New Book!

Posted on: Tuesday, December 08, 2009

This is the cover of my fourteenth novel: Getting Over Mr Right.  As the title suggests, it's about a girl trying to get over the break-up of her relationship with the guy she thought was 'The One'.  Of course, there's nothing auto-biographical in it at all!
