Read the first 12 chapters of Lancelot's Lady for FREE at Authonomy.com

“Cherish D'Angelo has got that mythical “voice” down to a fine art.” ―Jennifer L. Hart, author of River Rats
Sipping margaritas at a beach in the Bahamas was the idea, but Rhianna soon realizes that Fate and a handsome, moody recluse have other plans.

When palliative care nurse Rhianna McLeod is given a gift of a dream holiday to the Bahamas from her dying patient, billionaire JT Lance, Rhianna has no idea that her 'holiday' will include being stranded on a private island with Jonathan, an irritating but irresistibly handsome recluse. Or that she'll fall head over heels for the man.

Jonathan isn't happy to discover a drop-dead gorgeous redhead has invaded his island. But his anger soon turns to attraction. After one failed marriage, he has guarded his heart, but Rhianna's sudden appearance makes him yearn to throw caution to the wind.

To live fully in the present, Rhianna must resolve her own murky past, unravel the secret that haunts JT, foil the plans of a sleazy, blackmailing private investigator and help Jonathan find his muse. Only then can Rhianna find the love she's been searching for, and finally become...Lancelot's Lady.

Children of the Fog: 'You have 10 seconds to make a decision...'

People in the writing biz know how difficult it is to have a manuscript rise to the top of the slush pile, where it needs to be so that publishers will notice it. My goal is to get to the top--and I'm close. Nowadays, authors have to be bolder to get noticed.
 
While my agent is pitching my new thriller Children of the Fog to publishers, I am doing what I can to get it read by editors. Right now it is on Authonomy, a site created by HarperCollins, and I could really use your support.
 
The more people who "back" my book, the closer I'll get to being read by the editors at HC, and I would love that opportunity.
 
So I'd like to invite you to check out Children of the Fog, read a chapter or seven, and if you enjoy it and think it's worthy, please click on "back the book".
 
Here's what the critics say:
 
"Gripping storyline... that takes us on a harrowing and chilling journey...BRILLIANTLY written..."
"IF ANYONE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT GOOD WRITING AND A GOOD STORY IS; THIS IS IT.  Wow."
"Superb."
"Masterful writing! Descriptive! You hook us with your gripping edge of the seat, first chapter. You have set the bar high for the genre."
"Truly professional quality writing. Quite astonishing really."
"Gripping...The pitch is also fantastic, one of the best I've read here or anywhere else."
"This is an excellent but chilling story, and I sat in front of my computer with tears rolling down my face...an absolutely superb gem."
 
Children of the Fog ~ You have 10 seconds to make a decision. Let a madman take your child, or watch your child die. CHOOSE!
 
 
Once you click on "Back the book" you'll need to set up an account, but it's free and you don't have to do anything else afterward. And you won't get junk mail.
 
Thank you for your support. I truly appreciate it.
