Author Bio
Joy Wood has worked as a nurse most of her adult life and turned to writing six years ago to ‘see if she could.’ Her earlier work was adult romance and intrigue, but more recently she has switched genres to romance with a crime element. Joy lives in the small but charming seaside town of Cleethorpes in North East Lincolnshire and her writing ideas come from watching the tide turn daily, of course with the obligatory ice-cream – someone has to support the local economy!

Providing excerpts has been terribly difficult for this book, the reason being, I don’t want to give too much away. If I say more, it would most definitely spoil the enjoyment of the story. So, sincere apologies in advance for just a few lines – all will become apparent for the reader, I promise.
I write crime/psychological thrillers. All my books have a romance and crime element to them, but my earlier ones do have a lot of adult content. I write much less now though (I don’t know anymore!)
Each one of my books is different intentionally. I know that occasionally I’ll get a review from a reader that ‘preferred my last book’ and I understand that completely (I have my favourites too). My intention when starting a book is to have the reader swiping the pages well into the night! I always try to provide a good story with lots of twists and turns and a few I didn’t see that coming moments. I sincerely hope I’ve done so with this one . . .
Whatever It Takes (short excerpt)
What they were about to do was abhorrent. But he knew precisely what he was doing. And he also knew, lots of people each year lose their lives in swimming and boating accidents. He’d rigged the ship ready for the explosion so nobody would be able to prove it wasn’t an accident. All she had to do was lure them to the edge of the boat and he was going to do the rest. He was fairly confident the Greek authorities wouldn’t do extensive investigations into the accident. Of course they’d have to establish how two people had died, which would mean examining the bodies and the boat, but that would be about it. He knew the authorities well. His father used to be disparaging about them, cynically saying if he wanted to murder his wife, he’d do it at sea in Greece. The investigation would be over before it’d begun.
