Today is release day! Woohoo!

To celebrate, author Dawn Crandall is giving away FIVE copies of her paperback release, The Bound Heart.

(You can enter the giveaway on Goodreads or her website.) Actually, that’s two different giveaways. TEN copies, people! How cool is that? :)

Just like The Hesitant Heiress, the first book in the Everstone Chronicles, The Bound Heart has been crazy successful as an ebook. Because of this, her publishing house is releasing her trilogy in paperback. Look for The Captive Imposter next month!

Probably the most heartbreaking story of the three, The Bound Heart follows Meredyth…wait. Why am I telling you about it? Here’s the back cover copy!

One accidental kiss from Lawry Hampton. That was all it took to throw Meredyth Summercourt’s world upside down. Determined to marry the ever-elusive Vance Everstone, she simply doesn’t have the time or desire to fall for her best friend Lawry Hampton. But with Vance out of the country, Lawry is at her side nearly every day, teaching her what the world is like through the eyes of a little orphan girl named Wynn. Now Meredyth can’t deny that what’s holding her to Vance is nothing more than a desire to redeem herself from her past. Will she marry Vance once he returns from Europe? Or will she be strong enough to break free from the tangled web she’s convinced she deserves, and accept that God’s plan for her life includes redemption…and, quite possibly, Lawry Hampton?

Such a lovely romance! And I love the redemptive thread woven throughout.

If you like gothic novels with sweet romance, you just might love this book as much as I did.

So, check out the paperback release on Amazon or any other online retailer, if you so desire.
