Interview


1. Can you tell me about your new book.

My most recent release is One Night in Los Angeles, a hot romance about A list film star Aaron Halliday and Hollywood hopeful Abbi Devine's meeting.  It's got some steamy (and explicit) scenes, but it's most definitely a love story at heart.

2. What do you love about writing?
There's something incredibly therapeutic about allowing your mind to run away to somewhere imaginary, and on the days when writing's going well it's the best thing in the world!  I love it when a story I've planned takes a new direction, it keeps me on my toes and stops me becoming complacent. And I love how writing, and words, connect authors and readers. What can I say?  Writing's my passion.

3. Where did the idea come from for your Meet Cute series?
I never set out to write a series, originally writing just one story (The Boy with the Board) to enter into a short story competition.  Then a group of friends suggested writing more along a similar theme and The Meet Cute series was born!  I wrote seven stories fairly quickly, envisaging an anthology of sweet romantic connections, but Harper Impulse thought they'd work well as a series of coffee break/commuter reads.  The rest, as they say, is history!

4. What do you do when you're not writing?
I'm a complete and utter bookworm so I have to say if I'm not writing I'll probably be found with my nose in a book.  I've been reviewing on my blog Books with Bunny since 2013 and can't imagine a world without books.  I'm also a big fan of live music and theatre, so I try to go to as many events as I can.  Last year I saw Take That, One Direction, Johnny Marr, McBusted, Olly Murs, Frank Turner and Shed Seven live, plus interpretations of Rebecca, Matilda, and Romeo and Juliet.

​Abbi Devine never expected Hollywood to be like this... 

Leaving her small town in northern Maine for Hollywood was always going to be a gamble, but she's finally got her chance- a speaking part as a burlesque dancer in a movie starring A list actor Aaron Halliday. 

However, when she's thrown off her stride and ends up in a heap on the floor, Aaron's the one to come to her rescue. There's an undeniable attraction between them which comes as a surprise to Abbi, who has sworn off men following a bad experience. 

Is Aaron really the unfeeling playboy the press make him out to be? And can Abbi let go of her past to enjoy her present?
