Kerrie Noor's books

Sheryl's Last Stand: A bitter sweet comedy (Bellydancing and beyond Book 1)

Broke, homeless, and addicted to chocolate, will Sheryl chase her dream or remain tied to her mother's purse strings?

Sheryl, on the wrong side of thirty-five, has seen better days. She has lost her job, her home, and the ability to say no to her mother: a woman with as much sensitivity as a comedian.

Sheryl, a soft touch, is wilting in a sea of whiskey and American Wrestling. She spends her nights rooting for Johnstone, a wrestler as believable as Die Hard.

Until Sheryl discovers belly dancing. 

Sheryl is a natural at belly dancing and dreams of performing in the sort of costume that would have her mother choking on her “you’re too fat” comments. So when the wrestlers come to town, Sheryl grabs her chance. She wins tickets to the wrestling event and the opportunity to not only meet Johnstone, but belly dance.

Sheryl feels hopeful, until her mother finds out.

Will Sheryl grab her chance or toss her coin belt along with her dreams, to the wind?

At one time, Nefertiti was a dancer people queued to see. Now she runs a belly dancing class in the middle of nowhere, and the numbers have dwindled. Disappointed Nefertiti turns to her partner and ‘rock’, but he has other plans.
Dropped like a hot potato, Nefertiti feels alone until she stumbles across a bag lady with a past the locals gossip about. After fifty-five years of self-absorption, Nefertiti finds herself caring for a woman who spends her days singing off-key.
Until the council steps in.
Nefertiti finds herself torn between the bag lady and the council, and if she plays things the wrong way, she could lose more than her dance class.

With a funeral befitting a sitcom, sibling rivalry on par with a Shakespearean tragedy, and a dying mother's impossible wish; Mavis and Lumpy’s relationship crumbles like a burnt chapatti.

Steven tries to reassure her, but living next door to a mother as critical as a gymnastics judge has squashed Sheryl's confidence. She can’t even get up in the morning, let alone decide on a name for her daughter.

Steven finds a home, miles from anywhere, and persuades Sheryl it's for the best. However, a modern kitchen doesn’t take away the guilt Sheryl feels for ripping her daughter away from her grandmother as ruthlessly as a wax job.

Sheryl retreats into the lost teenager of her past until, that is, her mother needs her help.
