I am so thrilled to start off my blog celebration by having Love Inspired author, Janet Dean as my first guest! She is one of the nicest authors I have "met" during my year of blogging and I know you will think so too! Just drop her a line by email and you'll see! ;-)
My Review of The Substitute Bride
Here's Janet!!!!!
I’m thrilled to be a part of your blogaversary celebration, Renee!!! Even if black and gold aren’t my favorite team’s colors, I feel right at home. You and I share the love of reading and history and God. Thanks for this exciting opportunity to connect with your readers and chat about my February release, The Substitute Bride , Steeple Hill Love Inspired Historical.
The Substitute Bride was a fun story to write—with a mail-order bride, disgruntled groom and a small town filled with quirky characters. Here’s a peek:
They Struck a Bargain for Marriage Fleeing an arranged marriage, debutante Elizabeth Manning exchanges places with a mai
To Have and to Hold is very captivating. I absolutely love the cover for The Dark Enquiry by Deanna Raybourn. I posted about it last night: http://muse-in-the-fog.blogspot.com/2011/02/upcoming-release.html
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy the super bowl! I am rooting for the Steelers :)
That last one must be a debut author, I haven't heard of her before, but the cover is fab! Love Jody's too, just beautiful!! I LOVE it when you post these Renee, wherever do you find them??
ReplyDeleteWow. To Have and To Hold is so gorgeous :D
ReplyDeleteLol...I was planning on writing the exact same thing Juju wrote. :)
ReplyDeleteHehehe I know To Have and To Hold was my fave that's why it's at the top :-)
ReplyDeleteCasey, I've been looking around on different sites but have to admit that I saw someone mention a cover on Twitter so I went to CBD to find them all LOL!
XOXO~ Renee
GO STEELERS!
Beautiful covers. I'm partial to The Doctor's Lady. Why? Jody's my critique partner, and I've been privileged to read two versions of the manuscript. Readers are gonna love this story. =)
ReplyDeleteThere's something about To Have and To Hold that is just gorgeous. That said I really want to read The Doctor's Lady.
ReplyDeleteThought of you tonight when I saw Steelers ballons at Kroger. ;)
oh my gosh, the first cover-i am in love!! you know i'm a sucker for romance :) thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely covers, works of art.
ReplyDeleteHi Renee,
ReplyDeleteYou're so sweet for posting my newest cover! I think it's hot off the "press." As a matter of fact my publisher only sent it to me a couple of weeks ago for my first view! And thank you for being excited to read it! I'm finishing up some last edits on it and hoping to get it polished up! I hope you and everyone else will like it! :-)
Thanks for posting these covers, Renee! To Have and To Hold reminds me of a scene from Amy's courtship in Little Women or some movie like that. I envy bloggers like you who've been in this for so long that you'll be sent some of these great books to review. I'm still low level on many lists as far as books to review is concerned. Sigh . . . I'm really looking forward to Jody Hedlund's book! What a lovely cover! . . . Now I've got to go look up Anne Mateer . . .
ReplyDeleteThey are all so beautiful! I've seen Tamera Alexander's newest cover and it's gorgeous also.
ReplyDeleteWow I guess everyone is as excited as I am about these covers! They're awesome huh?
ReplyDeleteKeli- I saw on your site somewhere or on Jody's site that you were critique partners! That's so cool! Lucky you getting to read The Doctor's Lady early LOL! I LOVE marriage of convenience stories so I know I'll love it!
Michelle- It's a Steelers Nation LOL!
Carrie- To Have and To Hold is definitely one of the most romantic Christian fiction covers I've seen in a while! I'll bet the romance is just as good!
Suko- I agree, works of art for sure!
Jody- I am SUPER excited for The Doctor's Lady! It's torture for me to have to wait so long to read it! Can't wait!
Renee Ann- I *wish* I were signed up to review these but unfortunately I'm not! Have you signed up for the Bethany House review program? the button is on my sidebar! Maybe they will offer some of these titles to review!
Joy- I saw that cover! The girl's dress is AWESOME! I love the jewel tones!
XOXO~ Renee
GO STEELERS!
