You'd think running 3,000 miles would be enough to escape your troubles. But, the biggest problem with Samantha's love life, is her.

Sam’s life is perfect until she finds out her boss wants to bed her and her boyfriend is sleeping with someone else. Willing to do anything to avoid confrontation, she escapes to Australia packing her lack of self-worth right next to her beloved flares and platform shoes.

It’s only after running into a hunky Italian Stallion that she discovers even 3,000 miles isn’t far enough to escape yourself. And with this man’s nasty habit of stalking, she’s going to be hard pushed to escape him, too.

Sick of looking over her shoulder, she’s close to swearing off men altogether when she meets Chris. This Australian is different to any man she’s ever met, perhaps even too good to be true?

Will Sam learn to love herself enough to think she deserves her chance at happiness, or does she still have more to learn?

TRIGGER WARNING:
Set in the seventies, the book contains swearing, drinking, and bad behaviour. Please do not read this novel if this will upset you and cause an adverse reaction.

Although part of a series, this book can be read as a standalone.

She’s lost her soul mate. She doesn’t believe you get a second. Will the least likely candidate of all be able to change her mind?

Jennie Farrell always believed there was a happily ever after out there for everyone. Shame she’s missed out on her own. Rocking up in London with close friend Samantha, Jennie falls back on her long-ignored artistic skills to make ends meet. Her future is even looking bright when she runs into Rupert Smythe-Brown, an aristocratic prat used to getting his own way, no matter who gets hurt in the process.

Painted into a corner, Jennie turns feral and Rupert doesn’t know what’s hit him. Well he does, but for once he’s not enjoying it. Thank goodness she’s got Mark, a strapping six foot four Aussie bloke watching her back and keeping her out of trouble — at least when he’s not trying to get her into it.

Brush With Fame is a chuckle along, feel good book for any woman who’s ever wanted to fight back but hasn’t felt strong enough.

Broke and alone, this street smart cynic is about to discover family is about more than blood, and definitely more than money.

Brenda Munroe was mercenary even as a child. It was that or going hungry, or worse. From stealing school lunches, she’s moved onto bigger, better and even legal things. Life is finally looking up when her carefully created world comes crashing down. Stuck in London on the bones of her arse, it’s going to take every ounce of her street smarts to survive this time.

Strapped for cash — and with a real aversion to the old nine-to-five — Brenda opens a residential school for girls, teaching them in weeks what it’s taken her years to master. Namely, how to get by on good looks and a bucket-load of charm. And no need to screw the old guys, thank you very much.

Will her students be the only ones learning new skills, or will Brenda finally understand family’s about a whole lot more than the blood relations you’ve been lumbered with?

Strapped for Cash is a rollicking, laugh-out-loud read full of historic art thefts, extortion,and politically-charged B&D. So, sit back and join Brenda on her mission to take down the British aristocracy one prat at a time.

NOTE: Although part of a series, this book can be read as a standalone

Jinxed witch. Vanishing coven. Cosmic threat.

Frankie's magical mojo is on the fritz, but her body works just fine. Armed with martial arts, a smart-mouthed familiar, and sheer audacity, she's hell-bent on saving her coven—curse be damned.

Join her as she roundhouse-kicks her wonky powers into shape, unravels sinister secrets, and navigates an attraction that might just break reality. All while an ancient evil lurks, hungry for magic.

This ain't your grandma's cozy mystery. It's chaos magic, bone-crunching action, and a heroine who fights fate with both spells and spin-kicks. Reality bends, witches disappear, and Frankie's just warming up.

Buckle up. Normal was never an option.

Hexed blood. Murderous ghosts. Buried family secrets unearthed..

Frankie thought vanquishing a spectral captain would cut her a break. She thought wrong. Now she's juggling a potentially fatal blood curse, hunting her mother's killer, and dealing with a father who's pulled a Lazarus act.

Oh, and Grandma? The ex-pirate's stirred up a hurricane of trouble, because of course she has.

