Outstanding October
Welcome the opportunity!
This has been the underlying message throughout the publishing process (hint: and the story itself) of my upcoming novella, Marriage & Mayhem.
As scary as it is to take opportunities you wouldn't normally take, the rewards are almost always worth it.
The book is currently with early readers and I wasn't going to take that stressful path. But, on advice from those more experienced than me, I did, and I am thrilled with the outstanding outcome making the story shine 🤩
Writing novellas this year has been the best fun!
As promised, I have the cover reveal of Marriage & Mayhem for you, my valued blog subscribers first, before social media! Massive thanks to Amber Grosjean for her commitment to giving readers the best 'first glance' of my book. I love it!

I would love to hear your thoughts in a comment below 😍
I'll be doing a cover reveal on social media on Thursday, the 2nd of October. Feel free to share it on Thursday if you follow me on Instagram, Facebook, Threads or LinkedIn.
The more shares, the more exciting
the cover reveal :)
I'll be hosting an author talk at the Gloucester Library once again for the launch of Marriage & Mayhem. Dates to be confirmed for end November, early December, so get your travel plans in motion and I’ll see you there!
I'll be offering a free promotion of the first book in the series, Love & Laughter (dates to be confirmed). Whilst it's not necessary to read book one before book two, it is always a more engaging read to have a bit of background to the characters who carry the story.
If you would like to be notified of this free offer, email me at:

This one has a special place in my heart and is currently on preorder.
The Body in the Bookshop by Ellen Read
It is a cosy murder mystery (no gore) and contains a very special character for me 😍
It releases on 10 October 2025.
Preorder here: The Body in the Bookshop
Blurb here: The Body in the Bookshop
(Spoiler alert: you’ll want to live in the bookshop forever!)
Other notable reads for me were The Swiss Chocolatier and The Girl in the Song.
Let me know if you've been reading any good books lately. That's all for now, keep smiling 😀
