Love how similar the cover for MY HUSBAND'S STALKER ended up being to my mood board. I was imagining pink...but the red is way more dramatic 😍

My new thriller, MY HUSBAND'S STALKER, is out 25 March! What would you do if your husband's stalker told you he was dangerous? Would you believe your perfect husband...or the woman out to harm him? Pre-order at geni.us/B0GF2WX9FTau... (just £1.99 on Kindle or FREE on Kindle Unlimited)

I should post more on here, but did you know I'm now part of the team for the inaugural London Latino Film Festival? We're INCREDIBLY excited to bring Latino cinema to the UK in Sept 2026. We have some huge names involved and lots of fun events. It's going to be epic! Watch this space 🎬🍿

Today I'm in Female First sharing 7 surprising things you may not know about me... www.femalefirst.co.uk/books/7-surp...

First 2 Netgalley reviews for THE EX I BURIED are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️...yayyyy!!!

Morning Kittens

I got to meet Terence Stamp twice through work. He was the most charming and suave man I've ever met.

Yeah, because he didn't have to manage 6 different social media accounts and make stupid content in Canva with info graphics about fruit flies and videos entitled 'Follow me as I explore the Galapagos islands.' No, he was left alone to actually write stuff!

Love getting tagged in positive reviews about GOOD GIRLS DIE LAST - but considering the book is feminist af, it especially means a lot when the reviews are from men 💖

Never has anything resonated with me more. There are two types of people in this world. I promise that if you are bold and brave enough to live your life to the fullest, the world and everyone in it will suddenly appear to be so much better than before!

This is not caused primarily by "screen time". It's been caused by the mass eradication of third places for young people in basically every city over the past three decades - and a society that's hostile to the concept of teens socialising in public spaces. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Another 2,333 words written this morning alongside three articles for various publications and tomorrow's class slides finished. Maybe I should have breakfast and get out of my PJs now?

I remember when reaching 100 Amazon reviews felt like such a huge achievement and here I am with over 900 for MY DAUGHTER'S REVENGE (and a whopping 4.4/5 too). Please keep them coming because when I reach 1,000 I'm doing a cool giveaway 🔥🔥🔥

I can't tell you what it means to me to be tagged in posts like this 😍

Calling all book bloggers!!! ** Eva hasn't seen her ex-boyfriend in ten years...and now his mother thinks she killed him ** If you'd like an early copy of THE EX I BURIED (out 29 Sept) please comment and I'll send you my publicist's email address 💙 geni.us/B0FJFJPQ96au...

Good morning 🌞

It's been a busy 5 years. THE PATH KEEPER trilogy is now out of print, so I'm not including it here (I have plans for that...watch this space), but I have one more Blood Web book out by the end of this year AND another thriller out March 2026 - which will be my 13th published book. Wild! 😍😍😍

Had the perfect day yesterday eating a Korean lunch, L'Eto cakes, then Russian food and vodka shots with @jaxsilvester.bsky.social @justmarvewrites.bsky.social and our friend Demet 💖 (I'm loving my new London life)

My next thriller, THE EX I BURIED, is full of small town gossip, lies and secrets. When Eva is forced to revisit her childhood home for her ex-boyfriend's funeral, someone she hasn't seen in ten years, the last thing she expects is to be accused of his death! Out 29 Sept 💀 amzn.eu/d/aXQo1I1

Absolutely wild that pre-orders are going so well for THE EX I BURIED that it's ranking better on Amazon than any of my other books 😃 I had a lot of fun writing this one - loads of bitchy characters, gossip, secrets, and lies, set over the Christmas period. Plenty of festive fear! amzn.eu/d/aZ2kpkM

COVER REVEAL!! My next thriller, THE EX I BURIED, is out 28 Sept. Eva hasn't seen her ex-boyfriend for ten years...yet everyone thinks she killed him 😱 Preorder now: amzn.eu/d/aaMmaQf

Hello, lovely writers... I'm gutted I can't be at #Harrogate this year, but this is life right now ⬇️ I have a cold, today I have a (minor) hospital procedure, and in a couple of days I leave the Netherlands and move back home to London for good. You'll be having more fun than me this weekend!

If you're really hot and sweaty and irritated af why not read about a woman who is also hot and sweaty and irritated af...except with added murder? GOOD GIRLS DIE LAST is a blisteringly gritty, feminist, thriller and top authors have said lovely things about it - amzn.eu/d/6RROlRw

Great thread for one of my favourite zombie movies (and favourite directors)

Facebook reminding me that 4 years ago today I had a different agent, who liked 4 of my MG ideas, that became two books, that got nowhere. Now I have a different (brilliant) agent and I don't write manga or kids books and I'm doing great with my thrillers. Don't stagnate, people. Keep on moving 🩷
