The weather is heating up down here in South Australia, which means it’s time to come out of hibernation and be social again. The birthday gauntlet started in September and will continue right up to a week before Christmas.\u00a0 I even attended a wedding recently, first one post pandemic. It was such a beautiful event at a scenic beachside location.\u00a0Between the hay fever and romance, my eyes wouldn\u2019t stop gushing. Yes, I\u2019m one of those people who cry at weddings. Even books, TV, and movies set me off. Speaking of which\u2026<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The excitement builds both on and off the page as I prepare to launch the second book in the Winter’s Magic<\/i> series. If you enjoyed Winter’s Maiden 1<\/b><\/i>, you’ll love this one. It delivers more action, more intrigue, and much more heat!\u00a0Just be prepared for some emotional moments because I broke my own heart writing this novel. I\u2019m surprised my keyboard survived after all the tears I shed on it.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

I\u2019d like to take a moment to recognize an important person in my life. My dear mum, who lost her battle with Alzheimer\u2019s earlier this year. Throughout my life, Mum wasn\u2019t just a wonderful parent; she was my best friend. I dedicated Winter\u2019s Maiden 1<\/em><\/strong> to her because she really did bring magic into my world. She taught me much of what I know about spirituality and wiccan practices as well as mythology. Given the timing of the Winter\u2019s Maiden 2<\/em><\/strong> release, I felt it was only fitting to commemorate her life on the eternal page.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

\u2014 In loving memory of Joan Elizabeth. Your legacy is the love you inspired in the lives you touched.<\/b><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
