It's always a big day when you publish a book. A combination of satisfaction at having accomplished it, after a significant gestation period, mirrored by the equal and opposing terror at opening it up to criticism.

The achievement of finishing this book is made all the more poignant that it was achieved at a time my father was diagnosed with terminal cancer and subsequently passed away. Writing was a window of escapism at what was (and still is) a really tough time.

Still - now you have it. It's a shift from my previous novels - a foray into New Adult. I'll let you tell me what you think - I know you will.

Be happy - remember life is perilously short
