Irish Novels On Sale—25% Off All 7!

1st Ballydara novel, free everywhere!
Do you like warmhearted Irish love stories? And ebooks? Then come with me to the cozy little Village of Ballydara!

My Ballydara novels are all about love and friendship and family—but some, like It Only Takes Once, are more of a romantic comedy. 

And though all my Irish novels are available separately in ebook format, I’ve also packaged them up in ebook box sets …to give readers like you a special price!

My first four Village of Ballydara Irish novels make up Box Set 1…you see I loved this red-haired girl so much she got to be on this book cover too! 

The set also includes The Galway Girls, which features two love stories, plus a little start up farm, a gardening plotline, and chickens!

Irish Box Set 1


Ballydara Box Set 2
The Galway Girls
’ follow-up is a trilogy of novels featuring Dublin girl Emma, her beloved little sister Hazel, and the love of her life Declan—Box Set 2 of Ballydara novels. 

The set also includes two novelette-length short stories about Declan’s family, set in the misty green hills of County Galway. 

I’m delighted to announce Kobo Books has selected both sets for their current promo, 25% Off Box Sets Sale… code MAYBOX!

Now, a lot of you may focus on Amazon or Apple to look for great reads, and they are wonderful ebook retailers. 

Kobo Books might be unfamiliar, but it’s a terrific platform too. It’s based in Toronto, Canada, and they have a wonderfully supportive team that publishes ebooks, with frequent sales and promotions!

Kobo Books is such a terrific place to buy books, I like to return the favor by making my Emma trilogy, Box Set 2, exclusive to Kobo. Although you can find the book at all ebook retailers, if you’d like to see it on Kobo, just scroll down to “Even more boxsets and bundles”!

Of course, most people might like to read just one book in the series before taking on a box set. Here’s a way to check out the series risk-free…

My first novel, It Only Takes Once, pictured above, is free at all ebook retailers—Amazon, B&N, Apple, Kobo and every other online bookstore you can think of! 

There’s more about It Only Takes Once on my website’s Village of Ballydara page.

You’ll find all about the rest of my Village of Ballydara books and more “Free to Read” homesteady reads and fiction at my website too…

The Kobo 25% Off Box Set Sale won’t last forever—it’s good through Sunday, May 12. So I hope you’ll take a look…

And keep in mind that all my books, whether my Irish novels or my Little Farm books, are available at your local public library—just put in a request!
