Here's Rachel and her husband at Ashford Castle in Ireland. Why is Rachel glowing, you ask? Read on!
Occasionally, something happens in your life that you will
never forget for as long as you live. One such thing happened to me in August
2014.
I am a HUGE Nora Roberts/JD Robb fan and have been for
years. As I live in England, my chances of ever meeting her were slim to say
the least. So when I had an advertisement flash up on my computer screen that
she would be doing a one-time book signing in Ireland, I clicked on it
immediately.
The venue was a beautiful 5 star, luxury castle hotel in
County Mayo. The event would be afternoon tea with Nora, followed by an
interview and book signing. The cost of flights and a night at the hotel wasn’t
cheap and I didn’t hold out much hope, but I asked (begged!) my husband anyway.
He said he was sorry, but we couldn’t justify the money…
And then he went on to surprise me later that evening saying
he’d booked the flights, the tea and a night in the hotel!!
I darn near fainted!
It was everything I’d hoped it would be and more – I got to
meet and chat with Nora at the signing, and
again later in the hotel as she
walked through the bar. My life was complete!
The hotel and its gardens were stunning and I truly didn’t
want to leave – an unforgettable day and night.
Now, how can I persuade my husband to fly to Boonsboro,
Maryland for a Nora book signing and a night in her hotel…
