Australian Reading Hour 2021

I am thrilled to have been chosen as an Australia Reads Ambassador this year, especially as I have just published my 5th book with HarperCollins and am currently writing my 8th!

To mark this very special day, I have a treat for you. I have recorded the first chapter of my latest book, The Dating Game.

Here’s the blurb:

Abby Jones has a secret identity …

While her dream is to be an investigative journalist, in her ‘day job’ she is the Anastasia Blabbergasted, Queen of Snark and illustrious recapper of British reality television shows for online magazine, Feed Your Mind. When a recap of reality dating show, The Stag, goes viral, the show’s producers practically insist that she joins next season’s cast, undercover as a Doe – won’t that make her recaps all the spicier! Abby’s editor is all for the idea, but Abby can’t think of anything worse – even though next season is filming in Sydney!

That is until Abby meets gorgeous Australian, Jack – rescuer from murderous elevator doors and the producer of the show. With the opportunity to write a juicy tell-all and perhaps break out of recapping once and for all, a free trip to Sydney, and (let’s face it) more time with the gorgeous Aussie, Abby looks on the bright side, donning a whole new persona as ‘Doe Abby’.

The adventure (really) begins in Sydney when Abby meets the rest of the cast – eleven other Does and Daniel, the Stag – while failing miserably to keep her crush on Jack in check. Lots of madcap fun and romantic adventures ensure – all with the backdrop of one of the world’s most beautiful cities.

And here’s the recording:

If you enjoyed that and you’d like to read The Dating Game, find out where to get it here.

Have a great day everyone!
