K.A. Mulenga Hi all. I'm excited to let you know that my new book, Susie Strickland Sizzling Striker launches on the 17th of June. If anyone is interested to be part of my launch team, please send me a DM and I will email you a PDF copy of the book. Once you have read it , I ask that you leave an honest review when it goes live.
Early reviews are the single most important factor in determining if a book succeeds so I'm incredibly thankful for people who can do me this huge favour and leave one.
Thanks so much for your support, I deeply appreciate it.
