Last Day to Download Distraction Free!


Of late, I’ve been neglecting this blog ‘cause I’ve been on tour with Distraction. Last week, I made a spur-of-the-moment decision to make Distraction a free download on Amazon. If you haven’t gotten your copy, you can click the link here. This is the last day the book will be free, so grab your copy.

The prequel to Distraction is A Baker’s Dozen: Thirteen Steps to Distraction. In that book, you’ll meet Dionne, Kyra and Justine a year before Distraction takes place. I hope you’ll like this taste of friendship and things Jamaican. Download your complimentary copy from Smashwords.

Back to my tour—today’s tour activity involves a stop in Britain, with Kiru Taye, writer of sensual romance novels. I’m over there talking a little bit about story crafting. Join us, if you have a minute.

Have a great week and holiday—for those of you who live in America!
