Welcome to Showcase Sunday, hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea. The aim of this event is to showcase our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed form the libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders this week. For more information about how this feature works and to join in, click here.
It was a rather slow week for buying books. I only had a little luck at Goodwill. I guess this was a good thing though since I am seriously behind on my reading. My bank account could also use a break!
Won:
Prize of My Heart by Lisa Norato Big thanks to FaithfulReader.com!!
Wife 22 by Melanie Gideon - Huge thanks to Luxury Reading!!!
Embrace by Jessica Shirvington - Huge thanks to Drey at Drey's Library!!!
This bundle of goodies came from the lovely Jane Porter. I won a "surprise" package on her blog and holy crap is it AWESOME! Not everything is shown here, but it included: a tote, a t-shirt, pens, a nail filer, swag, a candle, cooking spices, three signed (!) books (Not Fit for a King?, Royally Bedded and The Desert Sheikh's Defiant Queen), Post Its, a travel mug and a $15 gift card to Starbucks!!! Jane is absolutely amazing! You can check out her fun blog HERE.
For Review:
Thank you to the authors for providing me with review copies! I can't wait to sit down with each of these books, they all look fantastic!
What came for you this week? Leave me a link in the comments and I'll be sure to stop by and check it out!
Most of these titles are quite new to me but The Truth Teller's Lie sounds really interesting! I'm going to check that out. :)

DAMMMMN, I am jealous of that awesome Jane Porter swag! I read Not Fit For a King, and ADORED it to pieces...and I am not even a romance person.
ReplyDeleteAnd you have some fascinating books! (The Truth Teller's Lie by Sophie Hannah as me curious! *goes off to Amazon to read about it*)
Happy reading~,

Great Showcase! Most of those books I haven't heard of before. Though I too have Embrace, waiting for me to read it on my Nook. I'm a new email follower. I hope you'll drop by and see what I got this week.
