novella is not available to buy this year!
What are the chances?
Every generation has their pop heartthrobs. As a little
child, I remember the bedroom walls of my teenage aunt being plastered with
posters of David Essex and the Bay City Rollers. She used to tell me that one day she would
marry Woody and I actually believed she would! When I got a little older, it
was my turn to stare at posters of Morten Harket on my wall and dream of the
day when he would realise that he was actually in love with a fifteen year old
from Staffordshire, he just didn’t know it because he hadn’t met me. Of course, this is all pie in the sky (unless
you’re one of a very select and rare few throughout pop history), but just
imagine if it were possible. What if you
did meet your idol, the subject of your floaty daydreams? And what it he did fancy you back?
To meet her idol is all Bonnie dreams of in Hopelessly Devoted. The trouble is, she’s in her mid thirties
with a teenage daughter of her own, Paige, who also shares the same fantasies
of meeting young, gorgeous pop heartthrob, Holden Finn. Bonnie has been let
down badly by the men in her life in the past, and pouring all her energies
into dreaming of a man she can never have seems a safe bet. After all, Holden
will never let her down. Holden will always be the impossible, unreachable
image of perfection. So there’s no harm in Bonnie’s little daydreams, surely….
Hopelessly Devoted
There’s only one
man for Bonnie, and that’s Holden Finn. The problem is, Holden Finn a
twenty-something pop megastar with his boy band, Every Which Way, who
doesn’t even know she exists. Not only that, but half the women of the world
want to be Mrs Finn, including Bonnie’s teenage daughter, Paige. But the real
men in Bonnie’s life only let her down, and a man you can never have can never let
you down… right? When Paige wins a radio competition to meet Holden and
his band, it seems all that is set to change. Bonnie is about to find out that
you should be careful what you wish for, and that happiness can come in the
most unexpected shape…
Hopelessly Devoted is due for
release December 2013 but you can get your hands on a free copy by entering the
Hopelessly Devoted blog giveaway. Not
only that, but you’ll also win an exclusive unreleased Christmas novella, Mishaps and Mistletoe, which is only
available by entering the draw.
About Tilly:
Tilly Tennant was
born in Dorset but now lives in Staffordshire with her slightly nutty
family. Tilly is married to Mr Tennant (not that one, though a
girl can dream). After years of dismal and disastrous jobs, including paper
plate stacking, shop girl, newspaper promotions and waitressing (she never
could carry a bowl of soup without spilling a bit), she decided to indulge her
passion for the written word by enrolling on a degree in English and creative writing.
She wrote her first novel in 2007 during her first summer break at university
and has not stopped writing since. She also works as a freelance editor, and
considers herself very lucky that this enables her to read many wonderful books
while getting paid for it.
