Candlelight Reads blog is hosting its very first blog hop and in this season of hearts and swooning, the focus is on “Home is Where the Heart Is.” Most of us know what constitutes home for ourselves.  We all know who – or what – holds our hearts, and that is where home is for us.

 

But, some of us may not have a home. We may be wanderers. We could be anything really. Just like our characters or the characters we’ve read about.

So, eight bloggers have joined forces for four days, February 15-18, to give you an insight into what makes a home for our characters or characters we’ve read about! 

In my Christian romance novel series Cascade Brides: Three Novels of Faith, Hope, and Charity, three estranged sisters named for the mountains, each in the far-flung reaches of the state, are drawn back to their childhood home in Sisters, Oregon by men who ultimately help the siblings realize the blessings of family bonds.

Once lucky commenter will be randomly chosen to win a Kindle copy of the series.    

Oh, and don’t forget to enter the Rafflecopter below for the grand prizes!  

Now what are those prizes?

1st Grand Prize: $40 Gift Certificate from your favorite eBookstore

2nd Grand Prize: $40 Gift Certificate from your favorite eBookstore

3rd Grand Prize: A Swag Pack that contains paperbacks, ebooks, bookmarks, cover flats, magnets, and more!

Any time from February 15th, 8:00 a.m. CT to February 18th midnight CT you can enter both individual blogger prizes and the Grand Prize by commenting on each blog. Be sure to give us an email address so we can contact you if you win.
Can't wait to hop with you!

Romance Is In The Air Blog Hop!

Update: We have WINNERS!

Are you humming that song? Love Is In The Air? If you haven't heard of it, then we must correct this oversight. To wit:

And as you know, love and romance go together, so romance is in the air, too (I did find a song with that title, if you're into Zelda).

To celebrate all these good, mushy feelings along with sponsors I Am A Reader Not A Writer and Rachel Anderson, it's time for a blog hop!  And what better prize than a romance novel...or in this case, novels, plural.

My Christian romance series Cascade Brides: Three Stories of Faith, Hope, and Charity will be the prize for three random commenters. 

The Three Sisters Mountains are part of the Cascade Mountain Range near the town of Sisters, Oregon. The peaks were named Faith, Hope, and Charity by early settlers. In the Cascade Brides series, three estranged siblings named for the mountains, each in the far-flung reaches of the state, are drawn back to their childhood home in Sisters by men who ultimately help the siblings realize the blessings of family bonds.

So leave your name and email addy below to be entered, and on 2/15 random.org will select the winners (winners will receive an email, and their names listed in the comments section of this post).

When you're done here, hop to the next blog for more chances to win!
