Pieces of Lies

Released 7th January 2013

Synopsis:

Passionately driven artist, Norah Ross, has been banished from New York to Morewell for her final semester of graphic design at McLaren University. Her move allows her to reconnect with Josh, her best friend, who is more then thrilled at Norah's appearance back into his life.

At the same time that Norah steps back into Josh's heart, she learns that he is in the process of being accepted into McLaren's uber exclusive secret society, the 'Lappell'. Josh takes Norah to the Lappell's glamorous parties in the hope of taking their friendship to the next level, but when Norah meets the handsome and elusive Clint Weston, a leader in the Lappell, he sweeps her off her feet in more ways then one.

Norah quickly becomes caught up in an emotional tug-of-war between the two guys while also trying to deal with her own secrets that follow her every day. When Norah's past begins to intertwine with her present, what unfolds is a series of dramatic events filled with romance, mystery and dark motivations. She quickly realizes the path to real love can be paved in all kinds of lies.


About the author (GR profile)

"I am happiest when Im writing and am currently writing the sequel to Pieces of Lies due out mid 2013. Im a lover of books, art & fine art photography, movies, rock music, creative vision and imagination, and most of all, I love to find beauty in imperfection. I'm 33 years old, a mother of two, a wife, and a mental artist. I have a ninja cat called 'Slash' (after Guns n' Roses) and a beagle called 'Beagles'. I'm addicted to coffee, coconut macarons and wine, and I'm passionately obsessed with life & love. I am also inspired by the quote by Ernest Hemingway which says, "Live the full life of the mind, exhilarated by new ideas, intoxicated by the romance of the unusual."

Fast 5 Questions

1. Can you describe your write style in one sentence?

I would say it's a little wordy and enthusiastic, but then again, so am I, but it's my artistic outlet, the way I express myself, so I jump in whole heartedly.

2. What are your top 5 books

1. Pride and Predjudice by Jane Austen
2. American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis
3. Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice
4. The Fifty Shades trilogy by E.L James
5. The Opportunist / Dirty Red series by Tarryn Fisher

3. If you were not writing what would you be doing instead?

Movie Critic. I love movie scripts as much as books. There is so much creative vision in making a script come to life. I spent countless hours growing up analyzing and memorizing scripts in movies by Quentin Tarrantino, Martin Scorsese, Guy Ritchie, John Hughes...to name a few... and at present, I'm currently obsessed with Christopher Nolan's scriptwriting. 

4. If you had to give up all but one of the following what would you keep. Facebook, Twitter, your phone or your laptop?

Laptop. Had a meltdown recently when my laptop broke down and I had to replace it. My family and myself would certainly say laptop! I write on my laptop, surf the net, stay connected with friends and family all over the world. It's part of the family :-) 

5. Lastly, if you had to recommend one author other than yourself who would it be and why?

Tarryn Fisher. I think she is one to watch. I love her writing style. It has an edge and a sense of reality to the characters that I just adore and can relate to on so many levels. Her stories are unpredictable and she doesn't seem to care that her characters are not always likeable. I love that boldness about her work. It's risky and raw and very entertaining.
