Favorite Handbag and Book welcomes author Estelle Pettersen - What's Trusty, Filled with Love and a Dog? and her book

 About the Handbag:

My favorite handbag is my trusty green handbag with love hearts and a little dog. It goes with a matching pair of shoes and both were given to me by one of my closest friends. The felt texture is soft and the green and pink colors are vivid and vibrant, making it stand out from the other handbags in my wardrobe.

The handbag isn’t a special brand but it does the trick if I want to brighten an outfit when attending an event. The handbag and shoes, especially the image of the dog, sure have caught people’s attention and serve as a great conversation starter to break the ice.

The inside of the handbag is cotton-candy pink but nobody really sees that except for me, as I keep my handbag closed. It can fit all the important things I carry – mobile phone, lipstick, a small vial of perfume, concealer, tissues, and my wallet.

It’s cute, fun, and a little different from everything else out there. The handbag goes with other shoes I have, so I can mix and match a bit. It’s the ideal accessory to brighten a winter, or to wear in the summer.

 

About the Book:

Convincing herself this is just another stepping stone, Elizabeth leaves the city and her fiancé, lawyer Paul Ricci, for a small town in rural Australia. Despite the scorching heat and pests, Bandara holds a charm of its own—Keith Starling, a handsome farmer with sky-blue eyes and a spellbinding smile.

What happens when Elizabeth returns to the city and discovers what Paul’s been hiding from her? Will she choose her career or everlasting love in the country with Keith? Find out in this steamy Australian romance novella, a prelude to the Starling Sisters series.

Answer these questions:

Red, White or Blue? Red.

Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter? Spring.

Cake or Pie? Can I have both? But if I had to choose, it would be pie.

Coffee, Tea, or Champagne? Definitely coffee. It’s what wakes me up in the mornings.

Country music or Michael Buble? That’s a tough one. I’ve heard good songs from both Michael Buble and country musicians like Garth Brooks and Kenny Rogers (the lyrics of “The Gambler” is brilliant), whose songs inspired some chapters in my country novella Elizabeth.

Pencil or Pen? Pen. I don’t mind getting ink on my fingers.
