Last Week of #PoisonBloodSeries #BookSale

Yes, as the title of this post says, this is the last week of the Poison Blood Series book sale I'm running. This promotion was to commemorate how October marked the 5-year anniversary of the release of Poison Blood, Book 2: Absolution (Book 1: Revelation was published a few weeks prior to that in September 2012). You can get the entire four-book series for under $1.99/£1.99!

Here are the links you need to take advantage of this great offer:


Amazon UK | Amazon US | iBooks | B&N Nook Store | Kobo | Smashwords

These YA urban fantasy/vampire romance books had pretty different covers back then; Book 1 started off red-and-white with gold text, then black-and-white with silver text, before evolving into the cleaner looking third one below:




Eventually, and just in time for the release of Books 3 and 4 on Halloween 2016, the rose motif covers looked like this:




Of course, 5-years on, they have completely different covers now (though you'll notice a few differences to the covers below when you come to download them now):




Now, more details on the book sale. The first two books in the series are FREE to download at your favourite retailers, as usual, and for a limited time only, Book 3: Prophecy and Book 4: Apocalypse, will only be 99c/99p each. That's an entire 4-book series for under $1.99/£1.99!




If you don't want to download all four books together, that's okay; I myself like to read a good-sized free preview of a series before handing over cash (that's why I structured/priced this series this way). Therefore, you can download and read Book 1 and see if you like the writing, the story and the characters, and decide if you want to continue the journey with Ellie.

If you like Christian's character and want to see the events of Book 1 from his point of view (plus loads of EXTRA scenes and information to add to the reading experience going into Book 3), you can read Book 2 for FREE, too.

But that's not all, folks.

There's also an opportunity for fans of the first two books to get Book 3: Prophecy for FREE ~ all the details will be at the end of Books 1 and 2! That means fans of Book 1 and 2 can get the whole series for only 99c/99p. Just remember, this price promotion is for a limited time only. Act now and take advantage of this amazing offer:

What if you found out your whole life was a lie, and that was after you were turned into a vampire?

"I don't know what blood tastes like to a human. I'd never even licked a tiny drop of it from a pricked finger, let alone suck on a bleeding cut… Now it's my only food source."

Meet teenage runaway Ellie. She’s snarky, witty, funny, and has issues with her mother, just like any other 17-year-old girl.

She’s also a vampire.

Days before her 18th birthday, the mysterious and handsome immortal Christian, turned her into a creature that she loathes, forcing her to leave her old life behind forever and move to London. Thrust into the supernatural world, full of magic and danger, Ellie doesn’t want to be a killer.

She doesn’t even like to drink blood.

But Christian wasn’t completely honest about why he’d taken a romantic interest in her, and he wasn’t the only one keeping things from her, either.

Her mother was hiding the same secret.

Ellie was never an ordinary teenager, and now, she’s no ordinary teen vampire. When she discovers why she’s not like others of her kind, why she protects humans instead of hunting them, she realises that her life is about to change all over again.

And the world as she knows it will never be the same...

This is the first book in the action-packed Poison Blood Series. If you like fast-paced fantasy novels with shocks and twists, witty heroines and complex villains, then you will love this thrilling urban fantasy series!

Download Poison Blood, Book 1 today for FREE and start the adventure!

If I Say Yes (Love & Alternatives #1) #FREE on Oct 14-15

As the title of this post states, my newest contemporary romance novel, If I Say Yes (Love & Alternatives #1), is FREE to download from this weekend (October 14th and 15th) ~ so get it here from the Kindle US store! And from here if you're a Kindle UK customer.

If you want to learn a bit more about this book, below is a spoiler-free Q&A on the novel. First up however, the cover and blurb:



"You know the story where the girl-next-door-type is getting married to a jerk – and she’s only marrying him because she’s given up on finding Mr. Right – only for the man of her dreams to walk into her life days before the wedding?


This is not that story.

How about the story where the girl is engaged to the nicest guy in the world, but the appearance of a mysterious hunk rocks her world off its axis and makes her wonder if she should select sexy instead of sweet?

This isn’t that story, either.

My story does however, include a man I’m going to marry and a man that…

You’ll find out soon enough..."


An unexpected marriage proposal, the perfect fiancé and engagement party, and Shell is about to embark on a new chapter of her life. But as she prepares for her happy ever after, she discovers that there are people trying to sabotage her pending nuptials.

She just didn’t think one of them might be a stalker she never knew she had, and another to come in the form of Sebastian Lowe, her fiancé’s best friend!

Seb thinks he’s saving his childhood friend from marrying the wrong girl and will stop at nothing to get his way.

