Nick Alexander


  • Everyone dreams of escaping the rat-race of the city to sunny bliss in foreign climes - but what happens when you make the dream a reality?
    A number 1 e-book hit: a fresh take on the eternal quest for happiness.
    CC is trapped by a job she no longer loves in an unfriendly city. So when her new boyfriend decides it's time to sell up and move to the South of France, she decides in seconds to change her life. After all, who wouldn't pick an azure sea, aperitifs and sunshine over a dreary commute and a rainy climate?
    She hadn't expected a tumbledown farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. Or a motley assortment of surly builders, eccentric farmers and a resentful, terrifying neighbour - who happens to be her boyfriend's aunt.
    Suddenly, CC's dream of a place in the sun is looking more like a nightmare. Does she have the courage to stick it out, and make a home of her French house?
    From the reviews of The Case of the Missing Boyfriend:
    “Alexander has written a hugely loveable book, endearingly funny, bang up to date and spot on the truth.” Red magazine

    ALL THAT GLITTERS
    Aita Ighodaro
    Isabel doesn’t want a tycoon. She wants to be one.

    Isabel Suarez-Octavio is ravishing, intelligent, and fiercely ambitious. But unlike most of her friends, she’s not planning to use her looks to seduce a billionaire and become someone’s trophy wife. She’s just arrived at Oxford University, and she is determined to make her mark on her world.
     
    In the city of dreaming spires, Isabel’s own dreams are realised. The picnics are riotous, the parties thrilling, and the people are the power brokers of tomorrow. Before long, Isabel is prowling the corridors of Westminster by day, partying in Miami by night: a rising star pursuing good times and a glittering career.
     
    Until a yacht trip along Italy’s glamorous Amalfi Coast goes horribly wrong. Suddenly, Isabel is in the frame for murder, standing utterly alone against some of the world’s most powerful men. After years of looking after her future, she must finally confront the secrets of her past and face her biggest challenge yet.
