Since November 2009Author of the Week: Belinda Jones
Posted on Thursday, April 9th, 2009 by Leah
This weeks Author of the Week is Belinda Jones. Belinda is the author of 7 novels: Divas Las Vegas, I Love Capri, The California Club, The Paradise Room, Cafe Tropicana, The Love Academy and Out of the Blue. She is also the author of the non-fiction novel On The Road To Mr Right.
Belinda’s first job in journalism was on the Postman Pat comic. She went on to spend four years at “more!” magazine which included co-presenting the “Mr more! 94″ male model contest. After turning freelance she wrote for magazines including Elle, FHM, Cosmopolitan and For Women. In 1997 she moved to Los Angeles and in 2001 her first novel Divas Las Vegas was published to great success. She now lives in Las Vegas, but spends much of her time travelling to research her fabulous books (and to find men which you can read about in On The Road To Mr Right). (From fantasticfiction.co.uk)
My favourite Belinda Jones novel is Out of the Blue. My least favourite was The Love Academy and I didn’t even finish it, however I loved the cover for it. I haven’t read The Paradise Room or I Love Capri yet but I’ll be looking out for it. You can read my review for Out of the Blue here.
According to Belinda’s website she is currently working on/researching her eigth novel, apparently called Dancing Girls and is taking Cuban salsa lessons. Amazon.co.uk doesn’t have any information up yet but whenever it’s released I’ll be reading it.
