Waiting on Wednesday: To Win Her Heart by Karen Witemeyer


Jill over @ Breaking the Spine hosts a weekly meme that features one book that you can't wait to be released! Be sure to visit Jill's site to see what she and other readers can't wait to get their hands on.


I loved Karen Witemeyer's A Tailor-Made Bride and when I saw the cover for her May 2011 release, To Win Her Heart I knew I HAD to have it! It quite possibly has the potential to be my favorite cover AND book of 2011! With so many great books releasing next year I'm not going to be doing anything but reading!


To Win Her Heart by Karen Witemeyer


From the publisher:
Having completed his sentence for the unintentional crime that derailed his youthful plans for fame and fortune, Levi Grant looks to start over in the town of Spencer, Texas. Spencer needs a blacksmith, a trade he learned at his father's knee, and he needs a place where no one knows his past. But small towns leave little room for secrets....

Eden Spencer has sworn off men, choosing instead to devote her time to the lending library she runs. When a mountain-sized stranger walks through her door and asks to borrow a book, she steels herself against the attraction he provokes. His halting speech and hesitant manner leave her doubting his intelligence. Yet as the mysteries of the town's new blacksmith unfold, Eden discovers hidden depths in him that tempt her heart.

Levi's renewed commitment to his faith leads Eden to believe she's finally found a man of honor and integrity, a man worthy of her love. But when the truth about his prodigal past comes to light, can this tarnished hero find a way to win back the librarian's affections?


Available now for preorder, releases May 2011!

    I was so worried that we wouldn't be able to find a sufficiently muscled model to represent Levi on the cover, but Charlene, my project manager, did a great job finding one that fit the bill. It must have been torture to wade through all those model photos to find just the right one. But she made the heroic sacrifice, and I could be more pleased with the result. :-)

    Hehe Juju I've been waiting to share this cover.

    @ Karen- Wow I really feel for Charlene, I hope they gave her a raise. It couldn't have been an easy task for her. *Cough cough*

    Don't the covers seem to be getting better and better? I love Karen's writing! I really need to get on it and keep reading. I have Head in the Clouds here to read, but have to finish Wrangler in Petticoats first and get on to some Christmas reads! Ack!
