Musical Romance
Feelgood Love Story With a Soundtrack
“Oh my goodness, it's a tour de force, it's huge ...and it's great!!🎶 👍 🎵 👍” P.D.
“I tried a musical novel hybrid with my own #Zero, which I spotted in a charity shop today & note has (checks stats) 1 monthly listener on Spotify. Better luck to the talented @gethynjonesuk with his bold take on an underpopulated genre. Check it (Fatal Equation) out.” Neil McCormick, Daily Telegraph.
“An intertwining tale of a love that doesn't conform to society's self-limiting rules, shot through with a fine understanding of the often unspoken side of life's relationships. Add in tales of the music business and some unhinged family members and you have a love story which is just so much more than most in this genre. A very entertaining and well characterised book which had me guessing until the end.” Richard
“I absolutely love this book. It has everything you could possibly wish for ... can't wait for the next one! Thank you Gethyn Jones.” D.H.
“Why is this book hidden away? Much More Than A Romance. An enjoyable, good read with many twists and turns. It's a romance which could seem doomed, but also covers many contemporary themes while bringing the music business and a small town to life.” Pam

Fatal Equation
Romance Novel With Original Music
Uplifting, dramatic, twisting, feelgood story – and check out the music ...
Aged just 16, Ali Kurmi was exiled to Portsmouth by his despicable, sweaty, arrogant, bully-of-a-rich businessman father, to protect the family name. Now in his thirties, Ali's forced to work as an unofficial bailiff for his father's property company. The only things keeping him going are his songwriting and DJing.
Laura O'Brien, a former journalist from Dublin is a looker and defies her 52 years - made even more remarkable by her tragic back story. Fate strikes again as her renowned husband of just four years, racehorse breeder Frank O'Brien, collapses and dies of a brain aneurysm. It leaves her broken-hearted, but very rich. Determined to avoid returning to the bottle, and egged on by her sponsor, the enigmatic Alice Kingston, Laura leaves Tipperary to start afresh in Hampshire.
This is the story of Ali and Laura, how they got together and how they navigate their way through a seemingly endless number of cruel and unlikely twists and turns that threaten their relationship - and their lives.

“I could certainly get used to living the lifestyle of the super rich, but dealing with the fallout from contentious bequests and grasping beneficiaries, I don't know whether they'll all make it out alive! Highly recommended as an enjoyable, absorbing read. ” S Archibald
“This has the making of a great TV drama and the surprise inclusion of six superb musical tracks by musicians collectively called CoolStar make this a good story to read. All good luck with it.” J. Cross
“This book is a lovely story incorporating many different facets of life. It shows the wonderful characteristics of some people and the truly appalling characteristics of others. In the end goodness prevails but there are many tangled threads along the way. And I love the accompanying music.” Janiemac
