Hello!! My question is: Did Darian and Ash ever go back to visit Cambridge together? And, did Ash ever dedicate a book to Darian? Thank you! Congratulations on your new book release! I haven't read the Arden St. Ives series yet but it's next on my list.

Thank you so much for the congratulations - I hope you enjoy Ardy's story :)
I know this probably sounds a weird ... but I sort of don't really think about books beyond the end of the narrative. I feel at that the point the story belongs to everyone, not just the writer. So my answer to those questions would be as valid yours.
I guess ... hmm. I'm not sure if they'd ever go back to Cambridge. I think they both might have too many bad memories of their time there, and while sometimes you want to over-write bad things with good ones, sometimes you just want to leave that shit in the past. And Ash is as self-conscious about his books as I am about mine (although I have much less self-loathing about writing genre than he does!) so if he did dedicate a book to Darian it would be in an oblique way that nobody would recognise (except Darian, of course).

I have read and listened to both the Billionaire’s and Glitterland books and I have to say the books were brilliant and perfect, that being said, when can we expect the third Billionaire book to come out in print as well as audio? And I want to tell you thank you for writing wonderful stories that make me both laugh and cry at the same time!!!!
