Thank you for the giveaway opportunity.
Wishing you happy holidays! :)
I`ve read all your selections and they are awesome! Good luck, Melody.
DeleteContemporary isn't something I read a lot of, so I had to wait to see what others suggest.
ReplyDeleteMy first pick would be:
The Rancher's Texas Match by Brenda Minton
Can`t go wrong with Love Inspired. Good luck, Trixi.
DeleteI have read Jessica Keller's installment of Lone Star Cowboy League:Boy's Ranch and really want the entire series now! I believe Brenda is the start of it (I hope).
DeleteSecond choice:
ReplyDeleteClose to You by Kara Isaac
Choice three:
ReplyDeleteLike Never Before by Melissa Tagg
teamob4 (at) gmail (dot) com
I love Kara Isaac and Melissa Tagg. I read Close to You and loved it and now I think Kara Isaac has a second one out with a Narnia bend to it. Must check that out. Good luck, Trixi.
DeleteYes, Can't Help Falling. I've read/reviewed it, it wasn't something that stuck out to me. But it has rave reviews so don't let that deter you. Most readers loved it. I guess I'm more of a Hobbit fan than Narnia, so the first one would probably hold more appeal to me. Hope you get to read it soon Kav!
DeleteI'm a Narnia girl all the way!
DeleteThen I believe you will enjoy it very much :-) Happy reading!

Wild Montana Skies by Susan May Warren
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fun giveaway opportunity, Kav!
dianalflowers(at)aol(dot)com
This is a MUST read in my opinion Diana! She will hook you with this new series, the next one is out in January called "Rescue Me". I believe she's planning on a six-book series!
DeleteOh -- I didn't know the new Montana Skies book would be out so soon. Woot!
DeleteI'm not laughing, Diana, I'm rolling my eyes. Good luck.
Hmmm...for the first time ever you have me bumfuzzled, Kav. Trying to figure out the eye roll remark. Hope the lightbulb doesn't go off in my brain at 3 o'clock in the morning. lol
DeleteThx, Trixi! Loving this book talk! I think I have the eye roll figured out, Kav, but I haven't read Red Door Inn yet. It's on my Kindle and am going to get to it ASAP. :) Then comes Where Two Hearts Meets.
DeleteI am discovering several new books from reading the comments. I don't read quite as much contemporary as historical fiction, but it was interesting to browse around some publisher websites plus bookstores and get ideas. Thanks for offering the fun opportunity to learn and participate. dixiedobie at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteWhat Matters Most by Kellie Coates Gilbert
I'm with you CC, I read way more historical or suspense than I do contemporary!
DeleteKellie is a wonderful author and I think you'd like What Matters Most...I read/reviewed/enjoyed it quite a bit! You should check out her other novels as well. There's some quality writing right there :-)
The Dog That Whispered by Jim Kraus
ReplyDeletedixiedobie at yahoo dot com
Her One and Only by Becky Wade

ReplyDeletemindyhoungATmsnDOTcom
Oh, I'm glad you reminded me about Unblemished. I was all set to order it and then my internet cut out and when I went back to the order everything had been wiped so I added the books again and put the order through but just now realized I forgot Unblemished!!!! I'm really excited about that book. Good luck, Mindy.

The Feathered Bone - Julie Cantrell
ReplyDeletepattymh2000(at)yahoo(dot)com
Great choices, Patty. Good luck.
DeleteMy first choice is "Four Winds" by Lisa T. Bergren. It's a time-travel book, so I assume that's okay for this category?
ReplyDeleteElly -Indiana-

My Second choice is "Home on the Range" by Ruth Logan Herne.

ReplyDeleteElly -Indiana-

I have a book on hold at the library by Lisa Bergren...might be part of this series? Aslong as some of it happens in current time period I think it counts. Good luck, Elly.
DeleteI've not yet read "Four Winds", so I'm not sure whether any of it happens during the present, but part of the first book ("Three Wishes") does. Since I'm not sure, if you'd prefer, I can change my choice to "Three Wishes". I know it also came out this year.

Nice mix there, Melanie. Good luck.
DeleteI have many contemporaries on my tbr, b/c unlike many here, I read way more contemporaries. Yet, I tend to purchase those ones first. :) My first choice here is: Can't Help Falling by Kara Isaac. tlhcoupon(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of Katherine Reay and Dear Mr. Knightly is still one of my all-time favorite books, so my next choice is: A Portrait of Emily Price by Mrs. Reay. tlhcoupon(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteBecause of your fab review and I also have the first book, my last choice is Another Day, Another Dali by Sandra Orchard. tlhcoupon(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteSandra Orchard's mystery series is just so clever and fun. And love the play on words in the titles. I like Katherine Reay's books as well...Daddy Long Legs is still one of my favourite kids books so I loved Dear Mr. Knightley too. Good luck, Terrill.
DeleteI had only ever seen the movie Daddy Long Legs. You and another friend mentioned how much you loved the book so I went and purchased a copy for myself. It has the most delicious cover, so I couldn't resist. Here's a link to the cover on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0141331119/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
DeleteOh, I like that cover! I might have to get a copy. The book I have is a library discard and it's old and yellowed and not very happy looking. But well read. :-)
DeleteMy first pick will be The Wedding Shop by Rachel Hauck, Kav. Just read her Christmas one and really enjoyed it.
