I spent my school life in a girls’ boarding-school specialising in classical ballet and on leaving I danced professionally, touring Europe, for 4 years. After that, I ran my own ballet school in Athens, Greece for several years and simultaneously volunteered as a veterinary nurse, as my love of animals is the driving force in my life. I returned to England with my horse and my cat, and now live on a smallholding in Shropshire with my husband, various farm animals and a constant stream of pets.
I started writing while in Greece and completed a Creative Writing Course with the Writers’ Bureau. The same year, I won an annual competition in the Writing Magazine for an adult Fairy Story.
On my return to England, I wrote two children’s books, but my new life, caring for Highland Cattle, sheep, hens, and pets, coupled with extensive global travel, meant that writing for publication took a back seat. I continued my love of writing with a daily journal and amusing travel blogs of each trip.
I am now writing full time and THE GRACEFUL GHOST was my first self-published book. It was shortlisted for the UK Selfies 2021 Award and draws on my own experiences in ballet-boarding-school and early teenage life. Book two, Ballet School Boys, introduces boys to the school and book three, Ballet School Rumours continues their adventures with the resident ghosts, Grace and Rodney.
I am also working on a six-book series called TALLY AND THE ANGEL. Tally and her angel’s first adventure takes them to India. In the second book they go to Canada, in North Yukon and the third in Japan. I intend them to have adventures in Greece, Egypt, Peru – anywhere I have been, really. Each book has an extra story woven into it because every chapter starts with a paragraph telling the back story of one of the mystical elements of the story. Book One tells the story of Jophiel, the Angel. Book Two tells the story of Auric, the Spirit of Gold.
I am truly passionate about writing and have all my books professionally edited and proofread before going to print.

(The Alien & The Crime Boss)
KASPER KINGSTON
With my plan to weaken the two major crime families set in motion, I retreat to a remote cabin to wait out the destruction and plan my takeover. None of my plans included a man claiming to be from another planet.
Believing he’s been sent to kill me, his ridiculous claim a distraction meant to throw me off, I hold him prisoner. But then he goes and saves my life. Maybe there’s something to this alien thing after all. One thing is certain, my pathway to power just got a whole lot easier with him on my side.
All I have to do now is stay focused on the mission and not get distracted by the allure of my otherworldly hero.
LEILPHUN
After fleeing the authorities on my home planet to avoid the punishment of the fighting arena, I awake on Earth only to find I’ve exchanged one prison for another. The difference is, I can tell the wary human holding me captive won’t harm me. He might be reluctant to believe I’m not human, but deep-down he knows I’m not a threat.
Despite his suspicion, he treats me well and even initiates the betrothal ritual. Which is why when people show up in the middle of the night intending to kill him, I call upon my warrior spirit to defend him; the very warrior spirit I’d sworn never to use, because I fear losing myself to my primal nature.
Now, Kasper has made me a part of his mission to rise to the top; but how can I be certain it’s me he truly wants? What if I’m just a pawn in his struggle for power – only good for my talents, but not worthy of his love?

About C.A. King, USA Today Bestselling Author I was diagnosed with clinical depression after the loss of my mother, father and husband within three years of each other; all to cancer. 24/7 in-home care, coupled with the loss I felt, left its mark on my psyche. Depression takes up a lot of my life. Reading and writing are the only things I have found that help (in connection with regular medication), even if only for a short time. To escape to a different world can make a big difference in my mood in real time. To put things in perspective, when I was at my lowest point, I couldn’t open mail, talk on the phone, or even drive to the store. Walls of sadness surrounded me. As they closed in, tears would fall. There didn’t need to be a reason or trigger. People ask me why I started writing. My answer is simple: I wanted to create a world into which other people with similar problems could escape. I wanted to share the one place that had helped me for many years. I have always said that as long as one person finds a little bit of happiness out of my books, I am, in my opinion, an accomplished author. The same is true for every writer out there. Please don’t ever let anyone tell you different. I read books as well as write them and have visited the worlds many different authors have created. Those worlds not only make me feel better, but give me the strength to face real life again. I want to thank everyone who writes – I want them to know they are making a difference. Fast forward to today… I am an award-winning & USA Today Bestselling Author with over 50 books available across multiple fantasy sub-genres. Awards include: 2020 USA Today Bestselling Author Hamilton Spectator Readers’ Choice Award in the Best Local Author category 2017 & 2018 & 2019 Brant News Readers’ Choice Award: Best Local Author 2017 Readers’ Favorite International Book Awards: Best Novella/Short Story 2017 Silver medal 2017 SIBA Awards – Best Novella 2017 SIBA Awards – Best New Adult 2018 Readers’ Favorite International Book Awards: Gold Medal in the Fiction – Supernatural genre 2018 Readers’ Favorite International Book Awards: Bronze Medal in the Fiction – New Adult genre 2019 Readers’ Favorite Gold Medal Winner in the Fiction – Supernatural genre 2019 Readers’ Favorite Gold Medal Winner in the Young Adult – Fantasy – Urban genre City of Brantford Featured Artist February 2020 Burlington Post Readers’ Choice Award in the Best Local Author Category 2020 Toronto Star Readers’ Choice Award in the Best Local Author Category 2020

And that’s what Ivy was doing. She’d do anything to save her ranch. Anything. Including pretending to be engaged to a handsome, retired Marine to placate her sexist clients. Not that draping herself over Ace was a hardship. It wasn’t. She just wished he could get over his hero complex and stop trying to save her. There were far better ways they could be spending their time.
Sweet, shy, and babbling Ivy had gotten so far under Ace’s skin, he knew he was in trouble. Faking a relationship may have been his idea but he knew deep down he didn’t stand a chance with her in real life. Medically discharged from the military, it wasn’t just internal battle scars he’d been left with, he also had some big ugly ones on his face too. If he couldn’t even look himself in the mirror, no one else ever would be able to either. Especially not the most beautiful woman he’d ever laid eyes on.
Can these two wounded souls turn their fake relationship into a real one?

Brave Kids: Short Stories to Inspire Future World-Changers is your brave kid’s personal guidebook to understanding bravery which comes in many forms, magically appearing in many different situations and locations, like an airport, a hike, in school, or even at home.
Sometimes when you dream, it takes a while for it to become a reality. I have wanted to write books since I was a little girl and fell in love with my hometown library. I read books at school, at home, in bed, and even in the bathtub. I just couldn’t get enough of faraway places, brave heroes and heroines, and the experience of getting lost in a new and amazing adventure in each book. Through the years, I became the owner of a preschool, a public librarian, a school librarian, and a children’s yoga teacher but no matter what I did I shared stories with children. Finally, at age 62, I published my first book but I know it won’t be my last.

Managing Balefire into the world’s biggest rock band came at a personal cost—walking away from my only love. When fate brings her back into my life, I’m determined not to screw up again. After Balefire hires her studio to produce their next music video, I have a second chance to rewrite our song—if I can convince her I’m a changed man.
Olivia

Too bad that means working with the man who tore my heart out of my chest when he chose his rock ’n’ roll dream over me.
He says he’s grown up. He says we can make things work. But can I truly trust that this time he will stay for me?
