Sharron's debut novel, Discovering Orla, was published on Amazon in September, 2023.

Reviews:

"This book is the perfect travelling Companion. The author transports you from rural Ireland to the hustle & bustle of London and immerses you into Orla's world & her desire to spread her wings & escape her small rural village for something more exciting. Will love draw Orla back. It keeps you interested until the final page. "

" Discovering Orla is an epic debut novel about a somewhat naïve young lass from a small village in Ireland making her way in ‘the big smoke’ – London, a drastic change from the close-knit community she is used to.
... The pacing is flawless with no chapter feeling like you are just chewing gum, I loved the descriptive prose which I thought far exceeded that of a first-time novelist. It is the characters however that I love the most, even the most minor of characters is well-defined and often comical, leaping off the page in three dimensions you care what happens to them and when all said is done that is the most important thing in a novel."

A psychologist once told Ada Maria Soto that she has a fantasy- prone personality. Fortunately, Ada grew up to become an author, so a life lived deep in her imagination fits her perfectly. As a Mexican-American expat living in the South Pacific with her partner and kid, her life is chaotically divided between being a writer, a publisher, and a parent.  

Ada has written some of the most beloved stories in the M/M romance genre despite her harried and haggard schedule, starting with the Empty Nests duology in 2015, which is as well known for her wonderful descriptions of cooking as for the contemporary romance between men who come from very different worlds.
