Wouldn't You Know It...
Hey, Friends!
DIY Bride was hit by hackers sometime over the weekend and it looks like the site had been compromised for a while and we didn’t know it until it was brought down. Don’t fret: no user information was accessed.

Book #3 is DONE!
In addition to celebrating my son’s 2nd birthday this weekend (Happy Birthday, Zion!), I made the final touches to the manuscript for the 3rd DIY Bride book. In many ways it was like giving birth again - incredibly painful during the process with a big rush of adrenaline and love at the end. Look for An Affair To Remember on bookshelves next January.
