Okanagan Author Getting Five Star Reviews

May 13, 2019 | 2:33 PM

An Okanagan woman is making the most of her chance as an author.

Blossom Turner of Lake Country wrote “Anna’s Secret,” a love story with a twist, that is set in the Okanagan.

Turner, a freelance writer, was able to get a publisher and the book launched this month on Amazon.

“After attending a writer’s conference last spring in California and submitting her manuscript to a company in the States, Blossom has accomplished the near impossible—a book deal with a traditional publishing company,” says a news release.

“After this past year of edits to hone the craft and present the best work possible Anna’s Secret launched May 1st and already has five-star reviews on both Goodreads and Amazon.”

Turner says she believes in writing for the entertainment value but admits that if enjoyment is the only take away, she would be most disappointed.

“Her book was written to provoke thought and action on how to deal with human failure and find power in the gift of forgiveness. All tied up in a love story and a happy ending of course.”

The book is available on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com, at the Kelowna Indigo in Orchard Park, and Mosaic Books downtown.

Turner will have a book signing on Friday May 17th from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Kennedy’s Parable Book Store.
