Hi all you lovely people who subscribe to my blog. I’m snuggled up in my warm house working on my next book. The last one, entitled GRAVY, is due to release at the end of January.

Speaking of my last book, I wonder if any of you would like a free advance review copy in digital format. If so, I’d love you to join my street team. In return, I will send you an advance review copy in your preferred format (pdf, Word, mobi for Kindle, epub.) as soon as you let me know what you want.

If you have already served on a street team, you know the drill, but if not, here’s what I’m looking for: I hope my team members will post reviews (maybe a long paragraph?) on Amazon, Goodreads, and Barnes and Noble Websites, as well as any other places your heart desires. You note when you post your review that you received an advance review copy or they will try to make you buy the book before they allow you to post a review.

It would also be lovely if you would promote my book on your own social media when there’s something to promote, for example, when the book is available for preorder, when it actually releases, when it’s available at sale prices, and if it wins an award. (I’m applying for several.) I will of course, let you know about any of those events.

It’s been nominated for a 2022 Reader’s Choice Award, so I would love it if you would vote for it when the time comes. I will email you with the link for voting when there are actual books to vote for. If you are willing to join the team.

I hope you’ll say yes to being on my street team and I promise not to make that burdensome—although I have to admit that the book is long at about 100,000 words.

Here is my elevator pitch: Struggling to act normal, whatever that means, Connor William Conroy, a farm boy just back from combat in the Southwest Pacific with shell shock, meets a girl. But he doesn’t remember how to behave—and then there are the flashbacks.

As a WAC (and nightclub singer) Bobbi Bowen understands Connor better than most, but he’s seen and done things she can’t even imagine. Still, she knows poverty and despair that drove her into the nightclubs in the first place and she doesn’t ever want to be hungry again. She think’s Connor’s The One, but what’s next?
