Today is the official cover and synopsis reveal for April Fools (April, #2)
This is book 2 of 2 and does not have a cliffhanger!
I have been so excited to share it with the world!! My good friend Emma Hart designed it for me a couple of months back and I absolutely love it!!
I'm still writing the book (this thing called 'real life' keeps happening, weird huh?) but I'm hoping to release it in December! Stay tuned for more info.
You can add it to your TBR list on Goodreads here.

Without further ado, here it is.........

Love. Hate. Fear. Fate.

All four letter words.

All consuming.

Naked to the eye, they have the power to control the heart and destroy the soul.

April Adams is about to experience them like never before.

When everything in April's life goes up in smoke, she is faced with some life changing decisions.

Join April as she continues her journey of love and loss.

April #2 Extended Teaser!!!

To celebrate reaching 1000 followers on Twitter, I am sharing an exclusive teaser from April Book 2!! I will be revealing the title, cover and synopsis in the next few weeks so stay tuned!!

Enjoy ;)

"Are you ready for desert?"

I sat up, "Oooh, we're having desert?"

He raised his eyebrow and I immediately understood what that meant.

Communication by eyebrow.

"Ah ha, that kind of desert."

"If you mean the delicious kind then yes. I've heard that it's your favourite."

"Well you've heard right."

He gave me a cocky grin, "I don't blame you...it's just so smooth and creamy."

Two can play that game.

"I love how it melts in my mouth" I replied, trying to keep a straight face.

"Oh really? I need a demonstration." He stood up and walked towards the kitchen. A few seconds later, he reappeared holding something behind his back.

"What are you hiding?" I asked.

"Your desert, of course."

I narrowed my eyes, "I'm starting to think that we've just been talking about two different things."

He shook his head and revealed the tub of chocolate body paint.

I laughed, "We are so not doing this."

"We so are."

"You're crazy" I told him.

"Crazy for you."

"Stop trying to sweet talk me."

He winked, "Good one. I see what you did there, sweet talk...chocolate. Now take off your clothes."

"But how will you know if I'm just using you for your chocolate?"

He slowly sauntered towards me, never once taking his eyes away from mine. My heart began to race as he bent down and whispered in my ear, "I'll take the risk if you take off your clothes."

"Deal" I replied, before pulling my top up and over my head. I wriggled out of my jeans making sure that I never broke eye contact with him. It was pretty pathetic how turned on I could get just by looking at him. His intense glare ignited something deep inside of me. It was like there was a circuit running from his eyes straight to my crotch.

As the seconds ticked by, it was quite obvious that we were in some kind of competition, both refusing to be the one to look away first.

I hated losing.

I raised my eyebrow, challenging him, as I unfastened my bra and let it fall to the floor. He took a deep breath and I watched the torment in his eyes.

This was easy.

"It's okay, you can look" I said, innocently.

"You play dirty."

"Just how you like it."

April Showers Swag!!

Some of my swag arrived today!! I love it!! My postcards and Team Isaac T-shirt which is featured in the book!!

Wednesday, 24 July 2013

Cliffhangers...

Just wanted to share this with you...

"There is something to celebrate about the cliffhanger, which makes visible the storyteller’s connection to his audience—like a bridge made out of lightning. They dare you to keep believing. If you trust the creator, you take that dare, and keep going."

So to conclude, please take the dare ;)

April has always been a big believer of fate, but will she learn that she's in control of her own destiny before it's too late?

Join April as she embarks on a life changing journey of love and loss, which will have you laughing and crying until the very end.

April Showers has a NEW cover!

Yesterday, I found out that somebody else is using the exact same stock photo as me for their book cover. This book is also New Adult and is due for release two weeks after mine.

I have worked extremely hard on my debut novel and I want to try and keep it as unique as possible. It was a difficult decision for me but I have decided to change my cover.

So with the help of my good friend Emma Hart, we have created a new cover which I LOVE. It is sexy and sophisticated and I hope you all agree.

It is the official cover reveal this Saturday 1st June. I would love your help spreading the word so that everybody knows what is happening with April Showers and there is no confusion. If you are a blogger and would like to help with the cover reveal, please sign up using the link below.

I am excited to share the new cover with you and I am even more excited for April Showers to be released in less than 3 weeks time!! :)
