A HUGE Thank you!!

I have had an amazing week and now all my babies have left the nest and are waiting patiently to be plucked from the most enormous library of 2 million books that is Amazon but you know what might help make a difference?

Well its these amazing review from utterly lovely readers…so very grateful you take the time to post these…they mean the absolute world to me.

Thank you

xdee

Live…phew!!

So my last baby went live today…had a  great response so far and I am always more than a little chuffed when readers take the time to message me…my family are very much..meh (and haven’t read any of the books)…so its lovely to hear from those of you that have. Kind of keeps me going.

I guess all I can hope for now is that word spreads or you kind folk spread the love and share where you can and i do the same.

Anyhoo for those of you reading …I hope you enjoy :)

Sale Sale Sale…

Ok so I have a big ol’ sale starting tomorrow. Both Never a Choice and Always a Choice are just 99p/99c for a limited time. This is advance of the release of the final book in the trilogy on Friday 12th. I have mixed feelings about this week…super excited and a little bit sad. Fortunately I am also utterly exhausted as we are moving in two weeks, home, business and animals so I don’t really have time to dwell on ‘THE END’.

The Only Choice is also on a special price for the release and I know many of you have snapped up the pre order which is awesome…so thank you.

Just a quick aside and I know I say this a lot but it is so hugely important to a new author…thank you so much for your reviews, especially those that take the extra effort to not only post separate reviews for each book but also to different amazon sites…like USA and UK…so very grateful…you guys rock :) xdee

Its still Fantasy right??

I had an interesting request on twitter…always the best place to express detailed opinions I think but it was fun attempting to summarise a point. I was asked…

“Do I think Romance Fiction gives unreal expectations for relationships?”

Answer and I will give a bit more detail here because it is a blog…

Of course it does…everything pretty much gives us unreal expectations whether it is the first Disney film with Prince Charming and Cinders and her impossibly tiny waist and huge Emma Stone eyes to FSOG and a guy that can Go…All…Night!! But here’s the thing I would no more expect to settle down with a kinky billionaire than I would be looking to settle down with a hobbit owning a shiny gold ring. It’s fantasy…it’s romance yes but it is still escapism. And honestly, thank fuck for that!

Our Book Review – Always A Choice (The Choices Trilogy #2) – Dee Palmer

The second book in the Choices Trilogy left us spellbound.

We are once again drawn into Bethany and Daniel’s lives.
Bethany has survived the sinister antics of her deranged sister, saved by Daniel. Things run smoothly for them both for a while until Daniels ex reappears and asks for his assistance.

When Daniel offers his help to Angel, he can’t understand why Bethany sees this as a total deal breaker.

Are we all destined to live our lives as our pasts see fit?

Should we let our pasts define our future?

Is there always a chance to correct past wrong doings?

Fortunately, there’s the final instalment to this trilogy to hopefully answer these questions.

We loved being smack bang in the middle of Daniels and Bethany’s story. We think you would be hard up to find anyone who…

Thrilled to be getting reviews like this…

Bethany struggles everyday!

She has a demanding job, studies part time and her mum has late stage dementia which sees her in a nursing home.

Bethany is doing all of this for her mum. Has been doing all of this since her sister, Kit, disappeared with the money from the sale of their childhood home.

Bethany (Bets) knows all about loss……. Her childhood sweetheart was murdered defending her.

When she first meets Daniel, sparks fly, but she denies her feelings towards him.

Bets takes on a second job at a late night call centre, where she becomes Lola, a sultry submissive.

She only has one caller who she only knows as Sir.

What will happen when Bets realises that Daniel and Sir are the same person?
And when her sister turns up in her life again, will Bets…

Promise shmomise…

I promised not to write until we have moved because honestly there is a shit ton to do and I am less than bloody useless when I’m in writer mode…but I have so much I want to get down. I decided that I can still dip in to my novella because that is kind of mini writing so doesn’t really count…does it?

I have also been doing some teasers for book one Never a Choice…I really think I got the hang of it by book 3 so looking back the first ones I did  look a little…lets be honest…they look a little crap. Anyhoo hope you like these fresh little numbers…xdee

This is what I do when I’m not writing….

Yep I spend way to much time on Amazon and FB…but its sooo worth it when I find something a wonderful as this

Oh no its the End…

I am not going to lie…I am more than a little emotional right now. I have finished…I mean I have just finished all the final edits my editors report suggested for book three. So thats it…I have to ‘listen to it’ to pick up the pesky typos but my Trilogy is complete and ready to send to the formatter. Shit what am I supposed to do now. I know the washing is a sizeable pile and the weeds on the patio look more like Trifyds and lucky me i’ve forgotten what the ironing board looks like but lets face it that will all be there tomorrow and the day after that. Sooo what to do with me…I have been writing, editing, marketing (well trying to) since February ’14 and can actually say I have finished. Not I’ve finished but now I have to…edit,re read, copy edit read oh and read again. Nope I’m done…so what do you think?

Finally got my Social Media Act together
