​

The Life Is Yours Series

The Life Is Yours Trilogy (the first three books) follows the adventure of one woman who goes from 'heartbreak to heart awake' in the space of a year. It's a story of love, loss and the beauty of circling back to yourself.

​

My Little Ramadan is the sequel to the Life Is Yours Trilogy, but can be read as a standalone story. It's all about how one exhausted mum hopes fasting for Ramadan will reveal the secrets to motherhood, life and everything.

​

The Berryport Mysteries

Murder at the Pirate Festival is the first book in this cosy, Devonshire-based series and is full of the swashbuckling adventures of teenager, Paulie Trinket. It's a totally unputdownable story with all the best elements of cosy crime - wonderful characters, an idyllic setting and a murder mystery that will have you wondering until the final pages.

​

Abigail is also a mum of two, one half of a multi-cultural couple and lives in South Devon in the UK. She loves to blog and gets her kicks from mindful parenting styles, creative living and chocolate in abundance.
