Review, Interview, Giveaway: 'Finding Amy' by Phyllis A. Humphrey (2014)

When SABRINA GILMORE attends the funeral of her grandfather in England, she learns the family manor is in foreclosure. She also finds her inheritance is nothing but an old trunk containing, among other things, her childhood doll, Amy. However, Sabrina soon discovers the doll has hidden inside it a jeweled necklace. How did it come to be there, whose is it, and is it valuable? In the process of finding the answers to these questions, Sabrina meets a handsome man, HUGH PENDLETON, who makes a play for her, but also falls prey to a kidnaper and thief who has his own interest in the necklace. This is the exciting story of how Sabrina, a Chicago girl, confronts these problems while at the same time dealing with an Englishman who wants to marry her.
I love discovering new authors and today I have a review of the novel ‘Finding Amy’ which was written by, previously to me unknown, author Phyllis A. Humphrey to share with all of you! Phyllis herself contacted me at the end of 2014 about possibly reviewing her latest release ‘Finding Amy’, which was published by Criterion House last Spring. I did a bit of research and quickly discovered that Phyllis has actually written ten romance novels over the years, so I was quite surprised I hadn’t stumbled upon her work any sooner. Luckily, I received the chance to check out her work and I’m delighted to also share an author Q&A with Phyllis and an exclusive giveaway of one of her novels with all of you; just be sure to scroll down!
Sabrina Gilmore was born an American, but finds herself back in the UK for her grandfather’s funeral and the reading of his will. She once spent a summer at Gilmore Manor, the family country home, and now is her first time back in England since she was a little girl. To her surprise, Sabrina learns she has inherited an old trunk filled with children’s books, dress-up clothes and her old childhood doll named Amy, which she left behind all those years ago. However, inside the doll someone has hidden an expensive necklace and Sabrina has no idea who the necklace belongs to or who put it there. On her search to find the answers to these questions, Sabrina is helped by the handsome British Hugh Pendleton who seems to have fallen for her. But when Sabrina’s hotel room is burgled and she even gets kidnapped, things start to become very serious very quickly…
I have to admit I wasn’t quite sure what to expect of this novel when I started reading it. I personally wasn’t particularly drawn in by the cover and the blurb seemed to promise a mixture of both romance and mystery, but already gave quite a lot of information about the storyline away. However, as soon as I had read the first chapter I was intrigued by the main character Sabrina and I finished the novel in two sittings, constantly wondering what would happen next and who had put that necklace in Sabrina’s doll. The author’s writing style was fast-paced and pleasant to read and there were quite a few twists and turns that managed to hold my attention until the last page.
The storyline includes a good dose of romance between the main character Sabrina and easily likeable Hugh Pendleton, but also includes an intriguing mystery element which made the book feel a bit like a detective novel. I really enjoyed this combination of romance and mystery and it has made me curious about Phyllis A. Humphrey’s other novels. It was a bit of a shame that we didn’t really get to know the characters, particularly Sabrina and Hugh, on a deeper, more detailed, level. I would have loved to have read more about them, their backgrounds, and the things that made them the persons they are. Overall, though, ‘Finding Amy’ is a well-paced, fun, and intriguing read that had me captivated from start to finish. I’m really glad I got the opportunity to discover Phyllis A. Humphrey’s writing and already look forward to reading more of her works in the future!

Rating:8/10

Author interview with Phyllis A. Humphrey!

