It's that time again! I'm giving away Deb Raney's book, "A Vow to Cherish."John Brighton looked forward to growing old with Ellen, his wife of 30 years. Little did he know, he would face the biggest challenge of his life. A tragic diagnosis changes everything.
Deb Raney communicates John's struggles and anguish. She taps into the human heart with honesty and accuracy.

Wasn't this her first book? And it soared to bestsellardom? Sounds interesting and a little heart-wrenching.
Look forward to reading the book even if I don't win! :(

I've never read any of Deb's book, but I'd love to. I met Deb at an ACFW conference and I was struck by how sweet--sincerely sweet--she is. Thanks, Susan, for this great contest.

Hi Susan,
Just found your blog today (from "quietspirit") and I am so excited to find you. I love to read and will look forward to your recommendations!
Wondering if you ever do blog tours (for books from major publishers)?
Thanks for the suggestions,

Hi Diane -
Thanks for entering the contest. I post here Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. :)
Tissues would definitely be a good idea.
Blessings,
Susan
Hi Gail -
I'm glad you found me. Quiet Spirit is a good friend. I post here on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. :)
While I don't participate in formal blog tours, I do belong to the Thomas Nelson, Revell, and Tyndale Blog Networks. Occasionally, I'll request a book from them for review.
I try to read a wide variety of genres from romance to speculative fiction. Author interviews are also a favorite around here.
Feel free to explore older posts for book reviews. Welcome! We love readers around here.
Blessings,
Susan
Hi Jen -
A book isn't "happy" unless it's being read. :)

This sounds so sad. I bet it moves the soul. I'd love to be entered.

Hi Eileen -
While it moves the soul, it also reveals the stress and inner struggles of a caregiving mate. Thanks for stopping by and entering the contest. :)

Hi Jen -
Hey everyone - Jen has a contest with some nifty prizes. Hop over and check it out. Cindy also has a contest going.

This book makes me think of my friend whose husband has cancer. They have been using his illness as a way to witness to others, especially those they have met at the hospital. Plus, they have shown great faith in the Lord throughout his treatment.
Can't wait to meet you next week!
Blessings, Leslie
Hi Leslie -
Thanks for entering the contest. I'm glad you decided to attend the conference. Give me a call, so we can arrange to meet. :)
Blessings,

Susan, I came home from a visit with our son in Seattle to find your note! Thank you for letting me know about your drawing, and thank you so much for your kind words about my book. I really appreciate you passing it on to another reader through this drawing.
