I’m a very happy bunny today because I’ve discovered that my vampire romance Echoes of Blood has been nominated for a Goodreads M/M Romance group award, in the dark theme category.

I’ve been a bit quiet on here lately. Partly that’s due to lockdown blues, but mostly it’s because I’ve had my head down, working hard on a rewrite/general overhaul of my first ever novel, Roses in December. Those of you with very long memories may recall that this ghost story set in a mysterious English … More Coming soon to a garden near you…
