Michelle Shine’s greatest creations are her three children, all grown up now, leaving her with a wealth of time to pursue more fictitious realities. 2012 was a vintage year; she had a number of short stories accepted for publication and her novel, Mesmerised, was chosen to be published by Indigo Dreams Publishing, out later this year. She tweets @michelleashine.

Michelle’s Story for Lovers’ Lies, Skin Deep, she describes as:

The story of a girl who falls, out of her depth, in love with a married man.
