It really is good to find an Indie auth...Hi Karen,<br /><br />It really is good to find an Indie author who takes the time and pays enough attention to detail, to ensure that their writing is as good as it can be technically. The odd mistake is bound to slip through (I know how many I make simply writing a post or replying to comments), however the overall perception is all important. I love the cover art of the book, although it might be a little too jolly for the undertaking Bethany is about to make :)<br />---------------------------------------------<br />Hi Sandra<br /><br />You chose your teaser lines from quite early on in the story, so you have kept us on the edge of our seats and given nothing away about what kind of reception Bethany gets, when and if she eventually finds her daughter, especially as you say that Karen writes "happy endings with a twist."<br /><br />Having been married for 36 years, I know by now, that I have to ask directly if I want something doing. Occasionally hubbie will take the hint, or even sometimes the initiative, but generally a more direct approach is needed. I do tend to store up all the 'infractions', as Bethany describes them, but it doesn't ever really get me anywhere :)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing, this sounds like a great story.<br /><br />Yvonne<br />Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2993930617464275848.post-27928860581619028572015-09-15T11:44:11.472-07:002015-09-15T11:44:11.472-07:00Sandy, I love the sound of this one.

This book was fun to write and was inspired by a college reunion I attended where I realized how much younger and more naive I once was. Of course, I like to keep my real life drama-free while creating troubles for my characters like I did in "A Weekend Getaway."
