| Product DescriptionSometimes, the hardest part of finding love is keeping a straight face...
For Jamie Newman, being a single guy isn't proving to be much fun, especially when confronted with a sexually belligerent divorcee and a goddess so far out of his league she might as well be a different species.
Mind you, being a girl in search of love isn't a bowl of cherries either. Just ask Laura McIntyre, who's recently contended with a horny estate agent on a quest for light relief and a rabid mountain bike enthusiast with a penchant for displaying his genitals.
When Jamie and Laura bump into one another (quite literally) it looks like their luck may have changed - but sometimes finding the right person is only the start of your problems...
Based on real-life tales of dating disaster and relationship blunders, Love... From Both Sides is a warts-and-all romantic comedy for everyone who knows how tricky (and occasionally ridiculous) the quest for love can be.
Reviews:
"I can't count the amount of times I laughed out loud whilst reading and I love that it was based on real life dating stories." - Amazon reviewer
"Its funny, sweet, excruciating and touching all at the same time. I really felt for the two main characters and was cheering them on, hoping they would work things out in the end." - Amazon Reviewer"I have never read what I class a chick lit book written by a man before, as I just didn't think the two would go together, but I am truly converted." - Amazon Reviewer
"I've never laughed at a book so much in my life. This is a book about finding love, told (uniquely as far as I'm aware) from the perspective of both the guy and the girl." - Amazon Reviewer
"Imagine your worst date when everything goes completely wrong and you want to run for the hills. I laughed so much I started crying more than once." - Amazon reviewer
Contains strong language and adult humour.

Now nature's impending fury threatens to expose long-buried secrets.

Josie, once a hot-shot criminal defense attorney, left the fast track behind for a small practice in Hermosa Beach, California. But Hannah Sheraton intrigues her and, when the girl is charged as an adult, Josie cannot turn her back. But the deeper she digs the more Josie realizes that politics, the law and family relationships create a combustible and dangerous situation.

"This story was inspired by a case my husband handled. As a superior court judge he had to sentence a minor to life in prison. It made me wonder how I felt about minors arrested for violent crimes. Are they most vulnerable among us - capable or horrible violence, perceived as adults and yet emotionally still children?" Rebecca Forster (rebeccaforster.com)
"An enthralling read, with colorful, well-developed characters and the unique atmosphere of the California beach communities." Nancy Taylor Rosenberg
"Blending complex psychological character portraits with spot-on accurage courtroom drmaa, Forster's riveting legal thriller keeps the plot twists coming until the last, satisfying page." - Alafair Burke
