And THANK YOU... for being a reader, buying my books, and telling
your friends about my novels. Without
you, I would not be celebrating this book release, one that marks twenty years
for me as a published author. I’m
incredibly grateful for this milestone.
Nearly 300 friends and fans came to the Aquarium to celebrate THE SUMMER'S END book launch with me. People from near and far. Some drove from Charlotte and
Highland, North Carolina. Others drove
in early from North Myrtle Beach, and a handful flew into town from Ohio. And my dear sweet daughter Gretta, endured
delayed flights and layovers from Los Angeles to Charleston, just to be with
me.

Gretta made it! I'm one very happy mama. |
Thank you all for making this book release extra special. You made me feel like a beautiful queen. It's a night I will never forget!
With THE SUMMER’S END now out on store shelves, I’m on the
road for book tour. I do hope you’ll
join me at an event near you. We’ll
talk, we’ll laugh and we’ll celebrate together our love for great books!

Watch this short video for a little back story about THE SUMMER’S END:
When you finish the final page of THE SUMMER’S END, take heart. All is not entirely over. My publisher has asked me to continue the story of Mamaw, and her three granddaughters—Eudora, Carson, and Harper. And this time, someone’s getting married! Look for the new book, LOWCOUNTRY WEDDING (working title) next summer.
For now though, I hope you thoroughly enjoy this next installment of the
Lowcountry Summer Series.
