Will she get more than a tan
On an all-expenses-paid holiday, Claudia Taylor jets off to glorious Santorini with her two best friends, Tara and Sophie. But when her simple task of handing over a flash drive becomes complicated, and the handsome Jack tries to romance her, Claudias holiday becomes less relaxing than shed hoped.
Sophie, a former high-flying lawyer turned mother of one, is no longer sure what the future holds. Tara is toying with the idea of leaving her less-than-satisfying job to realize a long-held ambition to be a writer. After taking stock of their lives will they all find what they are looking for
One thing is for sure, life will never be the same for Claudia and her friends after their much-needed holiday in paradise.
I studied as a journalist at Queensland University a hundred years ago. With three children under five, I decided to pursue my passion for writing fiction, specifically stories about women in their thirties and forties, navigating friendships, careers, romance, and ultimately triumphing over adversity. To date, I have six published novels, five with Allen & Unwin. They are Lucy Springer Gets Even, What Kate Did Next, Claudias Big Break, Stella Makes Good, and It Started With A Kiss.I self-published The Callahan Split. My seventh manuscript, Lilys Little Flower Shop is more strongly romance-focussed than my previous stories. Its a fish-out-of-water, coastal romance. I teach Creative Writing at the Australian Writers Centre in Sydney, and have a wide network of authors, readers and presenters that I can tap into. I am a confident and engaging public speaker and have presented workshops and been on panels at the RWA conferences, GenreCon, Sydney Writers Festival, and many regional writers festivals. I have also spoken at, and presented, workshops at numerous libraries throughout Australia. Website: www.lisaheidke.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisa.heidke.author/
