sophie’s introduction
Let me tell you a bit about my forthcoming book, THE BURNOUT.
Having experienced burnout myself in the past and seeing it around me everywhere, I was keen to write about it. It’s a serious subject, and I hope I’ve done it justice, but – you know me – I have to see the funny and ridiculous side of any situation. So this is very much a comedy – a romantic comedy.
Sasha hits a wall, quite literally and ends up going to recuperate from burnout at the Devon beach resort she loved as a child. However, the formerly grand hotel is a now a dilapidated shambles with comically bad staff (I loved writing them!) and the February weather is brutal. But even so, she’s in blissful solitude on the deserted, windswept beach, getting her thoughts together; getting her strength back; trying to figure stuff out.
Until, guess …

Having experienced burnout myself in the past and seeing it around me everywhere, I was keen to write about it. It’s a serious subject, and I hope I’ve done it justice, but – you know me – I have to see the funny and ridiculous side of any situation. So this is very much a comedy – a romantic comedy.
Sasha hits a wall, quite literally and ends up going to recuperate from burnout at the Devon beach resort she loved as a child. However, the formerly grand hotel is a now a dilapidated shambles with comically bad staff (I loved writing them!) and the February weather is brutal. But even so, she’s in blissful solitude on the deserted, windswept beach, getting her thoughts together; getting her strength back; trying to figure stuff out.
Until, guess what? I’m sure you can… A handsome, obnoxious guy turns up with his own issues – and to her annoyance she has to share the beach with him. At first, their relationship switches from completely ignoring each other to sparring with each other, but then a series of mysterious messages left on the beach draws them together, and….
I won’t give away any more right now. 😉
I hope this book makes you laugh, cry, find optimism if you’re struggling… and long to be at the beach. That’s how I felt when I was writing it and I kept looking at beach photos to get me in the mood. I’m so happy to share my inspiration for THE BURNOUT and I hope you love reading it!
