    About this ebook

    Imogen is a posh diplomat's daughter with a pretty face. She's also fresh out of jail for violent assault. Who's going to give her a break when so many others deserve it more? Angie runs a garden centre and despite her reservations gives Imogen a job to help out Patty, her parole officer friend. But the ex-con's surly, couldn't-care-less attitude gets up everyone's nose, including customers, so Angie fires her.

    End of story. Or it should have been, but Imogen turns up again and Angie sees another side of her... and a sexier side, too.

    Jailbird Can't Fly tells of the love story that shouldn't have happened, except that Angie cares too much about birds with broken wings... and so mistrust became attraction... and attraction became desire. Their passion is described with unfettered language so readers beware of explicit adult content.

    Mica Le Fox

    Totally out of my depth at an academic school I mercifully discovered I could draw and blagged my way into a career in advertising and visual arts. So far, so not too bad. It's been OK, but writing has been part of my remit and I've always itched to do more, so here I am, blagging my way into book writing. It's all fiction. Fiction is often way better than real life and I spend most of my time thinking things up. But I will never try to make you accept the completely unbelievable. If you watch, say, science fiction on TV, it's alright to 'suspend your disbelief' - I do - but not to accept the unbelievable. I hope my books will introduce to you human characters (mostly) with ordinary human emotions and fallibilities. I especially like fallibilities... they are the most interesting thing about us all and certainly the best to write about. I want you to have a booky window on people sometimes making mistakes... maybe sometimes getting it right as well. And I will try to make you feel what they do, you know, like you are in their shoes... well, unless they're undressed of course. Whether I do all this well is another matter, I only write these stories so I have no idea. Anyway, it's for you to decide. Buy the books and let me know. Ha! Blagging again.
