Surf’s Up Everyone!
Janelle Icon

No, this blog isn’t about me taking surfing lessons. :bigeyes: This weekend I received an unexpected package in the mail, and when I opened it up I found mass-market copies of my anthology SURF’S UP (other authors in anthology are MaryJanice Davidson & Nina Bangs)! This is a reprint of what was originally published in trade-size, and should be on bookstore shelves this week.

34149315

Some of you might have already read this anthology in its trade-size form. But I thought I’d go ahead and giveaway three mass-market sized copies of SURF’S UP today. :cheer:

All you have to do is post on today’s blog, then check back tomorrow to see if you’re the winner (winner will be posted at the end of Leslie’s blog). It’s that simple!

Janelle

JanelleJanelle Denison finds it hard to believe that it’s been nearly 25 years since she first started writing romance novels. At first, it was a way to pass idle time while her husband worked swing shift, but before long it became an obsession to get published. Luckily, she kept at it (it took her over 5 years to get that first book published!) and is now a Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble, and USA Today Bestselling author! Now, after selling over 45 plus novels, she finds that her Plotmonkey pals help to keep her stories fresh and unique, and she can’t imagine writing a story without their input. Janelle lives in Oregon with her husband, Don, along with two teenage daughters that keep life interesting.

    Wow! Hot cover! Congratulations, Janelle!

    I am headed up in the mountains for a three day intense immersion workshop taught by Margie Lawson. I’m not sure if the lodge where I’m staying will have internet access or not. I’m hoping it does but just in case you’ll know where I am if you don’t see me in the Jungle.

    Have a great day all. We had 4 inches of snow last night! Rain before it started snowing. :partygroup:

    Cher, so glad you guys are finally getting moisture! Fire season was going to be ugly without it. We had storms and rain last night. Glad I’m home finally. I love vacation, but I’m happy to sleep in my own bed! Janelle, love the cover! Not sure how I missed this anthology the first time around but I’ve added it to the TBN list!

    :rain: Have a great Monday!

    Janelle that book looks so hot I would love to have a copy of that. I will be down a few weeks , going to have surgery Monday not really looking forward to that but everyone says it will be so much better.
    I think it is the same surgery Julie had not to long ago. So wish me luck sounds like it will be a long recovery.

    I’d love the chance to read this one. I have enjoyed a couple of MaryJanice Davidson’s books in the past BUT I have not read anything by Nina Bangs yet. :praying:
