The Lady Loves





 The Herbalist is reviewed over at Jennifer Ryan's gorgeous website The Lady Loves Books today, you can read what she thought HERE

The Herbalist spent eight weeks on the Original Fiction Top Ten bestseller list here in Ireland, and has just gone into reprint. It's due to be published in the UK on September 26th (and is also available in Canada.) In the meantime, I'm finishing the first draft of a new novel and trying to write stories, but until the kids are back in school its difficult nigh impossible to get a clear run at things, it would be nice to be more productive but I'll make do with being patient :) Roll on September!
