About the author

Pearl writes for the love of words and often compares herself to a ballerina performing to an empty theatre. Reader reviews are the sound of the distant audience and each one is greatly appreciated.

Flitting between genres ensures Pearl's stories are always fresh and exciting. She has a wide ranging and eclectic author list from chick lit, historical romance, to science fiction and the paranormal.

Pearl has enjoyed success, in the past, with short story fiction, winning some national competitions. Her articles and stories have been published in popular magazines, both fiction and non-fiction, but in recent years she has concentrated on full length works.


She enjoys researching the past and is particularly interested in the First and Second World Wars, where many of her historical romances are set. She also loves the freedom of writing science fiction, but likes to construct her stories around scientific facts or theories.

Reviews

[Anna · Rating 2 out of 5]

My biggest arrrggghhh in books is were two characters are talking together and constantly name each other: 'Bah blah bah, Pam.' Yes, blah blah blah, Laurie.' But Pam, blah blah blah.' 'Oh Laurie, blah blah blah.' It does my sodding head in.

Add in a large dollop of twee and a blaringly obvious reveal, and you get this, a drippy bit of fluff.

Not as good as some of this author's other books (eg A Snowdrop's Promise) but a good read flipping between present day & wartime