Can you tell us something about your novel, ‘Finding Amy’? I think of FINDING AMY as "Romance and mystery in London and Paris."
Where did you get the inspiration for your novel? Is it in any way based
on your own personal experiences? I've been to both London and Paris several times and always hoped to set a novel in those great cities.
Can you tell us a bit more about the main character, Sabrina? Sabrina is a woman I think many of us would like to be: resourceful and smart, yet caring and with a sense of humor.
There’s a great cast of supporting characters in the novel as well. Which
character did you most enjoy writing? The hero's "man" Leonard, was fun to write about, because I'd never had one like him in a novel before.
Did you do any particular research for parts of the book? I did a little research about areas in London and used my book about Cockney accents and terms for a few minor characters.
Can you perhaps tell us something about your future plans? Are you
perhaps already working on a next novel? Since I often put elements of suspense or mystery in my romances, I'd like to try straight mystery. In fact I just got a contract for such a book, titled EYEWITNESS, but don't have a publication date yet. If you and your readers want to be informed when this - or my next novel - is available, please send me your names and e-mail addresses. I promise I'll only send book information and won't give your addresses to anyone else. 
Do you have any tips for aspiring writers? After many years of writing, and especially trying to get published, my most important advice is "Never give up." What is the last book you read that you’d like to recommend to others? FOREVER MINE by Carolann Camillo is another romantic-suspense novel that I can heartily recommend.
Which book could you not live without? My favorite novel of all time is REBECCA by Daphne du Maurier. I reread it every few years. And last but not least, if you had to describe ‘Finding Amy’ in just
three words, which words would you pick? My three words would be: romantic, suspenseful, humorous.
Thanks so much, Phyllis!

Review, Interview & Giveaway: 'Love on the Lido Deck' by Barbara Oliverio (2014)

Sharp-witted, always-organized Keira Graham has traded in her high tech career as a systems analyst for the whirlwind world of event planning. As she builds up her fledging business, she learns that her widowed mother has news of her own – she has a serious gentleman caller! Is Keira ready for mom’s new romance?
When she gets a game-changing opportunity to organize a major event on a luxury Caribbean cruise, Keira turns to best pal chef Alexandria D'Agostino to help recruit famous chefs who will offer classes for foodies looking for fun in the sun as they gain cooking know-how. The cruise becomes a rollicking adventure for Keira, her sassy assistant Juliet, the entire D'Agostino clan, Keira's mother and other surprise guests. And has Keira meet her match in charismatic Cruise Director Brennan McCallister, who could have something more than keeping everything shipshape on his mind?
In 2013 I got the chance to read and review author Barbara Oliverio's debut novel 'Love on the Back Burner', a fun read which I ended up really enjoying (click here to read my review). Last year, I was contacted by Barbara again, this time regarding her second novel, 'Love on the Lido Deck.' I straight away liked the sound of this romantic comedy set on a cruise ship and I was lucky enough to receive a review copy (thanks, Barbara!). I looked forward to once again sitting down with one of Barbara's works, in the hope I would enjoy it as much as her debut novel!
Keira Graham used to work as a system analyst but then decided to follow her heart and her passion, resulting in her own event planning business. She is offered the chance to take on her biggest job yet, namely organising a cooking workshop programme on a big Caribbean Cruise. Next to the fact that Keira can take her best friend and well-known chef Alexandria D'Agostino with her, she's also invited to bring her own family and the D'Agostino's to enjoy the cruise. As soon as the group sets foot on the cruise ship, the adventures begin; from Keira trying to find peace with her mother's new boyfriend while trying to deal with all the chefs and their workshops, to her continuously bumping into the slightly annoying but handsome cruise director Brennan McCallister... 
Luckily I was not disappointed by Barbara Oliverio's second book, as 'Love on the Lido Deck' is just as fun and entertaining as her debut novel! I loved the setting of the book; I hadn't read any novels set on a cruise ship before and it was the perfect location for this particular cast of characters and their adventures. In the author's debut novel we were introduced to heroine Alexandria D'Agostino, and in this book the focus lies on her best friend Keira. It was great to get to know some new characters, but it was also wonderful to read more about the D'Agostino family whom it is difficult to not warm to. While this novel can definitely be read as a stand-alone, I do think it adds something if you already know some of the characters and their background stories. 
Next to plenty of main and secondary characters, there are also various storylines to keep the reader interested at all times. I love it when many different storylines are explored and brought together in a novel, and this was definitely the case for this book. Lots of topics are touched upon in a light-hearted way, such as family, friendship and of course a touch of romance as well. A nice little extra is the collection of delicious recipes at the back of the book which I look forward to trying out sometime. Overall, Barbara Oliverio has again delivered a fun, easy-going and thoroughly enjoyable romantic comedy; I can't wait to see what she comes up with next! Rating:

8/10

Author interview with Barbara Oliverio!

