Sam Sweet is a failed psychiatric nurse from a sink estate in Weston Super mare. Her mother, whose husband ran off with another woman 20 years ago - although you'd think it happened only yesterday - has only one ambition and that is to be a grandmother.
But Sam is terrified of giving birth. She is easily traumatised and has no ambition to return to the sink estate and have dozens of children. She just wants a chance to do something with her life first, to fall in love, to see a bit of the world. Alas, in a drunken stupor she meets Simon - the psychopathic surgeon, who promises her a wonderful life and she believes him - because she is a dingbat and has a lot to learn.
Her latest job is injecting facial fillers and clients are suing because it’s going lumpy. And her best friend, also her boss, is sexually jealous to the point of blind rage because her boyfriend fancies Sam and does little to hide it.
Sam is coping - by shopping and over eating chocolate. But soon piles on weight and sinks deeply into debt, at which point Simon the surgeon starts playing serious mind games; and by the time it dawns on Sam just what a horrific mess she's in - well might as well pass her the JCB because she keeps on digging.
Then as the company spirals downwards and all knives are out for survival - a new MD is brought in from the states – Joel – WOWEE - Madison! Sam and he instantly fall for each other but...her mother is now going bonkers - has booked the wedding....with the psychopathic surgeon....oh it's getting worse.......fireworks? You bet....but that would be telling......
I also have short stories in various anthologies & 14 short comedies/fairy tale spoofs on alfiedog.com, plus an inclusion in their brand new comedy collection, 'Essence of Humour,' out NOW!

Finally - my debut comedy novel, Expected - is now out!!! Published by Crooked Cat Publishing in June 2013, and available as an e-book or paperback.
I now live in Dorset after many years of living in Sheffield, Yorkshire, UK. I started out as a nurse and then spent nearly 20 years in pharmaceutical sales and marketing. I've now been writing for 8 years - I write to entertain the reader, it's a compulsion not an indulgence. I have to do it...I really hope people like what they read!
