BOOK BLURB / SYNOPSIS

Love can be such a “coulda, woulda, shoulda” song sometimes... Lucia Mpobo-Riddell could have been a dancer like the rest of women of her family but instead she chose music. Marcus Grant could have been a doctor like the rest of his family but instead he chose music. She also could have not fallen for Marcus on her birthday but she did. And Marcus, he could have told Lucia the truth about his real reason for being in Toronto that night, but he didn’t. Now they have to deal with big reveals and consequences: Marcus almost stealing her job and being force to work on an album together. Marcus, because he couldn’t swallow his pride, leaves Toronto and goes home to London. Lucia, because she just couldn’t give up on her first amazing opportunity to produce a whole album. And to complicate the situation further, the band they’re working for is not the easiest one. Mary Gillis, Marcus’ on and off flame, still has a hold on him. Greg McMullen, Lucia’s close friend and former dance partner is back in town and has been in love with her for years. Then there’s Marcus and Lucia, in the middle of their own a professional and personal tug-of- war with each over and the rest of the world. But maybe things could still work out... All things considered, this could have been one heck of a love song!

BOOK BLURB / SYNOPSIS

Marcus, Greg and Lucia are back in the second part of their journey to their perfect love song... will they finally find it? This would have been their perfect love song... It has been two years since Lucia Mpobo-Riddell has made her choice between the two men in her life. She and her beloved would have been perfectly happy if it wasn’t for... the constant distractions from her past, her sister Noor’s complicated life, her own doubts and fears. Maybe there wasn’t such a thing as perfection and this was a lesson that Lucia was going to learn the hard way. Greg McMullen and Marcus Grant’s lives had been affected by Lucia’s choice that day in Glasgow two years ago. Since then one had been fighting to keep her when the other had been relentlessly trying to get her back. It soon became apparent to them that she wasn’t the Lucia they met and fell in love with anymore. Her life and priorities had completely shifted. To even consider keeping her or just getting her back, they would have to accept it or they would have to let her go. But would they ever be able to do either?

So I was blessed to be able to read these two amazing books. The story line was a great read, full of amazingly realistic characters that seem like people that I would know. They were all so full of life, challenges, and complications to what they wanted.

Lucia is from a very large, extensive, loving family that embraces their background and history. Lucia is complicated, struggling to find her place, and yet confident as to what she wants. When things finally start going her way, will it work out the way she wants? Will she end up with her prince charming?

Marcus met Lucia and tried to steal her job. However, there is more going on then Lucia realizes. What will happen when the real reason he is there in Toronto comes out? Will he be able to mend the damage that he has unintentionally caused?? Will Marcus be the one that ends up with Lucia?

Greg on the other hand, has known Lucia for years. He has never told her, but has had feelings for her the entire time. When he finally comes clean and admits ti what he feels, will he be able to win over the woman he loves?

These two books are about these amazingly complex people and how they interact with each other. What will happen with these relationships? Will Lucia end up with the man that she has known for years, or will the man that tried to steal her dream job from her be the one she ends up with?

BOOK BLURB / SYNOPSIS

18+ adult content This was supposed to be an easy case... Sémya Slotin had spent the last three years living in London with her best friend Polliannah Koch staying away from solving cases. After Hawaii, she was taking a break from puzzles, cases and mysteries that could potentially get her killed. Instead, she had been doing her second and third favorite things, drinking and selling expensive vintage wines and having earth-shattering sex with the mysterious, sexy, beautiful but ever so secretive Josh Heinz. Life in London was good....until her funds ran out. Too much wine drinking, not enough wine selling! When fashion designer and adoptive mother, Annika Slotin, summoned her back to Paris to hire her for what Sémya considered being the easiest case of her amateur sleuth career, all she could think of and see was money signs and a well-deserved Cuban holiday once it was solved. What Sémya didn't see was her stumbling on the fresh corpse of supermodel Johanna Cartier. She didn't think that male model turned fashion designer Julian Marais-Caldwin, who also happened to be Sémya's ex, would be suspected of brutally murdering her. Johanna was his girlfriend, his muse and he loved her. Sémya didn't see the dead bodies piling up or the conspiracy theories. Sémya was a little rusty. But then again, it was supposed to be an easy case and she was going to solve it. One vintage wine at a time... Sémya Slotin was officially back in business!