I'm really excited to welcome Barbara Oliverio to the blog today to answer some questions about her lovely new novel 'Love on the Lido Deck', her future plans and her own favourite reads!
Can you tell us something about your new novel, ‘Love on the Lido Deck’? Keira Graham is looking for a career break in her first big project as an event planner on a foodie-themed cruise. As a complication, she learns that her widowed mother has a questionable new beau. This sets the stage for mom and the new beau, along with Keira’s best friend and family, to join the cruise where sapphire eyed cruise director Brennan McAllister is on deck for shipboard romance and revelry. 
Where did you get the inspiration for your novel? Is it in any way based on your own personal experiences? 'Love on the Lido Deck' is the follow-up to my debut novel 'Love on the Back Burner' and follows the best friend of the protagonist of that novel on her own adventures. The idea came to me after going on several cruises and learning about the idea of specialty cruises. I thought it would be fun to have a character involved in a cruise dedicated to foodies.
Can you tell us a bit more about the main protagonist, Keira?  She is somewhat of a perfectionist and is accustomed to being in control of any situation. She was matched with melodramatic Alexandria (star of the first novel) as roommates in college, and through the years they have been two halves of the same coin through many adventures. 
There’s a great cast of supporting characters in the novel as well. Which character did you most enjoy writing?  I found Keira’s mother, who has developed a relationship with a (slightly) younger man, joyful to write. I wanted to show that this type of relationship can be based on love and respect and not something less wholesome.
Did you do any particular research for this book?  My husband and I took a fantastic cruise on the largest cruise ship in the world, where I was able to interview some of the crew, and in addition, I tested and retested all the recipes in the book.
Can you perhaps tell us something about your future plans? Are you perhaps already working on a next novel?  I am in the middle of a new story that I am loving! The protaganist is having a travel adventure, and the supporting characters in this one are so much fun to write.
Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?  My number one tip is always this: READ, READ, READ. The more you read, the better your own writing will be. The other thing I always say is WRITE, WRITE, WRITE. Contrary to what you see in the movies – the muse generally doesn’t miraculously strike in the middle of the night. You need to exercise that writing muscle!
What is the last book you read that you’d like to recommend to others?  I just finished 'All the Light We Cannot See', by Anthony Doerr, on the plane home from vacation. Loved it!!
Which book could you not live without?  Well, I have to cheat here a bit. The Bible is very important to me for a lot of reasons as I think it should be to everyone. So I think that one is a “gimme”, and also say I would give away almost every book on my shelves except my Jane Austen anthology. I’ll read something out of that at least once a year.
And last but not least, if you had to describe ‘Love on the Lido Deck’ in just three words, which words would you pick? Uplifting. Romantic. Laugh-out-Loud. Thanks to the amazing Barbara, I can give away 2 e-book copies of her lovely novels to one lucky winner! This giveaway is open INTERNATIONALLY (end date is the 24th of January 2015), so be sure to follow the instructions on the Rafflecopter giveaway below! Good luck to everyone! :)

Giveaway: 'L'Amour Actually' by Melanie Jones!

