But Blue was never out and he has a child to think about now, so what chance does Josh really have at forgiveness and maybe a second chance? Especially when he has never told the truth about their breakup-even to his best friend, Nicky, who is also Blue's brother-in-law-and when he has demons of his own to face. When Blue gets the wrong idea and shuts him out, Josh falls back on a destructive habit and alienates Nicky. Desperate and alone, can Josh pull himself together and make things right with the people he cares most about in the world? ** A Siren Erotic Romance

About the author

My mother likes to boast that I was reading at the age of three. I'm not sure if that's strictly true but my childhood memories are mostly of being indoors with a book of some description. I distinctly remember having a Ladybird copy (English young children's books) of Dracula so I think my tastes were set quite early. Like a friend once said, while other young girls wanted to be ballerinas, I kind of always wanted to be a vampire.

I grew up in Belgium and went to a multi-national school before moving back to England to get my first degree. Microbiology and Virology... what was I thinking? Naturally I didn't do anything with it, in fact the thought of real life was off putting enough that I went and did another degree straight away. Medical herbalism this time, much better although it was in my final year of this degree that I rediscovered writing. Not sure why I ever stopped because once I started again it became a compulsion.

Once the second degree was finished I was stuck, I didn't want to practice herbalism, I wanted to write... only write. So I got a job in a health food shop and that was the first in a long line of short term jobs to pay the bills while I wrote. Some of them were brilliant though. I met some of my best friends ever when I was a barista in a coffee shop and I got many wonderful books and ideas when I worked in a sex shop... okay not technically a sex shop as we didn't sell porn but still an adult 'toy' shop. During this time I lived with my sister which was also brilliant but made me incredibly lazy. It took nearly five years before I actually wrote a full length, complete novel.

Moving to the other end of the country to live with one of my best friends, and I would go as far as to call her my muse, really kick started the novel writing and now I have several that are complete, although again it took me a while to actually start sending them out. I don't know if other writers feel the same but they're my babies and rejection is extremely painful.

Got in love with Josh and Blue. All the relationships in the book are wonderfull. It is a must read.

The only thing I didn't like was she didn't describe the drawings, the tatoo and other things in the book. And also that it didn't say what happened to Roman's mom.

I only ask: Why does miss Martin take sooooo long to release new books?

[Laura · Rating 2 out of 5]

Too many pages for a story that could be developed on a short book.
