Kissed by a Rose

Note 1

“Kissed by a Rose” was inspired by a Classic SOL story, “Transcending the Role” by Don Lockwood. The setting is slightly different—a university rather than a High School—the characters are a little older and “Kissed” is almost three times longer and has more sex scenes in it. But the story has the same premise—a movie star who tries to continue her education and falls for an “ordinary” boy—and hits some of the same beats.

If you haven’t read Don’s story, I would heartily recommend you give it a try

Note 2

Just like a number of my other novels, Kissed by a Rose takes place in Westmouth, Westmouthshire—a fictional town and county on the South‐East Coast of England. In fact, it was the first novel written to be set in the county. It makes use of some of the locations which appear in the other Westmouthshire Novels and may also reference characters and events from them.

So if you’ve read any or all of The Lies We Lead, Eternally & Evermore, A Good Man, A Tortured Soul, The Big Four Ohhh! and Charlotte’s Secret then keep your eyes open and allow yourself a wry smile when you spot a reference.

But can you spot them all?

Oh, and one more thing. This book uses uncompromising adult language to depict uncompromising adult activities. If that is likely to offend you, sorry, but you bought the wrong book.