After one particularly bad day at work, marketing executive and confirmed city girl Melanie Jones decides to give up her old life in search of something new and simpler in South West France. With little knowledge of the country, even less of the language and just the memory of a disastrous school French exchange and a few day trips to Calais, she embarks on her adventure with a suitcase full of optimism and not a little bit of naivety. After all, how different can life in France be? After a series of adventures with skirt-ripping tractors, handsome twin farmers, celebrity not-quite-beens, unusual toilets and a bonkers ex-pat community, all topped up, of course, with lashings of rosé, Melanie begins to discover that her new life in France isn’t quite what she’d thought it would be.
It has been a year since the publication of Melanie Jones' fabulous novel 'L'Amour Actually'. I received the opportunity to review the book last year, and I thoroughly enjoyed it (click here to read my review)! To celebrate, Melanie Jones is giving away a signed copy of 'L'Amour Actually' and I'm really excited to say that this giveaway is open internationally! Good luck to all of you, you've got until this upcoming Sunday to enter!

Blog Tour: 'No-One Ever Has Sex On a Tuesday' by Tracy Bloom (2014)

  Never has a late-night stand led to such chaos!
Childhood sweethearts Matthew and Katy agree they must never see each other ever again after they end up in bed together following a school re-union.
So all is forgotten...until eight months later when a shock meeting at an antenatal class forces them to confront the fact that Matthew could be the father of Katy's baby. Oblivious to the mayhem unfolding, Matthews highly strung wife frets over giving birth to twins and Katy's much younger boyfriend refuses to take fatherhood seriously.
Love and life are messy but Katy and Matthew take things to a whole new level as deep emotions begin to resurface and hormones run riot. How will they navigate their way through this almighty pick-up?
Every once in a while you come across a novel everyone else seems to have read or to be reading at that particular moment, and you can almost taste the excitement. Well, that’s exactly what happened to me with Tracy Bloom’s novel ‘No-One Ever Has Sex On a Tuesday.’ The book was named Best Author Published Read at the Festival of Romance in 2013, became a best-seller and has already been published in six countries. Needless to say, I couldn’t say ‘yes!’ quickly enough when I was asked to be a part of the blog tour for the paperback release of ‘No-One Ever Has Sex On a Tuesday’ (21st of April). I also got the chance to give away one copy of the book, so be sure to scroll down to be in with a chance of winning a copy of Tracy Bloom’s novel!
Katy is a thirty-six-year-old successful businesswoman living together with her slightly younger boyfriend Ben, who is a PE teacher. They have fun together and don’t talk too much about their future as a couple, which is fine by both of them. Until Katy discovers she is pregnant. Besides the fact that she and Ben have never even discussed having kids together, there’s another tiny problem: Katy doesn’t know 100% sure who the father is. During a school reunion a few months earlier, Katy bumped into her teenage sweetheart Matthew, who broke her heart back in the day. Somehow they end up in bed together, and go their separate ways the next morning. However, when they meet again a few months later, but this time at antenatal classes, where Matthew is together with his pregnant wife Alice and Katy with her boyfriend Ben, things start to get a bit tricky...
This was such a fun and enjoyable read! I fell in love with the story after having read the first chapter (the jokes about Fanny made me laugh out loud) and I just wanted to keep on reading, which resulted in me finishing the book within two days. The characters are a brilliant mix: Katy is a great protagonist but not your average chick lit heroine, Ben was laugh-out-loud funny, and Matthew is the handsome guy I couldn’t help but develop a small crush on. I also particularly want to mention Daniel, Katy’s gay best friend, who is such a vibrant and absolutely hilarious character; I wouldn’t mind an entire book just about him and his adventures!
What I particularly enjoyed is that the book focuses on Katy’s pregnancy, both the positive and negative sides, but also deals with other aspects, such as friendship and the difficult of being in a relationship. I couldn’t predict what was going to happen which also made me curious to see how the story would eventually enfold. Tracy Bloom has a great talent; her writing is so easy to get through and she really knows what a romantic comedy entails. ‘No-One Ever Has Sex On a Tuesday’ is an incredibly funny, addictive, and thoroughly enjoyable read that will leave you with a large smile on your face. I already can’t wait for the sequel that’s coming up in 2015! Rating:

     8,5/10   For more information about this book: Amazon.co.uk / Amazon.com / Goodreads       Thanks to the publisher for providing me with a review copy in exchange for an honest review.

