We are disappointed but not surprised that Meta has used millions of pirated books to develop its AI systems. As a matter of urgency, Meta needs to compensate the rightsholders of all the works it has been exploiting. But what can authors do? Read here: societyofauthors.org/2025/03/21/t...

All of my Boldwood babies! I can't wait to share number 7. A makeover story with a twist🧡

We had a mini power cut in the night and the worst part was it reset our coffee machine to ‘low strength’ (why is that even a setting?) and we didn’t notice until AFTER the pot was ready. 😩☕️

This will be such a great event!

I am in my writing cave today, which is one of my favourite places.✨ I’m working on edits for my summer book. It’s a little bit different, possibly, to my other books - but is still a romance set in a beautiful place, and is hopefully fun and intriguing, uplifting and romantic and a bit sexy. 💞

We are so excited to share the beautiful paperback cover of Sunday Times bestselling Funny Story ahead of its release on 27th February! You can pre-order using this link or through your local bookshop: www.waterstones.com/book/funny-s...

I finished @sarramanning.bsky.social’s new book, The Last Days of Summer, yesterday, and you should all preorder it immediately. It is smoulderingly hot 🥵, breathtakingly romantic, laugh-out-loud funny and will tug at ALL your heartstrings. I sobbed. 💔 It is a properly unforgettable book. 💛🩵❤️

I'm delighted to reveal the title for the next Poe & Tilly – out August 14 2025 - THE FINAL VOW If you’d like a chance to win an early copy, make sure you're signed up to my newsletter as most announcements will be going through this first in 2025 🔗 www.thecrimevault.com/landing-page...

Spent this morning finishing The Last Days of Summer by @sarramanning.bsky.social for the second time after inhaling it in one hectic late-night read. If you like romance, grumpy men, missed chances, extremely 🔥🥵 scenes (the pantry!) and a really devastating emotional kick this is for you. Out 3/25.

On Wednesday I sent the first draft of next summer’s book off to my editor and agent. I have had so much fun writing this one, I’m slightly obsessed with my characters - and the setting - and basically I can’t wait to share more details about it. 🌅🏠💌

So 7th book - Beautiful People - is out. People have said very nice things. (Which is up there with cake when it comes to making me smile). The book is about certain privileged folk getting away with bad behaviour, obsession, identity, and a lot of champagne. #beautifulpeople

My latest novel, The Man Of Her Dreams, a steamy, emotional and slightly magical romcom, is 99p for Kindle! The first time it's been discounted. I'm biased but I think it's the perfect autumn read. amzn.to/3Az1DzX

Watched John Wick 4 and I don’t really get what the point of any of it is, except that I hope all four films are basically him avenging Daisy the dog. Also, Lovejoy has aged very well.

David and one of the two, beautiful Siamese cats that visit my parents’ garden (and sometimes the house when they leave the back door open 👀). They are so friendly and have eyes like sapphires. Sometimes I chase cats down the street just so I can get a hug. 😂