But as unforeseen circumstances force Shell and Seb to work together, will she be able to prove to Seb that he’s wrong about her? Or will Seb succeed in splitting the bride and groom apart forever?



Spoiler Free Q&A

Q: What was the main inspiration behind If I Say Yes? 

A: The idea for this story just popped into my head one day, out of the blue. Of course, it’s not a completely original idea, as the female protagonist Shell alludes to in the Prologue (which is also the opening quote of the book blurb), but I can’t say for sure why it felt like such a good idea to write this story, but with my own angle on it.

When I got this idea, I was in the middle of planning/writing two other projects, both of which were in the paranormal romance/urban fantasy genre, and I didn’t think I’d be writing If I Say Yes until I was done with those, but I just felt like writing this book first. It’s one of those things that happens to authors when they have multiple story ideas but feel like writing one book more than the others.

Seb’s character however, was inspired by a real life person. A person I’ve never met, mind you, just heard about from a relative of mine. Unlike Seb who’s in his 20s, his character was inspired by a teenager actually, a boy who is best friends with my cousin’s teenage son, and he’s like the third son to my cousin, having grown up and learned about Bengali culture and tradition from an early age through his friendship with my cousin’s son.

Seen as Seb was going to be the ‘white best friend’ of Shell’s fiancé, Imran, I didn’t want to go down the predictable route where it’s a culture clash for him when he gets involved in Imran’s wedding to Shell. It would be typical to have Seb question the traditions of Bengali weddings and find everything new and amusing, not getting it, and so on. And these guys are supposed to be best friends from childhood, so wouldn’t Seb learn about Bengali culture from his friend? I’m really glad I had that random conversation with my cousin’s wife about her son’s white best friend who feels more a part of his friend’s family than his own. I guess that conversation in 2015 planted the seed for this book? 


Q: What did you enjoy most about writing If I Say Yes? 

A: Since August 2010, I’ve been spending time with the same group of characters: Mukti, Jamie and co. from my other contemporary romance series, the Soulmates Saga; and Ellie, Christian and co. from the Poison Blood Series. So, it was a pleasure creating and developing a new set of characters to fall in love with. Like making new friends, it was exciting yet nerve-wracking. There was some uncertainty, too: How will things turn out? Did I make the right choices? Will everyone else like them, too?






Q: Do you have a favourite scene in If I Say Yes? 

A: I think the scene where the stalker situation is resolved is my favourite (sorry I can’t give more details, but I’m trying to keep the spoilers out). It was a real turning point for Shell, where she got to see the true colours of the people around her. 


Q: Do you have a writing routine? Has it changed over the years? 

A: Things have changed a lot since I started writing Chasing Pavements (Soulmates Saga #1) in August 2010, my debut novel. At that time, I was single and working full-time in the financial services sector. I wrote during the evenings and weekends, and wrote at least 3,000 words each evening, and a whole lot more during the weekends.

Seven years on, I’m married and out of work due to illness. You may have read my post titled ‘When Life Imitates Art ~ An author’s tale’, where I revealed that I suffer from severe, chronic and constant lower-back pain, which worsens considerably if I sit or stand for more than 15-20 minutes. As a result, I can’t write every day, anymore. Some weeks, I don’t write at all due to the pain, and of course family responsibilities.

I wrote over 90% of If I Say Yes while lying in bed, on my stomach. It was hard on the arms and elbows ~ but that pain dissipated quickly ~ but at least my back pain didn’t worsen. Prior to April 2017, I did all my writing ~ novels and blog posts ~ in that fashion.

Then I found out I was pregnant, and it’s not ideal to be lying on your bump anymore, is it?

But I really want to write the conclusion to the Love & Alternatives duology ~ If I Say No ~ as well as those PNR/UF projects I mentioned earlier, and so I have no choice but to write whilst sitting down. Yes, the pregnancy adds to the back pain, worsens it big time, and because I can’t take my regular medication for the pain due to the pregnancy, things are pretty difficult at the moment. It’s only my love ~ and need ~ for writing that coerces me to spend a few hours each week sitting and writing. If I didn’t love it so much, I wouldn’t be doing it. The accompanying pain just wouldn’t be worth it.

And so, I try to write as much as I can, when I can, though my aim is to write at least a chapter whenever I sit down with my laptop, around 1,500 words on average (taking lots of breaks and doing lots of stretches every few minutes).

I’m not changing my writing methods though, and so, I always go over what I wrote during the previous session, to catch up with what’s happening and get back in the zone, and editing that section as I go. I think most authors do this.

