Second Novel: Plot Preview

| 2 Comments

My second novel, The Other Side of the Bonfire, is scheduled for release in just over a week!

Reviews so far are very positive, and I’m looking forward to my favorite moment—the first time I get to hold the baby/book in my hands. I know e-books are the wave of the future, but I love the weight of a paper book. I love the sound of pages. Electrons will never replace that loving feeling.

To pass the time until the book is a reality, here’s what you could learn about the story by reading the back cover.

“When Jewel finds herself out on the sidewalk, desperately hoping the taxi will arrive before her cheating boyfriend gets home, she knows it’s time to make a new life. But how? She’s never lived alone, and she’s never loved a man she could trust. With the help of a childhood friend, a bonfire, a chance encounter, and a leap of faith, Jewel discovers a world of creativity and love in the last place she ever dreamed of looking.”
