Kort biografi
Born in Port Elizabeth, South Africa and now proudly Australian, Juanita is a freelance writer of book reviews, blogs, web content, advertorials, newsletters, resumes and training manuals. She also writes articles on business management for Stanford Who’s Who, New York, USA.
Having recently completed a diploma in Proofreading, Editing and Publishing through the Australian College QED, Bondi, NSW, Juanita is a freelance editor for US Publisher Damnation Books, and proofreads scientific text books for Elsevier Press, Oxford, UK.
Juanita gained her professional experience as an administrator and Customer Care/Quality Assurance Coordinator conducting audits; writing and proof-reading reports, operating procedures, company policies, capability statements, newsletters and customer correspondence.
Juanita escapes the real world by reading and writing romantic fiction. She conducts interviews with fellow authors and writes book reviews, as well as the odd blog about the frustrations and delights of being a writer.
When she’s not writing, editing or proofreading, Juanita is the cleaning fairy and mother to three boys (hubby included, his toys are just a little more expensive). Her not-so-miniature Daschund, Sam is her critique partner and keeps her company while writing.

Overall Opinion:
“Shadows Over Wongan Creek” was the opposite of what I was expecting. When I picked up this series, I anticipated a cowboy romance filled with the typical small-town drama before the old flames rekindle their teenage romance. There was definitely a darker element to this series that dealt with suicide, depression, abuse, and death. Normally elements like would instantaneous draw me in but this series was just missing that “it” factor to really win me over. Sure I enjoyed the darker elements and the characters seem pretty likable but I felt like it was more than a chore to finish this and that's something no reader should feel. My motivation shriveled down to finish this chapter after chapter and I decided it was probably best I dropped this before it was too late. I will notate I would definitely consider picking this back in the future to see what the outcome was.

But unlike her brother, Charlie must follow her father's orders that means giving her beautiful daughter up for adoption. Something that she's not willing to do--so she runs away with her baby. Her original plans fell through so she went to the infamous Calhoun Custom Garage knowing that they are looking for a graphic artist--something she is passionate about but her father doesn't allow her to do. Charlie is also running from the PI her father hired her to bring her home. Tony Jackson is never told no. He is a sore loser.

A bit of Nascar sprinkled in this one.
Charlie 's father wants a Nascar win, no matter what the cost & since he's too old, he directs his son on the course. Charlie is overlooked and rebels, getting pregnant. When dear old Dad wants to put the baby up for adoption, she splits town and lands in Montana at the garage of custom car painters, which is the job she really really wants to do.

Each has something to prove to the world and each other. Whether running from the past or rebuilding a brighter future, Overdrive steers full throttle through life, love and redemption to find a home within your heart. Keeps reminds us through the eyes of Chase and Charlotte of a super important lesson. We are not the sum of our mistakes, but the wisdom we gain from them.
