Tidewater Bride is here!
It’s always a joy when I get my author copies of a new release. Fun to put them on my bookshelf and admire the book’s spine and back cover which I never see until the reader does. Sometimes I take a random peek inside though I never reread my novels once they’re in print. How I’d love to come to …
