Today is all about another of my big life loves: books!
In the spirit of coming together for the holidays, eight popular Chick Lit authors (okay, 7 popular authors and then me...) are
"partying it up" with a shared promotion for book lovers! That means
eight fun e-books, each priced at $3.99 or less, that are
packed with plenty of laughs and romance to keep you entertained on
those long winter nights! And if you'd like to gift one of these books
to a Chick Lit fan, we've got you covered with your choice of
paperbacks!
Which books are featured in this festive promo? I'm glad you asked that question!
Finding Lucas by Samantha Stroh Bailey - Daytime talk show producer Jamie Ross is beyond fed up with her toxic bad boy turned metrosexual boyfriend. Spurred on by her gang of quirky friends,
she goes on a hilarious, at-times disastrous, and totally life-changing
hunt to track down the "one who got away." But are some loves best left
behind? E-book and paperback available on Amazon.
In Need of Therapy by Tracie Banister - Handling the problems of hysterical hypochondriacs, lovelorn neurotics, and compulsive man whores is all in a day's work for super-shrink Pilar Alvarez. But can she deal with her crazy Cuban family, a trio of unsuitable suitors, and a threat to her practice without ending up on the couch herself? E-book available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble; paperback available on Amazon.
What the Dog Ate by Jackie Bouchard - Discovering
what her dog ate turns Maggie Baxter’s world upside down. With her
chocolate Lab, Kona, as her guide, can Maggie forego her overly
analytical ways to find a new life filled with tail-wagging joy? E-book available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iTunes; paperback available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
The Girl, the Gold Tooth, & Everything by Francine LaSala - Suburban
housewife Mina, beaten-down and struggling with amnesia, starts getting
her memory and her mojo back. But she soon learns everything has a
price in this fast-paced, richly layered, and darkly humorous satire! E-book and paperback available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Breaking the Rules by Cat Lavoie - When
Roxy Rule shares a passionate kiss with her lifelong best friend, she
must come to terms with her feelings for him while dealing with two
sisters in full crisis mode, a boss who makes her want to stab herself
with a letter opener and a fiancé who can't wait to walk down the aisle.
Can she keep it together--or will she break under the pressure? E-book available on Amazon, Kobo, and Barnes & Noble; paperback available on Amazon.
Fashioning a Romance by Libby Mercer - Devastatingly
handsome and deliciously weird, John Harrington is the man of Caitlyn
Taylor's dreams… and her nightmares. She has no use for a womanizer like
him, and dodges his advances like a pro. But when they end up in Paris
together, Caitlyn feels her resolve begin to slip. How will she ever be
able to resist the irresistible in the most romantic city in the world? E-book available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo.
A State of Jane by Meredith Schorr - Jane
Frank is newly single after nine years and looking for a second chance
at love. But when she dives head first into the NYC dating scene and

tomorrow, it may be time for Jane to turn the tables! E-book available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iTunes; paperback available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Picture Perfect by Lucie Simone - Lauren
Tate's perfectly planned life quickly unravels at the seams when a
smear campaign threatens her career as a top TV executive, but she

in Tinsel Town turns deadly and the Hollywood hunk who's stolen her
heart goes missing. E-book available on Amazon; paperback available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Upcoming Holiday Posts
Finally, we hope you'll "tune in" for our upcoming series "8 Holiday Questions for 8 Chick Lit Authors." Each of us will take a turn at answering a set of holiday-related questions. (To bring this back around to the pups, I might have Kona and Rita help me answer some of them...). I'll post a reminder about that when we start on December 3.
Thanks for your support. Remember that books make great gifts - treat your friends and treat yourself! If you're going away for the holidays, now's a good time to fill up that e-reader for the long flight. (Or for hiding in the bedroom with at your in-law's house!)
And... because I can't get through a blog post without a cute dog pic: I saw Rita kissing Santa Claus.
I haven't really felt into the holidays yet, but I must say this post is making feel like I'm ready for the holiday madness to begin!

This is such a fun promotion and I cannot wait to read your book! :)
ReplyDeleteNot a chick lit fan, but I've been looking for a fun read. Got yours for the Kindle now. Thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteI didn't think I was a chick lit fan, but the story lines in these books look great..Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks, ladies. Chick lit isn't just shoes and shopping anymore! :) Think "romantic comedy" or just fun stories for women. I like to call my book "humorous women's fiction"... But that's not very catchy!
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea! I'm going to have to check out your book! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, I know how much my Mum enjoyed your book, so it's great to have a list of others she'll enjoy :)
And as for Rita, you could have just sent him a letter, or are you after something really special this year? Tee Hee
Wags to all,
Your pal Snoopy :)
