First of all, I wanted to thank everyone for their encouragement and support in the comments and emails I’ve received. It’s really appreciated!
Delicious and Suspicious releases today and I couldn’t be more excited. :) I think I’m going to drag my family out to the bookstore so they can see it on the shelf.
Berkley Prime Crime ran a short Q&A with me and put it up on their website. Looking in their sidebar, I’m thrilled to see my book alongside such great July releases.
My contest went really well and thanks so much to all of you who entered—I wish everyone could have won. I put all the entries, double and triple entries into a randomizer and the winner is:
Juliette Harrisson from the United Kingdom! Congratulations, Juliette. :)
Thanks so much, everybody!

Congrats! Heading to the store soon as I can tomorrow to pick it up.
Hooray!! Happy release day!!
Yay you for the release! Congrats! :)
Congratulations, Elizabeth. I couldn't be more excited than if I had written the book myself.
All the best. And you are the BEST.
Yay! Release day - (sings) please release me, let me go!
I am so looking forward to getting both your books in the next week! I decided when I ordered to wait for them to come together! You must be so psyched to see them all shiny and beeeyoootiful on shelves. I'll see if my independent book store stocks them here!
Elizabeth - Congratulations! I am so very happy for you! I can't wait to get my copy, too. This is great : ). And congratulations to Juliette, too.
Congratulations on your release date. I saw the Q&A with Berkley, that was nice.
Congratulations to Juliette too.

Congrats on release day, and how wonderful to be able to see your book on the shelf at the bookstore.
Congrats, Elizabeth (aka Riley). I'm buying my copy of DELICIOUS AND SUSPICIOUS at the bookstore tomorrow. I cannot wait to kick back on my porch with a tall glass of sweet tea and finally meet Lulu and the Graces. Cheers!
Congrats to Juliette!
Thanks for having the contest, Elizabeth! Happy release day! Have fun!!!
Congratulations and good luck on the new series!
Three cheers for you!!!

Cleo--Thank you! Lulu has saved you a spot on the front porch. :)
Laura--It's been a fun day so far. :) I just got Riley Adams set up on Facebook and now she's getting some friends.
