New Release
A Song for Kitty
A powerful historical fiction set in the years before the First World War – against the backdrop of a tumultuous time where suffragettes fought for the vote, trade unions challenged employers for better pay and conditions and political unrest and war stalked the carefree Edwardian lifestyle. If you liked Downton Abbey you will love A Song for Kitty.
Lily Matthews, an apprentice seamstress and her neighbour Aiden Donnelly, a talented pianist, are in love. They dream of careers in the Music Hall in London. At a suffragette meeting they encounter London Music Hall star Kitty Marion. Will the charismatic Kitty help them to achieve their dreams or destroy their relationship and put their well-being at risk?

“A poignant read”
Nanette Kreitzman, Author
What a wonderful story. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this delightful book. I cried, I laughed and I rooted for a happy ending for Ellie. She’s a strong character and it’s easy to want her to succeed in her career as well as in love. It was lovely to follow her journey from tragedy to joy. If you’re looking for a great read, I cannot recommend Touch highly enough and look forward to more books by this great writer.

SECOND IN THE ELLIE ROSE SERIES
Dilemma
The man she loves is offering his hand and heart. So why is Ellie Rose avoiding the issue?
As Mark’s frustration with her grows, and a new friend brings more confusion, Ellie sees her ideal world begin to unravel.
More used to advising others, when Ellie finds her own fears resurfacing, she wonders if she will ever make peace with the past.
“A beautifully written and richly described book, Dilemma is a charming and heart-warming story of real people with relatable lives…”
Julia Blake, Author
“Dilemma is an intelligent and sensitively written book, a sensitive study of the prolonged effects of grief, and how moving on doesn’t necessarily mean forgetting, or healing.”
Julie Embleton, Author
Third IN THE ELLIE ROSE SERIEs
Bloom
Through the long, hot summer, plans are laid that will change Ellie and Mark's lives forever. Their friends are included, the project seems perfect, and Mark is eager to invest.
With excitement comes risk, and Ellie isn't sure that risk is what she wants right now.
Ellie wants is a family, which isn't happening.
As tensions grow, can Ellie find new balance and contentment, despite the challenges which surround her? Or will the forces for change tear her happiness apart?
“Thank you for sharing this story. Going through the story with Ellie and Mark has really touched me.
I remember all too vividly the fears and anxieties.
That’s me crying again.”

They are for those who reflect on what is in their heart, long to speak their truth, and who know the life they seek is out there.
