Congratulations to Linda H. who has won Mae Nunn’s A Season for Family and Cynde who has won Jody Hedlund’s The Preacher’s Bride.

This week I’m hosting Mary Connealy with Wrangler in Petticoats and Candace Calvert with Code Triage. If you want to enter the drawings, please leave a comment on one of the post during the week with your email address. I will not enter you without an email address (my way to contact you if you win). If you don’t want to leave an email address, another way you can enter is to email me at margaretdaley@gmail.com. The drawings end Sunday (November 14th) evening.

Bio for Mary Connealy:

Mary Connealy, writes romantic comedies with cowboys. Wrangler in Petticoats, Book #2 of the Sophie’s Daughters series, is in bookstores now. Book #3 Sharpshooter in Petticoats is coming in January 2011. In November a large volume containing all three books in the Lassoed in Texas series will be released, so if you’ve missed the background stories behind Sophie’s Daughters, this is your chance to catch up. Mary is a Carol Award winner for Long Historical Romance book of the year for Cowboy Christmas, and a Christy Award finalist for Calico Canyon. Mary lives on a Nebraska ranch with her husband and has four beautiful grown daughters, two son in laws and one tiny magnificent granddaughter.

About Wrangler in Petticoats:

Sally McCellen finds herself injured and in the care of the biggest wimp she’s ever met. Logan McKenzie paints pictures of the wild west—and claims he makes a living doing it. When the two of them see an elk she reaches for her rifle, he reaches for a sketch pad. The word DRAW means completely different things to them. When Sally falls off a cliff practically into his arms, he decides he’s keeping her. So far her broken leg is keeping her close, but she’s a quick healer and she needs to get some tougher help, because outlaws are hunting hard for the one witness to their crime.


Bio for Candace Calvert:

Candace Calvert is a former ER nurse who believes love, laughter and faith are the best medicines. Her Mercy Hospital series offers readers a chance to “scrub in” on the exciting world of emergency medicine—along with a soul-soothing prescription for hope. Wife, mother, and very proud grandmother, she makes her home in northern California.

Blurb for Code Triage:

Dr. Leigh Stathos likes her ER shifts fast, furious and adrenaline-infused, “Treat ‘em and street ‘em” with no emotional complications. Life’s taught her a soul-rending lesson: nothing lasts forever, including marriage. The clock is ticking toward the end of hers. Then an unwelcome confrontation with “the other woman” begins a whole new set of lessons.

San Francisco police officer Nick Stathos never gives up, whether protecting his patrol neighborhood, holding fast to faith—or trying to save his marriage. Seven days is all he has to reach Leigh’s heart. But when a desperate act of violence slams Golden Gate Mercy Hospital into lockdown, it starts a chain of events that will change lives forever.

  29. Mary Connealy and Candace Calvert – two of my favorite authors. I love Mary's humor! Her characters are lovable and people you would want to know (if they were real). STRONG TEXAS WOMEN!

    The intensity of the hospital setting and the 'humanness' of the characters draw me to Candace's books every time. And I do love the hunky guys on the cover.

    With books like these to read it's no wonder I don't get much writing done.
