I’m SO excited that my author page recently hit over 500 followers! AND Count Me In just hit 100 reviews on Amazon! You guys! That just brings me joy. In addition, If She Dares, the novella previously released in the Once Upon a Laugh collection, has been released on its own as both an ebook and a paperback!
And in all my giddiness, I thought a giveaway would be a fun thing to have happen. SO BEHOLD! I present to you the Emerald City Giveaway!
Included in this prize for one lucky reader is:
- A signed paperback of Count Me In
- A signed paperback of If She Dares
- A small moleskin Seattle Map notebook
- A “Faith Over Fear” silver cuff bracelet
- A Seattle skyline rain globe
- A Count Me In mug
- An If She Dares mug
- A $10 Starbucks giftcard (because all things Seattle!, not pictured)
Thank you, dear readers, for your support, encouragement, and PATIENCE as I continue to write (albeit slowly) the next story in the Emerald City Romance series. I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know.
I wrote this first series as an ode to my old (nearby) stomping grounds, Seattle. I love Seattle and all its beauty (both God-made and manmade), uniqueness, and presence. You have to visit one day, if you haven’t already! And while you’re there, you need to visit Vancouver because it’s just as unique as Seattle, despite how close they are to one another.

And stay tuned for more Emerald City Romances later this year!

My favorite city to visit? Hmm . . . Truthfully, I’m not much of a city person. I’m a small town/country girl and I’m okay with that. But if I had to choose . . . Maybe Washington D.C. We have family there, so there’s visiting them, and I enjoy the history and touring the museums and monuments. 🙂
