  What others have said about Michelle Betham’s books...

  No Matter What

  “This was a fascinating and emotional read, a real page-turner.”

  “It's an epic of a book and so worth reading.”

  “What can I say, move over Jackie Collins…”

  “This type of novel is very much my guilty secret…”

  “The characters all felt very real and believable, and I was able to picture and feel their presence as I read the book.”

  “What a book!”

  “This book is Martina Cole meets Dynasty meets Footballer's Wives (the good bits) and is a stonking book. If you are looking for a fast read, it's not for you, but it's a shame to miss it....”

  “I would recommend this book to all my friends.”

  “I love a good book that I can get lost in and at over 800 pages, I can get lost in this one for hours.”

  “’No Matter What’ is a novel I found hard to put down once I started reading.”

  “Betham brought to life the most fantastic characters and delivered a novel with more highs and lows than Eastenders. I thoroughly enjoyed 'no matter what' and recommend it to all who love glamour, romance, twists and turns and really sexy leading men!”

  “…you find yourself living the character's lives due to the author's fantastic skills of descriptive story-telling…”

  Christmas Without Icing

  “What a lovely Christmassy feel-good book…”

  “Totally loved this novella. Such a warm story with fabulous, believable characters whom I connected with completely. Thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend to anyone.”

  “The author transports the reader right into the heart of the Lapland skiing resort and the buzz at that time of year, complete with the stunning Northern Lights experience. Yet another great read from Michelle!”

  “The story itself is heart warming, with a touch of fate-filled magic…”

  “Curl yourself up on the sofa, with the lighting slightly dimmed to set the mood, and read away. You'll soon be transported to Lapland and feel the magic in the air…”

  “Lovely and heart-warming book - beautifully written and very engaging and I must admit to shedding a few tears in places!”

  “Without a doubt this is a very special Christmas novella that will have you filling up your glass with mulled wine and drawing the curtains as you're transported to Lapland.”

  “… perfect for a lazy afternoon…”

  “A fabulous Christmas time novella for chick-lit and hen-lit fans.”

  “This is a feel-good, sentimental, gorgeous story that was perfect for a Christmas afternoon tucked up on the sofa, shutting the world outside and taking a trip to Lapland! It has also made me want to visit Lapland even more!”

  Illusions of Love

  “What a fantastic book. Started it this morning and couldn’t stop until I had read it all.”

  “This is chick lit at its best, escapism and fun, I would recommend this book for anyone wanting a fun holiday read or as an excuse not to do the housework!”

  “I would highly recommend this book to all my friends.”

  “Reminded me of Jackie Collins in the good old days. If you want glamour, passion and intrigue, this is the book for you.”

  “Sequel to a fantastic first book, still as gripping and mostly unpredictable.”

  “Believable characters, fantastic story-lines and incredible description…”

  ”Filled with high drama and deception, this was another rollercoaster read that captivated me from start to finish.”

  See You At The Show

  “Once again Michelle Betham brings together two different worlds and combines them effortlessly to produce another gripping read.”

  “I really liked this book! It had a Jackie Collins feel about it…”

  “Fantastic read!”

  “Fast paced, sexy, I was hooked from page one and just did not want to stop reading….”

  “Edgy rock 'n' roll romance.”

  “The premise of this book seems unlikely but somehow the characters draw you into the story and before you know it you feel that what is created is perfectly possible. I must admit I found the book hard to put down at times so don't read it before bed as it will keep you glued for hours!”

  “Oh, how I needed this book. I needed a kick ass character like Stevie Stone. I needed a love triangle (love square may be more appropriate in this situation, really) full of drama, set in a background of rockstars, bars, and also in the polar opposite political arena.”

  Bon Voyage

  “This is the perfect book for taking on holiday or for curling up with on a cold winters night while dreaming of warmer climes.”

  “… if you like chick-lit, boybands and glamorous locations, download this because you'll love it…”

  “I am always on the look out for a good holiday read, and this was a very good holiday read…”

  “I have this wonderful story to thank for getting me hooked on all Michelle Betham’s other books. So sit back, relax and imagine you are sailing away, and hopefully, like me, you wont want this journey to end.”

  “Absolutely loved this book, well written and very enjoyable…”

  “One of the best kindle books that I have read!”

  “Easy, enjoyable read that makes you laugh out loud…”

  “A great book to read whilst sipping cocktails in the sun.”

  Too Much Trouble in Paradise

  “Only trouble in paradise I found was that the book was over so soon!!”

  “This book is very definitely worth a read!”

  “Great Northern humour and fantastic girly friendships.”

  “The character interactions are great and well-rounded and although I'm not a Geordie myself I found the North-East style humour hilarious and endearing.”

  “A really good rom-com read, and one that I would recommend…”

  “Brilliant humour and a warm, witty way with words, this book is just a good fun read through and through.”

  “This is a sunny, enjoyable read, perfect for the beach!”

  “You can't help but love the characters & who knew the world of darts was so glam!

  A feel good book, it made me laugh & reminded me how fun chick lit can be!”

  “It has a bit of everything...twists, turns and romance....I personally could picture myself in the role of the lead character!”

  “A fabulous comedy romance in the sun. What more can you ask for?”

  “I thoroughly enjoyed this book, great chick lit that will relax you, make you smile and dream of sunny islands, cocktails…and darts!”
