Book launch of BOUND by M. J. Stevens
Marianne attends the launch of M.J. Steven’s young adult novel, Bound.
Book launches – like weddings – are always happy affairs and M.J. Steven’s BOUND launch was no exception.
Following a lovely introduction by the author’s long term friend, Ruth Cohen, M.J. (Melanie) Stevens talked about how she’d taken the self-publishing journey because of her deep love for telling stories.
After that, she read the first chapter of BOUND keeping the audience enthralled and keen to find out what happened next.
From GoodReads:
‘No good deed ever goes unpunished, Mellea…’
Mellea Wendorn hasn’t exactly had a normal life. Misfortune seems to follow her, and her family, wherever she goes.
However, when Mellea stops to assist a mysterious young man suddenly her prior hardships seem trivial.
His name is Leo. He is a Successor, a child of the Guardians of Selestia.
He is royalty.
He is handsome.
And he wants Mellea completely to himself.
Unable to escape the Guardian’s laws, Mellea must learn the ways of the royals. She is convinced her life can’t get much worse. But when a timeworn Guardian enemy arises from the shadows, Mellea must make a choice that will change her destiny forever.
After that, we all got to mingle and eat and drink and I spoke to the author’s very proud mother, and some of her teachers.
Below are a selection of photos from the launch. We’ll have a review of the book up soon and in the meantime you can check it out on GoodReads.
