RELEASE DAY! Charlie’s Hero

Today I have reason to celebrateย – my first novel length story releases today! Yippee! *jumping for joy*

I am so excited to see Charlie’s Hero finally come to life, and to bring you the story of Charlie and Josh, two characters who hold a special place in my heart. And because it’s my first book being released in paperback, I’ve arranged a blog tour. I do hope you get a chance to follow the tour. There’ll be guest posts, character bios, exclusive excerpts, a couple of interviews and a giveaway of a $20 Amazon Gift Card.

CharliesHero_postcard_front_DSP

Here’s a bit aboutย the book.

Schoolteacher Charlie Matthews returns to his hometown, looking to regain a sense of community, reconnect with friends, and settle down. It looks like his dreams have come true when paramedic Josh Campbell attends an accident at the school. Itโ€™s love at first sight, and a romance begins.

But Joshโ€™s reluctance to come out to the brother who raised him, puts pressure on their fledgling relationship. While Charlie understands Joshโ€™s concerns, he canโ€™t help growing impatient. After all, Charlie came out years ago.

Itโ€™s not until Charlie confronts his own parents and realizes he hasnโ€™t come to terms with their rejection that he fully understands what Josh has to lose. But Josh is Charlieโ€™s hero, and Josh will do anything to prove to Charlie that to be part of a family, he doesnโ€™t need his parents.

I do hope you enjoy the story and the tour.

Happy reading,

Nic xx

    Hello!

    I am unsure how to follow your blog tour and was wondering if you can give me some guidance please?

    This is a well written post and I bet your book will be just as thrilling!

    Unfortunately I am unable to purchase your book due to financial difficulty.

    I have always wanted to create my own project and novel and considering this is your first was wondering if you could personally tutor me and join forces in creating one?

    I am a passionate and committed writer when i have an idea and would love to write my first novel with your help!

    After the first I can be even more inspired to continue my own trend should you be unable to help.

    Hope you can!

    Please get in contact with me to find a way we can talk about this privately!

    Peace

    Jason.

    Thank you for commenting on my post, Jason. Writing your first book can be a very daunting but exciting endeavour. I think you are doing the right thing in reaching out for guidance and support, particularly if you are unsure of the process and want to ensure your story is the best it can be. Unfortunately I don’t have the time to assist you but wish you all the best in finding someone and best of luck on your writing journey. Nic xx

Stepping in to protect my younger brother was a no-brainer. Now I have to pay the consequences and repair my tarnished reputation. That means facing my demons and spending ten days at sea on a cruise ship. At least itโ€™s for a good cause.

Thanks to my interfering family, Iโ€™m thrust into a world of extravagance and dazzling spectacle. Iโ€™d much rather be at home in the vineyard. That is, until I find an undeniable connection with a gorgeous, brooding passenger. Imagine my surprise when I find out heโ€™s an award-winning performer. Why on earth would he want to spend time with me?

Itโ€™s only a cruise, a bit of fun, not a life commitment, and as my brother said --weโ€™re not here for a long time, weโ€™re here for a good timeโ€”so Iโ€™m determined to enjoy the limited time we have. I just wish my heart got the message.
