London waitress Pippa Taylor has no interest in horses or country-living. But when she inherits Peace Offering, a hopeless racehorse, she embarks on a career change in order to see her late uncle’s wish to run him in the Grand National come true. * But having talked her way into a job as racing secretary to a champion National Hunt trainer and moved to the West Country, Pippa finds herself faced with more daunting obstacles than even the Grand National can throw at her. * Most take the form of Jack Carmichael, her moody boss. Although easy on the eye, he’s certainly not easy on the ear. And after a Christmas they would both rather forget, danger and deception threaten Pippa’s life in the country. As her time at Aspen Valley Racing Stables draws to its conclusion, she discovers Peace Offering is not the only thing she must fight to keep. ***** ‘My favourite of this author’s books – the romance stayed with me for ages.’ – Amazon reviewer ***** ‘Really fell in love with the characters... look forward to reading more.’ – Amazon reviewer ***** ‘Would definitely recommend for a good holiday read.’ – Amazon reviewer

The Glass is a contemporary Gothic Horror ghost story. Christopher Higson procures an ornate, cheval-glass mirror amongst the cultural carrion at a house clearance on the ancient and heirless Bradley Estate, a gift for his wife, Maria, to help save their dying marriage. Their young son, William, caught in the crossfire in the battle between his parents, suddenly finds an imaginary friend, Jenny, and the only time he sees her is in the mirror. Amongst the blood and broken glass, Christopher and Maria try to save their marriage, and themselves, as they discover the horrible truth about William's imaginary friend. Does anyone know the damage we inflict upon our children? Innocently or deliberately, ignorantly or purposefully, does anyone see anything more than themselves in a mirror? There is no horror except that which we create for ourselves.
