I am very excited about this book signing – my first ever at this type of event. Hoping the clientele who plan on attending will not get side-tracked at the roulette wheel or crap tables in the casino on their way to grand ballroom where the fair is being held and never get there!!
I will be selling copies of all five of my novels – Discreetly Yours, The Chapel of Eternal Love, Return to the Chapel of Eternal Love, Murder Aboard the Queen Elizabeth II, and yes, even my holiday fiction, Discovering the Christmas Spirit.
I would like to thank Las Vegas Events for sponsoring this fair.
