Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all. I’ve been crazy busy promoting the latest release in my Woods Family Series, Surrounded by Secrets, but I’m taking a little time to join in the blog hop fun to help celebrate the release of Victoria Danann’s The Summoner’s Tale (Book 3 in the Order of the Black Swan). This hop has some major prizes available—ereaders, books, and gift cards, oh my!—so be sure to hop along for your chance to win.
Since it’s Valentine’s Day, let’s talk about memorable gifts we gals—and guys!!—got on this special day. I’m sure we’ve all had those years where we were shafted and sang along to Bon Jovi’s You Give Love a Bad Name. Great song, by the way, but I’m not digressing. I actually sang along to it on Valentine’s Day and for a very good reason. One year, my then-fiancé (now ex-husband) surprised me with tickets to see Bon Jovi live in concert on Valentine’s Day in another state. This was very special to me because seeing them live was on my bucket list. When I was eleven years old I’d begged my parent to let me go to their concert—it was the year Cinderella opened up for them for those of you who remember—and needless to say, my request was denied. I’m sure I threw a big tween fit at the time, but I have blocked the horrible specifics of that rejection from my mind. I did, however, call my mom from the stadium that Valentine’s night to tell her I was finally getting to see Bon Jovi live. She already knew, of course, but she did say she was glad to be finally vindicated from all those years ago. That man and I have since split ways, but I can’t fault him for making a very memorable Valentine’s Day for me.
Okay, I showed you mine, now you show me yours. Comment about a memorable Valentine’s Day and I’ll pick someone to win Book 2 in my Woods Family Series. Book 1, SURROUNDED BY WOODS, is free right now on Amazon, so go grab it! And don’t forget to hop along and visit everybody else who’s participating!
