Reviews
“From the first pages I was mesmerised by Lek and the other working girls, their hard life styles and thoughts, so dif erent from our own western way of life and aspirations. Couldn't put it down til I'd finished.”
RLJ, Barry, South Wales
“I enjoyed this book very much and would recommend it. I like stories that take place in foreign countries, so this was right up my alley. It was an easy read and flowed smoothly. Owen did a great job of creating a character readers could connect with and care about. I loved learning little tidbits about the Thai culture and the author's descriptions allowed me to be able to picture the scenes and get a sense of what it might be like to actually be there. I appreciated learning the back story of Lek and the circumstances that led to her working as a bar girl in Pattaya. Often we only see one side of the sex industry in countries like Thailand and the rest is left up to our own assumptions. The story ended rather abruptly (I wasn't expecting it) so I'm looking forward to the sequel and finding out what happens next!”

“I bought your book, Behind The Smile, and enjoyed it tremendously. Your writing style is the sort that I like, it does not take my mind away from the story or the characters. You certainly give the impression that the book was written with fluency although I am sure you spent a lot of time playing with it.
The book is a good read and an accurate description of the world of a Thai bar worker. It is very hard to come to terms with how bar girls live as our cultures are so very dif erent. We may have met at the same place but we took very dif erent routes to get there. There is very little common ground to build upon. This book gives a real insight into their lives, hopes and aspirations.
I would recommend this to anyone with a Thai girlfriend, not as a warning but as a help in understanding her life. If it saves one argument then it’s money wel spent. I think it would dispel a lot of prejudices if more people read it, if only those with prejudices cared enough to buy it. If you ever do a sequel put me down for one.”

Look Out for the Sequel:
“An Exciting Future”
Dedication
This book is dedicated to all the girls in Pattaya who told me their stories and gave me the idea and the encouragement to write them down.
