What could possibly go wrong for Marie, an accomplished project manager?

A Senior Romcom that will make you laugh out loud.

#1 International Bestselling Author Pinnacle Award Winning Author Finalist in OKRWA 'Contemporary Short' Book Awards Readers' Favorite 5 star seal winner for six books "Allyson R Abbott, a British Romance author, will make you laugh out loud at Marie's strong woman antics and straightforward ways, in this clean romantic comedy, with a little innuendo. The way she manipulates Richard, completely unaware of the boundaries of her neighbor's sexuality, is humorous and funny and sometimes cringe-worthy." Rachel "This short story was a great little humorous read, with a big difference. It dispelled the normal love, lust and romance theory when looking for a relationship as Marie, the narrator decides at 59yrs old, she needs sex and fast…. Some very funny parts and easy to visualise scenes. I enjoyed the different approach and the typical English upper class characterizations of Marie". Erin When Senior Project Manager, fifty-nine year old Marie, realizes that it's been way too long since having any kind of sexual relationship with anything other than her magic wand sex toy, she knows action is needed. Using her professional training and organizational management skills, she sets about on a new project: Countdown to Love, using the forthcoming Valentine's Day as her deadline; hoping for some Valentines romance. As an empathizer of being lonely, she also includes her lovely but quiet neighbor Richard into her project, since whom she assumes to have been his latest boyfirend has moved on. Marie is hoping to give his boring and lonely life a boost. Little does she know that fifty-one year old Richard also has his own project on the boards and she blithely ignores his world, while focusing on her mission to find them both dates / sex / love, in fact anything, before the Valentine Day deadline.

I 'm very lucky to have the indulgence of time and space to enable me to write. I took a sabbatical from work to accompany my partner on his bucket list travels and adventures, and never went back. I really thought I would struggle with all the free time, so decided to write to keep myself occupied. Now writing has consumed my time and I am never sure where we will be or when, hence my novels could be classed 'international' as they may have been written across a few countries. We are still travelling, although we do pop back to the UK for a few months every now and again.

I love the fact that no matter what our age we can use new technology to connect to the rest of the world and enhance our lives. Back in the UK I have my friends and family and with emails, phones, Skype or face-time, we are never out of touch for long. Even my mother at eighty-six uses face-time to catch up with me. I have the world at my fingertips and only twenty-four hours away from anywhere.

Being a 'mature aging gracefully' woman, I feel akin to the problems of aging and relationships. I spent many years on my own before finding my truly remarkable and very patient partner who I happily gave up my whole world for. My stories are about mature relationships with mature people. People who have character and humour, who have a history; people just like us.

I like to call it Hen Lit, Not Chick Lit, but it is not just about falling in love. They are about real relationships.

I hope you enjoy my stories. Please check my web page or social media pages if you would like to contact me. I love emails and try to answer every one as soon as possible.
