One Little Lie Book Launch

One Little Lie is my third novel to be published, but it's the first time I've had a proper book launch. There were numerous reasons I hadn't opted for a launch, the main one being ... well, NERVES!

It seemed overwhelming just thinking about arranging one, let alone knowing I'd have to be the centre of attention and would have to speak!

My lovely publicist, Sabah Khan, was the one to get the ball rolling this time - and she did a fantastic job organising the launch together with Jon, from my local Waterstones in Newton Abbot.

All I had to do was invite 30 - 40 people. And yes, that was stressful enough! 

As Friday came around, I was a bag of nerves: would people turn up? What if TOO many people turned up? (It's only a small Waterstones), what if it doesn't run smoothly? What if NO ONE wants a signed book?

Well, thanks to my fantastic family and friends, these worries melted away as they walked through the doors on Friday evening at 6.30pm. 



























I had a really good evening, and actually enjoyed it (apart from the speaking part - must work on my public speaking skills!) So I want to give a HUGE thank you to all who attended, to Jon for being a one-man-band and giving out drinks as well as selling books, to my editor Katie Loughnane and publicist Sabah Khan for braving Newton Abbot all the way from London - it meant so much to have you both there, and you were both big hits with my family and friends!  

I feel very lucky to be published by Avon, and even luckier to have such amazing support from my family and friends. Thank you to all who've bought One Little Lie - I'm extremely proud of this book and hope readers enjoy it.

I'll leave you with some photos from the evening (many friends took photos and I think these are a mix from everyone!)

After-launch drinkies!



Lovely evening with Katie, Sabah and my family!


There are many more photos I could add - and I will at a later date! A really enjoyable event - and now I've done one, I think I will be more relaxed about the next launch...!

ONE LITTLE LIE is available in the supermarkets and some Waterstones, independent book shops and Amazon.

Amazon link: ONE LITTLE LIE

And the ebook is a mere 99p for September!

*3 DAYS TO GO*

I can't believe it's only three days until my third novel is published!














I'm beyond thrilled that the paperback will be available in Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda and WHSmith Travel, as well as some Waterstones and independent bookstores from Thursday 6th September.

On Friday evening I'm having a launch (my first!) at my local Waterstones - which is very exciting, if not nerve-wracking! I will post some pictures from that over the weekend.

For my actual publication day I'm going to be celebrating mostly on Twitter and Facebook! But in the evening we're going to Theatre Royal, Plymouth to see War Horse which I'm really looking forward to - it looks amazing.


I've had some great feedback for ONE LITTLE LIE and it's a book I'm very proud of - thank you to all who've played a part in bringing it to publication, and to those who have read and reviewed (either ARCs or the ebook) I'm blessed to have such fabulous support.

You can also pre-order the paperback on Amazon - HERE

And for a limited time the ebook is on offer at the bargain price of 99p! You can download - HERE.
