If I could put the some of the tone of it to music, it would be as in the above video.
I feel like I’ve accomplished something with this book – lots of mystery and intrigue, yet funny and heartwarming, characters you come to love even though they can sometimes be insufferable, and something about love – with honey, not syrup, and believable.
Book – Dawn at Last – Why it’s not Free . . . Yet
Before I can give my book away on Amazon – and I can only do that for a few days – I’d really like to get a “critical mass” of people who like to read on Kindle – get my book out there for free for awhile – it really is a nice read.
Also, I’ve rewritten the “blurb” – this is such a hard thing to write! I’m still waiting for Amazon to update the new one, so here’s what it says:
_________________________________________________________________
New Blurb – Don’t be fooled by the Title!
Titles can be deceiving and no one knows this better than Donna Belauche. She is the envy of every woman she knows and adored by her eight male clients and two partners . . . or is it seven and three?
With her natural beauty, education and “special” training – and with her ability to charm on a dime – she has it all, but only according to others. She prides herself in playing the game of love, winning by acting and remaining unattainable . . . but in control.
Then her plans become unravelled in sleepy Victoria, a deception of its own . . . her secrets are only a pale part of the bigger picture. As events unfold beyond her control, what was once all so predictable becomes a battle with the past, a duel with deception, including the intrusion of a few simple tulips . . . will she learn to dance or will they cripple her forever?
“Then the strangest thing happened . . . Karen covered her naked body with Andrea’s robe, put her hair up and then put on that chauffeur’s hat . . . she told me to sit down again and just wait there for a minute. Then she went over to this platter. It had three tulips on it, but she only left one on the platter and put the lid back on. Then she disappeared with this platter – after all this – such a fuss over a single tulip?”
After 300 pages you will have the answers.

So there you have it. Now to get that free copy – when its available – the best way is to follow me on twitter @ljgrodecki.
I’m hoping/ planning to do this launch two weeks from now – May 17th – depending on how much interest there is . . . and if you’re wondering why there is an error message up in the top right, under “Tweeter in Person”, that’s probably because as of this typing, I’m still a tweet virgin . . . I haven’t tweeted anyone yet . . . I’m so nervous as to who will be the first! 🙂
Don’t feel so sheepish about the tweeting. I’m even more virginal than you in that world. By the way, did you self-publish? If it sounds like a dumb question: my friend shared her plans to do so on Amzn.

Thanks Diana – I’m going to hold off on commenting about sheep and virgins – as for self-publishing, that’s not a dumb question at all. It seemed to work out nicely for Mark Twain and many others . . . yes, I’m self-published, and my books only available as an ebook for now.
Thanks for dropping by,
Lawrence
PS – Maybe I’ll give myself over to Madonna, in terms of the first one – she probably won’t even notice! ha ha
Lawrence, love the music with the typewriter. Also your blurb is great. Have tweeted for you and shared on Google. May it go far and wide. Best Wishes, Jill
Wow Jill, I can’t thank you enough – so very much appreciated – thank you! 🙂
