My lovely husband is used to seeing me carrying a bag big enough to house the kitchen sink wherever we go. Other women can get on a plane with a tiny handbag hardly big enough for a credit card and a passport, looking like they stepped off the cover of vogue. Not me.
What if they say they are you?
How many times have you looked up a friends name say on a social media site, or in the 'olden days', in the phone book to be confronted with several people of the same name. Or for instance even several people with the same name as yours?

What can we expect from Taken Identity?
A good read, I hope. A story that grips you, gives you goose bumps and makes you think, what if? A story that grabs you, pulls you into the happenings and makes you go all hot and bothered. Makes you laugh and cry, swear and go…oh yes… Oh and makes you root for Gray and Jules to get their happy ever after.

Writing Romance
How lucky am I? The day I was able to put 'author' in the little box that asks for your status on a form was a red letter day for me. I swear my hand shook as I wrote the word.
