Talking To The Turtles
On the normally tranquil Derwentwater in England’s beautiful Lake District, there’s more than just a ripple when lonely divorcee Louisa, lover of all things aquatic and dedicated manager of the aquarium-on-the-lake, falls for gorgeous Aussie cruise boat skipper Alec when he literally comes crashing into her life.
Sadly for Louisa it’s not all plain sailing. Her failed marriage has left her with hangups, and he has a history that follows him around: when his jealous ex arrives on the scene and takes over the lakeside hotel, a situation arises that is so poisonous as to threaten not only Louisa’s new-found love but her very life by the lake as she knows it.
Is he really worth the heartbreak?
Against a background of exciting boat rides, colourful marine creatures and a swanky hotel, Talking to the Turtles is a roller coaster journey through falling in love, jeopardy, heartache and choosing the right path for happiness

Mist Over Meadowland
A stirring story of young love, teenage growing pains, and tough choices

Seventeen-year-old Nina Prince is luckier than most – to those looking on. A luxurious home, private school, and her own pony, Spirit. But inside she’s crippled by fears about her future, dread at the prospect of upcoming exams, and misery over her on-off – mostly off – love life. Riding Spirit is her lifeline.
Then out of the blue, her parents announce they’re selling Spirit. Devastated, Nina follows him to his new home at Meadowland Equestrian Centre, and when they offer her a holiday job, suddenly she’s filled with hope that it could lead to a career.
But she soon finds the intimidating atmosphere and the strict demands of the riding instructor unsettling. She’s not sure she’ll even make it through the holidays – until nineteen-year-old stable hand, Luke, comes to her rescue. At first, it’s friendship. But then with his irresistible blue eyes, dark, shaggy hair, wild taste in music and fascinating tattoos, Nina finds herself falling. Luke’s deprived background is a world away from her own, but she just can’t help it.
Love is complicated at the best of times, let alone at seventeen. And not only that – there’s things going on at Meadowland that threaten to shatter Nina’s innocence and take away everything she holds close.
Can she survive the summer and beyond, or will she end it with a broken heart?
Reviews
TALKING TO THE TURTLES
“I was taken beautifully along with this story – engrossed from beginning to a satisfying end. I have no hesitation to recommend it as a modern day romance, with more than a few surprises.”
“Great characters, well-drawn. Sorry to get to the last page. This is a first novel from Tracey-Ann Beckett and I hope there will be more.”
“Wonderful escapism during my daily commute. Disappointed when I finished it as was enjoying it so much! Looking forward to the next one by T-A B”
AFTER DARK IN GREENWICH PARK
“This book had me completely hooked from the very beginning with its perfect blend of psychological thriller and romance. The character development in this story is absolutely stellar.”
“The drama in the book really had me hooked, I was rooting for Trudie the whole way, yet her mistakes were completely understandable and had me feeling a lot of compassion for her and her toxic relationship that I think many people have experienced. The end of the book had me on the edge of my seat, I audibly gasped and squealed, the action was great and I love how Tracey wrapped it up.”
“This second novel from Tracey-Ann Beckett is another terrific read…. keeps you there right to the end. I loved it!”
