It’s been quite an interesting four weeks! I returned from a wonderful visit with my daughters in Victoria, only to be struck down with a flu-like bug that kept me in bed for two weeks. Thankfully, I’m back on my feet now.
💖 Book News This project is especially close to my heart, and I’m thrilled that it’s nearly finished. In the Shadows of a Lie, my second New Zealand story, has been translated into German and will soon be available! Here’s a look at the beautiful cover:
🌊 Something New I’ve also just started a brand-new project — finally, a story set in Tasmania again. I can’t wait to see where these characters will take me, and I’ll be sure to keep you updated as it unfolds.
Thank you, as always, for being part of this journey with me. Your support and love for these stories mean the world.
Much love to all of you and please stay safe, look after yourself ♥♥♥
Some inherit money. Mallory inherited secrets… Mallory O’Neill swaps the buzz of Melbourne for the quiet shores of Anahera Bay, New Zealand, hoping for a fresh start… not secrets and surprises. But the crumbling seaside cottage left to her by Sofia—the grandmother she never knew—holds more than just dust and disrepair. It holds the key to a family history her late mother never spoke of. As Mallory pieces together Sofia’s past, she faces the doubts of old friends and the arrival of an unexpected stranger. Along the way, she finds friendships among the locals, but she also meets resistance from the brooding handyman, Cameron Quinn, a man haunted by his own past. When faded letters, old photographs, and buried truths come to light, Mallory and Cameron find themselves drawn together by grief, memory, and a spark neither of them expected.
