For twenty-one years, the
focus of Katherine Dale’s life has been her work. Love interests and hobbies
came and went, but what has always been there for her—her only constant other
than her cat delightfully named No. 4—was her nine to five habit. Until she’s
replaced.
With her confidence
dented, Katherine is angry at life and at herself.
She has ignored hints of
“changes to come” in her horoscope forecasts, written by the wonderful and
renowned astrologer, Mark Ainsley-Thomas.
Mark is now an “A” list
celebrity in the UK and his new agent is determined to raise his profile in
America. So, he has to take on the new, and very talented, astrologer James
Kingman to help him run his web-site.
When Katherine discovers
James has been writing the forecasts, rather than Mark, her life explodes in
confusion as the three lives become inextricably tangled. Insecurity,
self-doubt, guilt, stress, and frustration, coupled with village gossips and
merciless reporters wanting eye-catching headlines leave Katherine feeling
vulnerable and in need of guidance.
The stars might be telling
her that love is going to feature in her life, but when Katherine finds herself
implicated in the headlines ‘Mystic Love Triangle’ she’s just as surprised as
everyone else! None of the men in her life are love interests – so what exactly
does fate have in store?

Bristol-born Linn B Halton
lives in the small village of Lydbrook, which nestles on the edge of the Forest
of Dean, in the UK. She resides there with her husband and feline with
'catitude'- Mr Tiggs.
Linn began writing in
March 2009 and her debut novel was published in February 2011. In a recent
interview Linn was asked about genres:
"From a very young
age I knew romantic fiction was always going to be my genre. I am, and will
always be, madly in love with love! Whether that's love of life, a partner, or
the things I'm passionate about.
My stories are about love,
life and real relationships - but romance is always the one thing that holds
each story together. Often there's a light, psychic touch and I never dreamed I
would write drawing upon my personal psychic experiences. But as my interest
and understanding in the subject has grown, it is now such a part of my life
that it finds its way into my fictional tales. However, what is heartening is
that most of my experiences have been uplifting and it's wonderful to know
loved ones are around me always. I hope it will make readers stop and wonder
'What if?'
The result is that I get a
lot of mail from readers who have had similar experiences and some are sharing
theirs for the first time with me. I always feel that's something rather
special and for which I'm very grateful."
Love, life and beyond...
but it's ALWAYS about the romance! Linn is published by HarperImpulse,
Endeavour Press and Sapphire Star Publishing.
Linn is also the managing
editor of Loveahappyending Lifestyle emagazine.

My review
As always, Linn has managed to write a
feel-good, uplifting book that makes you want to keep turning the pages. Many
readers will empathise with Katherine being at a crossroads in her life and trying
to make sense of it by reading her horoscope to get a heads up. When the usual
astronomer takes on as assistant to write the horoscopes instead, Kate’s life
is thrown into even more confusion. I loved the way the relationship between
all three of them developed.
There are some lovely anecdotes too and No4
is a brilliant name for the cat. The way Jake looked out for his elderly
neighbor was very moving too. If you’re looking for a light-hearted yet interesting
book with fabulous characters and a gentle story then look no further. Linn –
you are a star!
