Releases Today! 
"Barefoot Summer" released last week, and I couldn't be more excited! I've anticipated this release for so long--it's the first in a new series, and I'm swooning over the cover. In celebration, I'm giving away 2 signed books!

Leave a message, including your email address, and I'll draw 2 random winners! 

Here's a blurb of the book:

Madison’s heart has been closed for years. But one summer can change everything.

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, 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?
Available at Amazon, CBD, Barnes & Noble, and bookstores everywhere.

My grandmother gave me The Convenient Groom as a "i thought you'd like to read this" gift in my freshmen year of college. I have been hooked ever since. I'm now a Senior in college. Over the three years I have collected ALL of your books. I'll take a pic of my bookshelf one day to show you. I can't wait to add this series to my collection. :)

Right now there are 66 comments. That means with 2 books to give away, I now have a 1 in 33 chance of winning one. But who knows, my math never was very good and that might really be a -0- chance to win one. But here goes. Put me in the winner's circle.

I would love to win a copy! I read an excerpt online that was included in a review someone wrote on Amazon. It happened to be from pages 235-236...

"Sometimes we have to find the courage to take off our shoes and feel it all. Even the bad stuff." [see also the continued dialogue]

Even in that small excerpt I was touched because I recently lost my brother to a chronic illness that he (& we as a family) battled with all of his life, and he was just 32 years old when he passed. But through Christ we endure. I'm so very blessed to say that all of my family and I know Jesus personally, and that brought us the strength and comfort we needed during that time and always. :)

Well, with all that being said, my feet are bare at the moment :) and I am feeling it all so that Jesus may love even more fully through me.

I just thought I'd share so you knew that even those few words meant something to one of your readers. :)

Whether I win the giveaway or not, I look forward to reading your book. God bless! :)

Sincerely,
Ashley