Blog Tour (including Q&A and giveaway): 'It Felt Like a Kiss' by Sarra Manning (2014)

Meet Ellie Cohen, one of the most perfect girls in London. Ellie manages a swank Mayfair gallery, but it’s her life that’s a real work of art. Great job, really good hair, loyal friends, loving family. It’s only her succession of lame duck boyfriends that ruin the picture. Oh, and the world-famous rock-star father she’s never met, who won’t even acknowledge her existence.
Then Ellie’s perfect life is smashed to pieces when her secret is sold to the highest bidder and her name, face (and pictures of her bottom) are splashed across the tabloids. Suddenly everyone thinks she’s a gold-digging, sex-crazy, famewhore.
Enter David Gold. Charming and handsome David Gold. On paper he’s even more perfect than Ellie, if only he wasn’t her father’s ruthlessly ambitious lawyer whose job is to manage the crisis – and her. He certainly doesn’t think that Ellie’s the innocent party and she doesn’t trust him at all. So why is it that every time they’re alone together, damage limitation is the last thing on their minds?
The cover of Sarra Manning’s new release ‘It Felt Like a Kiss’ is without a doubt my favourite cover of 2014 so far and one of the prettiest covers I’ve ever seen! From the sparkling colours to the lovely couple holding hands to the London skyline in the background... It’s amazing! Sarra’s novel ‘Adorkable’ was one of the books everyone was talking about when I started blogging at the start of 2013. While a copy of ‘Adorkable’ is still lying on my to-read pile, as soon as a review copy of ‘It Felt Like a Kiss’ arrived on my doormat I quickly finished the book I was reading at that moment and couldn’t wait to get stuck in and read all about Ellie and her adventures!
Ellie Cohen is a twenty-something who is leading a close-to-perfect life in London: she has a great job at a Mayfair gallery, brilliant friends, and a loving family. The only downside is her lack of luck in love; somehow she only manages to get together with ‘lame ducks’ instead of bumping into Mr. Perfect. Unexpectedly, Ellie’s latest ex-boyfriend turns out to be the worst one of them all when he decides to sell Ellie’s biggest well-kept secret to a Sunday newspaper. Before she knows it, the whole country is fascinated by Ellie and her face is on every front page. Ellie realises she needs some professional help to deal with it all, which is where handsome and charming attorney David Gold comes in. The relationship between David and Ellie isn’t the very best at the start since they don’t trust one another, but desperate times call for desperate measures, and this is definitely a desperate time for Ellie.
I immediately fell in love with Ellie after having read the first few chapters of the book. She is simply a wonderful and easily relatable protagonist: down-to-earth, friendly, definitely not perfect, makes a fool of herself every now and again just like the rest of us, and has her own morals and values she tries to stick to. I really felt for Ellie because of the horrible situation she finds herself in and thoroughly enjoyed reading how she tries to get through all of this misery that is suddenly thrown into her direction in the best way possible. One of the things that make Ellie such a loveable heroine is also the relationships she has with the people around her, her friends and her mother Ari, who are also all brilliant characters. The reader even gets the chance to go back in time and see what Ellie’s mum Ari’s life looked like back in the day, which really added something special to the storyline.  
Next to a great heroine, though, the book also has an ideal leading man in the form of David Gold. The words used to describe him made him come to life for me straightaway, and I felt a few butterflies in my stomach every time his name appeared in a sentence. Of course, a book with amazing characters is still nothing without a good plotline, but Sarra Manning has definitely provided her readers with an entertaining and captivating plot with the right amount of romance thrown into it. While some people might think the book is quite long for a chick lit read (it’s over 500 pages), it honestly didn’t bother me one bit. I actually just really didn’t want it to end! ‘It Felt Like a Kiss’ is an amazing and delightful read with the right dose of humour, entertainment and romance, and will undoubtedly become a classic chick lit must-read for years to come! 
Rating:

10/10

Author interview with Sarra Manning!

