My book in the wild! Seen at our local garden centre - I didn't even know it was there. Might pop in and sign them!

Going through my #spotifywrapped with my daughter. I thought this was cutesy and very me.

Her: They’re calling you basic, mum.

#SpotifyWrapped was exactly as I expected and what it always is. Top Artist is forever Tove Lo ❤️

This year I mostly listened to songs I wrote to.

When I visited my sister in WA last year, I was a woman on the edge because of all the nature. She lives on a farm between Albany and Esperance. There are snakes living under the house.

LOVE UNCHAINED - What I #amwriting

A sports romance about the Tour de France, the worlds biggest bike race.

A cycling bad boy with a penchant for speed and stage wins. A ex pro's daughter who's out for a good time. Will it be l'amour on Le Tour?
A road cyclist with tour de france spectators and text that reads: LOVE UNCHAINED. When marketing asistant Raleigh is sent to cover a pro cycling team's social media during the world's biggest bike race, she is given one rule: do not distract Sem, their lead rider. But he's never been one to play by the rules. So why start now, on his final chance to win?

THE MATCHMAKERS - what I #amquerying

MAFS x Love Island x The Charm Offensive. Fans of Lizzy Dent or Lia Louis will enjoy!

(Lit agents - if this feels like something you'd like to read, please get in touch, or it may well be in your slush pile already!)
A bride and groom holding hands with the text: THE MATCHMAKERS. Abby and Fraser just got married on TV... But Abby and Fraser have met before. Can they (fake) fall in love to win the competition. Text that reads: Abby and Fraser are newlyweds, having just married on TV, but Abby and Fraser are not a match made in heaven. She’s looking for The One, whilst all he wants is to present a show on Radio One. Following a massive honeymoon blowout and excruciating on-screen apology, they make a pact to fake fall in love to win the prize; a luxury Cotswolds love nest and six-figure cash sum. But as the weeks progress, and Abby and Fraser learn more and more about each other, they begin to question if they were ever really faking anything at all, and when their plan is thwarted, they must decide if their match is strong enough to withstand strict clauses in their contracts, as well as sabotage from inside the production. Trope list: haters to lovers, MAFS inspired romcom, UK setting, dual POV, fake dating, forced proximity, HEA.

SWIPE RIGHT - the fun followup. Like When Harry Met Sally, if they worked at Buzzfeed.

www.amazon.co.uk/Swipe-Right-...
Book cover of Swipe Right by Stephie Chapman. A yellow background with a red heart, and figures in the corners. Text that reads: "When Fran meets Ollie, it’s eye roll at first sight. Forced into working together at a trendy media content agency, at first they butt heads, but soon realise they could be BFFs. When Ollie embarks on a round the world adventure with his girlfriend, Fran starts an anon dating blog, but on her dating journey of discovery, she’s about to learn that sometimes love can be where you least expect it… you just have to put down your phone"

CALL ME MAYBE - the cutesy debut. A rockstar romance for people who fancied Taylor Hanson.

www.amazon.co.uk/Call-Me-Mayb...
Book cover for Call Me Maybe by Stephie Chapman. A blue background with music notes, a record, and two cityscapes. Blue background with text that reads, "When Cassie sends Jesse, her 1990's boyband crush, a friend request on Facebook, she doesn't expect him to actually accept it, or fall in love with her. Is she abut to live out her teenage dream, or is it all just a bit too good to be true?"

Post you from a different era…

Pic 1: L-R my sister, me, our mama. About 2007?!

Pic 2: a drunken evening out in sixth form. 2001. Definitely utilising some fake ID here. I’m still besties with Ve, on the far left.

I’ve had a LUSH time in Edinburgh, as always! Spent some quality time with my husband 😍

Someone bought my book whilst I was in the shop and I signed it for her and she wanted a photo!

There she is in the background of the third pic. In the red coat! Hope she likes it!
