But wait, it's not over yet. The Vanity category has become a blog tradition. It's where a book is actually judged by its cover and I choose my favourite cover art per genre and then draw from a pool of readers to requested that title. Here are my COVER LOVE winners!!

HISTORICAL 
COVER LOVE WINNER
(love the intricate steel work
that frames this cover and the cool
colour palette except for that
pop of..aqua?...in his jacket.
And an interesting choice to
have the hero looking off into
the distance, instead of the heroine, 
as is usually the case. 
And that grid work really
draws the eye, inviting me in.)

Hearts of Steel (The Blackstone Legacy, #3)
WON BY JACKIE SMITH

CONTEMPORARY 
COVER LOVE WINNER
(Pops of colour, the easel in
the midst of nature and that
beautiful blue sky...well, it
all just makes me happy!)

Where Faith Belongs (The Orchard House Bed and Breakfast Series, #6)
WON BY ELIZABETH LITTON

MYSTERY/SUSPENSE 
COVER LOVE WINNER
(Love the cool blue tones 
and the frost patterns 
etched across the cover.
Perfect for an Alaskan setting.)

Cold Light of Day (Missing in Alaska, #1)
WON BY LUCY REYNOLDS

AMISH 
COVER LOVE WINNER

62221427. sy475
WON BY RUBYNREBA

WAIT! Don't go away 'cause we're not through. We have another Reader's Choice tradition of picking a random number which becomes a 'just because giveaway' on the genre specific days. If that doesn't make sense, all you need to know is that it means more book giveaways. Woohoo! This time the number is: 46

HISTORICAL 46TH

The Sound of Light
WON BY KIM HANSEN

CONTEMPORARY 46TH

Dear Henry, Love Edith
WON BY BEAUTY IN THE BINDING


MYSTERY/SUSPENSE 46TH

Secrets of the Sonnets
WON BY TRIXI

That's another RC wrap up. I'll send winners an email stating their book win, publication date and requesting contact info so that I'll have everything ready for release day. Then I'll email you once again once the book has been ordered.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
AND 
HAPPY READING!