As a part of the blog tour for 'It Felt Like a Kiss', I got the great opportunity to do a short interview with Sarra Manning!

1) Can you tell us something about your new novel, ‘It Felt Like a Kiss’?

It’s my fourth grown up novel and tells the story of Ellie Cohen, who’s one of those girls who seems to have life figured out. She’s got her dream job in an art gallery, has good friends, a really close family and a hip London lifestyle. Not so figured out is her lovelife – she’s always falling for fixer uppers and once she’s fixed them up, they leave her – and the mega famous rockstar dad who doesn’t even acknowledge her existence. Then one of her fixer uppers sells Ellie out to the papers and her life starts to fall apart. Enter David Gold, a high-flying, kind of ruthless  lawyer sent by her father to manage the crisis and Ellie and that’s when all Ellie’s problems really start.

2) Where did you find the inspiration for ‘It Felt Like a Kiss’? Is it in any way based on your own personal experiences?

Like most of my novels, it started with a tiny thought about the girls I know who always went out with guys that needed mending and snowballed from there. And I always, always remember that when Paul McCartney was found to have a secret lovechild one of the headlines was Macca’s Bastard, which shocked me. I have a similar headline in the book and had to fight to keep it in there as everyone thought it was too unrealistic. The thing is that I work on an idea in my head for months and months, so it’s just layer upon layer of little thoughts and little things I’ve remembered that I knit together to make a book. It was also really lovely to write about being part of a North London Jewish family and a lot of that side of the novel was based on my own family and the families of my Jewish friends.

3) Ellie is a lovely and relatable heroine. How did you come up with her as a character and will we perhaps see her again in the future...? 

I knew quite early on that she was going to be one of those perfect haired, perfect dressed girls who works in Vaughn’s gallery in my novel, Unsticky, who intimidated Grace with their poshness, but again, I usually create characters over time; what they look like, how they dress, what they keep under their beds, what they like to do on a Sunday night. They rarely pop into my head fully-formed and it’s not until I start writing that I really figure out who they are, but with Ellie I did use Pinterest to build up a picture of her and actually pinned specific dresses and items that I mentioned in the novel on a board that summed her up at a glance. And no, I doubt I’ll write Ellie again. She’s gone from my head now!

4) There’s a great mix of characters in the novel. Which character did you most enjoy writing about and why?

I really loved revisiting Grace and Vaughn from Unsticky in this book. Especially Vaughn, as he was Ellie’s boss so he cropped up quite a bit. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that my editor made me cut down some scenes with Vaughn in them because he was hogging the limelight a little too much!

5) Can you perhaps tell us something about your future plans as an author? Are you already working on a next novel?

I have a new YA novel out in May called The Worst Girlfriend In The World. Apart from that I’ve been writing a new grown-up book, which is set in the present day and during World War Two. It’s about two women who run away to London seventy years apart, quite dark in places, kind of funny in other places and is a story I’ve wanted to write for years. I definitely see It Felt Like A Kiss as the end of a particular chapter – the last of my four loosely connected Skirtverse novels - and have a ton of ideas for books that I can’t wait to write.

6) Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?

If it’s not bad blogging etiquette, I just wrote some tips for the Reading In The Sunshine blog.

7) What is the last book you read that you’d like to recommend to others?

I really loved Anna Hope’s debut novel, Wake, about three woman trying to pick up the pieces of their lives after the devastation of World War One. It’s beautifully written and really sums up the feel and mood of London at that time.

8) And last but not least, if you had to describe ‘It Felt Like a Kiss’ in just three words, which words would you pick?

This is the hardest question in the world. I don’t think I could describe anything in only three words, that’s why I write such long novels! Sexy, stylish, spirited. Cool, quirky, romantic. Worth every penny. No, I can’t do it!

Thanks so much, Sarra!