Meanwhile, Frankie's new magical mojo is as reliable as a drunk fortune teller—sometimes explosive, often MIA. But with fists of fury and a smart-mouthed familiar at her side, she's ready to smash through any obstacle.

Training with Zane, the supernaturally hot warlock-merman hybrid, doesn't help her focus. Especially when their combined power threatens to rewrite reality itself.

Will Frankie crack the hex, unmask a murderer, and untangle her family tree? Or will she flame out in a blaze of chaotic magic?

One thing's certain: Normal is off the table, and Frankie's just fine with that.

Supercharged magic. Alien ancestry. A multiverse of mayhem.

Frankie's powers are back with a vengeance, and she's got multiversal domination on her mind. Okay, maybe just answers. And her dad. Is that too much to ask?

Target: Mimi Merriweather, geriatric time-lord and keeper of family secrets. Mission: Storm her realm, break some coven rules, and maybe rewrite reality. Just another Tuesday for Frankie.

With her trusty familiar Dex at her side and fists primed for interdimensional ass-kicking, Frankie's ready to face whatever the multiverse throws at her. Alien relatives? Bring 'em on. They can't be worse than her pirate family... right?

As for Zane, her supernaturally hot not-quite-boyfriend? Let's just say their combined power might accidentally create a new universe or two.

Mimi and the Werealls think they're ready for Frankie. They have no idea what's coming.

Buckle up, buttercup. This witch is going multiversal, and normal was never an option.

Flying pigs. Troll attacks. Vampire drama. Just another family holiday for our favorite jinxed witch.

Frankie Bonny's idea of family bonding? Surviving the Winter Solstice with her vampire bestie's clan. What could go wrong? Everything, apparently.

With her own relatives either MIA or certified jerks, Frankie dives headfirst into the Zilonka family festivities. Sure, they're bloodsuckers, but how bad could it be? Spoiler alert: Think "The Addams Family" meets "The Hunger Games."

Oh, and her merman hottie Zane? He's persona non grata thanks to some ancient feud. Unless... a little magical makeover is in order. What's the worst that could happen? (Don't answer that.)

Throw in a pilfered relic, Frankie's ever-evolving powers threatening to go supernova, and a vampire who's too gorgeous for anyone's good, and you've got a recipe for holiday chaos.

Will Frankie survive the family dinner from hell, keep Zane's true identity under wraps, and master her rebellious magic? Or will this be her last Winter Solstice hurrah?

One thing's for sure: Normal holidays are for suckers, and Frankie's just getting started.

Comatose merman. Amorous vampire. Rabbit-conjuring doctor. Just another Valentine's Day for our favorite chaos witch.

Frankie's idea of romance? Not watching her boyfriend Zane play Sleeping Beauty while a love-sick vampire tries to woo her with roses and bubbly. Talk about a thorny situation.

With Zane down for the count and no magical cure in sight, Frankie's more likely to be caught dead than caught in a candlelit dinner. Unless it's to strangle the ever-persistent Dominik. Hey, a girl's gotta have hobbies.

But Frankie's not just any damsel in distress. Armed with a hodgepodge of powers she's collected like cosmic souvenirs, she's ready to kick ass, take names, and maybe accidentally rewrite reality. Again.

The mission? Wake up Zane, unmask the would-be murderer, and try not to turn Dominik into a toad. All while dodging a doctor whose idea of bedside manner involves pulling rabbits out of thin air.

Will Frankie save her man, solve the mystery, and survive Valentine's Day without committing vampicide? Or is she doomed to spend the holiday in funeral black with a side of undead admirer?

One thing's certain: Cupid's got nothing on this witch, and normal was never an option.

Tropical "paradise". Jailbreak shenanigans. Shotgun wedding from hell. Just another day in paradise for our favorite disaster witch.

Frankie Bonny's idea of a vacation? Storming a supernatural Alcatraz called All Hallows Keep. Breaking in should be a cakewalk, right? Wrong. So very, very wrong.

