Kaisa knows she should be happy.

To marry The Englishman, Peter, was a mere dream when she was a student in Helsinki. It’s now 1984 and Kaisa wants a career as well as Peter. But no one in Portsmouth wants to give a job to a young, foreign Navy Wife. Kaisa’s frustration creates bitter rows between the newlyweds, which Kaisa regrets each time Peter goes away to sea.

When Peter is posted to serve on a Royal Navy Polaris missile submarine in Faslane, Kaisa has little choice but to follow him up to Scotland.

Enter rich, charming, and clever Duncan who seems to have all the answers to Kaisa’s problems. With Peter away, can the lonely and bored Kaisa resist Duncan’s advances?

Can Peter and Kaisa’s love stay on course?

Nordic Noir meets Scandinavian romance in this 1980s love story.

Reviews:

I was lucky enough to win this book on a Goodreads giveaway.
It is a well written love story, of a foreign wife and a sub-mariner, and her struggle to be accepted, a ideal book for those lazy days when you just want to chill out with easy reading and a nice drink round the pool on holiday. 5***** on Goodreads

I recommend The Faithful Heart to anyone who likes reading interesting and unusual novels about marriage and romance. Although I also recommend the first novel in the series, The English Heart, The Faithful Heart also works well as a standalone novel. Wondering and hoping now whether there will be a third book in the series… 5***** Debbie Young, Author and Book Blogger.

Excellent sequel to The English Heart, can’t wait for the next part of the story! 5***** on Goodreads

Whoo hoo! My new book, an enemies-to-lovers winter Whoo hoo! My new book, an enemies-to-lovers winter romance, To Melt A Frozen Heart, is now on pre-order!
💙
To Melt A Frozen Heart is Book 1 in a new series, titled, The Anderssons.  In the first novel in the series, we meet  Kat Andersson, a passionate environmentalist TV producer. Heartbroken after a devastating betrayal by those whom she most trusted in her life, she travels to Lapland, where she meets – and immediately hates – Mikael Hult, a ski instructor from a wealthy Finnish mining family.
💙
Here’s the full blurb:
When trust is betrayed by those closest to you, can love still find its way?

Kat, a TV producer nursing a shattered heart from a celebrity chef's betrayal, seeks refuge in Lapland. There, she crosses paths with Mikael, a Finnish ski instructor from a wealthy mining dynasty.

Their worlds collide like ice and fire, yet an irresistible attraction blooms. Kat, an ardent vegan and environmental advocate, has sworn off holiday romances. Mikael embodies everything she detests about privilege: fast cars, inherited wealth, and disregard for the environment.

But destiny has other plans. When disaster strikes in Lapland's pristine wilderness, Kat and Mikael find themselves drawn together. In their struggle for survival, they uncover shared values and a connection they never expected.

Will Kat's heart thaw, granting her a second chance at love, or will it remain frozen forever? 

To Melt A Frozen Heart whisks you from London's bustling streets to Lapland's enchanting landscapes, where the Northern Lights and twinkling stars illuminate Kat and Mikael’s path.
