Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
This is my third book but I have at least another two to add to the Racing Hearts series. (double entendre). I am working on a sequel to Diversions which is only available as a free book, contained as a bonus in all my books now. I also am compiling a group or recipes mentioned in the various books. Like Tori’s chocolate mousse, and Ambers curry. Some of the situations in the books are based on real things which happened to me. Like the mushroom incident in book 1 Misdirection. I am a big dog lover, a real softie where they are concerned. I thrive in the sun and having Spend over 20 year in the middle east I miss it in the Irish climate. But my family is here so what can I say?