Nothing says "Welcome to Paradise" like tripping over a corpse. Throw in more bodies than a zombie convention, trigger-happy shifter guards, and a Betty White doppelganger spiking the wedding punch, and you've got Frankie's idea of a good time.

But our girl's not flying solo. She's packing a motley crew that makes the Avengers look like amateurs:

Three leather-clad vampires (because one's never enough)
A grandma with a furry little problem
An explosives expert (what could go wrong?)
One smoking hot merman
Her mouthy Jack Russell familiar, Dex
And... a hamster. (Don't ask.)

Mission impossible: Spring the innocent, solve the murders, and avoid becoming permanent residents of supernatural Sing Sing. All while dodging a surprise trip down the aisle.

Will Frankie and her band of misfits pull off the great escape? Or is this tropical "getaway" about to become a permanent staycation?

Hold onto your hat, sunshine. Normal vacations are for suckers, and Frankie's just getting started.

Have you ever wondered what happened to those characters that appear briefly in a series, only to then be left alone to get on with their lives?

HEELS AND A TIARA
Ever wondered what Brenda was up to before she joined forces with Sam and Jennie in Friday Night
Fever? She was busy working as a bikini-clad Gold Coast Meter Maid. It’s only a stepping stone, but a big one.

OUT OF BOUNDS
We revisit Janey and Maria, those good Italian girls who helped Sam deal to ‘Salami Boy’ in Friday Night Fever. And with major consequences if their mama finds out the cops are after them.

MAID IN CHELSEA
Get to know Vivienne and find out why an intelligent woman is stuck working as a general dogsbody and nanny to a spoiled purple poodle. She’d have to be on the run from something truly terrible, wouldn’t she?

GOLD DIGGER
Join Stef as she puts all that training from Eadie to good use. Lucky for this strapping Cockney girl, she strikes it rich in more ways than one. And of course she takes care of her old mentor in the process.

Dead witch. Rogue shifter genes. Overzealous magical cop. Just another day in the life of our favorite chaos-magnet.

Frankie's idea of a getaway? Fleeing to the realm of the Werealls before her newfound shifter blood turns her into the world's snarkiest cat. But hey, at least it's not a theme park.

With a dead witch on her conscience (but not on her rap sheet, thank you very much) and Officer Buzzkill hot on her tail—literally—Frankie's got more problems than a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

Nana Peg says run. The magical po-po says freeze. And Frankie? She's just trying not to hack up a furball while clearing her name.

The mission: Dodge the cops, unmask the real killer, and avoid turning into Garfield's sassy cousin. All while outrunning the curse of the blue moon. No pressure, right?

Will Frankie solve the murder mystery and keep her whiskers clean? Or is she destined for a life of litter boxes and laser pointers?

Strap in, sugar. Normal's not in Frankie's vocabulary, and she's about to give 'cat and mouse' a whole new meaning.

Surprise scales. Death curses. Merman family drama. Just another day at the beach for our favorite fish-out-of-water witch.

Frankie's idea of making waves? A bubble bath, not sprouting a tail bigger than her ego. But hey, who needs legs when you can breathe underwater, right?

Just as she's getting used to her new sushi-adjacent lifestyle, Zane drops a bombshell—or rather, a cursed seashell. Note to self: Maybe don't pick up shiny, death-infused objects from the ocean floor. Oops.

Cue floating corpses, because why have a relaxing swim when you can have a murder mystery? With Zane potentially next on the chopping block, Frankie's diving headfirst into danger. Destination? Zane's Mediterranean home turf.

The catch? His family's expecting a pure-bred witch, not a magical mutt with more sass than sense. Oh, and did we mention the whole "might die horribly" thing?

Mission impossible: Solve the murders, break the curse, and fool Zane's family into thinking she's witch royalty. All while trying not to become fish food.

Will Frankie crack the case and win over her would-be in-laws? Or is she destined to sleep with the fishes—literally?

Dive in, little minnow. Normal's for landlubbers, and Frankie's about to make waves like never before.

