Could this be Love? I Wondered

Could this be Love? I Wondered

by Marilyn Taylor (Author)

Synopsis

It begins with a look: but when Jackie actually meets the boy from the bus stop it's not so simple. Is Kev interested in her or not?

There is no shortage of advice from her friends - 'agony aunt' Deirdre, and hypochondriac Ruth, who says love is just an illness anyway.

Romance isn't the only challenge for Jackie. At home there are money problems and her young brother's brush with the law. Why is life so easy in films and so complicated in real life, she wonders. And is there any hope for herself and Kev?

Author Bio
Marilyn Taylor was born and educated in England, and has an economics degree from London University. She was a school librarian in a Dublin secondary school for 16 years and a college librarian. Her first novels for young adults were the Jackie and Kev trilogy, Could This Be Love, I Wondered? (1994), Could I Love a Stranger? and Call Yourself a Friend?. Faraway Home was a new departure for Marilyn, having a strong historical basis and being set in Northern Ireland during the Second World War. It won the prestigious Bisto Book of the Year Award and was followed by 17 Martin Street, set in Dublin during The Emergency (as the Second World War was knows in Ireland). Both have been hugely popular with schools throughout Ireland and beyond.
