My husband was a Facebook stalker for me.

True confession: I am that author. I am the author who buys her own book because she cannot wait to get it in the mail from the publisher! Ha! Actually, it’s because I am such a big Audible.com listener that when I found my own audiobook on Audible, I just had to get it! Goofy, I know.
