Fossend Publishing: Sunlounger 2 Launch

Sunlounger 2 - Launch Party

Sunlounger 2 book cover

Yesterday I took some time out to attend the Sunlounger 2 book launch.

Sunlounger is the brainchild of women's fiction writer Belinda Jones. She has published over ten books set in fabulous locations such as Las Vegas, Capri, Tahiti and Greece. Her characters are funny, heartfelt and engaging, and the stories keep you hooked to the end.

Last year Belinda released an ebook called Sunlounger. It contained fourty-four stories written by some of the hottest writers in women's fiction. It was a fantastic book for summer, perfect for reading on the beach, by the pool or in the garden whilst sipping a sneaky cocktail. Every story took the reader to a different country, Austraila, Thailand and Jamaica to name a few. Reading it felt like you were travelling the world without having to get onto a plane and I absolutely loved it.

I was excited to hear that there would be a Sunlounger 2, and was lucky to get an invite to the launch yesterday at Trader Vic's London. It was great to catch up with bloggers, contributing writers and of course, Belinda herself.

Despite the inclement weather, the day had a fantastic holiday feel to it. Summer dresses in bright colours were out in force, accompanied by flip flops, sandals and sunglasses. Writers wore flower garlands, Mai-Tai's brimmed with fruit, and Tracy's T-Cakes provided some of the most beautifully decorated cakes I've ever seen!

I can't wait to read Sunlounger 2 this summer, it's going to be another fantastic holiday read, and I'm really looking forward to getting my copy, putting my feet up and getting stuck in. If, however, you can't wait that long, Belinda's latest book The Travelling Tea Shop, set in New York and along the East Coast of the USA, was released yesterday.
