At long last, I've got myself in order to release BEERFEST, which has been a bit of an adventure so far and I hope will continue to be. It's a friends-to-lovers Oktoberfest extravaganza with two characters at the centre who kind of broke my heart while I was writing. I've had a few moments of … Continue reading Beerfest is Coming!

I'm SO EXCITED for this book to be out in the world! I had a ball writing this one. Tiziano is one of my favourite characters ever and it was a joy to shepherd Jenn to a better place in her personal journey. So here's a little more about each of them: Jenn Park is … Continue reading Publication Day for Italian Sunshine!
It's been one year since my fourth book, We'll Always Have Venice, was published! It's been my favourite book, so far (A Taste of Italian Sunshine might take over that title, but I'm not quite sure, yet). In some ways, it's difficult to have favourites, because there have been things I've loved (and obsessed over) … Continue reading Happy Birthday We’ll Always Have Venice
I've been in my favourite place - my writing cave - for quite a few months getting book 7 off the ground, but I'm about to send that off to my editor, so I can go back and wallow in the joy that is A Taste of Italian Sunshine!! Graphic of the cover of A … Continue reading One month until A Taste of Italian Sunshine!

It's release day for a very special book of my heart, that has been a different experience right from the beginning. It started with Paris, a city with many faces and a whole world of its own stories. The character of Sacha is a kind of allegory for my Paris - a little grumpy and … Continue reading Twenty-One Nights in Paris is HERE
I am interrupting my Italian programming to bring you this Aladdin-inspired winter fairytale with all the sights, plenty of misadventures and a love story with a touch of fate, set in the incomparable city of light, Paris! This book has been a learning experience for me and I'm so proud of how it turned out. … Continue reading Introducing Twenty-One Nights in Paris
There are a lot of ups and downs at the beginning of a writing career (and I daresay later in a writing career, but I'm not there, yet) and it's important to focus on the ups (while accepting that you have to take a few hits sometimes). The past month has been full of pinch-me … Continue reading Italy Ever After flying
There has been a lot going on in both my writing world and my real world, so there's so much I haven't blogged about! But yesterday I saw a cover-shaped thing for book five and I am absolutely bursting! I'm terrible at keeping secrets, so I've done up a teaser (and because the colour is … Continue reading Nearly Ready for Book 5
We'll Always Have Venice has been out nearly a month and has my highest rating so far for reviews on both Amazon and Goodreads, which I'm thrilled about. Now we're coming into summer, the events I wrote about in the book are happening in Venice in real life! The first is the Festa della Sensa, … Continue reading Festa della Sensa
