The queue for the counter was backed up though so I ended up waiting in line, hoping it would go down quickly so I could escape. When she is not busy playing with her imaginary book friends (or talking about them with real life friends!) she can usually be found studying or carrying out her ordinary mum/housewife/all round slave duties!Īfter draining the cup, I began my journey through the maze of tables, chairs and caffeine addicts towards the exit. Nicola lives in Rochdale, England with her husband and four children and she is the author of New Adult/Contemporary romance novels Inevitable, Saving Amy and the Take My Hand series. Turns out, even the strongest of people need someone to lean on sometimes.

Their journey together may have started with fun, games and alcohol – but it seems the future has other ideas. But what happens when the lines of friendship start to blur? How will they cope when the sides of themselves they’ve kept hidden from the world for so long begin to show? They share the same sense of fun, their personalities bounce off one another perfectly and perhaps inevitably, they become best friends.

With Emily and Dexter away in the States, Rachel and Jared are left behind to keep each other company. He’s happy living the bachelor life on his father’s credit card, takes nothing seriously and wouldn’t know difficulty if it slapped him in the face. Jared Mattheson on the other hand, is more than a little goofy and a whole lot of carefree. She’s outgoing, adventurous and would chop off her right arm before caring what other people think of her or her disability. Book Title: Lean on Me (A Take My Hand Novel)
