Last week I took time off with my family for a “staycation.” Best. Decision. Ever. We spent the week drinking hot chocolate, ice skating (never doing that again), watching movies in our pajamas, and basically just getting the chance to spend time together in a way that our busy schedules don’t usually allow.
It’s been a great start to the holiday season, and to celebrate, I’m giving away an ARC (advance reviewer copy) of Seeing Cinderella, and, since I love my cover so much, a pair of funky socks!
The Contest: To enter the contest, pick a number in between 1-225 (the number of pages in Seeing Cinderella) and leave it in a comment below. I’ll reply with a line from that page of the book and enter you in the contest. Comments will be open until midnight 12/4 PST and I’ll announce the winner on 12/5. International entries are welcome.
(The page number inspiration came from the wonderful Sarah Prineas, thanks Sarah!)
Also, if you’re not sick of me yet, Vicky at Books, Biscuits, & Tea reviewed Seeing Cinderella a couple weeks ago. You can check it out here.
Good luck!

Hey Patricia-Thanks for stopping by. I love Vicky, and her blog. I keep clicking back onto it to watch her digital snow (it’s only kind I’m going to get in California!) We’ll see, one day I would like to write another story with Dr. Ingram in it. All right…Page 81: “Did you ever join any of those clubs?”
