With the Christmas holidays underway I hope you and your families are having a wonderful time. Christmas is also a great time to get new books so I want to tell you about a book that releases this month I think you’ll like.
Author Jane Green’s 16th novel, SAVING GRACE, will be released by St. Martin’s on Dec. 30th. To celebrate this release (thanks to the lovely Meg at Tandem Literary), I have a copy of this intriguing book to giveaway. In addition, the author has a special pre-order promotion. But first, here’s a brief description of the book.
Hardcover: 352 pages
Publisher: St. Martin's Press (December 30, 2014)
ISBN-13: 978-1250047335
Grace and Ted Chapman are widely regarded as the perfect literary power couple. Ted is a successful novelist and Grace, his wife of twenty years, is beautiful, stylish, carefree, and a wonderful homemaker. But what no one sees, what is churning under the surface, is Ted’s rages. His mood swings. And the precarious house of cards that their lifestyle is built upon.
When Ted’s longtime assistant and mainstay leaves, the house of cards begins to crumble and Grace, with dark secrets in her past, is most vulnerable. She finds herself in need of help but with no one to turn to…until the perfect new assistant shows up out of the blue.
To the rescue comes Beth, a competent young woman who can handle Ted and has the calm efficiency to weather the storms that threaten to engulf the Chapman household. Soon, though, it’s clear to Grace that Beth might be too good to be true. This new interloper might be the biggest threat of all, one that could cost Grace her marriage, her reputation, and even her sanity. With everything at stake and no one to confide in, Grace must find a way to save herself before it is too late.
Powerful and riveting, Jane's SAVING GRACE will have you on the edge of your seat as you follow Grace on her harrowing journey to rock bottom and back.

I’m delighted today to share with you that author Jane Green’s TEMPTING FATE, a New York Times bestseller in hardcover this spring, was recently released in paperback.
To celebrate this event, thanks to the author and Meg at Tandem Literary, I have a copy of the book and two sets of custom TEMPTING FATE wine charms. The winner will receive a book plus eight charms (four charms per set). Each set includes a purse, a shoe, sunglasses, and a goblet. Please see the end of the post for more details.
Here’s a brief synopsis of TEMPTING FATE:
When Gabby first met Elliott she knew he was the man for her. In twenty years of marriage she has never doubted her love for him—even when he refused to give her the one thing she still wants most of all. But now their two daughters are growing up Gabby feels that time and her youth are slipping away. For the first time in her life she is restless. And then she meets Matt…
Intoxicated by the way this young, handsome and successful man makes her feel, Gabby is momentarily blind to what she stands to lose on this dangerous path. And in one reckless moment she destroys all that she holds dear.
Consumed by regret, Gabby does everything she can to repair the home she has broken. But are some betrayals too great to forgive?
Here’s what others are saying about the book:
“A scarlet letter for the 21st Century.’ – Kirkus
“Green once more proves her skill at exploring the complexities of the human heart.” – Library Journal, starred review
“Green takes things in interesting directions as she deftly explores the aftermath of Gabby’s rash, impulsive decision, making her latest a captivating cautionary tale.” – Booklist
“Green skillfully depicts a woman trapped between contentment and temptation, crafting an insightful look into married life …” – Publisher’s Weekly
