Giving away 3 signed copies of Barefoot Summer!

I just got a few advanced copies of my June 4 release in the mail. I'm SO tickled to see the beautiful cover in my hands!

The purpose of advanced copies is to get a little buzz going, so that's where I need your help.

How can you help spread the word about Barefoot Summer? Can you write online reviews? Blog about the story? Recommend it to your book club? Tweet and FB about it? Be creative!

HOW TO ENTER:

1. Leave a message telling me how you'd use a free copy of Barefoot Summer to spread the word.

2. Leave your email address.

That's it! I'll email the winners on Wednesday (Feb 20).




Barefoot Summer: 


             In the years since her twin brother’s drowning, Madison McKinley has struggled to put it behind her. Despite the support of her close-knit family and her gratifying job as a veterinarian in their riverside town, the loss still haunts her. To find closure, Madison sets out to fulfill her brother’s dream of winning the town’s annual regatta. But first she has to learn to sail, and fast.  
              Beckett O’Reilly knows Madison is out of his league, but someone neglected to tell his heart. Now she needs his help—and he’ll give it, because he owes her far more than she’ll ever know.  
 
Madison will do anything—even work with the infamous Beckett O’Reilly—to reach her goal. And as much as she’d like to deny it, the chemistry between them is electrifying. As summer wanes, her feelings for him begin to grow and a fledgling faith takes root in her heart. 
                      But Beckett harbors a secret—one that will test the limits of their love and the depth of Madison’s faith. Can their new romance survive summer’s challenges? And will achieving her brother’s dream give Madison the peace she desperately seeks?

I have a Tumblr blog which has a lot of followers who are readers. So I'll post a review on there. I'll also tell all my friends and post it on my Facebook page. And also on my Twitter.

I look forward to reading the rest of the book :)

I could talk about it on Facebook and Twitter. I could "like" it on Amazon and leave reviews on Amazon and Barnes and Noble!! And if you have bookmarks for it, I could pass them out to local bookstores and friends.

I've read and reviewed quite a few of your books in the past, as you're one of my favorite authors. I know that I can count on a consistent and encouraging story from you.

I regularly post my reviews on my blog, as well as Amazon.com. I also have accounts with B&N, Goodreads, Christianbook.com that I can post the review to as well. I always promote my books and reviews on Facebook, through my pastor's wives network and through the Book Club network.

I've always had a passion for reading and your books are one of the many reasons why. :)

Hi Denise -

I coordinate the ladies book club at my church (membership of 60 plus) and introduce a new author of Christian fiction to the group each month. Having not read your work, I would be reviewing your book as a possible monthly selection for us to read. If chosen, it is posted on FB, our Book Club Network page, emailed to the group and linked on our church website. We have a large/active club. I try to plan meetings around the theme of the book and envision a "Barefoot Summer" picnic.

I love to read, but am running out of room to store my books, so after I read a good book, I then donate it to my church library. That way I can tell all the other ladies in my church about it and let them read it. Some will buy their own instead of waiting to borrow it!

I love your books and am excited about this one!!! I don't do FB nor do I have a blog. However, I promise to post a review on Amazon, tell friends about your book, and give the book to my local library. The librarians are very good about placing books in a "new books" place and urging readers to read them!
Thanks for the giveaway.

I'd let friends read my copy and brag about it on fb. I'd put that I'm reading it on goodreads and would write a review. 'Barefoot Summer', would also be posted on my pinterest as 'Books I read in 2013'. 'The Trouble With Cowboys', is already on there as the first book I read this year!

Well, I do not have a blog, but I do have Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and great word of mouth. I would start by writing a review on Amazon and then linking it to all of my social media sites, including a post on your page, and my church's page.

Word of mouth is also a great feature. I love Christian Romance novels, and yours are on the top of my list always. Telling my friends about your books is an added bonus.

Thanks so much for the opportunity and either way, I look forward to the chance to read this book!

I would look forward to reading this book, because I will definitely have a lot of resting time when our new baby boy arrives in less than 8 weeks.
