London Book Signings in September

Look what just washed up on the beach!

The truth is, I finally caved and decided to publish Lust, Money & Murder, Book 1, 2 & 3 as a paperback.  The main reason I am doing this is to have physical copies of my books to sign for readers.

I am traveling to London in September to hold three informal book signings/reader chat sessions at the following times and locations (for maps click on the links):

Wednesday, September 16th - The Book Club Cafe 18.00-20.00

Friday, September 18th - Waterstone's Picadilly (cafe)  17.00-19.00

Sunday, September 20th - Fix 126 Cafe - 14.00-16.00

If you live in the London area and want a signed copy of Lust, Money & Murder 1, 2 & 3,  please order now from Amazon and don't forget to bring it with you.  (No copies will be available to buy at the venues, sorry)  If you're not interested owning a signed book, please come by and chat anyway--I always enjoy talking to my readers and other writers.

I look forward to seeing you in London!

Mike

P.S.  I hope I can hold the same events in other parts of the world soon.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I want to wish all my readers a Happy Valentine's Day, and this year, I have a special treat for you--today I am officially releasing my newest book, Forbidden:  A Novel of Love and Betrayal, which I co-wrote with romance author Devika Fernando.  I'm really excited about this series--Devika came up with a brilliant story premise that we developed together, each of us writing different sections as first drafts and then combining and editing the final pages together.  As the plot unfolds, I think you'll be quickly caught up with the characters and steadily increasing Hitchcock-style suspense.  In short, I believe it is as "unputdownable" as any of my other books.  It's probably most similar to Passion, Power & Sin.  And Book 1 is a free download on almost all the major ebook retailer sites (links below)!

Here is the synopsis:

When Lady Eleanor Sotheby unexpectedly enters the life of Jayne Clark, a 23-year old waitress from Wichita, Kansas, Jayne's world is turned upside down. Not only is she welcomed into a family that she never knew, but she is thrust headlong into the highest strata of European society. Nothing is too grand in the fairy tale lives of the uber-rich--the spectacular seaside villas, the sleek, chauffeured limousines, the outrageously expensive designer clothes. When Jayne plays her part and learns to fit into this new world, she meets Robert Astor, the man of her dreams. But her feelings for Robert are forbidden. Jayne's heady new life begins to unravel into a dark web of deceit, domination and greed...and she ultimately finds herself confronting an evil that truly has no limits.
