Romance writers sometimes get accused of writing about unrealistic men. Of making up guys who do and say things no mortal man ever would. I frequently accuse my significant other of crushing romance under his shoe like a bug.
And then, he goes and does something totally sweet and unexpected.
On Saturday, he surprised me with a silver necklace in honor of Karma Girl’s release. The necklace was nice enough in and of itself.
But wait, there’s more.
Because on the end of this necklace dangled … wait for it … wait for it …Â a book charm!
A silver rectangular book charm with a teeny diamond set in the center. (Actually, the book was a Bible, but he had the jewelers grind the words off so it would just look like a book. I don’t think God will mind … too much.) I admit it — I melted a little. All right, a whole lot.
But wait, there’s more.
Because I’ve also been told by my significant other — hypothetically of course — that I might be receiving some Karma Girl T-shirts in the near future. Again, this is just hypothetical. But stiil. Melting a little more.
My mom and grandma also gave me congrats cards and yummy chocolate cake yesterday too. 😎
What about you? What have you or others done to mark the release of your first book? Inquiring minds want to know …
