Two New Books and a Contest to Celebrate Them
I've been busy lately, and as a result I'm pleased to announce the release of two new books I've written. The first is Rosalinda's Revenge, a Regency set in 1812 London and Boston. The second is a sweet contemporary romance, titled Grounds for Love, set in contemporary, coffee-loving Portland, Oregon.
Do your friends and family describe you as a real character? Well, now you have the chance to be one!
To celebrate the release of Grounds for Love and Rosalinda's Revenge, I've designed a contest. First prize is the opportunity to have a character named after you in my next novel, along with a free electronic copy of the book when it is published.
Second prize is a Starbuck's coffee card, good anywhere in the US, Canada, and select countries worldwide (If you win second prize and you live in country that doesn't have a Starbuck's, I'll substitute something of equal value.) |
To enter, just answer either one of these questions:
In Rosalinda's Revenge, what is the name of Rosalinda's Boston friend and wife of former US president John Adams?
OR
In Grounds for Love, what is the name of Jenny Vaughn's much loved but admittedly ugly mongrel dog? (For clues read the excerpts or my latest newsletter). Enter now--the contest ends June 21 (the longest day of the year) and winners will be announced the next day.
