WATERSIDE ROMANCE

Life moves slower in California.

And since returning home, I've been slowly drifting through a glorious early spring.

I never meant my blog break to go on this long.

Perhaps, I'm still on California time, because a week turned into two weeks, turned into more than a month.

But now I'm back with exciting news.

WATERSIDE COTTAGES is featured in the June issue of ROMANTIC HOMES magazine!

Yesterday, my dear friend Lidy of French Garden House tipped me off. She sent me a message that read:

"Hey! How great to see my friends at Romantic Homes feature your book this issue. Yippee. :) xoxo Lidy"

My issue had arrived in the mail but I hadn't had a spare second to sit down and read it.

Needless to say, I ran to the pile of mail on my pantry counter and started flipping pages.

Voila!

The issue is on sale now, and it's a great one, so don't miss it.

Oh wow - that is fabulous.
Now I just have to wait for my copy to get over here to Australia. I will be checking the mail every day and listening for the mailman on his bike.

Found your book at Barnes and Noble and simply could not resist it! It is beautiful...and the cover is what drew me across the room to pick it up off of the shelf...just beautiful.

Thank you and CONGRATULATIONS on your book!
