Jaimie Roberts (jaimiekinks) | 15 comments Hi, I have just finished writing my very first novel and quite excited about it now. Problem is I have read over it a few times and I feel I now need a fresh pair of eyes to help me. Would anyone be interested? Please see my Synopsis below if this helps:-

Ana Kavanagh has not led the most ordinary life. From a child she was placed from one home to another as her mother went through men like some women went through chocolate. Now at the age of 22 she has completed her Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, has a fantastic job as a Crime Analyst and lives and works with a man called Jake Bennett that she cannot shake out of her head no matter how hard she tries. This man has been her obsession since the first day they met, but there is only one major obstacle standing in her way. He’s getting married to her mother.

When her mother Stella decides to suddenly flee once more Ana and Jake are left with his 16 year old son Matthew to try to carry on with life as normal, but an unexpected turn of events pushes them both closer together creating the most intense mind-blowing relationship any of them have ever encountered. The chemistry between them is electric and Jake’s caveman tendencies have Ana both irritated and turned on all at the same time. Unfortunately for them all is not perfect in the Bennett household when a serial killer on the loose seems to have an unhealthy obsession towards Ana. Jake being Captain of Fairfax Country tries his best to keep Ana safe and protected from harm whilst Ana desperately tries to keep a dark skeleton hidden in her closet from leaking out to the ones she loves. Things get worse when Ana discovers a note on her pillow from the killer and the events that unfold from this point on threatens to tear apart their relationship forever.

What do you think?

Many thanks,

Jaimie.

Jaimie Roberts (jaimiekinks) | 15 comments Hi Alyssa,

I have already had a couple of people read my novel. I'm now just tentatively putting my book out there to a handful of agents.

I appreciate your offer.

Many thanks,

Jaimie.

Priscilla Olivier | 26 comments WOW Jaimie! Your book sounds riveting. The kind of stuff movies are made of. If you need an extra beta reader, I will gladly read it, even though I'm new at beta reading. :))

Jaimie Roberts (jaimiekinks) | 15 comments Thanks Priscilla. I appreciate that. I'm already on my second book called 'Take it Deep.' I left the last one on a major cliff-hanger which I've been told off about so I feel it necessary to get on and finish Jake and Ana's story. I'll let you know once it's out there. I may very well self-publish but I'm not too sure as yet. It's still early days.

Priscilla Olivier | 26 comments That sounds great Jaimie. If you would like to swop, you can beta read mine as well; its a romance paranormal.

Jean Tallman | 6 comments I think dating your moms boyfriend sounds like a bad idea, but I will read anything. Happy to help you in the future. Jeantallman@gmail.com

Jaimie Roberts (jaimiekinks) | 15 comments Thanks for your messages. I'm currently thinking to self publish at the moment so will let you know once a final decision is made. I'm about quarter of the way through the second book right now and there's lots of surprises in store!!

I have added a couple of more chapters and changed things around a bit since my first draft. I'm very excited and very nervous now.
