      How To Keep A Secret is an exciting new direction for me. I’ve always written about relationships, but previously my main focus has been on the romance between the two central characters.

      I wanted to broaden that to include the relationship between sisters, friends, mother and child, grandparent and grandchild. I wanted to create more complex, layered characters and to explore them in more depth.

      This book has interwoven story lines, all of them connected, and tracks the shifting nature of relationships within one family. There is still romance, but also an exploration of broader themes and a cast of multi-generational characters.

      Unlike my previous books, this story won’t be part of a series and I hope readers will enjoy having the whole reading experience in one book.

      Being able to write something a little different has been satisfying and exciting for me. I can’t wait to hear what readers think.

      Thank you for reading.

       For my sister (from whom I have no secrets!)

       If I could have chosen my sister, I would have chosen you.

      For there is no friend like a sister

      In calm or stormy weather;

      To cheer one on the tedious way,

      To fetch one if one goes astray,

      To lift one if one totters down,

      To strengthen whilst one stands.

      Christina Georgina Rossetti
