My latest book
The Secret Mistletoe Promise
My new book is the second in the Secret Bookshop series, set in the fictional north Norfolk village of Mistingham. It’s a twinkly, festive treat about love, friendship and Christmas sparkle, and I love it a whole lot. It’s out on the 6th November this year. Here is a little bit more about it:
Is a new beginning waiting for her this Christmas?
When Imogen leaves her fiancé at the altar and escapes to her grandmother’s cottage by the sea, the only thing she wants to do is disappear.
But in a village curious about their new arrival, Imogen finds hiding out harder than expected, especially with the charming local baker Dexter around to distract her.
As secrets unravel and the festive season draws near, Imogen wonders if she’s been running from the wrong things all along.
Will the runaway bride find her happy ever after under the mistletoe?
About Me
I am a bestselling author of contemporary romance, and have sold over a million copies of my books. My fiction is feel-good and escapist, featuring unforgettable characters who find their happy place, and I’m most well known for my eight book Cornish Cream Tea series. The Secret Christmas Bookshop, the start of my new, Norfolk-set series, is my sixteenth novel.
I live in Norwich with my husband David, and when I’m not daydreaming about my books, other people’s books or romantic heroes in general, I love exploring the windswept Norfolk coastline or returning to my home city of London. I’m a huge fan of ghost stories, coffee and Henry Cavill.
I’d love to hear from you about anything book-related or otherwise, so if you feel like it, please get in touch!
