Book Launch Party for LOVE CHOSEN...What A Blast!

Last night was the launch party for my debut novel, LOVE CHOSEN, and I wanted to take a moment to send a huge SHOUT OUT to all of my friends and family who showed up to celebrate with me! Oh. My. Gosh! What a thrill!!!
But they say a picture is worth a thousand words (and I guarantee a writer did NOT coin that phrase!), so I'm posting some pics of some of the wonderful people who were there...

In case you didn't get this from my bio (which will tell you I have scads of kids), family is so very important to me. So, this is my grandma, Mildred Miller, who absolutely is an amazing woman!

Of course, I couldn't have done this by myself. There were some fantastic people who helped put it all together. Carrie (to the left, with me) made the most amazing invitations; Jennifer and Elizabeth (my go-to girls) ordered the cake, did some social marketing magic, and made my life easier (did I mention they're my daughters?); Dianne and Jerri, the wonderful sweet women who own The Stockyards (how did I NOT get a picture of them?); Cassandra and Kirk, two of my kids who work there, who flitted around helping everywhere (again, no pics of them...); and my Honey, who cut the cake and was his usual heroic self ;-)

My Honey, my hero...

Isaac, my grandson

Edna, Jennifer, and Edna's daughter,  Kimberlyn

Rachel and Stacy

Vicki and her daughter, Christa

Tracy and my other grandson, Bentley
(we share the grandsons, lol)

My amazing, supportive
Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Gary

Writer friends: Deb, Sunshine, Kaeli, and Paul...notice who is
MISSING? Vicki and Mike... Mike because he's visiting family and
Vicki because I promised, lol...

As I prepare to post, I notice how many people I didn't get pictures of but were there... I'm sorry guys :-( I know how much everyone LOVES getting pictures taken, lol...
Anyway, it was a fan-friggen-tabulous time! And I am so thankful for every one who came by or raised a glass from afar in celebration with me.
Hugs!
Marne Ann

Cover Art for "Love Chosen: Book One of the Fae Dragon Chronicles"

Back of the Book Blurb:

For millennia, dragon and fae have peacefully co-existed, but the fae themselves have lived segregated and very different lives.

Now a malevolence threatens to separate them all permanently. Can a Queen's guard and a rebellious outlaw join forces to defeat this common enemy?

Tyler's touch sparks fierce desire, drawing Issie to him, but she despises his way of life and all that palace society represents. If he learns she wields majic to help the less fortunate escape the kingdom, he'll charge her with treason. Her punishment - death.

Issie is a sassy rebel who is constantly looking for ways to circumvent the conventions of their society. Tyler's head warns that she's a non-majical lower, beneath him. His heart sees by her inner strength and outer beauty. Only a binding love will lend them strength to save her life - their world.

Can either of them bend enough to trust that love?

So, this is IT!

The Cover Art for LOVE CHOSEN...

Yep, I'm ecstatic over it!

Jeannie Ruesch is the gifted artist who designed it. Smooches to her for being A-Mazing! And Double Smooches and Hugs to Crescent Moon Press for asking me what images I felt were important to the story. I have not extolled CMP's value as a publisher nearly enough... they are fabulous people to work with. Seriously. Fantastic.

The book will be available as an e-book first, at the end of March.

It will be available in print format shortly after.

So, I know I love it; but what do YOU think of the cover?
