Summary: “So, Georgia Hayden, how do you plan to convince me to do an interview?”
Quinn Masters lost his wife thirteen years ago in a tragic accident, leaving him a widowed father to a daughter, and he decides to leave New Zealand for England.
Georgia Hayden is a divorced mother and a business reporter for a local newspaper.
Georgia has known Quinn for years and is asked to interview him when he decides to move back home with his now teenaged daughter.
When they meet again, there is a mutual attraction. Yet they're both gun-shy, for their own reasons.
If they can find a way past their respective issues, they may find love is lovelier the second time around.

Notes about book: Published in September 2016.
You'd think romance would be the easiest genre to write for. Trust me, it's not. Having said that, this was a fun story to write. One of the things I really love is Quinn's relationship with his daughter, and the relationship he builds with Georgia's little boy. I love kids although they can be fair little horrors at times (sadly I haven't been blessed with any). Another thing I love doing in my books is bringing in humour. Like Quinn's daughter teases him about the fact that he's nearly burned down the house several times - the man cannot cook and is pretty much the absent-minded professor.
I adore the cover. When my friend was creating the cover, we talked about the setting (it's set in Auckland, NZ) and I mentioned the skytower as a well-known landmark. She wanted to get some pics of it during the day and I told her during the day it looks pretty boring, but at night, with the way they light it up, it's beautiful. So she incorporated that into the cover.
BTW - if you are interested in getting covers done, I thoroughly recommend my friend. Her skill is amazing. She has created all my covers. The link to her website is above.
NOTE: I have two more books to post, but I'll keep to the once a week schedule.
