BOOKS-ON-TOUR – The Lies We Hide by S.E. Lynes
Susie Lynes, what a beautiful book you've written! I know, I know ... it seems like the strangest thing to say, considering the subject matter, but you've created such a moving story with incredibly real characters who really reach out and grab hold of the hearts of your readers. Everything changes for Carol and her... Continue Reading →
BOOKS-ON-TOUR – Out With The Ex, In With The New by Sophie Ranald
I loved this book and read it really quickly. Apparently it's part of a series that's loosely based around a coffee shop called The Daily Grind in the trendy London suburb of Hackney. And here we find Gemma Grey who's just moved into a house-share nearby. Her life's not quite turning out to be what... Continue Reading →
BLOG TOUR – The Pact by Amy Heydenrych
I am so incredibly excited to be on this blog tour for a South African author who I'm so immensely fond of, and I'm thrilled that this is now her second international release!! I couldn't put this book down - I found it absolutely riveting! It's topical, relevant and something that so many women in... Continue Reading →
BLOG TOUR – What She Saw Last Night by Mason Cross
I couldn't put this one down! It grips you from the very beginning and doesn't let up! Jenny Bowen makes it onto the Caledonian Sleeper Train by the skin of her teeth, rushing onto the train, lucky that the doors are the old fashioned manual type that don't close electrically, but are manually operated! Although... Continue Reading →
BOOKS-ON-TOUR – The Beginning And End Of Us by Rose James
This one's quite a different sort of book. I'd typify it as a 'what if' sort of tale about the 'life' of Aphrodite, who's appointed as the Keeper of Love, and sent out into the world ... this, after she thought she had already found her true love: her best friend, who she was then...

BOOKS-ON-TOUR – Dreams of Willow House by Susanne O’Leary
As I'm sure you all know by now if you follow this blog regularly, I do love an Irish read! And this is no different. It's the third in Susanne O'Leary's Willow House series, and for some reason I've only read the second book prior to this - Sisters of Willow House. The first book... Continue Reading →
BLOG TOUR – The Bowery Slugger by Leopold Borstinski
This is the first of Borstinski's books that I've read, and I must tell you ... he's a fine storyteller! I would go so far as to say that there's something a little reminiscent of Jeffrey Archer in the way he weaves a tale! The Bowery Slugger is the first in a new series about... Continue Reading →
BLOG TOUR – A Convenient Marriage by Jeevani Charika
I do love the way Jeevani Charika writes. There is such an open honesty in her characters. I so enjoyed her previous book, This Stolen Life, and when I was offered the chance to join the blog tour for her next book, A Convenient Marriage, I didn't hesitate. There are some similarities between the books:... Continue Reading →
BOOKS-ON-TOUR – My Mother’s Silence by Lauren Westwood
When Skye and her twin sister Ginny were 20 years old, they had their bright future planned: they were going to get out of their small Scottish town of Eilean Shiel, and they were heading off to America in search of fame. They had talent and youth on their side, and stars in their eyes... Continue Reading →
