STARSTRUCK: Somewhere to call Home
Some people will tell you they have fairies at the bottom of their garden… Mia and Becca have little aliens at the bottom of theirs!
The Starstruck series tells the story of Mia, Becca, and the six little people who change their lives. It’s a contemporary fairytale with a kick, something a little different, and very much for adults only!
But how did it all start? This is episode 1: Somewhere to call Home –
Mia Haines is twenty-five, and living a life that’s going precisely to plan. A senior technician at Starstruck Technologies in London, her career-dominated world is just where she expects it to be. Fate and the unpredictable have no place in Mia’s existence.
Or perhaps that should be ‘had’.
Five years ago, on her final evening at Cambridge University, she meets Becca Wright. Beautiful and sexy, she is everything Mia believes she could never be. The uncrowned queen of Cambridge, everyone wants to be seen with Becca, and she appears to milk it for all it is worth. But on this night, fate takes a hand. Even though for Mia, such unpredictable things don’t exist.
Unable to cope with what happens between them, she walks away. They will not meet again for five years.
One year ago, and back on her carefully-planned life-schedule, Mia buys her first home, blissfully unaware the house already has six tenants living there in secret. And now, one year later, as she wakes on a sunny Saturday morning, she’s still blissfully unaware that fate and the unpredictable are about to turn her weekend, and her world, inside out...

My wish is to take you on a journey to somewhere you’ve never been before. And on the way, make you smile, surprise you, and bring a tear or two to your eyes (good tears!) If I can do that, I’m a happy guy.
I’m an English author who doesn’t write regular. ‘Regular’ is fine, but it’s not what you’ll find on our journey. Vibrant, fast-paced plots wrap around the pleasure and pain of equally-vibrant love stories, woven together to bring you the unexpected and fire up your emotions!
I find it difficult to categorize my work into one genre… so I think I might have invented a new one! Fantasy-realism. Fantasy because… well, our journey is as much fantasy as anything, plus shades of the paranormal and some sci-fi. Realism because just about every destination you will visit can be googled! My work is grounded in real settings, but where things are not quite as normal as you might expect! And where, if I’ve done my job right, when you reach your final destination you will sit back and say, ‘Wow… that could have happened to me!’
So you won’t find werewolves existing in strange worlds filled with half-human, half-animal creatures. Many, many other authors are writing those kinds of stories. I prefer to make your journey a unique one… yes, you will meet weird and wonderful characters, some of whom will make you laugh, other who will fill the journey with horror and pure evil. Demons, angels, and the occasional alien will join you as you turn the pages… but so will many characters you can relate to; normal people thrown into abnormal situations.
So please come and join me, embrace the unexpected, and take a ride to places you never knew existed!

Entertaining as heck!
If you enjoy science fiction with a bit of comedy, Then this is the story for you. Filled with enjoyable lead characters and very humorous Little aliens that you can't help but fall in love with. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
