The Girl Who Came Home – available to pre-order!

I’m not sure if I will ever stop getting butterflies in my tummy when I post updates like this, because I am so excited to see that the new paperback version of THE GIRL WHO CAME HOME is now available to pre-order on Amazon!

The link to the Amazon page is here and the pre-order price is $9.48. The book will be available on April 1, 2014.

This time last year, I’d just completed my second novel and was anxiously awaiting feedback from the publishers it had been submitted to. I am now working on edits of that second novel which is due to be published in January 2015 and here I am, blogging about my first novel’s pre-order status. What a difference twelve months can make!
