tags: ,

standing-still2

Today, I’m thrilled to be hosting a giveaway for an autographed copy of Standing Still by Kelly Simmons.   I haven’t read this book, but Booking Mama has and she “found it to be a very intense read” that she couldn’t put down.   You can see her full review here.  Devourer of Books said it “was extremely well done for a debut novel.”  Her full review is here.

To enter,  simply leave a comment on this post.  Contest is open to US and Canadian residents only (no PO Boxes, please).  I will use random.org to determine the winner.  Contest ends at midnight EST, Saturday, March 7, 2009.  Winners will be announced on Sunday, March 8, 2009.

Head on over to Bookroom Reviews to check out all of this week’s giveaway.
