The Weekend Spa Break by Anne John-Ligali **Cover Reveal**


I am pleased to be able to bring you a sneak peak at the cover of Anne John-Ligali's The Weekend Spa Break. It is the second part in her Friendships On-line Series. You can read my review of Part One, The Big Event, here. 

What's it about? Here's a little about the story:
 

After finally meeting in person at the publishing party of the season, Constance and Estelle are determined not to let their friendship return to mere virtual champagne bottles and uploaded pictures of food.


It’s been a busy year, and Constance feels it’s time to reward herself with the spa break Estelle gave her for Christmas. Naturally, Constance wouldn’t dream of taking anyone other than Estelle, and this will provide the perfect opportunity to bond with her new chum. 


As the excited pair spend some quality time together, they realise it’s not just writing books they have in common, but something that goes much deeper. After a few Jacuzzi sessions, facials, pedicures, and a massage by sexy Senior Therapist, Julio, everything seems to be peachy until an unexpected visitor turns Constance’s weekend of bliss … on its head.
 

A two-day spa break.



Sparkling water on tap.



And the perfect massage.



But who’s rubbing who up the wrong way?



 And now... here's a look at the cover- I am sure you will like it...
