Time sure does fly- whether you are having fun or not! I didn't realize more than two months have passed since my last post.  I have been exceptionally busy with Jake and Sabina. And that villain I am really beginning to dislike although I know the story is fictional.


Today I want to introduce you to an author who will be making his debut in 2016, Mr. Ben Starling.  I am acquainted with Ben and this fact has had me thinking of dolphins, marinas and romance every time I see a photo or movie with a beach scene. And this is because of a great job on Ben’s part spreading the word about his upcoming book.  The title and cover are yet to be revealed but take a look at the synopsis for his upcoming novel:



















What if to be with the man of your dreams… you had to give up your life? On the verge of losing her job, a side-lined journalist is forced to travel to the South Pacific to untangle a mystery where she meets a reclusive ex-boxer with a message. When a syndicate of corporate criminals invades paradise, she must either defend the island with her life or accept the plum promotion that will save her career.

Ben Starling is passionate about marine conservation and boxing, both central themes in his upcoming novel. His interest in marine life has taken him across three continents over the past three decades.
He is Oxford’s only ever Quintuple Blue (varsity champion five years running), was Captain of the university boxing team, and coached and boxed competitively until about five years ago. Ben graduated from Oxford University with a Master of Arts and an M Phil. He was born in the USA but has lived in the UK since childhood.
You can visit and connect with Ben at http://www.ben-starling.com And Ben, I hope you took a close look at the header photo of the blog; I was changing it to reflect the usual tropical theme and I selected this image as I thought it was an excellent choice given today’s post.