Once the first rough draft is done, I go back to the beginning and do a quick revision, adding any scenes or descriptions where needed, seeing how the story flows. If I end up adding lots of new material throughout the novel, I will go back and do another quick light round of revision to see how things flow now.

Then I take a break from the manuscript. At least a month. Afterwards, the real editing begins, and I revise the manuscript to death, until I hate everything I’ve written and think its utter rubbish.

Then, another break. For a month, if I can afford it, or at least 2 weeks. A few more rounds of serious editing follows, and I only stop when I start loathing the book and don’t want to lay my eyes on it ever again.

I have become a better editor now though, so the process is more efficient ~ I’d done a lot of editing for books, research papers and blogs in my job in the financial services sector, so I can be very patient with the process.

Before the novel is ready for anyone else’s eyes however, I convert the Word file into e-book format and download it onto my Kindle or iPhone to do my own round of proof-reading, where the mistakes pop out easily. It’s also a nice change after staring at the laptop screen for months and months!

Nonetheless, the release of If I Say No will be delayed, as will the other projects I’m working on. And when the baby arrives ~ the due date is end of November 2017 ~ I don’t think I’ll have much time to do anything for myself, let alone reading and writing. We’ll see, I suppose. 


Q: How does the Love & Alternatives series compare to the Soulmates Saga? 

A: The Love & Alternatives series isn’t as dark or heavy as the Soulmates Saga, even though it does tackle a few serious issues. It also has a sweeter vibe to it, and the main characters are less troubled and tormented than those in the Soulmates Saga.




If I Say Yes is written from three characters’ POVs and in the first person, with two of those characters having more page time than the third character. It’s the first time I’ve tried this ~ the Poison Blood Series is written in the first person, but it’s mainly from Ellie’s POV, with a little from Christian thrown in here and there (though Book 2 is entirely from his POV). 

The Soulmates Saga on the other hand, is written in what I call ‘biased third-party narrative’ and though it’s mainly the lead protagonists that dominate page time, we do hear from many other characters, too. It’s biased because, when I write from Mukti’s ‘point of view’, the narrative matches her style of thinking/speaking and anything she doesn’t know, won’t feature in the sections that are from her ‘POV’. More about this in my POV post if you’re interested. Anyway, if you’ve read Dan Brown, you’ll know what I mean by biased third-party narrator; he does it so, so well! 

If I Say Yes is more fast-paced than the novels in the Soulmates Saga, but that’s not to say that Chasing PavementsMake You Feel My Love and Someone Like You are slow-burners, either. 


Q: How does Shell compare to Mukti from the Soulmates Saga? 

A: Both Shell and Mukti are young British Bangladeshi Muslims that were born and bred in London, but their personalities are very different. They’ve had different upbringings, too, their family dynamics worlds apart: Shell has a close, loving family and has a great relationship with her parents and siblings, whereas Mukti has always felt like an outsider amongst her kin, and that has solidified further when you first meet her in Chasing Pavements, due to her past and secrets.

Mukti’s past has turned her into someone that doesn’t fully integrate with the world around her ~ she just does enough to get by. However, Mukti achieves as much as, if not more than, what most young women that haven’t been through what she has in academia and the work place. Shell doesn’t have a past or any secrets ~ it’s in If I Say Yes where her past begins, so to speak. It’s a truly coming of age story for Shell.

They’re both hard-working, professional women, though Mukti is more creative and artistic than Shell.





Q: How do Seb and Imran compare to Jamie from the Soulmates Saga? 

A: When you first meet these characters, I’d say Seb and Imran are more instantly likeable than Jamie, Imran more than Seb. The male characters in If I Say Yes are more open and honest with the reader, and have a great friendship with each other, whereas Jamie is an introverted recluse. Jamie goes through more change and character development in Chasing Pavements though, and you do fall in love with him by the end of the book.

The two best friends in If I Say Yes are so different from each other in terms of personality ~ Seb is loud, brash and bit of a commitment-phobe; Imran is the deep thinker, quiet, reserved, but he embraces the idea of settling down with his fiancé, Shell, the perfect woman for him ~ and they couldn’t be more different from Jamie. However, Jamie is like Imran when it comes to settling down; he’s ready for the happy ever after with the woman that he loves. She just needs to get to that phase, too.

That’s it folks. Hope you enjoyed the interview. Don't forget to download If I Say Yes this weekend for FREE. Get it here from the Kindle US store! And from here if you're a Kindle UK customer.

September Wrap-Up: #BookReviews of September #BookHaul

Oh, I read some great books in September! So, I'm just going to get to reviewing them for you now.




I really enjoyed Lauren's Oliver's Delirium earlier this year, and was happy to see the sequel, Pandemonium in my local library.


