New release on Oct 28th
I have a new book (Edge of Living) coming out on October 28th.
This is the darkest thing I've written (so far) and couldn't be more different to my last release. I'm not putting it up for pre-order so it won't be available on Amazon until it goes live. I've added it here on GR though if anyone wants to add it.
Blurb
Sometimes, death can feel like the only escape.
It's been a year since Alex stopped living. He exists. He breathes. He pretends to be like everyone else. But, he doesn't live. Burdened by memories, he dreams of the day when he can finally be free. Until that time comes, he keeps everybody at bay. It's been easy so far. But he never factored in, meeting a man like Austin.
Hard-working mechanic, Austin, has always gone for men as muscular as himself. So, it's a mystery why he's so bewitched by the slim, quiet man with the soulful brown eyes who works in the library. The magnetic attraction is one thing, but the protective instincts are harder to fathom. Austin's sure though, that if he can only earn Alex's trust then the two of them could be perfect together.
A tentative relationship begins. But Alex's secrets run deep. Far deeper than Austin could ever envisage. Time is ticking. Events are coming to a head, and love is never a magic cure. Oblivious to the extent of Alex's pain, can Austin discover the truth? Or is he destined to be left alone, only able to piece together the fragments of his boyfriend's history, once its already too late?
Trigger warning: Please be aware that this story deals with suicidal ideation. If this is a subject you find uncomfortable, then this book is not recommended.

New FB group
Just wanted to mention on here, that I now have a closed FB group where I put snippets/blurbs etc of future books first or ask for help on cover choice, title choice etc.
I'm also using this group as the primary place where I'll give out Advanced Review Copy's of my books from now on. So if you post reviews on Amazon and would like to review future books before the release date, then please come and join. I'd really like to get a few more members.
Hopefully, the link below works.

24 hour sale for Taking Love's Lead
Taking Love's Lead, my new release can be purchased for £0.99/$1.30 for the next 24 hours only.

Blurb
Zachary Cole's new personal shopper is stunning in more ways than one. Gone is the staid, professional Jonathan. In his place is sexy, whirlwind Edgar, whose methods and lifestyle are less than orthodox. Still reeling from the experience, Zack can't get him out of his head. He needs to see him again. Even if it does involve dragging his heavily pregnant sister and her dalmatian into his cunning plan.
Sick of being dumped yet again, dog-walker Edgar's pledged to stay single and put energy into finding a career more suited to an adult instead. Zack might be extremely tempting...and just happen to pop up wherever he goes, but that doesn't mean he's going to change his mind. He's got bigger priorities in life than a website designer who's after a brief walk on the wild side. Edgar's heart has taken enough of a bruising. He's not prepared to get dumped again.
Zack wants love. Edgar only wants friendship. Can the two men find common ground amid the chaos of Edgar's life? Or is Zack going to find that no matter what he does, there's no happy ending and he'll have to walk away?
Warning: This story contains dogs. Lots of dogs. Big ones. Small ones. Naughty ones. Ones that like ducks, squirrels and lakes and ones that like to be carried. No dogs were harmed in the writing of this book.

Last 2 days for Kept in the Dark on KU
Kept in the Dark comes off KU on Thursday as once I work out Smashwords formatting I will be putting it wide for the next few months.
So if you have KU and haven't yet grabbed a copy, now's your last chance for a while.
I will no doubt put it back on eventually, but I don't know how long that will be.

If you do read, please consider leaving an Amazon review as it seems I have lost all of the previous ones. Not as devastating with Time for a Change as I didn't have that many, but I've lost about 28 for ATS. :(
