Bee Bloom is a respected modern leader who wholeheartedly believes in kindness. So when a conniving new chairman arrives at the company where she is CEO, she has a fight on her hands. 

Lucy Love, once a vivacious TV presenter, now finds herself a depressed, binge-drinking suburban wife. To make matters worse, her husband is facing accusations of harassment.

Rosie Reid has earned a reputation as Sydney’s “fixer,” skilfully managing crises through her successful PR firm. However, she's growing increasingly tired of covering up for her misbehaving clients.

When their worlds intertwine, the trio forge a pact to support one another. But as their dilemmas intensify, there is one looming question: can they throw the knockout punch and bring down the scheming, controlling men in their lives?

High Heels and Low Blows is Jill Valentine's debut novel which also delves into themes of self-worth, identity, and friendship. With unforgettable characters, dramatic twists and sassy comedy, it is a story that is highly relatable to the modern woman and will leave you asking — which of these fabulous females do I admire the most?

About the Author

Jill Valentine has spent over two decades in the investment banking industry, crafting narratives as a communications and PR executive.

Now, she’s flipping the script with her debut novel High Heels and Low Blows. During her career, Jill has worked closely with a flock of CEOs, giving her a backstage pass to leadership styles and corporate culture. She firmly believes that compassion and kindness rule.

Before diving into corporate life, Jill dabbled in a myriad of jobs. She was a singing, roller-skating waitress at Disneyland Paris, and nurtured the little ones of an Oscar-winning movie editor and an Oscar-nominated actress as a nanny.

Born in bonnie Scotland and then whisked off to England at a young age, Jill went on to live and work in vibrant cities such as London, Paris, New York, and Los Angeles. In 2000, she arrived in Sydney with just a backpack and never left. She now calls the Northern Beaches home.

 High Heels and Low Blows will be available in March 2024 and launched at the Manly Writers' Festival.
