You Had Me at Goodbye by Tracey Bateman & US/Canadian Giveaway

Synopsis:~

ancy Ames had a plan for her future. A plan that did not involve Jack Quinn swooping in and stealing her dream job at Lane Publishing. Now jobless, Dancy must find a new career. A coffee barista? An English teacher? A literary agent? Hmm. Maybe she’ll write a novel, featuring a relentless, job-stealing, caffeine-addicted Brit who falls in love with a beautiful coffee barista.

Sneak peek at The Convenient Groom by Denise Hunter

I was incredibly moved by Denise Hunter’s Surrender Bay, the first in her Nantucket Love Story Series. Here is a preview of the second story, The Convenient Groom and I am really looking forward to it 🙂

Love the cover, too!

Each Romance For Good™ novel offers a story of hope and love that positively portrays the eternal impact of relationships.

Dr. Kate has it all-a radio talk show, a nationally-syndicated column, and a publisher who is paying for a lavish wedding to coincide with the release of her first book, Finding Mr. Right-For-You. But when her fiancé jilts her …

Sneak peek at Match Point by Erynn Mangum

I have laughed myself silly through Erynn’s first two books and can’t wait for the conclusion, Match Point, releasing in Autumn (Aust)/ Spring (USA) from NavPress.

Synopsis:~

Now that she’s successfully matched four couples, Lauren Holbrook is wondering if she’ll always be the bridesmaid and never the . . . or will she finally admit that she and Ryan are more than “good friends?” But handsome Keller Stone may try to convince her otherwise.

A riotous, romantic conclusion to Mangum’s caffeine-laced series!
