What a week!

 Oh my goodness! What an absolutely outstanding week it has been!

It started on Monday, with the trip to London for the prestigious RNA Awards night.

As you can see from the photos - both official and unofficial - I spent the entire time grinning like the Cheshire Cat. I've rarely had a prouder professional moment and the fabulous feeling has lasted all week long!

Having been safely carried home, the award now has pride of place on the writing room bookshelf next to my copies of A Christmas Celebration. I hope the Connelly family feel as proud as I do. Sleigh Rides and Silver Bells gifted me Sunday Times Bestseller status and now a return trip to the hall has bagged this outstanding award!

It was back to work the next day. By which I mean an extremely enjoyable meeting with the Team and Amanda, my agent, at S and S towers. We discussed all things Book-Lovers, settled on a title for the Christmas 23 book (soon to be revealed) and even considered future books. It was a hugely productive morning!

The Book-Lovers' Retreat blog tour will be underway soon and as you can see from the graphic, it's another full house. Huge thanks to everyone taking part!


And if this wasn't all enough to get you in the mood for my next book, the title is now available to request on Netgalley!

As I said, what a week!



I've got everything crossed that early readers will enjoy reading my first foray into standalone territory as much as I have enjoyed writing it!

Until next time my loves, take care and keep reading!
