Book Blurb
Theirs was a marriage made in heaven, a marriage meant to last forever or so they thought.
A once-perfect marriage was thrown into a fragile state as a result of tiny whispers, and an unfortunate encounter causes the marriage to collapse. The once happy couple separate and a heartbroken Leilani returns home to London. And then out of the blue, Folarin’s family needs Leilani’s help and she must return to her ex-husband’s side. A series of unfortunate events have brought them together again and Folarin and Leilani must come to terms with the realisation, that somebody, somewhere was wrong. As they spend more time together, falling in love seems inevitable; even though one of them is promised to another, they must find a way to learn to trust and forgive each other in other to move on.
Will Folarin be able to trust Leilani?
Will Leilani be able to forget the pain of their first marriage?
Will they both believe in second chances?

Excerpt
Folarin wasn’t surprised Leilani had hung up on him yesterday.
He had expected her to be angry and yes, she was right to be angry, but still, he was angry with himself for calling her and even more annoyed that she hung up on him.And he was also a little bit tipsy.
Damn Leilani.
All she had to do was listen to him, was that so difficult to do? He got to his car, a sleek black BMW X6, and fumbled with his keys, cursing when they dropped from his hands. Placing his left arm on the bonnet for balance, he bent down to look for his keys.
He located them by his feet and gave a whoop of delight. Straightening up, he opened the door on the driver’s side and got in. He squinted. Everything looked blurred. But he could see the wide road before him, so he was good to go.
Starting the engine, Folarin gripped the steering wheel and drove out of the restaurant premises, his eyes focused on the road before him.
He had only gone a few miles when he ran a red light.
“He didn’t hear people screaming and he didn’t see the truck coming until it rammed into the passenger side of his car. The impact lifted his car, and it rolled over a couple of times, the windscreen shattering as the car tumbled down the poorly lit street, finally coming to a stop at the end of the road.
As his life flashed before him, Leilani was the last person he thought of just before the airbag deployed in his face.
And then he blacked out.

Hi everyone,
It’s release day for Mean Girls in Danish, aka Hede Dromme, and I couldn’t be happier! I still loooooove that cover! It’s out in eBook and hardback format and should be coming in audiobook format soon. It should also be available in Danish libraries in a few months time, depending on how quickly it goes through their approval system. So, you know the drill – if you prefer to read in Danish or know someone who does, please let them know about this steamy read!
Here’s the blurb:
Adele Blackthorne er en stor pige. Hun har former. Hun ved det, og hun er blevet drillet med det hele sit liv, men er nået til den erkendelse, at hun er ligeglad. Det kan godt være, at hun er buttet på den lækre måde, men hun er også sund. Meget sundere end de overlegne kvinder på idrætscentret, der peger og stirrer og kommer med onde kommentarer. Adele trækker på skuldrene og nyder at kaste hemmelighedsfulde blikke efter centrets lækre livredder, Oliver.
Oliver finder det svært ikke at blande sig, da mobningen af Adele tager til. Han vil helst ikke ende i problemer med sin chef, men samtidig kan han ikke holde ud at se, hvordan Adele bliver behandlet. Især fordi han synes, at hun er hverken tyk eller grim, men en virkelig tiltrækkende kvinde, og han vil gerne lære hende meget bedre at kende.
Hede drømme er en livsbekræftende bully romance kombineret med tropen ’big beautiful woman’.

Blurb
It’s January 1887, a few days before the opening of the audacious new operetta “Ruddigore”. As if librettist William Gilbert doesn’t have enough to worry about, one of the D’Oyly Carte stars breaks his leg doing the horn pipe. Fortunately, the understudy Frank Wilson turns out to be immensely talented, as well as devilishly handsome. Wilson has set his heart on Gilbert – and he’s not going to be swayed from his course.

Excerpt:
Opening night was tomorrow, and everyone seemed to be eager and ready. So why did he feel so weighed down, so anxious and exhausted?
It was past ten when a knock woke him from a doze that must have crept up on him despite the fear of nightmares. “Yes, who is it?”
His visitor didn’t wait to be invited in. “It’s me, William. It’s Frank.”
Gilbert bolted upright, anger providing him with sudden energy. Red boiled behind his eyelids. “What are you doing here? I can’t have you here. Get out, this instant.”
The younger man shut the door. He sidled over in Gilbert’s direction. Gilbert backed away. “I needed to see you, William. To talk to you, about the other afternoon. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have pushed you so hard.”
“Never mind. Just go away now. Please, go away.”
“I apologize for being so rude, so insensitive. I’ve been wanting you so long, it just seemed natural to say it. To show you. I should have realized how new this would be for you, how shocking.” With theatrical grace, Wilson glided to his knees in front of Gilbert, his head bowed. “Forgive me, please.”
Gilbert gazed down at Frank’s golden curls, gleaming in the harsh electric light. He smelled the man’s floral cologne. Damn, his heart was beating like thunder, and there was an uncomfortable tightness in his crotch. Damn, damn, damn.
“Get up,” he said gruffly. “Show a bit of self-respect, Wilson.”
“Not until I hear you say that I’m forgiven.”
“Fine, fine, I forgive you, now get up and go.”
Gilbert didn’t understand how he did it, but all at once Frank was standing in front of him, face to face, close, much too close. He was taller than Gilbert and had to bend to whisper.
“Thank you, William.” Then Gilbert felt the man’s mouth on his own. He felt Frank’s tongue toying with his mustache, tickling, probing, tentative at first, then bold and confident as Gilbert opened his lips.
Gilbert’s resistance melted. Frank’s arms encircled him, and Gilbert reciprocated, stirred by the sensation of strength in those young limbs. Frank tasted of horehound and tobacco, masculine and yet sweet. Frank kissed him eagerly, passionately, and from some place he had not known existed, Gilbert responded with equal passion.
He felt the hard, hot lump that he knew was Frank’s cock, grinding against his thigh. Somehow this did not terrify or appall him. He welcomed it, exquisitely aware that his own cock was swollen and sensitive.
The dark clouds that had haunted him for the past two days dissolved in the brilliance of Frank’s kiss. Gilbert did not think, did not worry or reason or judge. For the first time in a very long time, he simply allowed himself to feel.
