Giveaway; Win a Signed copy of Crystal Cove and Godiva Chocolate


Lisa Kleypas hosted a contest for her Divas (aka street team)  where the winner won a signed copy of Crystal Cove. The task was to use four or more of her book titles to create a reasonably comprehensible, meaningful sentence. If you know me, I'm always up for a challenge, and creating sentences out of book titles is something I excel at (even if they usually end up being run on sentences. lol). Here are the two I came up with. The one that is more of a rhyme is the one that, I believe, took the cake, er, book.:

Entry #1:

'It Happened One Autumn' as a 'Smooth Talking Stranger' tried to 'Tempt Me at Twilight', 'Seduce Me at Sunrise', and I found myself 'Married by Morning' to a 'Blue-Eyed Devil'. *giggle*

Entry #2:
"Forever My Love" I've been "Dreaming of You" 
and that "Because You're Mine" "Somewhere I'll Find You" 
and "Where Dreams Begin" you'll "Give Me Tonight" 
and we'll discover "The Secrets of a Summer Night" 
"Where Passion Leads" us to pleasurable heights

About the Book:
Crystal Cove

ONE WOMAN WHO HAS BEEN CURSED NEVER TO FIND LOVE . . .

ONE MAN WITHOUT A SOUL WHO WANTS HER MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF . . .

THEY MEET IN A SMALL ISLAND TOWN IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST, WHERE MAGIC IS IN THE AIR AND FATE IS A FORCE TOO POWERFUL TO DEFY. . . .

In New York Times bestselling author Lisa Kleypas's Crystal Cove, Justine Hoffman has made a comfortable life for herself on the island of Friday Harbor. She is the proprietor of a successful boutique hotel, and she has the safe, predictable life she has always wanted. Growing up with her flighty, nomadic mother, Marigold, has instilled in her a deep longing for stability. But in spite of everything Justine has achieved, there is still something missing. Love. And after years of waiting and dreaming, she is willing to do whatever it takes to change her destiny.

What Justine soon discovers is that someone cast a spell on her when she was born, with the result that she will never find her soul mate. Determined to change her fate, Justine finds a way to break the enchantment, never dreaming of the dangerous complications that will follow.

And when Justine meets the mysterious Jason Black, she accidentally unleashes a storm of desire and danger that threaten everything she holds dear . . . because Jason has secrets of his own, and he wants more from her than fate will ever allow. (Description found on Goodreads)