"When you say you'd do anything to lose the weight, do you really mean it?"

Desperate people make stupid mistakes, and Marilyn Channing is no exception. Emerging from the wreckage of a messy divorce, she's determined to lose the weight gained from twenty years spent swallowing her pride.

Enter The Vale, a spa nestled deep in the bush, miles from temptation, miles from help. In return, the retreat promises spectacular weight loss and a respite from the chaos of everyday life. It all sounds so lovely and supportive, so deceptively easy.

Marilyn should have read the fine print.

Because more terrifying than what's on the other side of the razor-wire perimeter fence, is Candice Hawkie. As malevolent as she is thin, the spa's manager has tapped into the abyss of humanity's darkest desires, one in which everything has a price, even death.

In a world where the desire to lose weight comes at a cost, what lengths will Marilyn go to for the ultimate transformation? Find out in 'DietVale,' where the scales of fate tip perilously between life and death.

Set in stunning New Zealand, DietVale is a standalone killer thriller that's perfect for those with a taste for the macabre and a decidedly dark sense of humor.

"Difficult to put down, even though in a few places, my stomach turned! But I had to read on.

Jeannie - Goodreads Reviewer

"A dark comedy, with moments of sheer brilliance, a great, disturbing, read." Karen - Goodreads Reviewer

"The writing style is easy to read and humorous. Some of the content is darker than the writing style at first suggests, just a warning for anyone that picks it up.

What’s worse than being framed for murder? For vampire-born matchmaker Eva, this is the least of her worries.

Left in charge of her grandmother’s marriage agency, vampire matchmaker, Eva De Silva, is expecting a peaceful gig. She’s wrong.

On her first night in the hot seat, she gets hit with unexpected visitors. Things only get worse when a dangerous family relic goes missing, and she’s framed for murder. Luckily, she has Dominik Zilonka—her newest client and vampire voted least likely to settle down—on hand to help.

With danger lurking around every corner, Eva must stay sharp to save the business, clear her name and find Dominik a wife, and all while ignoring she’s his perfect match.

Join Eva in a cozy mystery that’s the perfect read for a night in with a warm blanket and a cup of tea.

Detention drama. Assassination attempts. Wedding dress stress. Just another year for our favorite delinquent witch.

Frankie doesn't do higher education. Not when it involves being stuck at Aunt Betty's charm school for magical misfits. Who needs good grades when you've got sass to spare?

Just as she's settling into her role as Hoodoo House's resident troublemaker (detention? More like a badge of honor), someone adds "attempted murder" to the curriculum. Talk about a pop quiz from hell.

With classes suspended and a killer on the loose, Frankie's trading lessons for a chance at sweet, sweet vengeance. Because if this is the same creep who offed her mom? Let's just say detention will be the least of their worries.

Homework: Unmask the murderer, save Aunt Betty, and maybe squeeze in a wedding dress fitting. You know, if there's time between magical mayhem and mortal peril.

Will Frankie crack the case and make it to the altar? Or is she about to become the latest dropout in a very permanent way?

Say "I do" to chaos, buttercup, because normal's for bridesmaids, and Frankie's about to take this magical matchup to a whole new level.

LILY:
Buying the fixer-upper was one of many spur-of-the-moment decisions, but unlike my others, this one seemed wise. That was until I found myself waist-deep in the hallway floorboards. Enter Tyler Vance—hotter than hot and ready to lend a hand. Okay, so it didn't hurt that his junk was at eye level when I first laid eyes on him.

TYLER:
When my boss handed me another charity case, I wasn't expecting much. But when I hammered on the front door of that run-down house, I was knocked senseless by Lily Finnegan, the dark-haired beauty inside. There's something irresistible about a woman who knows her way around tools, especially mine.

KELLY
I know exactly who to blame for my current predicament. Jason Ralph, the no-talent, Aussie, Executive Creative Director at the ad agency I work for. He’s had it in for me from the first day he hung that stupid boomerang on the wall of his corner office and I had the temerity to laugh and call him Cobber.

