USA TODAY Happily Ever After

Today I'm being interviewed on the USA TODAY Happily Ever After blog.



And I'm giving away BUSTED IN BOLLYWOOD in conjunction with an interview on BOOKS, BOOKS, THE MAGICAL FRUIT.

Book Lovers Inc.

Today, check out my interview at BOOK LOVERS INC , where I'm giving away a print copy of BUSTED IN BOLLYWOOD.



They gave it a fab review too!



"...zany comedic romance...While reading Busted in Bollywood I couldn't help but think of the movie "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" as the author weaves lush descriptions of Hindi culture and family dynamic into the narrative. Busted in Bollywood is told in the first person by Shari, and the dialogue and introspection is full of witty quips and dry sarcasm. All around good fun! Readers can look forward to a two pronged romance. Shari and her Brit eventually do become involved, but Rita, much to her surprise also finds happiness with the fellow she once viewed with disdain. I thoroughly enjoyed this unique, fast-paced laugh out loud contemporary romance."

Love, Romance, Passion

SIX SENTENCE SUNDAY: Busted in Bollywood

It's that time of the week again, SIX SENTENCE SUNDAY.



With BUSTED IN BOLLYWOOD now released in print and e-book form, I can divulge Shari and Drew have faced many obstacles to get to this point.








"I like the way you think," I whispered, as his hands and
mouth played me like an instrument. 

A well-used, much-practised,
finely tuned instrument that sang the more he played.

I sang—boy, did I sing. Beyonce, Pink, and Lady Gaga had
nothing on me.

Drew had me coming back for encore after encore.

All night long.




For more Six Sundays, check here.




(Don't forget my Booklover's Giveaway below.  And today I'm over at Kerrin Hearfield's blog with another fabulous Indian recipe taken from BUSTED IN BOLLYWOOD. Easy, delicious masala chai.)
