Fifty Books, a Decade of Writing and a Giveaway to Celebrate
Today I’m celebrating a huge personal milestone – the official release of my 50th book for Harlequin Mills&Boon.

Kilmun Church and the Holy Loch
One of my favourite cycle routes, especially in the evening when I’ve been working all day and want to clear my head, is along the side of the Holy Loch, where I’ve got the choice of heading up to Glen Massan (more on that another time) or around the head of the loch to Kilmun.…
