is told by the main character, Avril, which means everything is from her point of view. When Daniel, a guy she was in a… Continue reading The Towers by H L Heidemann