My parents then throw my life further into turmoil when they go ahead with the renovation of the family vacation home, where I’ve been stuck for lock-down. However, it’s being suckered into working on a 4th of July float that has me joined at the hip to that cocky player, Zac Thomas.

ZAC
The only reason I signed up to work on that float was because I knew it would give me a chance to get to know Kelly Sanderson intimately. I know it’s a long-shot, with her having seen through every other move I’d made. It’s as if the woman is psychic where I was concerned.

And then she has to design a float that will put the space shuttle to shame, being as it’s almost as big. As we race to complete it on time, something strange happens. No longer am I out for a good time. Instead, I want to stick around for a long time.

If you like your romances on the steamier side, you’ll love this series of standalone curvy women, opposites-attract romances. There’s a guaranteed HEA with no cheating and no cliffhangers.

Her working life is a vibrant tapestry of color and fragrance, with the flowers that surround her a source of endless joy. In stark contrast, his world is an uninspiring blur of gray and shadow that leaves him unable to see the beauty in everyday life.

DAISY
When I'd first heard how much my landlord was hiking the rent on the building that housed my florist shop, I'd been furious. Angry enough to tell him what he could do with his lease. In hindsight, it wasn't my finest moment. However, fate had a surprise in store for me—the bargain of a lifetime.

I'm waiting next to the front door of my new premises when the team from Lucky Break Construction arrives. On taking in the building industry's answer to Chippendales, my eyes widen. Could this be the turning point I've been hoping for? When Josh Kendrick finally arrives, I know it is.

JOSH
Once again, I'm running late. It's not my fault I have trouble reading the traffic lights. I'm fine if I take my time, but hurry and I'm as likely to run a red light and kill someone. All thoughts of having an accident crash and burn when I first lay eyes on Daisy Green.

It's a different matter when I take in the ramshackle building before us. While heavy with the detail beloved by the Victorians, to my eyes, it's also a monotonous sea of gray. Fortunately, with Daisy by my side, the future is looking bright.

If you like your romances on the steamier side, you’ll love this series of standalone curvy women, opposites-attract romances. There’s a guaranteed HEA with no cheating and no cliffhangers.

A dream flip turned on its head, a body insulated than most homes, and the bomb squad on speed dial? Could this flip be a stone dead flop?

Henry thought he'd hit the jackpot with his fixer-upper, but that was before he uncovered a body hidden in one wall. There wasn't a chance the guy had gone gentle into that good night. Kicking and screaming and without teeth and fingerprints was Henry's summation.

The other thing he'd unearthed on reporting his grisly find was a decades -old vendetta. One that saw him at odds with Police Chief Stan Baker, the guy heading up the investigation, and the jerk determined to charge Henry with the murder. But why? Because this went way past high school bullying.

Lucky for Henry, he wasn't alone in trying to clear his name, with Jed his offsider, lawyer Belinda Wanamaker, and decrepit private investigator Ervine Wallace along for the ride.

Would the place be a flip or a flop? Or would it prove to be a killer investment?

"Could you take a life to save your own?"

Talented artist Paige Masters is trapped in a prison of her own choosing. It doesn’t matter that it’s architecturally designed with stunning views, it’s still a prison.

With de facto partner, Greg Walker, chipping away at her self-worth, she needs to get out while she still can. Away from the sniping, the comments on her mental health, her appearance and, most damaging of all, her art.

If he takes that, she’s got nothing.

Without friends or family thanks to a flurry of no-shows or Greg insulting them, Paige is on her own. So, when in a bizarre twist of fate she’s gifted someone else’s life, she doesn’t think twice. Dumped on an island with eleven strangers, she finds herself in the middle of the top-rated reality TV show, Natural Selection.

Week one and thanks to the show’s much-touted THERE’S NOWHERE TO HIDE slogan, Paige is close to losing her mind.

Week two and the biggest challenge isn’t losing her mind, it’s losing her life.
