Our theme is the classic Christmas song, Santa Baby, popularized by Eartha Kitt. Each author has a line from the song and each reader that finds the lyric will get an added entry in the grand prize.
Here is how it works. You get an entry for the following things:
Following the author on social media or on their blog.
You get an entry for buying one of the author’s books.
And you also get an entry if you can find the lyric of the Santa Baby Song in each author’s blog.
You can do as much or as little as you want.
Then you will email Carey Abbott at (careydoucet@yahoo.com)
Just list each author and what you did at each blog.
I am delighted to be one of the authors in the new Exquisite Quills A Holiday Anthology, Vol. 2. This is a diverse, FREE collection of stories to warm your heart while you wait for the kids, for the oven to buzz, on a 15-minute break from work, or when you just need to hide for ten minutes from everyone! Every story is PG, but a few have a hint of zing.
Blurb: The calendar on the wall says 2014 but the holidays are a magical time where anything is possible when it comes to romance. Prepare to travel through snow or to a tropical setting with a little dash of fantasy sprinkled in to make your holiday reading enjoyable. This heart-warming collection of all new, very short stories is our way of saying happy holidays to you.
My story, A Kiss and a Promise, takes place at Yule and is a prequel to How To Woo… a Reluctant Bride. You get a glimpse of Lydia and her brother Harry when they were young and carefree. The story also introduces two sisters, Sophia and Cora, who will have their own stories in the “How To Woo” series. The scene is a Victorian sleighing party with an excursion to collect holly and mistletoe to decorate the house.
Sophia, the heroine of my story, is from an aristocratic family, and she is a lady. So she would never make demands like these…
Santa baby, I’m filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your ‘X’ on the line…
Sophia might, however, wish for a kiss from a handsome young man under the mistletoe.
