A Christmas Eve Giveaway! Guilt Trip by Laura Childs

Happy Christmas Eve!  YAY!!!  I have a super fun giveaway for you today!

Laura Childs is one of my absolute FAVORITE authors!  She writes a wonderful Tea Shop series, a fun culinary series, and, my personal favorite, a series of scrapbook shop mysteries!  I was recently sent a copy of her latest title, Guilt Trip, and I was NOT dissapointed!  


The main character, Carmela Bertrand, is caught in the midst of yet another scandelous murder investigation!  She quickly finds her self doing her own research whilst running her scrapbook shop, Memory Mine, all the while.  The characters are expressive, relatable, and totally fun!  I consider them friends.  LOL!  The story moves quickly and is easy to read with lots of fun twists along the way.  This is truly a pleasure to read.  Go make yourself a cup of tea, sit down and enjoy!!!

Here is a bit about the author: Laura Childs is the author of the New York Times bestselling Tea
Shop Mysteries, Cackleberry Club Mysteries, and Scrapbooking Mysteries series. She’s
been making scrapbooks, cards, memory boxes and collaged cigar box purses for 15 
years and describes her creative style as varying from conservative to funky. She’s also 
a believer that “the more layers the better” in her projects.

Yup.  She sounds pretty darned fabulous if you ask me!  :)  We could totally hang out.

I have a signed copy of Gilt Trip to give away to one lucky Just Jingle reader!  To enter, please check out the form below!
