JUSTINE
CHARLES, sensible and self-contained, battles an addiction which could
destroy her marriage, reputation, and relationship with her daughter.
DIONNE JONES, an aggressive go-getter, takes risks that cut a trail of devastation through her family and business.
KYRA MILLS, struggling single mother, is crippled by debt, bad judgment and destructive choices.
Can
two of the long-time friends survive startling revelations involving
their partners? And will the other push her obsession to the point of
danger?

ReplyDeleteHey, Mina,
DeleteThanks for dropping in at both places. I'll get your post ready ASAP. Looking forward to visiting with you too.
The theme of your tour is perfect for your book, which I loved BTW. Off to check out the first two stops.
ReplyDeleteYou're really touring the globe. I can't wait to carry the baton for a day.
ReplyDeleteHi, Kiru,
DeleteI'll be happy to visit your corner of the blogosphere.
Can't wait to have you on my blog.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're letting me crash there.
DeleteI read about you on Peaches blog, then to my surprise you came and visited me. Thank you. Your book looks very interesting. I hope it is on ebook. As I am legally blind in both eyes it is the only way I can read anymore. I miss holding a good old fashioned book. Sorry you just happened to stop by on the grossest post I have ever written. Good luck with everything. It's so fun being published. My third comes out in September. :) Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteMeynda,
DeleteThanks for coming by. I try to make it a habit to visit those who are kind enough to stop in and leave a comment, so no worries. Distraction is in e-version and print. Yes, it is good to be published. I'll check out your books. Lately, I've been on a read-other-bloggers'-books binge.
Thanks for your good wishes and stay away from that pool.
I enjoyed your guest blogging. I'm not a techie so don't know how to sign up for your contest. But I at least wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your world tour and the promo of your books.
ReplyDeletelove, LinnAnn Pike

ReplyDeleteSheena,
DeleteI like getting the reactions of Jamaicans to the novel. :)
Sounds like a really interesting story, I am interesting in learning more about the three women
ReplyDeleteIt's on my teetering TBR pile. As long as it doesn't fall on me, I'll get to it at some point.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Andrew! Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing you on my blog, Joy! :)
ReplyDeleteWell done and congrats on the book tour. It's a pity I could not get my copy of Distractions as we can't download from Amazon in Nigeria but I got the prequel on smash words. Thanks
ReplyDeleteLove your support and good wishes, guys.
ReplyDeleteAyabaodusote, sorry about that!
