I'm very excited to tell you about my debut novel, Love In The Wrong Dimension, a love story told from the perspective of a ghost. I'm thrilled with the feedback I've had so far and very grateful for the wonderful support and reviews from readers. When best friends, Jemma and Alice, wake up after a party, they make a pact that will change their lives forever.
Then tragedy strikes when Jemma dies unexpectedly and realises that she's become a ghost. Terrified, she goes to find Alice in the hope that, using her psychic abilities, her friend can tell her what to do next. Instead of making contact with Alice though, Jemma meets Tom, an attractive but elusive ghost, who tells her that she's trapped in the eleventh dimension, a place for ghosts who weren't meant to die. Jemma vows to find a way out, but things get complicated when she develops feelings for Tom, whose own reasons for being there are darker than she could ever have imagined.
In the worlds of the living and the dead, both girls try to come to terms with Jemma's death, but their efforts are hindered by other troubled spirits. For Jemma, it's the creepy and sinister ghost, Max, whose bitterness could threaten her safety, and for Alice, it's the ethereal ghostly child who has been following her since Jemma died. "The characters come alive and I could clearly picture each one (Tom looked like Joseph Fiennes!). I've recommended this to all my friends as it's compulsive reading." - Paula "Excellent read! Brilliant plot, many twists! A really lovely conclusion!" - Donna Love In The Wrong Dimension (Romantic Ghost Story)

Welcome to KindleBoards, Anette, and congratulations on your book!  Please note that KindleBoards is a Readers and Kindle Fan forum. Authors are always welcome to post anywhere but, as you browse the 'boards, please keep in mind that self-promotion, of any sort, is ONLY allowed here in the Book Bazaar. A brief recap of our rules follows: (Note that this doesn't mean you've done anything wrong; we just want you to have a ready reference, so post this note in every thread.  ) -- Please bookmark this thread (using your browser's bookmark/favorite function) so you can update it and add to it when there is more information, as we ask that authors have only one thread per book. You may start a separate thread for each book (or you may have one thread per series of books, or one thread for all of your books, it's your choice). If you start a new thread when you already have one, it will be deleted without comment or warning.--We invite you to use your book cover as your avatar and have links to your book and website in your signature. Instructions are posted here--While you may respond to member posts to your thread at any time, you may only bump your thread (back-to-back posts by you) once every seven days. Once you've responded to a member, that resets the clock to zero and you must wait seven days to post, unless another member posts before then. If you post prematurely, the post will be deleted without comment.--We ask that Amazon reviews not be repeated here as they are easy to find at your book link. Also, full reviews from other sites should not be posted here, but you may post a short blurb and a link to the full review instead. --Although self-promotion is limited to the Book Bazaar, our most successful authors have found the best way to promote their books is to be as active throughout KindleBoards as time allows. This is your target audience--book lovers with Kindles!

note: the link in the original post goes to the amazon UK site. Annette, if the story is available in the US, you might want to link to that also. if it's not, you might want to note that in your post so that American readers aren't disappointed when they click.

Hi, I'm just reposting this post as I'd left off a link the first time. Thank you moderator for letting me know.

Love In The Wrong Dimension is now half price for a limited period. Do ghosts fall in love? Jemma Haley is about to find out.... Love In The Wrong Dimension is a modern romantic ghost story. Jemma is a trendy young woman enjoying her twenties and partying hard in London's fashionable Camden Town. One hung-over morning, she makes a pact with her best friend Alice, setting off a train of events that will ultimately lead to her destiny. After an untimely accident she wakes and realises her life has changed for ever - she is a ghost... Terrified, she goes to find Alice in the hope that, using her psychic abilities, her friend can tell her what to do next. Instead of making contact with Alice though, Jemma meets Tom, an attractive but elusive ghost, who tells her that she's trapped in a dimension for ghosts who weren't meant to die. She vows to find a way out, but is torn when she develops feelings for Tom, whose own reasons for being there are darker than she could ever have imagined. The story is moving, mysterious and romantic and will keep you guessing until the last page. Might eternal love be possible after all? $1.21 on Amazon.com  £0.77 on Amazon.co.uk