This is a YA dystopian trilogy, and I was really excited to see what happened in Pandemonium, especially after the heart-stopping ending to Book 1.

So, a little about Book 1 (because I can't tell you anything about Book 2 without spoiling you): 

Love is seen as a disease in this dystopian world, but there is a surgical procedure which is thought to cure you. Well, prevent you from contracting this deadly illness, prevent you from falling in love.

But what if you're already in love before your procedure takes place?

What would you do?

Read this trilogy and find out! Book 1 was really good, the writing was clever and so beautiful ~ I highly recommend it for YA dystopia fans, as well as anyone who reads teen/YA fiction. My review of Delirium is in my May Wrap-Up post.

My Rating for Pandemonium: 4-stars

I enjoyed this sequel as much as the first book. It's structured differently to Book 1, and I liked this format as much as the structure of the first book. This book is definitely more fast-paced, as you'd expect in a sequel, because you've already gotten to know the characters' back-story and personality pretty well in the series starter. The writing is just as good, there's character development and change, twists and turns... I kept reaching for the book whenever I had to put it down and do something else.

Highly, highly recommend this series if you read YA/teen fiction or dystopia.

The other book I'd been dying to read is Home by Harlan Coben.


Home is the 11th book in the Myron Bolitar series, my favourite crime series of all time. So, of course I'd been itching to get my hands on it, especially since I read a little preview of it in Fool Me Once, by the same author (though not from the Myron Bolitar series), earlier this year.

If you're interested in my review of Fool Me Once, you can find it in my March Wrap-Up post.

A little background on this bestselling series:

Myron Bolitar is a sports agent that also ends up investigating and solving crimes, from murders and missing persons to entrapment of dangerous gangsters. He has a great sidekick/best friend that helps him out, who is one of my favourite thriller characters ever. His name is Win Lockwood, short for Windsor Horne Lockwood III, but don't be fooled by the title ~ Win is a serious badass.

But things have changed quite a bit now, 11 books into the series, so I was eager to see how everything turned out.

My Rating: 5-stars

This is only my second 5-star rating this year. It. Was. That. Good. And I've read some pretty good books this year. The mystery that had to be solved in this book was so cleverly crafted, so well executed, and of course, pulled at the heartstrings, too. That's one of the things that sets apart Harlan Coben's crime thrillers from the rest ~ the emotion, the heart.

And not to mention the wit and comedy, the amazing chemistry between Myron and his friends, particularly Win.

Ah, Win.

Love this character. I don't think I'd find it easy to love Win as a person in real life ~ on paper, he has a lot of issues and faults and makes some decisions that most people would disapprove of and frown upon, including me. But as fictional characters go, he is one of my favourites and one of the best I've ever read. I don't think every lead character or sidekick has to be likeable and be a good role model, as long as they're well developed and make for an entertaining read. Win is definitely that.

I so loved the ending scene in this book, and I wish I could discuss it with you, but I can't. All I will say is that if you haven't started this series yet, do it. What are you waiting for?

I also spotted the third book in the Mickey Bolitar series in the library, Found, also by Harlan Coben ~ I read book 2, Seconds Away, last month (review here).


Mickey is Myron's 16-year-old nephew, and like his uncle, he has a thing for investigating the mysterious, helping the needy.

Playing the hero.

In Seconds Away, I found him to be just as likeable as Myron, and I was interested to see what kinds of trouble he got into in the third book in this spin-off series.

It is a YA series, but Harlan Coben's fans will enjoy it too. Well, I certainly enjoyed Seconds Away.

I really enjoyed Found, too.

My Rating: 4-stars

I found myself flying through this book. Harlan Coben's books are hard to put down, and this was no different. As this is the third in the series, again, I can't really say much about the plot, only that I found it riveting. There were lots of little things going on, but they were woven together perfectly, and the ending... Wow. I do hope we will see more of Mickey in the future.

So, as I was in bit of a crime/thriller mood in September, thanks to Harlan Coben, I thought I'd catch up on one of the paperbacks on my personal bookshelf, and finally get around to reading...

I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes


I purchased this book a while back from WHSmiths (I had some book tokens leftover from years ago; I'd won them at a poetry competition in my teens) and had planned to read it earlier in the year (perhaps in my first Book Haul post), but I didn't get around to it. Lately, I've found myself procrastinating when it comes to books and e-books that I own, favouring the books I borrow from the library because of the limited amount of time I have to read them.

I Am Pilgrim was a huge success when it came out and I believe it's a complex thriller? I do like starting books with little knowledge of the plot and so on, preferring to discover everything as the characters do. With thrillers, I think it's better to go into them blind. So that's what I planned to do.

