Guestpost & GIVEAWAY Lisa Worrall : Un-Expected

Danielle

Un-Expected 400x600

Writing with someone else can be a stressful business, especially when you’re friends, so when Sue Brown (my literary bestie) suggested we write a series together I was a little dubious—for about ten seconds. We wanted to write something set in the UK and, although they seem to be dying out a little now, we wanted a quintessentially English village setting.

 

Usually when you co-write, you each do a chapter a piece and bounce it back and forth between each other, but we thought it would suit our own schedules better if we wrote a book each. Then the reader gets all of me and all of Sue and doesn’t have to wonder about who wrote what. And, we thought it would be interesting, not only for the reader but for us as well, if we introduced the characters for the next author to write about in the previous book, to enable the reader to already have an investment in what happens to them next.

 

Un-Expected is the first book in the series about Micah and his college sweetheart Harry, who turns up in the village six years after breaking Micah’s heart, with a very pregnant partner in tow. It’s been a blast so far and I know Sue is looking forward to getting to grips with Tom and Jason, who I set up for her. And I am looking forward to seeing what she comes up with, and we hope the readers are, too!

 

 

Blurb:  Little Mowbury is a sleepy English village deep in the Cotswolds. The kind of village where you’re only a local if your lineage can be traced back to the dinosaurs. Where you can find everything in the single shop from morning newspapers to dry-cleaning, and getting your shoes mended. And, of course, where everybody knows everybody else’s business. It’s easy to find… you can’t miss it… just ask anyone and they’ll tell you… “It’s left at the crossroads.”

 

After being dumped on graduation day by the love of his life, Harry Boyd, Micah Lewis returned to the sleepy village he grew up in. Living next door to his mother wasn’t his best idea, granted, but when your heart was broken, there really was no place like home.

 

Six years later, secure and content in his job as midwife for a local birthing centre, the last person he expected to move into Lilac Cottage across the street from him was Harry Boyd. Seeing Harry again sends Micah into a tailspin and opens wounds he thought had long since healed. Although, Harry himself isn’t the only issue Micah has to face. That would be Harry’s very beautiful and very pregnant partner, Selena. But is everything as it seems?

 

Author bio:

I live in a small seaside town just outside London, on the South coast of Essex, England that boasts the longest pier in the world; where I am ordered around by two precocious children and a dog who thinks she’s the boss of me.

 

I’ve been writing seriously for three years now and love giving voice to the characters warring to be heard in my head, and am currently petitioning for more hours in the day, because I never seem to have enough of them.

 

I like nothing more than bringing together two people in interesting and sometimes bizarre ways, and hope that the readers enjoy the characters’ journey as much as they and I do.
