I hope you'll like it!


She nodded. “Yes. Her reply was that for fifteen-year-old-girls all the teachers seem like dragons. She remembers her Science teacher who had given her a hard time.”
He chuckled, which earned him a momentary glare from Mia.
Zach shrugged his left shoulder. “I s’pose she has a point.”
Rolling her eyes, she snuggled even closer to him.  “You’ll meet her tomorrow when you drop me off at S...

Mia let out a mighty sigh. She had joined Zach at the front porch and sat next to him on the swing. Enjoying a cool drink he’d offered her to grab a soft drink from the fridge. It was a warm summer day, and the air had no intention to cool down. A lot of people in Hobart were tired and weary, as this was an unusual hot spell for the very southern city of Australia.
With another hefty sigh, Mia r...

It happened the way attraction happens best: suddenly, passionately, uncontrollably and unforgettably.Thousands of feet above the ground on a crowded flight to Washington, D.C., radio personality Keely Williams felt the irresistible pull of handsome congressman Dax Devereaux. They were speaking at the same congressional hearing about Vietnam soldiers listed as MIA. Tragically, K...

Cassandra Clare - City of Bones

 Publisher: Margaret K. McElderry Books ISBN13: 9781416914280 My rating: n.a. When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder — much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Clary knows she should call the police, but it's hard to explain a murder when the body disappears into thin air and the murderers are invisible to everyone but Cl...

Thanks everyone for stopping by. Hope you enjoy this little sample from my first book "Sweet Dreams, Miss England"
Enjoy  :-D
Her heart was beating as if she had just run a marathon and it took all her strength to enter the hotel and ask for his room number. The hotel lift seemed to take forever to finally reach the third floor. She took a deep breath and knocked at the door. Nicky vaguely heard him say to come in.
“Hey, Miss England. I thought I was under strict instructions: Dinner on...

JL Salter is talking Greenland and his new book

Today I have the pleasure to introduce you to Astraea Press author JL Salter. He’s recently released his novel The Overnighter’s Secrets and is currently busy “blogging” away in this “web world”.  Through FB and his very interesting posts on his website he shares with other Authors, I’ve become to appreciate Jeff’s knowledge, but also his witty nature. So there’s no doubt in my mind, that his new novel is well worth the read – but I’ve decided to dig a little bit deeper into Jeff’s past!...

Giveaway :-)

Come on over to my blog.

I'm having a giveaway of 2 kindle versions of Journey to her Dreams.

So come on over to My Blog

I interviewed Matt Goss :-)

So this has nothing to do with books and reading, but was quite exciting for me nonetheless!

A few weeks back I interviewed Matt Goss, former front man of the 1980s Band Bros, and now very successful performer at Caesar Palace in Las Vegas .
He's a charmer and a true inspiration. I wish him well with his soon-to-be released new CD and hope that his plans to come to Australia this year will eventuate.
