This book has been an absolute joy to write and a
nightmare to release. But it’s there now. The cover posted on the Amazon page looks
so darn cute. Maybe because the sweet sleeping puppy called Sam is one of the
characters in the story.

The month and a half it took to write this book was
a fun time for me. The song echoed in my head periodically to remind me of

let go of his memories. So he wouldn’t
miss the love right in front of him. In the song it said – And it’s just breakin’
my heart cause she’s not you. Maybe not, but she was better.
Belle Foster soon became real to me also. As a
mother myself, I felt her worries and fears for her little girl. She’s a woman
who’s had so much to overcome, most of all a belief in her own worth.

And Layla, the child, could be anyone’s daughter or
granddaughter. Mischievous and cute as a button, she gets into your heart, digs
a hole and won’t be shook loose.

of romance.
