Unlovable is now an audiobook!! If you click here yo...
Unlovable is now an audiobook!! If you click here you can get the audiobook for free with a 30 day free trial of Audible on Amazon!! You can't beat free!!
Along with the release of the audiobook, I've redesigned the covers of the first two books in the Port Fare series. ( I'm designing covers now. Click here and check them out!) To celebrate the new look, I am giving away paperback copies of the entire series. Here is the new cover for Unlovable. I didn't change it too much because I really loved the original one. (Thank you, Paul Beeley), but another author came out with almost the exact same cover, including the coloring :'(
I kept the girl on the swing because she fits Maggie's story perfectly, though I did add flowers to the swing. The rest has been changed completely. I love the blues and pinks, and I've always wanted a moon on the cover. I also added Maggie's trailer in the background!
Here is the eBook cover:
And this is the Paperback
This is the audio book cover.
This is the new cover for Unbelievable! It's a real change. I feel this cover fits the story so much better. Lilah feels trapped by her domineering father and his demands. She desperately wants to break free...can't tell you anymore or I'll spoil the story I feel this new cover portrays Lilah and what she is going through in a much stronger way, and it seems to fit in better with the other covers. While I loved the old cover, and had a huge say in its design, (Thank you again, Paul) it seemed out of place with book one & three's covers. This one holds the same "feel," if you will.Here is the Ebook cover:
And this is the paperback
Unbearable's cover didn't really change, only the back was updated.
So, what do you think??

Exciting News to Share!!!
Saturday night after returning from my daughters wedding, I checked my email to discover an email from the publisher, Creative Prose Publishing, offering me a contract for Raine, my first full length novel! To say I am excited would be an understatement as it took me FOREVER to say it out loud for fear that I would wake and my dream would pop!
When I first opened the email, I found it hard to read through my tears. I had to re-read it several times while my family asked me over and over if I was alright. I couldn't speak and all I could do was nod my head in affirmation. Yes, I was more than alright!
As of yet, I do not have an actual release date but the moment I return from my vacation I will be hitting the ground running. My first round of edits should be hitting my email in a matter of days, followed by some intense writing time for submission for the second round of edits.
In the mean time, I will be on the hunt for reviewers and bloggers to receive ARC, (advanced reader copies) to post reviews on blogs and online book review sites to help me spread the word. To say my work is done with submission is not even close to true, but to say that I am not excited for this journey is also false.
I cannot wait to make this journey as my first published full length takes flight, taking me on a ride of my life!
