SURPRISE! Kav's Choice Giveaway

GIVEAWAY
Since you guys have been such troopers doing all the legwork to help fill up my wishlist I thought I'd share a few (insert eye rolls here...couldn't stop at just a few) new releases I found that I'm pretty sure (not absolutely positive -- it was a whirlwind week after all) weren't mentioned on previous days. By the way -- I started with 5 titles on my wishlist and now I have 65 (and counting) great reads to look forward to!!! THANK YOU!!!!

The giveaway is easy -- take a gander at the books below (I included links so you can check out the book blurb if you want) and choose up to TWO of the titles mentioned in this blog post. Leave a comment naming the title and you have a chance at winning it. 
REALLY IMPORTANT: One title per comment please. So if you want to enter two of the books, you need to make two separate comments -- one for each book.

 Please note -- some will be ebook giveaways only. I've noted that underneath the image. 

Draw will be held and winner announced on Sunday August 20 2017. Offer open to International Readers. Good luck!

    1. Both of those were a surprise to me. Small presses that don't do a lot of promoting, I guess. Good luck, Tammi.

  7. Magnolia Storms by Janet Ferguson! Been reading some of her books lately and love them.
    Kav, you are just full of surprises....THANKS for today's surprise and all the week's fun.

  8. I love suprises! And books! The two just go together perfectly! Thanks for the recommendations Kav!
    I love Christmas stories and this one looks good. I didn't realize Gilead fiction was up and running again, but I'm glad to see it. And a new author to try out, bonus.

    Christmas at Grey Sage

    Once an Heiress

    1. Gilead certainly doesn't make it easy to find their books. I discovered this one on their Facebook page and stumbled upon Barbara Cameron's when I started checking for books by authors I hadn't read it awhile. It was definitely a hit and miss kind of thing but I really want to support them and other smaller presses since so many Christian publishers are scaling down on their fiction. Good luck, Tracey.

    Magnolia Storms sounds like a good read. She's a new author to me.

  19. What fun surprises! After reading all the comments - I had the same experience, previously, trying to look up an upcoming book on Gilead. I would like to enter the book by Renee Ryan, Once An Heiress.
    I have previously read one book by her and enjoyed it. Thanks: dixiedobie at yahoo dot com

    1. You gotta wonder at how hard they make it to find their books! Not hard to throw up a blog or website or something and post new releases on it. I enjoy Renee Ryan as well and this is a definite must read for me too. Good luck, CC.

  20. My second choice is a real toss-up between Angie and Renee! But since I have already enjoyed a few "My Heart Belongs" books, I'm going with:
