AW: I published another novel, WITH TIP!

[smock]

Hi all! I published another novel, and this one has major trouble in paradise. 

It's about a Venetian girl who runs away from an arranged marriage. But that's not all--she finds out that her fiancé has a pregnant mistress! And when she runs, she has to disguise herself as a boy! Talk about TIP. 

So if you like Venice, runaway brides, pesky Inquisitors, cross-dressing girls, Galileo, and fortune-telling beans, you'll love The Zorzi Affair.

It's a coming-of-age story, set in seventeenth-century Italy, that combines historical fiction with a hint of romance.

It's on Amazon now!

You're welcome! I'd been meaning to buy your first one, so it was a good reminder!

I'm about to buy them both to enjoy on my flights this weekend!

Great! I'm flying tomorrow, too. If I run into you at the airport, want me to sign your kindle?

Hey smock, I liked this second book even more than your first! And I can't thank you enough for giving me a couple hours of pleasant distraction from annoying family members over the holiday weekend

I'm so glad you liked it! I really appreciate all the positive feedback. And I'd love it if you could post a review on Amazon!
