If this isn't the time of year for romance I don't know when is. Often times as romance authors or readers we are considered to have fanciful, unrealistic ideas about romance and love in general. And sadly some people have those issues.
On the other hand some readers of romance simply enjoy it for what it is...a good book...a good story. A happily ever after for now or a guy gets his girl or vice versa.
I am of the latter.
However, I also have fanciful ideas that's my relatioship with my husband can be deeply intimate and very fanciful indeed. Nevertheless, that requires work and a willingness to try on both parts. Which brings me to the choice of my prizes.
The best book I could have ever read for my marriage was And They Were Not Ashamed:Strengthening Marriage through Sexual Fulfillment. As a religious woman it can be hard to find books that are respectful yet useful and honest. Boy was this one my Godsent. I've included the cover art and blurb below.
Finally! a book about physical intimacy and marital ONEness that is comprehensive, in-depth and frank, yet respectfully reverent—written to address the unique perspective and concerns of women, while shining a light into the mysteries of the female heart and mind. And They Were Not Ashamed--Strengthening Marriage through Sexual Fulfillment, by Laura M. Brotherson, is the ultimate how-to handbook—power-packed with hope and help for creating a mutually fulfilling intimate relationship.
As three books in one, this "marriage book," "sex book" and "parenting book":
* Shines light and truth on the intimate marital relationship, restoring sex to its proper position as ordained of God
* Effectively addresses, with self-help solutions, the emotional, spiritual and physical intimacy issues that plague so many marriages
* Provides principles and practices to help parents teach and better prepare their children for intimacy and lasting fulfillment in marriage.

And finally there is just that time where you want an escape. A way to engage your mind so that it is unable to think about the to do lists, the financial problems, the burdens of your job, the stress of family and friends, feelings of guilt and inadequately we as humans in general are prone to without provocation.
Which is why I love ready and writing as well. Below are a couple of my books that are part of the prizes.
Product Description
Maeve da Paer has lived her life free from the restrictions of the
world of sorcery and the Board of Witchery hidden behind the combined
protection of her grandparents powerful clan magic—and a lie. Although
her life has not been worry free, it is when all that desperation and
grief cause her to cast her most powerful spell ever…a spell that will
end the pain before it begins on the powerful All Hallows Eve.
Fionn
Hughes, an immortal tracker, former heir to a powerful clan of time
warlocks is on a mission to restore his honor—instead he finds Maeve da
Paer. Following the scent of Gardenias and Honey Suckle, he discovers
the last Scent Witch. It’s only after she almost takes off his ear that
something more stirs, eventually changing his mission from one of duty
to one of need.
What will Fionn do when he finds out Maeve plans to cancel out her own existence? Will he be strong enough to stop her?
Product Description
Lucien Lemione the clan leader of the feared and revered Eternals is
faced with the ultimate betrayal. His second in command for two
centuries has not only created the most grievous of offenses but also
commissioned the creation of liquid silver. When poisoned by this toxin,
an immortal suffers a fate much worse than death, frozen in an internal
prison. After being wounded when found spying, he hides deep within the
eerie woods that encircle the Triad Mountains. Desperate and in pain,
he prays to an offended mother goddess for help. Her answer: a woman,
but not just any woman. A witch.
After losing her entire coven
at the hands of the Eternals, Aisleen is the last of her kind. She
retreats from the world to Trinity Forest where she is giving the
opportunity of a lifetime, or perhaps a test of principles. It’s there
she discovers the man she heals is the Eternal that wiped out her
people. Although she is bound as a healer, she could be creative in her
revenge. Aisleen knows who and what Lucien his…but does not speak of it.
There can be no future with Lucien for she can only be with a mortal
man. Even if she wanted to be with him, can she forgive the man that
caused the genocide of her people?
Lucien must act quickly for
the survival of his clan is at stake. However, Aisleen’s ethereal beauty
and emerald eyes keep pushing those thoughts far from his mind.
Determined to find out what secret she hides, he prolongs his time with
her. When his people need him most what will he choose…duty, desire, or
will he make his own fate?
To be perfectly clear...I will pick 10 winners who will receive an eBook copy of one of these three books. All they have to do is follow the blog and leave a comment with their email. That's it.
Don't forget to keep hopping for my prizes and great blogs.
