Charity Anthology: Against the Turning Tides

 Against the Turning Tides

Against the Turning Tides

Strength isn’t always loud.

Sometimes it’s quiet, stubborn, and relentless, like a woman who keeps standing when life keeps trying to pull her under.

Against the Turning Tides is a powerful romance anthology celebrating women who have faced loss, pain, illness, heartbreak, and impossible odds and chosen to rise anyway. Through stories of love, resilience, and hope, these pages honour the courage it takes to survive… and the bravery it takes to love again.

Created especially for the Romance in the North book signing, this anthology is published in aid of Heyendo, a Hull & East Yorkshire based charity supporting women living with endometriosis, offering understanding, advocacy, and a lifeline to those who need it most.

This collection is also dedicated to the memory of Paula Acton, our dear friend, whose strength, kindness, and spirit continue to inspire us. Though she passed away in 2025, her legacy lives on in every woman who refuses to be defined by her pain.

These stories are about survival.

About love found after darkness.

About women who bend but do not break.

Together, we stand.

Together, we rise.

Picking a teaser scene from the complete Grimalkin Academy: Kittens series is hard - which is best? A best friend scene, a romance scene, a kitten scene? There are just too many to choose from! I ended up picking a romance-kitten scene (which sounds wrong, but it isn't, promise!) ~~~~ Copyright 2019 Laura Greenwood ~~~~ A knock sounds at the door, drawing me out of my little kitten loving haze. I don't know what it is about them, but I'm captivated. At this rate, I'm going to start thinking I somehow imbued them with a love potion. "Coming," I shout, wondering who it can be. Daphne would just have walked in. She has no respect for personal space, something I definitely expect from having a best friend. I pull the door open and blink a couple of times. "Can I come in?" Caspian asks, his voice rasping through me and making my heart do a weird somersault. "Erm, sure. How did you get into the flat?" As far as I know, the front door has a lock o...
