Summary

Be Happy with My Life.

'Bugger!' said Katie; 'That’s a nuisance. Dying was definitely not part of my plan.’

In fact, it annoys her quite a bit. So she decides to adjust her plan slightly…. to get around the death problem and ensure her family will be okay after she has gone.

Amusing, hilarious at times, sad but uplifting, and life-affirming. This is Katie’s revised plan for life….You will probably not have read a book like this before.

Be Happy with My Life.

This story is about Katie Rose Farrier, who lives a perfect life with her husband and three children. Then she discovers she is dying from Cancer. Katie spends what time she has left searching for someone to replace her after she has gone. She finds Lauren, who lives in the same village, and a relationship develops, although they never meet. The story is about their lives and how they eventually morph into one new life for the families.

This is one of the five books in the “Story Teller” pentalogy. Each book explores a very different kind of relationship.

The other stories are:

Death of a Sparrow.

Set in 1943

This story is about Marissa (aged 15). She is on a train with 281 other Jewish Children being evacuated from their town in Slovenia to the safety of Switzerland.

But the train journey is a masquerade. Its true mission is to carry precious cargo into the heart of Germany.

After Germany, the train is onward bound for the Naztweiller death camp in France, where the children are destined to be exterminated. Marissa befriends a German guard on a train and rapes him during the journey. The relationship quickly develops into a love affair, and they find themselves facing one monumental decision when the opportunity arises for them to escape from the train before it reaches Germany.

They can run, but it will cost the lives of all the other children on the train, including Marissa’s closest friends, or they can stay, but if they do, it will cost the lives of millions of people across Europe….
