I am delighted to welcome P.S. Bridge to my blog today, and she has answer a series of fun questions all entitled - Would You Rather?
1) Would you rather live under the sea or in space?
Under the sea! I have always been fascinated by what lies in the depths of our seas and oceans. Besides, before we start exploring space, I believe it’s much better to explore our own planet. Marine life is fascinating, almost hypnotic.
2) Would you rather only read your genres you write in, or all other genres for the rest of your life?
I like to be able to change the genre I read. Much as my heart will always lie in thrillers, as a writer and a reader, the best experiences are those which are varied.
3) Would you rather ride a camel or an elephant?
It has to be an Elephant! They are a lot more comfortable and there is something majestic about these beautiful creatures.
4) Would you rather eat sweet or savoury food?
This is a tough one! Sweet would have to be my choice. I love my chocolate far too much, especially Bourbons and Custard Creams!
5) Would you rather pick all future books to read by their covers only, or their blurbs?
However much we like to believe otherwise, our eyes are always drawn to vivid images. I have fond the majority of my book collection was chosen as a result of their striking front covers.
6) Would you rather go skiing or sit by a beach on holiday?
I adore the beach. The sounds of the waves lapping on the shore, the warm summer breeze and the feeling of warm sand beneath my feet, and always a great book to read. I cannot imagine anything else more relaxing and inspiring.
7) Would you rather go to the cinema or the theatre?
Having spent a large amount of time working on stage, the theatre would be preferred. Live action, right in front of your eyes, cannot be beaten.
8) Would you rather read ebooks, audiobooks or physical books?
Physical books for definite! Nothing replaces a physical copy. It’s the smell of the pages, that first moment of excitement when you thumb through the pages and hold it in your hand before opening it. You cannot beat a physical book!
9) Would you rather be rich but unhappy or poor and happy?
Poor and happy. I have been there before, and, when everything is said and done, it’s not about what you could have; it’s about what you have already got and how you make the best of it.
10) Would you rather play or watch sports?
I used to be very sporty, but these days I prefer to watch rather than participate. We are currently massive fans of winter sports and having been glued to the TV watching the Winter Olympics.
11) Would you rather always have to tell the truth, or always have to lie?
For me, the truth is always the best option. I have always been an advocate of the truth and I think that’s why I chose the legal profession to work in. Everyone deserves to know the truth despite how difficult it can be to handle.
12) Would you rather only be able to whisper the whole time, or shout the whole time?
I would rather be able to whisper. If you have to whisper, people have to work harder to listen. And also that means when shouting is required, people take notice!
13) Would you rather always be late or always be unprepared?
I would never go into anything unprepared. I am obsessed with being on time though and I really begin to panic if I’m late for anything. Victory loves preparation!
14) Would you rather have your own luxury car, or private plane?
I’d rather have a private plane. It opens up the possibilities for further travel and to get to places cars cannot. Although I wouldn’t turn down a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500!
15) Would you rather be aged 10 or 30 forever?
With age comes wisdom and I think 30 would be my preferred age.
16) Would you rather look like a fish or smell like a fish?
Look like a fish! Smelling like one means no one’s going to come near you. At least if it’s only looks, it’s easier to live with!
17) Would you rather be an only child or have siblings?
I have 2 older sisters, and much as it’s nice to have them, I always wondered what it would be like to be an only child.
18) Would you rather lose your keys or forget your mobile phone?
I’d rather lose my mobile phone. When I was younger, mobile phones were not so readily available and I managed fine without one!
19) Would you rather have free books for life or free food for life?
Free books! No one can have too many books!
20) Would you rather give up social media or alcohol?
I would give up social media. It’s not that I don’t like it, but it somehow doesn’t have the same appeal as a nice 12 year old Scottish Malt!

A terrorist threat, a sinister
organisation, and a threat to the security of the free world.
Renowned British lawyer and Sandhurst military
academy dropout, Mark Lucas King is assigned the case of his career: to
prosecute known terrorist Mohammed Al-Azidi.
All King wants is justice and to do his
job successfully. But his peaceful life is shattered when a team of merciless
hitmen targets him and his family and the court case collapses. Framed for
assault and suspected of his wife's murder, King must leave his legal career
behind and go back to his old career as a British Army sniper in order to catch
those responsible and hold them to account. Mark King's brand of justice
doesn’t involve a court room.
Forced to battle against highly trained
hitmen to clear his name, King discovers that a sinister organisation known
as Invictus Advoca is operating behind the scenes. What is their
connection to him and the Al-Azidid case?
As the hunt for those responsible takes
him far across Europe, can Mark unravel the mysteries that shroud this
secretive organisation and peel back the layers to discover why he and his
family have found themselves the target of professional hitmen?
Time is not on Mark King's side as he
races to prevent a global terror threat, discover who killed his wife, and find
out who wants him dead, and why.
