Dear Reader,

When the first in the #LoveLondon series - Skating at Somerset House – was released in December 2014, I had no idea of the wonderful, dizzying journey that lay ahead of me.

Writing a set of romances that could be read as stand-alone stories that were also linked was a challenge I was more than up for. Five novellas, one novel and a hundred and eighty thousand words later, here we are!

This series is my love letter to London. It’s a city I never get tired of with its varied architecture, amazing buzz, vibrant communities and diverse beauty. Even if I spent every day of the rest of my life exploring it, I don’t think I would discover all of its secrets.

During the writing of the series, every couple in every one of the stories became my friends and I was rooting for them to get their happy ever after. I hope you feel the same way.

I could never have predicted the way readers, bloggers and reviewers would take #LoveLondon to heart and I’ve been truly overwhelmed by the support, be it a tweet, a Facebook post or a lovely review. What’s been even more humbling has been readers contacting me to say a story touched them, or made them laugh, or how they wished they weren’t saying goodbye to the characters – and is there a follow up please? I have spent a lot of the last year with a smile on my face…

So now, as we’re approaching the end of the year, it feels only right to put the whole series together in one collection. I really hope you enjoy it, and I hope you grow to #LoveLondon as much as I do.

I would love to hear from you, so please do get in touch via Facebook or Twitter.

Love, Nikki x
