 shy-town-girls-ivy1[1]

This is the second book in the Shy Town series and it focuses on Ivy.  Ivy is a twenty-something girl-about-town, who is a rising star in the advertising industry.  She lives with her best friend Ella, and another girl, Bobbie.  A fourth girl, Meryl, rounds out their gang.  Their world is based in Chicago and filled with work drama, fashion dilemmas and romantic entanglements.   Ivy seems to find trouble wherever she turns.  Despite knowing she shouldn’t mix work with pleasure, Ivy starts dating one of her clients.  Matters get more complicated when she develops feelings for her best friend’s brother, Shane.  Add some daddy issues to the mix, and the angst of being a quarter century old, and you’ve got yourself a story.  Continue Reading at Chick Lit Plus.

Upcoming Releases: November

To me November marks the end of the harvest season and the approach of winter.  In other words, it’s starting to get very chilly!  So, I’m grateful that there are some wonderful (and in some cases long) books coming out this month that I can curl up with and savor after a big Thanksgiving dinner.
