Here it is! The new cover for my debut novel Baggy Pants & Bootees
- now available as an e-book and coming out in paperback soon.
When war baby Sophie joins the macho world of
1960s journalism she’s determined to
prove that she’s ‘one of the boys.‘ But her career is threatened by a phone call from her estranged
mother setting Sophie on a quest to uncover the secret of her birth.
Was her father the all-American soldier she
dreamt of when she was a child, or someone far more sinister? This is the story
the ambitious reporter was destined to write.
Helped by the charming but mysterious David,
Sophie uncovers a heartbroken wartime orphan, a GI
romance and a terrifying rape that leads to an innocent man’s court martial – and finds clues
to her own unhappy childhood.
Torn between her secret love for Steve, the
newspaper’s most eligible
bachelor, and her desire to know who she really is, Sophie follows David to search
for her father. Only when faced with the startling truth can she accept the
tragedy of love, loss and betrayal, and begin a very different kind of future.

That's wonderful Marilyn! I really love it. You must be very proud - we certainly are. Congratulations on a super new look. Xx
I'm excited and nervous about the launch, Elaine. Holding a copy of my debut novel in my hand is something I've been looking forward to for a very long time!
Oh hello ! So excited for you and us :)) Soon as I can grab another few minutes time I am going to order. Just up to my eyeballs right now (())
That's so very kind of you, Francie - I know how busy you are...Thanks for stopping by....
Congratulations, Marilyn! It sounds a fabulous story and one which I would very much like to read. I'm adding it to the To Be Read list :)
Thanks, Sharon. You've really made my day :)
Congratulations, Marilyn! It sounds like a really good story. I am going to treat myself to a copy when the paperback comes out. I’m pretty old-fashioned and still prefer to hold a book in my hands, especially when reading in bed. I’m just catching up on all your posts. I may not comment on them all but I do read them. Have a good weekend, Barbara.
Not long to go now - very exciting times Marilyn. Xx
Thanks Barbara, and Elaine. It's great to have your support. xx
