Review of GBSR - 11th June, 2012

June 11, 2012 | 4 comments

I haven’t added any reviews of my first novel yet, but Julie from Cataromance wrote a lovely one and it has given me a real lift as I revise Book three. Am loving book three but whole family has been so sick the last two weeks (husband even on antibiotics and he NEVER gets sick) and it has seriously squeezed my writing time and I feel pretty weighed down right now. Fortunately I haven’t come down with anything (touch wood). I think the Universe is looking out for me… But now must get back to the book. I remember reading an interview with Nicholas Sparks who said something like (and I am paraphrasing): writing is hard, writing well is really hard and writing to deadline is excruciating. I might have taken some poetic license with “excruciating”!!

Anyway Julie wrote:

A fantastic debut novel from a marvellous new talent, Girl Behind the Scandalous Reputation is a red-hot tale of powerful emotions, heart-breaking pathos and sizzling romance written with plenty of style and panache! Michelle Conder is a talented storyteller who has crafted a wonderfully compelling story that I found absolutely impossible to put down. With a strong heroine, a wickedly gorgeous hero, heart-pounding emotional tension and dramatic twist and turns that will keep readers on the edge of their seat, Girl Behind the Scandalous Reputation is a first class debut from a wonderful new star of Harlequin Presents: Michelle Conder!
