British Brides Historical Romance Pre-Release Giveaway!

 

UPDATE! WE HAVE WINNERS!

Congrats to these winners for being randomly selected by Goodreads to win a copy of this fantabulous book. Watch your mailboxes, ladies!

Phillipa E. --GB

Katie F. --Burbank, CA

Naomi M. --Eden Prairie, MN

Simera H. -- Ontario

Vincenza W. --Ontario

Explore English gardens, London ballrooms, and Scottish castles as nine brides-to-be experience all the legendary drama and epic romance that British literature is known for. Each of the nine short stories will sweep you away to a different era of time spanning over 500 years of history in the British Isles. Penned by an exclusive selection of Christian fiction, this collection will become a cherished favorite for fans of faith-based romance.

To celebrate the March release of this wonderful British romance collection, I'm giving away 5 signed (by me) paperback copies. The book is even prettier in person--an embossed cover, 'rough cut' pages...but best of all NINE stories that will take you back in British history where love is timeless.

Click on the Goodreads link below to enter (you do need to have a Goodreads account but registration and membership is free). This contest is open to the US, Canada, Great Britain, and Australia. The drawing will be March 1st. Hope you win!
