Release Day - Worth the Effort: Ella's Story

Yippee!! Worth the Effort: Ella's Story is finally released into the wild. I've redecorated my blog for the occasion. What do you think?

First and most important: THE BOOK. In case you missed it here is what it's all about:

Ella Jones is a coward. There is a teen boy living in the alley behind her work and she is terrified of him.

Desperate to leave behind the stereotypical and judgmental world she was raised in, Ella forces herself to make a true connection with seventeen-year-old Ayden Worth. As their friendship grows Ayden’s quiet, gentle ways teach her true courage.

But there’s more to Ayden’s story than Ella knows. When their worlds collide in the most unexpected place, Ella feels betrayed. Will she find the courage to learn who Ayden really is, or will she determine he’s not worth the effort?


WORTH THE EFFORT: Ella’s Story a young adult contemporary romance novella at 19,000 words.

It's short. It's cheap (only .99). What are you waiting for? This is where you can BUY IT.

    1. *snort* I need to pick a genre and stick with it. Then I wouldn't have to redecorate all the time. Thanks for visiting!

    1. Thanks Beverly. I thought the digs needed redecorating to make Ella and Ayden feel more at home. Sorry I'm just now responding. Silly Blogger neglected to tell me you commented :(
