Bachie Ep8

We open tonight’s episode with – oh. No. Wait. We’re straight into it. Okay! Here we go!

Single Date
Our Chinese Correspondent Kristen has finally had been awarded a single date. It’s kayaking and I’m actually here for this date. Kayaking in the sunshine is a lovely date.

Okay they leave the water behind to go play noughts and crosses, or – as Matt calls it – hugs and kisses. They do this to win various massages. Which, considering this is a first date, i...

Emma is handed the single date card and we see her turn into stage five clinger within 0.12 seconds.

Oh. Oh no. This date is horrible. HORRIBLE! The blind fold is for a blind taste test which requires your partner (in this case Matt) to feed you.

Emma understandably freaks out about everything being put in her mouth and that includes truffle so I am totally with h...

Bachie Ep6

So we start tonight’s episode with a brief reminder that Monique and Abbie are on the outs due to “that incident”. It’s despite Bachie Matt’s best efforts at imitating Sherlock Holmes, we’re still stuck with uncertainty about what really went down.

What we do know? Lines are being drawn and there is some definite Us (Abbie) vs Them (Mon) friendship battle lines being drawn.

Alright, let’s do this!

Group Date

We start off with all the women fighting for a bouquet in a world class bouquet t...

Bachie Ep5

We open on… okay. In a weird twist it’s the end of the last episode post-rose ceremony and it’s just all the women sitting around drinking wine and feeling morose about Bachie Matt kissing Abbie.

Honestly, this needs more ice cream pouting.

Anyways, we leave the gossip group behind and tune in to single date.

Single Date
The single date goes to Abbie and she wins an activity I never really understood – grape stomping.

They make feet juice, she tries some feet juice, they pash after her dr...

Bachie Ep4

Single Date
We open with Monique and Bachie Matt dressed in leather and ready to go for a Sunday drive in a Ferrari. They end up at a local airport where they’ll be doing some Red Baron-type adventure in a plane. They get briefed on how it’ll be 8g’s of force on their body and that the spinning could end in stomach upset.

I mean… I don’t know about you, but I firmly believe all first dates should always have the possibility of ending in vomit. That’s the true test of a relationship.
I mean,...

Single Date
Tonight we start off with the beautiful Elly cashing in her golden ticket for some one-on-one with Bachie Matt.

Full disclosure: I have Elly in the office sweep so I’m not at all biased. Nope. Not at all…

We open the date with Matt and Elly at Flemington race track and I’m not 100% sure why but they’re visiting the Melbourne Cup, riding in carriag...

Love in the light

Romance is characterised by moon and candle light,
Secret clutches in shadowed nooks away from prying eyes,
But I have no wish for any inch of you to be hidden away.
I want noon on a summers day,
I want sunshine and windows and curtains pulled back.
I want to see you face and your body and every wisp of your hair as I press lazy kisses to your mouth, constructing a mental map of the curves and plains of your skin.
The night will intrude soon enough.
Today, let’s love in the light.

New Release: Rough Code

Rough Code is now available on Kindle Unlimited and in paperback. While I loved writing this story, it was difficult for me for a number of reasons.

[image error]

I first wrote and published On Edge in 2015. I always anticipated on it being the first book in the Rough Edges series. As I wrote On Edge (Jetta and Paxton’s story), Luc and Evie stuck out to me as the next characters I wanted to write.

The only problem? They stopped talking to me.

For two years I tried to force their story to come. I begged...
