Hi Jessie - excellent book, I only have a few chapters left to read but, I have to keep putting it down as I don't want it to end. When will Black Widow be released??? Excellent work please keep writting.

Hi Jessie, Just to say I have just finished your book and wow I cant wait for the next one. It had me hooked from start to finish I didn’t want it to end. Many thanks for a fantastic read.
-------------------------------------
I have just finished reading your book Dirty Game, it was fabulous, I am a Martina Cole fan, but you are really giving her a run for her money, just wanted to say thank you and well done, and the big question is how soon can i get my hands on Black Widow, I can't wait! Looking forward to your long and successful career as an A1 writer.
-------------------------------------

I loved your book dirty game - really enjoyed it. Can you tell me when your next book is coming out please?
------------------------------------

I have never done this before but just thought I would email to say what a fantastic book Dirty Game was. I only bought it yesterday at my local supermarket and have now finished it after just one day. It kept me gripped from start to finish and it really made you feel that you were back in time. The characters were all very different and well thought out and the storyline was sometimes graphic but not to the extent that it made you cringe. It was also refreshing to read a book that kept going right to the end as so many times have I read a good book only to find it all ends in a matter of a couple of pages and you are left feeling like the author sort of gave up, even though I am sure that never happens but it sometimes feels that way. For a first book it was fantastic. I really wish you all the best for your future writing and will definitely be looking forward to the next book.

Amazon Reader Reviews:

Martina watch out another new kid on the block brill, the book reminds me of the books Martina used to write at the beginning as she started out. This one is really good. I bought it and it had a sticker on the front saying as good as martina cole or your money back. I dont think people will be sending this book back in a hurry. well done cant wait for your new one - keep them coming! 5 out of 5 stars
-----------------------------------

I was so excited when I picked this up - it reminded me of Martina Cole in her early days. The book didn't disappoint, I couldn't put it down. There were lots of twists and it wasn't at all predictable. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait for her next one. If you like Martina Cole, you'll like this. 5 out of 5 stars
----------------------------------

BRILLIANT BOOK! Couldn't wait to turn the next page, this book is like Martina Cole when she first started out! 5 out of 5 stars
---------------------------------

I picked this book up because of the "as good as Martina Cole or your money back" sticker and I wasn't disappointed! Great book, likable characters, not too far fetched! The best read since Martina Cole's earlier novels, far better than Mandasue Heller etc.
