They are awards given out by American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) in recognition of outstanding Christian fiction in the previous calendar year. So these 2022 finalists are books published in 2021. You might have read them already, you might not. I'll include links to reviews of the books I've read, but I have a lot of catching up to do so there will be gaps.
How does this giveaway work?
You select which of the Carol Award finalists 2022 -- Short Novel Category you would like to receive if your name is drawn. Mention the title in your comment (or an email if you're entering that way) and if you win, that's the book that will be sent to you. Easy Peasy. Here are the three finalists:
Three reasons to ask her to stay...
Will offering a helping hand open the door to forever?

If I were fortunate enough to be selected, I would love to read "Texas Baby Coverup" by Virginia Vaughn. That cover draws you in and the write up says "read me". But if truth be told, I'd love very much to read them all.
