Best Intentions by Emily Listfield – I won this in a giveaway from Dar at Peeking Between the Pages.

A Summer Affair by Elin Hilderbrand – I won this in a giveaway from Toni at A Circle of Books.

I also received a beautiful handmade, beaded journal from Iliana at Bookgirl’s Nightstand. You can see examples at her Etsy Shop – they’re stunning! Mine’s almost too pretty to write in. :)

  8. Hi all –
    When you do get the time to read my novel, Best Intentions, I’d love to know what you think. Having a conversation with my readers is so important to me – and a lot of fun.
    Best,