However, if you'd like to learn more about this book, and the others in this post, just click on the book name above the cover image and it'll take you to the corresponding Goodreads page.

Unfortunately, I didn't get around to reading this book, so no review, I'm afraid. Like I mentioned above, I've been really bad about reading books that I own. Hopefully, I'll get around to picking it up soon. Or eventually.

Lord of Shadows (The Dark Artifices #2) by Cassandra Clare


I downloaded this highly anticipated sequel to Lady Midnight on my iPhone (on iBooks) and was really looking forward to getting stuck in. Cassandra Clare fans are loving this series, and I'd heard great things about this book, so I didn't want to wait any longer to read it.

From the cover, I got the feeling that it was going to get a lot darker in this book. I really enjoyed the first book in the Dark Artifices series, which of course is a part of the Shadowhunter Chronicles, so I was keen to see how things pan out in this book. The ending to Lady Midnight hinted at so much....

I would normally tell you a little about Lady Midnight, but it's not that simple: The Dark Artifices series is a follow-on series to the Mortal Instruments series, taking place after the events of the 6th and final book in that series. Plus, there was another series, the Infernal Devices series ~ almost like a prequel series, but not quite, to the Mortal Instruments series ~ that also has to be read before starting this series. So it's hard to set the scene for Lord of Shadows.

All I can say about Lady Midnight is that, writing-wise, it felt like the most accomplished of Clare's work. Read my review of Lady Midnight in my April Wrap-Up post.

My Rating for Lord of Shadows: 5-stars

So, this is now only the third time so far this year that I've rated something 5-stars, and boy does this book deserve it. If I could give it 6 out of 5, I would. Or 7, or 8. It had everything, and I loved it.

Lady Midnight was great, but Lord of Shadows is better. I don't know how the length of this book compares to its predecessor ~ I read Lady Midnight in hardback form, and Lord of Shadows in e-book format, but whereas Lady Midnight was a big long book and felt that way, and I found that it started off slowly, Lord of Shadows felt too short, like I should have dragged it out longer, not because it was rushed or anything, and the pacing was perfect.

I got more invested with the characters in this book and I liked how they developed and matured. And the added focus on the secondary characters, especially Ty and Kit, I really liked.

I should have guessed I'd like this book more than Book 1, as I've noticed a pattern with me and Cassandra Clare books: I always seem to like the second book in her series more than the rest. City of Ashes was my favourite from the Mortal Instruments series, Clockwork Prince was the one I enjoyed most of the Infernal Devices series, and now Lord of Shadows.

I just hope that the other pattern isn't repeated with the Dark Artifices series ~ the final books in Cassie Clare's series are the ones I always seem to enjoy least and struggle with; it happened with City of Heavenly Fire (TMI) and Clockwork Princess (TID) ~ because I am really looking forward to the third book in the Dark Artifices series and I don't want to be left underwhelmed. I believe Queen of Air and Darkness (The Dark Artifices #3) isn't going to release for a couple more years, though...

Stone of Fire (ARKANE #1) by J.F. Penn


I downloaded this free series starter from Amazon on my Kindle App. This series is billed as 'Dan Brown meets Tomb Raider', or something like that, which, in my opinion, can't be a bad thing. I like Dan Brown. I liked the Tomb Raider films, and if it's as good as everyone's saying, then I thought that should really like this one, because I do like my Dan Brown-style thrillers.

Unfortunately, I couldn't finish this book because every time I tried to read it, my Kindle App froze, so I couldn't flip to the next page, or the screen went black. That's never happened before, and I don't know what caused this strange malfunctioning because my iPhone was working fine as usual. I tried on a few different days to launch this e-book on my Kindle App but the same issues occurred. Then, I because I'm a wuss, I decided not to try an read any more books on my Kindle App for a while, so not to end up breaking my phone.

Now, I have a quick announcement to make. I don't expect to do a book haul in October, because I don't know if I'll be able to read enough books to justify such a post. Those of you that read my Q&A post on If I Say Yes (Love & Alternatives #1) a few weeks back will remember me telling you that I'm expecting my first baby in November. I know, congratulations to me ;) The official due date is November 20, and so I'll be quite busy preparing for the baby in October and November.

And then busy with the baby thereafter.

However, I will be posting new content on my blog every Monday in the next couple of months (I've written a few articles in preparation for my 'maternity leave from blogging'), and I'll review any books I end up reading as and when I can.

As for 2018... It's going to be a hectic year. I'm both nervous and excited about it, but one thing I know for sure is that writing and blogging will have to take a backseat for a while. Babies take over your life, everyone keeps telling me, so I'm expecting just that :)
