Midsummer's Eve Giveaway Hop

Welcome to the Midsummer's Eve Giveaway Hop!




This is my first blog hop and I am very excited to be participating! Thanks to I Am A Reader, Not A Writer for hosting it. 

Over 200 blogs are participating in this hop. I am stop #183. Tentatively. Yay! The linky for all the blogs are at the bottom of the post. The hop runs from Tuesday, June 21st thru Friday, June 24th. 

I have 4 great giveaways for you today. There will be 4 winners. Giveaway is open to US/Can only. As I get more comfortable with blog hops, I will open future ones to international followers.
Prize #1: 
An e-book (Kindle or Nook) copy of The Rake and the Recluse: An Illustrated Romance by Jenn LeBlanc.
I am in love with this book so I would like to share it with you. =) Read my review here.
Francine Larrabee woke up on the wrong side of the century. She was fairly certain she went to sleep in her own comfy bed, but she doesn’t quite seem to be there now. Only adding to her problems is that she has no voice, is constantly being glowered at by a large, stunning man who is obsessed with propriety, and she is apparently betrothed to another horrid little man, determined to ruin her, and any other girls that get in his way.
How does she find herself in the past, when she couldn’t even find herself in her present? How does a self sufficient businesswoman survive in a time when women were still considered property for the whole of their lives and what is she going to do with this man who draws her to him so fiercely.


Prize #2: 
A paperback copy of How to Marry A Duke by Vicky Dreiling
Just in time for the release of her 2nd book, How to Seduce A Scoundrel. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's Jane Austen's Emma meets The Bachelor, only wayyy better.

Tristan, the Duke of Shelbourne is a man with a mission: find a wife he can tolerate as long as they both shall live. No love is necessary—nor desired. But how to choose amid a dizzying array of wealthy-yet-witless candidates? Hire London’s infamously prim and proper matchmaker. Then pretend she’s not the most captivating woman he’s ever met . . .
Helping a devilish Duke create a contest to pick his perfect mate is the kind of challenge Tessa Mansfield relishes. Her methods may be scandalous, but she’s determined to find the notorious bachelor more than a wife—she’ll bring him true love. Yet when Tessa watches the women vie for the Duke’s affections, she longs to win his heart herself. And after a stolen kiss confirms Tristan’s desire, Tessa knows she has broken a matchmaker’s number one rule: never fall in love with the groom.

Prize #3:
A paperback copy of Seducing the Duchess by Ashley March
I love stories about second chances, don't you? This is Ashley's debut book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. 
It was just another scandalous night…Gambling. Carousing. Flirting. Charlotte, Duchess of Rutherford, will do anything to create a scandal large enough to force her husband to finally petition for a divorce. Once madly in love with Philip, she is now determined to escape from their less than civil marriage and the reminders of his betrayal.
Until he stole her away…Philip Burgess, Duke of Rutherford, is not a man to tolerate regrets. He wed Charlotte for revenge, not for love or convenience, knowing she would come to hate him. But he never expected he would one day find himself craving her attention or desiring her company….
And gave her something more…Philip is no longer the cold, deceitful man she married years ago. And when he promises Charlotte a divorce if she will help him become a better husband for another woman, she wonders if she truly wants to lose him—and if Philip may still possess her heart after all...

Prize #4:
An paperback copy of Vampire Mine by Kerrelyn Sparks
This is the 10th book of the Love at Stake series. I've been on a paranormal kick lately and thought I'd share a book from my new favorite series.
Nothing on earth can make this vampire fall in love…
After 499 years of existence, Connor Buchanan has arrived at an inescapable conclusion: he is a cold-hearted SOB.  He’s been watching his friends—those poor romantic fools—plummet off the cliff into love like a dazed herd of sheep.  But not Connor.  He knows that love leads to nothing by heartache.
Until Marielle…
She is an angel cast down from heaven for disobedience.  Trapped in mortal form, she finds a protector in Connor, a Scottish vampire haunted by a dark past.  Marielle hopes to heal his broken heart and earn her way back home, but suddenly she has these…feelings.  This strange yet pleasant physical yearning—for a vampire!  Is this the work of a demon luring her into hell, or has this angel found heavenly bliss?
***I will also be sending some sweet swag along with the books to each winner. Winner of the eBook giveaway will have the option of also receiving swag.***
