Book Giveaway: The Bone House

23 Oct

Kit is on a quest for the ultimate treasure. But are his travels in time changing history for better or worse?

When Kit Livingstone’s great grandfather appeared to him in a deserted alley during a London rainstorm, he revealed an incredible story: the ley lines throughout Britain are not merely the stuff of legend but are in fact pathways to other worlds. An intricate code–a map of bizarre symbols–is the roadmap they need to navigate the multi-layered universe. But the five pieces have gone missing. Braving constant danger, Kit accepts his place in the adventure–though he has no idea just how critical a role he’ll play.

 

To win a copy of Stephen Lawhead’s newest book in the Bright Empires series, just leave me a comment with your email address. Please Note:  your email address must be in the body of the comment.   The winner will be announced here no later than November 2.  Giveaway ends on 10/31/11.

He has received widespread critical acclaim, including three Christy Awards for excellence in fiction, and his books have sold more than six million copies in sixteen languages.

Book Giveaway — The Chair

19 Sep

I received an ARC and a completed copy of James L. Rubart’s newest novel, The Chair.  My good fortune is now yours too.  I am giving away the completed novel!  Just leave a comment including an email address.  The contest will run through September 29th.  (Please note:  no email address in body of comment = no chance to win.) 

When an elderly lady shows up in Corin Roscoe’s antiques store claiming to have a chair made by Jesus Christ, he laughs her off. But after she delivers an ancient looking chair made of olive wood three days later—with a cryptic message attached to it—he begins to wonder.

Corin’s world shatters as he searches for the truth about the artifact, and the unexplained phenomena that seems to come from it. And he’s not the only one who will do almost anything to possess the power that appears to surround the chair.

After Ray leaves to fly a combat mission at the peak of the air war over Europe, Helen takes a job in a dangerous munitions yard and confronts an even graver menace in her own home.

Giveaway — Over The Edge

16 Aug

I am giving away a copy of Brandilyn Collin’s book Over The Edge. To enter, just leave me a comment on this post with your email address included.  Also, tell me what your favorite genre is — suspense, historical, romance, etc.  The giveaway will run through August 31.  The winner will be chosen by Random Number Generator.  Good Luck!

Torn from the front lines of medical debate and the author’s own experience with Lyme Disease, Over the Edge is riveting fiction, full of twists and turns—and powerful truths about today’s medical field.

Janessa McNeil’s husband, Dr. Brock McNeil, a researcher and professor at Stanford University’s  Department of Medicine, specializes in tick-borne diseases—especially Lyme. For years he has insisted that Chronic Lyme Disease doesn’t exist. Even as patients across the country are getting sicker, the committee Brock chairs is about to announce its latest findings—which will further seal the door shut for Lyme treatment. 

One embittered man sets out to prove Dr. McNeil wrong by giving him a close-up view of the very disease he denies. The man infects Janessa with Lyme, then states his demand: convince her husband to publicly reverse his stand on Lyme—or their young daughter will be next.

But Janessa’s marriage is already rocky. She’s so sick she can hardly move or think. And her  husband denies she has Lyme at all.

Welcome to the Lyme wars, Janessa.
