When my fabulous agent Rachelle Gardner called in January to say Melissa Endlich of Love Inspired wanted to buy my novel, November seemed so far away. The months have flown past at a flip book pace.
Lakeside Reunion goes on sale tomorrow at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. It will be in stores next week. I’ve signed the contract, done the revisions, seen the cover, and finally held the book in my hands. Joy spread through my soul. Now let’s celebrate!

I can only imagine your joy!! I love the title–it makes me think of wonderful love stories already:))
Lisa,
It's so fun to celebrate with you!
I can't wait to go to the store next week and buy multiple copies of Lakeside Reunion! I did promise Jeanne T. I'd leave a few copies for her!
What fun, Lisa! Except, U.S. residents only?! That leaves me out 🙁
Sooo excited for you!
Congratulations!!
I'll be looking for it, but sadly, they won't get into Walmart until early November.
Congratulations, Lisa! Hope you sell lots of books tomorrow. It sounds like a great story. I can't wait to read it!
Coming late to the party, but I'm so excited for you, Lisa. You've lined up lots of blogs. That's going to be fun.
I'm thanking Beth for leaving me a few copies of your books. 🙂 I'm already planning to buy some for gifts for people. 🙂
Congratulations, Lisa! The blog hop sounds like fun.
