Shannon here: I’m so excited!!!!! For a few years now, I’ve been teaching writing classes and telling my students about my as yet unpublished critique partner who’s a better writer than I am. Thankfully, I can’t say that anymore. Because Brenda is now published. I’m featuring her right here May 19 – 23. But until then, her book released this week. I hope you’ll rush to buy a copy. I can’t wait to reread it in book form. Comment on this post through May 31st to enter the drawing for a copy and learn about a special drawing at the end of this post. Here’s a preview:
They forgave him for the accident that killed their son, but he will never forgive himself.
Manhattan businessman Richard Brooks was at the top of the world, drunk with
Success … Wealth … Women …
Until one disastrous evening, when his world came crashing down.
Richard flees to Minneapolis where he repairs ancient boilers instead of solving corporate problems, and he’s determined to live the solitary life he now deserves …
Chained to his guilt. Blending in with the gray. No luxuries in sight.
But Executive Sheila Peterson has other plans for the handsome custodian. Richard appears to be the perfect match for the no-strings-attached romance she’s after, but she soon discovers that he’s hiding more than the designer suits in his closet.
About Brenda: Brenda Anderson writes gritty, life-affirming fiction that offers hope and reminds the reader they’re not alone. Her debut novel, Chain of Mercy, comes out in April 2014.
She is a member of the American Christian Fiction Writers, and is currently President of the ACFW Minnesota chapter, MN-NICE.
When not reading or writing, she enjoys music, theater, roller coasters, and baseball (Go Twins!), and she loves watching movies with her family. She resides in the Minneapolis, Minnesota area with her husband of 26 years, their three children, and one sassy cat.
Brenda’s having a giveaway on her blog including a copy of Chain of Mercy, a container of Lindt Lindor truffles, and the Matthew West CD, Into the Light : http://brendaandersonbooks.com/2014/04/22/chain-of-mercy-officially-releases/
