LOCATION: The Cobblestone Cottage

This is an event that really excites me and I thank Arsine Rassam, the owner of the recently opened The Cobblestone Cottage, for the invite and the opportunity. The Cobblestone Cottage serves the most delicious afternoon teas imaginable and the timing for this event could not be better. Since it will be held during the month of May, the book signing will also be a fundraiser for the Hello May Foundation non-profit.

Hello May Foundation (https://www.hellomayfoundation.org/) offers several services for youth in foster care, including: Life Skills Workshops, Mentorship, Family atmosphere. The foundation seeks to improve the quality of life of young people and their personal development. A percentage of all book sales that day will be donated to this foundation. It is a cause I am more than honored to support.

Reservations for the tea at this venue are essential (except for this particular event where walk-ins are welcome) and must be made 24 hours ahead of the event by email at reservations@thecobblestonecottage.com  or by calling (702) 640-0691

In addition to signing copies of Discovering the Christmas Spirit, I will be signing copies of the award-winning The Chapel of Eternal Love – Wedding Stories from Las Vegas and the critically acclaimed sequel, Return to the Chapel of Eternal Love – Marriage Stories from Las Vegas, my cozy murder mystery, Murder Aboard the Queen Elizabeth II, and the 5-star rated, Discreetly Yours.

Hope to see some of you there.
