Current Publication:

SWIMMING WITH DOLPHINS, Headline, (November 2010):

Do you ever look out of your window and dream of lying on a gorgeous beach with a handsome stranger?

Julia Rothwell certainly does. But with a high-powered job as a Hedge Fund Manager, she barely has time to clean her teeth let alone go on holiday. Then the credit crunch hits and Julia is left with nothing but her redundancy pay.

Her best friend Reece encourages her to draw up a list entitled: Ten Things To Do Before I Die. Top of the list is to sleep with an Italian. So begins a crazy, wonderful, rollercoaster of an adventure that sees Julia crossing countries and continents, and experiencing romance and heartbreak, sushi and surprises, volcanoes and gambling, and – if she can make it to the end of her list – swimming with dolphins.

Join her on her unforgettable journey!

Steve knows Archie isn't the gentleman Dina thinks he is, but can he persuade her she's making a mistake? And will Steve find the emotional fulfilment he needs to get to heaven?
