Exclusive First Chapter

Would you like to read an exclusive first chapter from my forthcoming novel, The Island Affair?

The Island Affair Is Out 21 March 2019

Can one summer mend a broken heart?

After the tragic loss of their 17-year-old son, journalist Alicia and surgeon Liam struggle to keep their marriage afloat. During their usual holiday to Åland, the Nordic islands where Alicia grew up, the rift between the couple deepens and Liam leaves Alicia behind and heads back to London.

Enter tall, blonde Patrick, with the most piercingly blue eyes Alicia has ever seen. When Patrick confides in Alicia about the near loss of his daughter and the breakdown of his marriage, Alicia is surprised to feel an affinity with the Swedish reporter. He’s the only person who understands Alicia.

The discovery of a Romanian boy’s body in the reeds not far from Alicia’s parent’s place brings secrets held by people close to Alicia to the surface and, surprisingly, give her a reason to live – and love again.

The Island Affair will be out 21st March. You can pre-order this first novel in a new Love on the Island series from 1 February 2019.
