Book giveaway: The Bride Bargain by Kelly Eileen Hake!

And the winner of last week's giveaway: On a Someday by Roxanne Henke is Mimi!
Congratulations and thank you all for entering

And now, The Bride Bargain. Kelly the author is a friend of mine. I've done several book signings with her and she's an absolute doll and great fun to hang out with. She's probably the youngest writer I've ever met at age 24.
Here's a blurb about the book:

1815 Nebraska
A Resolute Woman
When dropped from the wagon train for not pulling their load, Clara Fields is desperate to provide for he newly-widowed aunt. Josiah Reed, owner of the Buttonwood Feed and Dry goods Store, makes Clara what seems a heaven-sent bargain: he'll sign over his 2-story house if she can marry his son off to a local girl in the next month...

And a Determined Doctor
Dr. Saul Reed agrees to watch his father's store while Josiah is away, thinking the slow pace of the prairie will be a welcome respite before Saul establishes his medical practice in Baltimore. But when he finds pretty Clara Fields installed in his father's house, the gleam in her green eyes promises anything but peace and quiet.

Find more than they bargained for
With his bachelorhood at stake, and her ability to provide for herself and her aunt hanging in the balance, Saul and Clara face off in an unlikely battle... Will God soften two stubborn hearts and strike a new bride bargain?

If you'd be interested in winning this book, just leave a comment with your email address.

And have a great weekend!
