Anyone read her books.
I have read Forget Me Not, now reading The Game.
All crime, whores, and dodgy geezers, set in Manchester.
A good read.
She has two others which I have not read The Front and Tainted Lives.

Martina Cole, that's the one!! All her books seem the same to me, mandasue heller's one I read seemed very similar! It was driving me nuts trying to remember her name, thanks! x |

LOL I guess I will LOVE Martina Cole's books then.
My mum gave them to me, she thinks she is great.
I am reading Maureen Lee, now, based in Liverpool. |

| Never read Martina Cole`s books, but just started my first Mandasue Heller one, Forget Me Not. Haven`t got very far yet, but seems promising. |

That's the first one I read, I really enjoyed it.
And I have just not long finished The Game, another good book.
I hope you enjoy them. |

| I`m persevering, but I must admit to not being very keen on the characters in the book, I don`t find them very likeable. |

I did finish it, and it wasn`t TOO bad, but I wouldn`t go so far as to say I enjoyed it, and I never did really take to the characters. |
