REVIEWS AND THE "SECRET" IS OUT IN AUSTRALIA!

Hi, everyone. I'm Grace McAllister and Liz -- working hard on page proofs for her next book but one -- asked me to drop by and tell you about the really lovely 4.5 star review for Secret Baby, Surprise Parents that dropped into her inbox this weekend from Julie at Cataromance.

"Secret Baby, Surprise Parents is a powerful, emotional and heart wrenching romantic tale from the wonderful pen of multi award-winning author Liz Fielding!

"Moving, poignant and wonderfully written, Secret Baby, Surprise Parents is not just a terrific romance, but also a compelling family drama that will make readers think about the choices and dilemmas which modern women have to face on a daily basis.

"Secret Baby, Surprise Parents is an exceptional romance by one of contemporary romantic fiction’s finest – Liz Fielding!" More here.

I read it out to Posie while Josh was feeding her this morning and she blew an oatmeal bubble she was so excited. Josh just shrugged in that "what can I say?" way that men have as he wiped the cereal off his chin, but I could see he was pretty pleased with the "terrific romance" bit.

And another really exciting thing is that our book is available online now in Australia and New Zealand here.

It'll be in the shops next month.

Josh was blase about that. Australia is his second home and he expected nothing else, but the stay-at-home in me is still getting used to having another home on the other side of the world.

FAB REVIEWS!

Many thanks to Nicola for a fun weekend, and to everyone who took time to leave a comment or take part in the draw for THE UNMASKING OF LADY LOVELESS.

I'll post the name of the winner as soon as Nicola has made the draw.

In the meantime, while I'm battling through the last chapter of my wip, here are some absolutely fabulous reviews for WEDDED IN A WHIRLWIND, which I know I don't have to remind you is ON SALE NOW!!!

First, Cataromance said this...

Liz Fielding never ceases to amaze me! Just when you think that her books cannot possibly get any better, she pulls the rug from under your feet by delivering an outstanding romantic tale that leaves you breathless! Sensitively-written, heartrending, beguiling and absolutely impossible to put down, Wedded in a Whirlwind is another classic by one of Harlequin’s finest writers!


Then Romance Junkies added their pennyworth with: --

If you’re looking for a soul stirring tale that makes readers laugh, cry, and look at the world just a little bit differently then WEDDED IN A WHIRLWIND fits the bill perfectly. Nick and Miranda have troubled pasts that they’ve never fully shared with anyone. The time they spend together talking allows them a new perspective on their lives. While I really enjoyed Miranda and Nick’s arguments and their stubborn attitudes I really became ‘attached’ to the characters once they began disclosing the events of their past that made them into the people they are today. Liz Fielding gives readers a fun story full of passion, adventure and believable emotional situations which allow readers to feel like they’re a part of the story rather than just a reader.

And finally there was this from All About Romance, who are famously hard to please. I've never made their coveted Desert Isle Keeper list before, but Wedded touched the right chord this month and here's what their reviewer said about Miranda and Nick and their story: --

As a reader, I find myself quick to praise the new and innovative. However, sometimes a sweet, "comfort food" book comes along that just leaves me smiling. Wedded in a Whirlwind is just such a book. It does not reinvent the genre, but in a very limited number of pages, the author constructs a beautiful fairytale that truly sweeps one right out of the everyday world.
