2009 Box ‘O Books Holiday Give-Away
**UPDATED** December 11, 2009. Karen from the comment trail won the Box ‘O Books and a copy of my romantic comedy, HEAD OVER HEELS.
Congratulations, Karen, and thank you to everyone who entered!
~~~~~~~
I had so much fun with this give-away last year that I’m doing it again this year. I’m a little late, so if you enter I can’t guarantee you’ll receive the books before Christmas, but, depending where you live, you should receive them before the end of December. Got that? Ready? Go!
The holiday season is upon us—what better time to tame my TBR pile and give away a Box ‘O Books?
The books I’m giving away to one lucky winner are comprised of free copies I’ve received at writing conferences and haven’t found time to read, as well as books I’ve bought but have never found time to read, or books that I’ve accidentally bought two copies of (hey, it happens).
These are all new, never-read books. Not ARCs. Not used books. Brand new, never-read. Not by me or by anyone else.
Here’s what’s up for grabs:
Leanne Banks, Some Girls Do
Gemma Bruce, Who Wants to Be a Sex Goddess?
Rachel Gibson, Simply Irresistible
Shirley Jump, The Bride Wore Chocolate
Karen Kelley, Double-Dating the Dead
Cindy Kirk, When She Was Bad
Susan Mallery, Married for a Month
Christie Ridgway, First Comes Love
Gena Showalter, Catch a Mate
Kelley St. John, Flirting with Temptation
If you’ve read this far, I’m also including a copy of one of my romantic comedies, your choice of either BORROWING ALEX or HEAD OVER HEELS (please click the links to find out more about each book). If you already have copies of both (aren’t you sweet?), feel free to enter anyway, because you can always ask me to sign the extra copy to your mom, your best friend, or your guppy.
The Rules:
-
Contest is open from Saturday, December 5th to Thursday, December 10th. I’ll choose the winner’s name at random Thursday at midnight and contact the winner Friday morning, December 11th by email for your snail mail address, so I can ship the books. I’ll ship the books within 2 or 3 days of hearing from you.
-
Only one entry per person please.
-
I am very sorry, but because of the weight of the Box ‘O Books and because Canada Post doesn’t provide discounts for shipping books, I can only open the contest to residents of Canada and the contiguous United States. This means that if you live in Alaska, you can enter (seeing as Alaska borders the Yukon), but if you live in Hawaii, you can’t. I’m shipping the winner the books by ground, not airmail.
How to Enter:
-
Enter your name in the Comment trail, and please let me know if you would like a copy of HEAD OVER HEELS or BORROWING ALEX along with the Box ‘O Books. OR
-
Email me at cindy AT cindyprocter-king DOT com with BOX ‘O BOOKS in the Subject line, again please letting me know if you would like a copy of HEAD OVER HEELS or BORROWING ALEX included in your holiday surprise. OR
- Facebook friends can enter their name in the Comment trail of this note on my profile or by options 1 or 2, your preference. If a Facebooker wins, I’ll message you through Facebook. Oh, and in case you haven’t guessed, when you leave your Facebook comment, let me know if you’d like a copy of HEAD OVER HEELS or BORROWING ALEX along with the Box ‘O Books.
Go forth and enter! Tell your buddies, tell your chapters, tell your guppies.

I read the directions too fast and was just about to email you when I read them again and saw I can do it here. I already have HEAD OVER HEELS, and would love BORROWING ALEX. All the books sound wonderful. Please enter me.
