| HER DOUBTING HEART "Georgina Russell kicked off her shoes, took two steps into her apartment and raised a hand to her mouth to stifle a scream. She was not alone! Someone or something was in her bedroom." What an opening for a novel! Not a good start for a romance though, especially when she found the man had picked the lock of her door to gain entrance and worse, he had been sent by her ex-husband ... The intruder was blowing up balloons to celebrate her birthday - except that it wasn't her birthday - and he was amused when she, scarcely half his size, tackled him with her umbrella. Set in Canada, this is a delightful story, full of fun, with lively characters and their troublesome relations. ... Jean Currie, Round the Campfire Reviews |
| Leftovers,
Arabella Magazine, short story, April/May issue "This is a charming little slice-of-life tale with appealing characters, human and otherwise. I can easily sympathize with the protagonist. The author manages to be both realistic and romantic. I especially appreciate how she takes a fairly complicated situation and conveys it in considerable detail and with convincing emotion in the space of a short short." ... Mary Anne Landers, U.S.A. |
| "A Woman of
Experience ... is the story of how Janey does indeed become a woman of
experience, and author Kay Gregory expertly weaves characters and themes
together to provide a delightful story as we watch the girl grow into
a woman, from dreamer to survivor." Maggie Hardy, Women on Writing |
| A WOMAN OF EXPERIENCE "... a delightful story about growing up, learning about yourself and discovering who the people you have known for so long really are ... This is truly one of the better novels of initiation I have read in a long, long time. Ms. Gregory has a sure hand with the details of London in the 50's and stylistically the books is a joy to read. The relationship between Jane and David is beautifully described, and the book has the perfect ending ... give yourself a treat and buy A Woman of Experience." Timeless Tales Book Reviews |

READERS SAY

| A WOMAN OF EXPERIENCE
"What a lovely story, I didn't want it to end, and it shouldn't ... I am going to hope that 'Jane' is on the threshold of an exciting career and will blossom even more in Book #2." Lois Saddleton, Victoria, B.C. "A Woman of Experience has all of the delightfully droll Gregory wit ... along with a different kind of heroine, one who is complex and hard to peg, one who frustrates you on occasion yet always retains your sympathy. There are some real surprises in store for the reader, for Jane's story is not a predictable one. I am extremely glad that I had the chance to read this book." Jo Slade, Kelowna, B.C. "Wonderfully written, a nostalgic experience for anyone who grew up insecure and 'outside' the popular/rich/beautiful group. Janey's experiences as she moves from insecure girl to confidant woman are frequently confused, often painful, as she searches for happiness and success. She struggles to understand love and honour, both in herself and others, as she falls in love, finds the right career, makes friends, all while learning what is truly important to her and in in life. Her relationships with the men she loves and with her family and friends resonate in the reader's heart. All the characters are so real, you could swear you'd met them in your own life." Anyone who likes Maeve Binchy's books will love this one. Judy Jackson, author of "FIND HER, KEEP HER" "Kay Gregory's delightful coming of age novel A WOMAN OF EXPERIENCE will tickle your funny bone and warm your heart. With wit, keen insight and an eye for detail, Gregory draws the reader in to the world of her courageous, yet vulnerable, heroine. Impossible to put down, Gregory's latest novel is, quite simply, unforgettable." Gael Morrison, bestselling author of "HEART OF A WOMAN" "I read it on the plane back to Australia. I loved it. The characters, the humour ... it was all wonderful. I couldn't put it down and when I had to I couldn't wait to get back to it." Joan Kilby, Author of Child of His Heart |
