I'm excited to share the details and inspiration for my eighth historical romance, The Paris Affair! The Paris Affair tells the story of Charlotte Bray who volunteers her French speaking skills to the War Office during WW2. Quickly accepted, she leaves her home in Cornwall for London, not realising that it is the first step on an adventurous, but ultimately dangerous journey to Nazi occupied Paris as a Special Operations Executive agent. Pierre Lesieur, a handsome Frenchman, is with her every step of the way, either by her side or in her head. Unfortunately it appears he is not necessarily on her side. Can she trust him? Can he rely on her?

I ended my last blog post, Writing and Bleeding, by saying I was 'bleeding profusely' at my laptop.  I have to admit, it wasn't quite as horrific as it sounded. In reality, I was researching and writing my latest novel and am now excited to share its title, cover and release details!

Here it is!

Waiting For Our Rainbow is a WW2 romance set in Cornwall and tells the story of Anne, a young Cornish woman, and Joe, an American soldier who has been sent to England to train for the largest amphibious military assault in history, more commonly known as D Day.

Surprising news... but also exciting!

The acquisition was announced to the public through the Bookseller on 29th March, 2023. In the press release Jasper Joffe is quoted as saying...
