The Hobbit by J R R Tolkien
'Miller's energetic writing style drove things along at a brisk pace and the story was a joy from intriguing start to cliff-hanger finish.'
Georgina Fame - whose famous weight loss program has made her a tidy fortune - makes her glittering entrance at the Hambly-Joneses dinner where she unwittingly ruffles more than a few feathers. When she organises a retreat to Cornwall, how will an encounter with the past shake her carefully built confidence?
Having become quite the celebrity, Diana Fortune employs fellow actor Camilla Barrington-Smythe to help her put the newly formed Fortunettes through their paces. As a case of bullying threatens to unbalance the group, will Camilla find the strength to push her own prejudices aside?
Newcomer Lucy Whittaker settles into village life now that her son Ian is ensconced at University. However, she's blindsided when Ian announces that he's off on an internship abroad. After a harsh exchange of words will Lucy's worst fears be realised when he goes completely off the radar?
New GP Pradeep Chandola is given a mixed welcome when he arrives in the Hamptons with his wife and daughter. Desperate to make a good impression he becomes oblivious to the drama unfolding behind his own front door with disastrous consequences.
It's a busy day for Sergeant Matt Hudson as he is pulled from one call to another. How will Matt ever find true love surrounded by so much chaos?
Praise for Fame and Fortune:
'. scratch below the surface and things aren't as rosy as they first seem: the author shakes things up with themes of bullying, child disappearance and drug use. There's even a fatal shooting to contend with.'
' The author has a clever knack of drawing you into the story so that you feel a part of it. Love, danger and mystery, this book has it all.'
'FAME and FORTUNE is full of twists and unexpected turns with a surprise finish they even I didn't see coming Now, I'm wondering what the Author will think of next? '
