Single
Rider
by
Skye Leah Collett
Genre:
Contemporary Women's Fiction
This
is a story about a woman named Kenzie. A woman who knows what she
wants and likes things just the way they are, thank you very
much.
This
is also a story about a man named Max. Max can be a real pain in the
ass.
And
finally, this is a story about Dash, ex-husband extraordinaire, who
likes to get down to the Scissor Sisters and parties a little too
much.
And
Katie, the best friend who parties far too much and can expertly
defend herself against sexual harassment accusations.
And
Claudia, sister, mother and head of the school parent’s
association, long time tea drinker. The chalk to Kenzie’s
cheese.
And
Michael, the one that got away.
(The
one in the hat!)
First
time author of Single Rider
Skye
Leah Collett,
refuses to concede that her debut novel is in any way
Autobiographical.
Her
ex-husband
doesn't
buy it.
He
won’t shut up about the
similarities between himself and the vibrantly likeable supporting
character Dash. Unrelenting in his conviction
that the imagined fellows resemblance is as unsubtle as the nose on
his handsome face, he’s adamantly staked a claim in sharing any
perceived future celebrity entitlements. He
is also one of this author's
biggest fans.
Sydney born but a devoted Brisbane
girl for almost three decades,
Skye’s
stories centre on the
lives
and relationships of individuals
living in modern
suburban
Australia. Their friendships, their increasingly
overbearing families and of course their lovers.
Her
father's
dedication
to waffling,
unapologetically
long winded stories is a treasured family trait passed on through
generations and Skye’s
rich,
colourful characters are painstakingly crafted to become people you
wished you knew and become
reluctant to farewell.
Skye
spends an
unseemly indulgent
amount of time pinching herself as a reminder that she is indeed
awake and
very much a person who finished writing a novel.
She’d
adore hearing from anyone who feels inclined to make the effort or
just wants to say hey.
