I’m very grateful to author Nina Kaye for sending me a copy of Take a Moment and her forthcoming novel Just Like That. It’s been a rather dull day here with torrential downpours but those colourful covers have certainly brightened my day! Take a Moment (as well as her previous novel One Night in Edinburgh) is just £1.99 at the moment for the Kindle edition. Just Like That will be published on 1st June and is available to pre-order, also for £1.99. All are available in paperback. I’ll be reviewing Just Like That on publication day as part of the book tour with Love Books Tours.
Take A Moment
Life is better lived in the moment
Meet Alex. She has a wonderful fiancé, a job she thrives in, and a best friend she’s known since childhood. Life’s not perfect, but it’s pretty fantastic. Until a shock diagnosis suddenly throws everything off course.
But Alex has never been one to back down from a fight. Now single and unemployed, she packs up and moves from her Glasgow hometown to vibrant Birmingham for a fresh start. In a new job, in a new city, she’s learning all over again what’s important in life.
Friendship, fun and even romance lie just around the corner – but can Alex get out of her own way and learn to just take a moment, and live?

Just Like That
Is fur-ever on the cards for these enemies-at-first-sight?
Jess is smashing her Edinburgh events management job right now. Her boss is talking about a promotion, her clients love her and other companies want her. But all of that comes to an abrupt halt when her brother has a sudden stroke. Jess doesn’t think twice about stepping in as his carer, but her boss is not so understanding.
Demoted to managing low-end events, Jess is less than thrilled to be assigned to a small animal park in need of raising funds. She’s even less happy when she clashes with arrogant head keeper, Nick. He’s frustrated with her squeamishness; she thinks he’s a lech. Nick wants a baggage-free life; Jess has so much drama going on, even the Kardashians can’t keep up.
But maybe saving the animals of East Lothian Wildlife Park will help these op-paw-sites find some common ground…

I have previously read and reviewed Nina’s second novel, One Night in Edinburgh. You can read my review here: One Night in Edinburgh
One night. But how many second chances?
Heartbroken on Hogmanay, Steph wanders through the street parties of Edinburgh until she bumps into Jamie. He’s funny, attractive and clearly interested. In a word, he’s perfect – but she didn’t get his number. All she remembers is his lime and mango beer.
Determined to be reunited, Steph tracks him by a milk carton style campaign, sticking a message to his favourite beer across local pubs. Although eventually reunited, Jamie is frequently uncontactable and evasive, and Steph worries she’s on the path to heartbreak once more.
There’s a fine line between being patient and being gullible, and Steph’s reaching her limit. When a chance encounter with Jamie on the streets reveals his secret, she faces an even tougher decision. Should Steph give love another chance, or was one night in Edinburgh all she and Jamie were meant to have?
