Dark Horses - Mellett, Manda

. .

Résumé :
Jasim I saved her. She couldn't save me. I was too much for her. She has a great life, playing guitar in a rock band, a bright future ahead of her. I was jaded, too worldly. Too old. I'd only corrupt her, and she doesn't deserve that. She's attracted to me. I'll turn her down gently. I didn't realise how insistent she would be. I didn't understand, she was right. Janna I've never met anyone like him before. A man who doesn't realise how alike we really are. He's awoken something inside of me. I can't put it back in its box. He might run, but I'll follow. I can't let him go. I have to make him understand, his darkest desires match my own. For an over 18 audience only

Biographie:
Manda's life's always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she's still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman? There isn't enough space to list everything that's happened to Manda, or what she's learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she's met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected. Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area's claim to fame being the Wilkin's Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter. Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.
