I do believe falling in love is a beautiful thing but sleeping with another person behind the back of your caring/loving partner is cruel, even in fiction.

I'm interested in your thoughts on the title, as it's called The Perfect Happiness in the US, which might be a better title - I totally agree with your thoughts on the cover - sadly I have no say, but wishy washy is an understatement. Anyway, thank you for writing such nice things about the book and I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. I loved writing it and am now editing the next, due out August 2011. Best wishes to you and your team at Chiclitblog and my hearfelt thanks!!

I fell inlove with it, sitting in my pjs with a cup of coffee and the book for the WHOlE day! I live in Cape Town and it was SO cool to read about my own surroundings in such a beautiful book. It was more close to reality. SA is not just about crime. I'm still inlove with the Mother city. The book is a definite must!wyvettenoreply@blogger.com
