SWEET REVENGE Release Day Party (Part Five)

Hey All! Hope you've enjoyed the SWEET REVENGE release day party as much as I have. It's my sincerest hope that when you get the chance to read SWEET REVENGE, you fall in love with Dylan and Jamie, too.

Now, for the final prize. Due to its size, it will have to be sent media mail, so I'm limiting the winner to US residents only.

The prize includes:

$25 Barnes and Noble or Amazon gift card (winners choice)
A box of books, hard back and paperback, including several from NYT bestselling authors
Two Last Chance Rescue books of your choice

Here's the quiz:

SWEET REVENGE is here!!!

Happy Release Day to Dylan and Jamie! I can't tell you how excited I am about SWEET REVENGE. Writing this book was a labor of love for me. No characters have intrigued me, frustrated me and enthralled me as much as these two. I hope you enjoy their adventures and that SWEET REVENGE becomes one of your favorite LCR books.

I'll be having giveaways every other hour until 6:00 PM (CST). (10:00, 12:00, 2:00, 4:00, 6:00) That's 5 chances for you to win--one win per person.

To get this party started, we're going to do a fun, fast, easy quiz. The first person who comments with the correct answer wins a signed copy of SWEET REVENGE and a $25 gift card to either Amazon or Barnes and Noble. (winner's choice)

So here's your quiz:

Name Jamie's sister

Ready. Set. Post!

Recommend Monday and SWEET Giveaway Day Twenty-seven!

Good Monday All!

Hope you had a good weekend. Did you do anything fabulously fun or read anything so fantastic that you can't wait to share the news? If so, this is the place to be and we want to hear from you!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by yesterday and shared their favorite season. And congrats to Shelly E. for winning a signed copy of SWEET REVENGE. Shelly, email me at christy@christyreece.com with your mailing info and I'll get the book out to you soon.

Hard to believe that SWEET REVENGE is almost here! Tomorrow is the official release day but since I stopped by several BAM stores yesterday and signed the stock, I know it's already out there. If you happen to see it on the bookshelf and have the chance, snap a photo for me and send it to me. I'll post it on my Facebook page. And btw, if you're not on my Facebook page, I'd love for you to come over. I post excerpts, book news, covers and chats there. Here's the link:

I'm gearing up for an exciting and busy week. I'll be here all day tomorrow for the SWEET REVENGE release day party. Lots of prizes, fun quizzes and a little LCR trivia. Be sure to come by for the celebration! Tomorrow night, I'm doing a call in for a book club and we'll be discussing SWEET JUSTICE and all the LCR books. Really looking forward to chatting with this group.

On Thursday, I'm over at two places. First, Marie Force's Romance and Oreo book club chose SWEET JUSTICE as their book this week. (Thank you, Marie and Crystal!) I'll be chatting about Seth and Honor and the oh so evil Alden Pike. I'll also be giving away a couple of signed copies of SWEET JUSTICE. Here's the link: http://mariesullivanforce.blogspot.com/

Also on Thursday, I'll be chatting at the Romance at Random website about unsinkable heroines, which is how I viewed Jamie Kendrick in SWEET REVENGE. Hope you can come by and chat! Here's that link:

Additionally, one of my favorite authors and people, Joyce Lamb, will be on this blog on Thursday, chatting about her writing, plus she's giving away a couple of her fantastic books. You don't want to miss this!

Since this is Recommend Monday, along with the last day of the SWEET giveaways, it seems only right that I'm giving a SWEET recommendation that I got from Recommend Monday. Thanks to Anne for recommending it and then Mary G for reinforcing it, I downloaded and finally read The Sweet Gum Tree by Katharine Allred. All I can say is Oh. My. Gosh. I can't believe it took me so long to read such a fabulous book. So many things in this wonderful story resonated with me. Ms. Allred describes southern living perfectly--the family dynamics, the small town mentality and the absolute joy of living in the south were all there. But what I really loved were the characters. Alix and Nick were written so realistically. You know when a book makes you cry on one page, laugh on the next page, want to shout at a character on the next page and then want to hug that same character on the next page, you have got a great book. I highly recommend this book but will warn you of two things. It is told in first person which is not my favorite kind of read but I got so caught up in the book, that it bothered me for all of one sentence and then I was lost in the story. Second, you need to schedule time to read this book. Not because it's long but because once you start reading it, you won't want to put it down. It is that good! And to make this book even more enticing, if you have a Kindle, the book is on sale for $1.49. What a SWEET deal! Here's the link at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/The-Sweet-Gum-Tree-ebook/dp/B003370K3Y/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1317656040&sr=1-1

And with that SWEET recommendation, I'm going to give away a very SWEET prize. A signed copy of any LCR book and that also includes SWEET REWARD. (Beware that I won't have copies of SWEET REWARD until late November, but if you win, you'll get the first copy). For a chance to win, all you have to do is give a book recommendation. I'll announce the winner tomorrow before we get started on the SWEET REVENGE release day party.

Have a marvelous Monday, everyone. I hope you'll leave a recommendation today and then come back tomorrow for some SWEET release day fun!

SWEET Giveaway Day Twenty-Six

Happy Sunday All!

I hope you're having a fabulous day and weekend. Mine has been busy but very nice. Thanks so much for all the comments the last two days on your favorite books when you were a kid. Brought back some great memories!

Congrats to Patty for winning a signed copy of SWEET JUSTICE and Ronlyn for winning a signed copy of SWEET REVENGE! Patty and Ronlyn, please send your mailing address to christy@christyreece.com and I'll get your book out to you soon.

This week will be a busy one for me. I'll be on a couple of blogs, I'm doing a call-in book club meeting and let's see, seems like I'm forgetting something,. Oh yeah, SWEET REVENGE is coming Tuesday! (As if I could forget Dylan and Jamie!) I actually just stopped on the way back from church and signed several copies at the Books-A-Million, so even though they're not out yet, they are in stores so be on the lookout!

I'll announce the specifics of all the activities this week on tomorrow's blog but I did want to call attention to one event that's going on now and will end some time today. SWEET JUSTICE received a great review from Long and Short Reviews and is now up for Book of the Week at the site. If you've got a couple of seconds to click onto to the site and vote for SWEET JUSTICE, that would be so SWEET! Here's the link:

Since I'm late with this blog and we're running short on time, I'm going to make this quick and SWEET. For a signed copy of SWEET REVENGE, what is your favorite season of the year? I'll collect comments and announce the winner on tomorrow's blog.

Have a SWEET Sunday All!
