Eliza Bluebell - Free on Amazon - Sunday, 19th March, 2017

On Sunday, 19th March I turn 40. I could say where did the time go and look back and wonder if I have made the right choices in life, but instead I would prefer to look forward. The best is yet to come and I am truly grateful for the warm, loving people in my life. To celebrate my naughty forties, I am giving away Eliza Bluebell in eBook format , for free, on Amazon for one day only.
