I won't have any sort of release date for awhile, but I'll be working hard this semester (in between grading freshman essays!) to finish up the content and line edits. Next, it's the book cover and then a release date. I'm hoping for early 2017. Exciting!
Here's a blurb I recently wrote, which sums up the plot. This book focuses on Julia, Old Mr. Bentley's daughter:
Julia Bentley has just spent her fortieth birthday doing what she always does—baking treats for the customers in her Cotswold bakery and taking care of her elderly father. She doesn’t realize how stagnant her life has become until a younger man, Tristan Hannigan, arrives at the village. As Julia grows closer to Tristan, he begins to season her mundane days and to challenge her insecurities about herself and how she views the world.
But the relationship is threatened when Julia’s doubts become too
great and a secret she's keeping creates a wedge between them. Will
Julia choose the easy route, slipping back into her daily routine and
living without love? Or will she find the courage to follow her heart
and accept the love she deserves?
I'll be sure to keep my website current with updates along the way.
