Yesterday\u2026 Oh, don\u2019t get me started on yesterday. Seriously not a good day. But it\u2019s behind me now so I\u2019m not going to bitch about it. Besides, the evening made up for it all. Last night I got word from my editor Loukie that she\u2019d completed her final review of Kissed by a Rose<\/a>,<\/em> and was just waiting for me to approve the edits. I stayed up late to do that and I\u2019m pleased to say that the final fair copy of the novel is now with the publisher awaiting a final sweep for typos by a proof reader before it can be packaged up into the finished e-book.<\/p>\n

I am thrilled.<\/p>\n

Release date is June 1st, but I\u2019m already getting great comments back from \u2018preview\u2019 readers about the book. If the reviewers are as positive about the book as the comments below\u2026 well, I\u2019ll be smiling all month long.<\/p>\n

I truly believe that KbaR<\/em> is the best thing I\u2019ve produced. There are elements of it that I can\u2019t quite believe I wrote. But I did. And I\u2019m proud of it.<\/p>\n

Anyway, here\u2019re are some of the preview readers\u2019 comments\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

I want to congratulate you on a well-executed piece of craft and wonderful love story. I\u2019<\/em>m impressed with your skill as a writer.<\/em><\/p>\n

The way you toy with the reader’s feelings about Chloe, is she using him, or is she not?\u00a0 It’s all very subtle and one is never completely sure.<\/em><\/p>\n

Adam is a brilliant character, I am half in love with him. \ud83d\ude09<\/em><\/p>\n

You make it all seem so effortless. A<\/em> very smooth reading experience.<\/em><\/p>\n

Every single one of your characters had the ring of truth.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I guess you can understand why I\u2019m pleased by these comments.<\/p>\n

Kissed by a Rose<\/a><\/em> will be available from the Phaze<\/a> website on June 1st. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
