Hey, y’all! Welcome to the Grateful for Books Blog Hop! It’s the last Candlelight Reads blog hop of the year, and I have some goodies for y’all! First, let’s go into what this blog hop is actually about: being grateful for books.

It’s that time of year where we’re all thankful for something, and I have many things to be thankful for. I have a great family, great friends, a fantastic church, and a great publishing family. I’m very thankful for everyone in my life. I’m thankful for all that God has given me; I’m simply grateful.

But, let me tell you why I’m grateful for books. Books have always been an escape for me. They’ve been a way to keep my mind occupied when I needed a distraction. They’ve transported me to new words. They’ve given me a chance to crush on guys who didn’t exist. Books are AMAZING. And I particularly enjoy WRITING these books so I can do the same for someone else. My goal is to always help others first, and I feel like my books can do that for someone else.

So tell me, what makes YOU grateful for books? What book(s) has impacted your life the most? Sound off in the comments, and I will choose a random winner for my swag pack giveaway Tuesday morning!

The winner will receive an autographed Entertaining Angels poster, a magnet, a “She believed she could, so she did” necklace,  a key chain, and bookmark. Leave your email address in the comments. US residents only. An international winner will receive their choice of ebook from my books.

Books That Make Your Heart Flutter Blog Hop

CLRAug

Welcome to the Books That Make Your Heart Flutter Hop by Candlelight Reads! Our theme this time around is: What are some of the books that make your heart go pitter-patter when you read them?

This is a tough question for me to answer because there are so many! Whenever I read the Bloodline series or The Selection Series, they always make my heart do a little pitter-patter, but there are so many others! I just *love* books. A well-written book can always make my heart flutter! What’s the one – or few – books that make your heart go pitter patter?

**GIVEAWAY ENDED**

You could win a paperback copy of my Entertaining Angels books, a bookmark,  (US only) and digital copy of the short story, Before We Say I Do! (International winners will receive all digital books!)
