Just heard from my publisher today that he is not pleased with how my book cover turned out and he will be changing it. So, this means a delay in the first print run.

Dawn and Rose,

Thanks so much for your sweet and encouraging comments! I just gave away two copies of the book in a contest on Goodreads. If you haven't joined Goodreads, I strongly recommended the site. There are loads of book recommendations and reviews, and there are always several book giveaway contests going on. Check it out. Maybe we can become Goodreads "friends."
