This one is obvious for those of you who know my blog. This is the best country in all of Africa just because I came from here. My new book Midwife To Destiny released by Decadent Publishing is set in Ghana (and a little in South Africa). Here is a picture of one of the beaches I went to visit a few years ago. It’s not the same one that Ora and her cousin Esi hold their party at, but it would have been a nice place to boogie down. I had a lot of fun looking through my old pics.

My latest release is set in Ghana and South Africa.
Blurb
Ghanaian
nurse Aurora ‘Ora’ Aikins never expected to find the love of her life while on
vacation in South Africa. Engaged to another and believing that love has no
place in her life, she returns to Ghana, and puts duty and honor first.
Three
years later, Dr. Jason Lartey still can’t get Ora out of his mind or his heart.
After learning she never married, he takes a risk and moves to Ghana hoping to
rekindle what they started. His sudden appearance in Ora’s Emergency Department
sends sparks flying all over again.
They’re
in the same country, working in the same hospital, and together but distance
creeps between them. Can they make their destined love one for the ages?

DeleteI love the sunset photo. Beautiful scenery, beautiful gal.
ReplyDeleteThat's one of my favorite's too. I couldn't even capture the splendor of the colors. Thanks for the compliments, Lynda- I'm giggling.
DeleteLovely photo! Ghana seems like a beautiful place!
ReplyDeleteIt is. Just like anywhere though, some places are nicer than others.
DeleteGhana looks lovely. That pointing photo is really clever and fun. Before reading your blog I only knew where Ghana was, and that it was English speaking.
ReplyDeleteI sigh with pleasure that you like my photo, Rhonda. I'm glad I taught you a tad bit more about my country.
DeleteGhana sounds great. You really love Africa and Ghana of course.
ReplyDeleteI do. There is peace here and that's important. Plus we are the #2 cocoa producers in the world. Go Ghana!
DeleteWow... such lovely photographs. And yes, Ghana becomes a great place just because you hail from there.

DeleteGreat pictures! The sunset one is especially pretty...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Heather. It's one of my favorites.
DeleteWonderful photos. I had to laugh as I would have been with you watching the paragliding but not doing it. I'd be way too chicken for that.
ReplyDeleteLol. We would have been oohhing and aahhing with a couple of gasps on the sidelines together.
DeleteYou're very lucky to live in such a beautiful place as Ghana. Africa is such a big, diverse continent, and so interesting. I'm enjoying all your posts. Could you put a picture of Mr. Boris Kodjoe at the end of each post, just um... because we all like to look at him : -D
ReplyDeleteLol. Debbie. I can't even respond properly because I'm laughing so hard.
DeleteI like view in the first and second pictures.
ReplyDeleteThanks, J.L.
