A Freebie for Christmas

Hi everyone
I'd like to wish you a wonderful holiday. I wish you all happiness for the season and upcoming year.

At the end of reading my novel, Unwrapping Ainsley, you would have been advised of Sheldon's story which would come out today. As promised, here's Sheldon's story, Ring My Bell which you can claim for FREE on Prolific Works. It came out longer than I expected. I hope you enjoy it.

Gianni Holmes answered Maddox West's question: Do you ever plan on adding more character art on your page? I really enjoy looking at those. I love the art styles, especially the art style for blooms!
