New Work in Progress

With my first two novels doing so well on kindle, I thought I would blog about my WIP, The Greek Tycoon's Secret Daughter. I find that if I discuss my work as I write, it defines and hones the characters into shape and  helps me decide where the story is going. I am not the sort of writer that knows exactly what is going to happen before they type the first word. I work from a rough outline and allow  my characters the freedom to make up their own minds - they usually know much better than me what they want.

I am having a lot of fun with this one, Charlotte is certainly headstrong enough to take the reins from my hands and as for Jonathan, well, if mean and moody is your bag, then he has it all. I look forward to updating you on its progress.

The plot so far.

Charlotte Martin's four year old son has cerebal palsy and only an expensive operation can ensure he retains his mobility. But the only place the operation can be performed is in the USA. Charlotte's problem is that she is penniless and has nobody to turn to for help and so is forced to search for her natural father, Greek tycoon, Nicoli Barberis, to ask for his help.
Beyond all her hopes Nicoli welcomes them with open arms and is eager to make up for the lost years. The only fly in the ointment comes in the form of Nicoli's stepson and heir, the devastatingly handsome, John Barberis-Jones, who is not prepared to share either his step-father or his inheritance.  
The Greek Tycoon's Secret Daughter is a passionate story of pride, love and compromise.
