Good luck in the contest and thanks for your interest.<br /><br />LADYBUY, thank you SO much for reading the first two books in the series, and I hope you enjoy book 3. I'll warn you right now, though, it's a little bit more complicated than the other two due to the substories I included on each of the other couples. Complicated ... but fun ... I hope!<br /><br />ANGELA!!! Well, there's no time like the present to start reading this series, girl, so get busy. Hopefully we can help by sending you a signed copy of the first book if your name is drawn in this contest. Good luck!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34973391.post-79077145061680064132009-05-06T19:39:00.000+10:002009-05-06T19:39:00.000+10:00I haven't read any of the books; so can you please...I haven't read any of the books; so can you please put my name in the 1st books hat.

But I'm really hoping you both have read books 1 and 2 because this is one series that really needs to be read in order to get the most out of it. There are a number of HUGE surprises that would be ruined if you don't read A Passion Most Pure first, although Denied can be read as a stand-alone, but not recommended.<br /><br />REBORNBUTTERFLY -- Thanks for leaving a comment -- book 1 is a VERY good place to start in this family series.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />julieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34973391.post-80729894508175459192009-05-03T14:01:00.000+10:002009-05-03T14:01:00.000+10:00I would love a copy of A Passion Most Pure!

(NOT!:)) Gosh, I hope you like Denied as well, my friend, and no offense, but I'm hoping there may be a wee bit loss of sleep over it as well. So far the e-mails I've gotten from readers have indicated such, but then those are the die-hard romantics like myself that crave novels where the romance is king and God is on the throne!! :)<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34973391.post-65882631874531063102009-05-02T21:10:00.000+10:002009-05-02T21:10:00.000+10:00I have loved the first two books so much that I wa...I have loved the first two books so much that I was reading into the wee small hours instead of sleeping!!!I found them gripping and couldn't put them down.

WOW, thank you so much ...KIM, you sweetheart you!!! WOW, thank you so much for your incredible words -- what a blessing! And believe me, I wish I could give you the next three books right now, but alas, book 4 (or book 1 of the next series, Katie's story) is written, but won't be out until June 2010. Sigh. But I hope you will like it because my daughter-in-law said book 4 affected her even more than all the others, so who knows? Maybe I AM improving with age!! I can only hope ... :)<br /><br />LEY, oh, I think you will love book 2, or at least I hope you will. It was my favorite for a long time, but now it is tied with book 3. Of course, I love all my "babies" and each holds a special place in my heart, but book 2 just came so naturally to me (it only took me two months to write it and that was working part-time, while both of the other books took about eight months each). Anyway, Charity's story just came so easily and naturally for me, I guess because she is the most like one of my all-time favorite heroines -- Scarlett O'Hara!<br /><br />HOLY COW, ANNE, you are putting me in the same sentence with the likes of Liz Curtis Higgs and Francine Rivers???? Good-night, girl, I need to send you a book just out of plain gratitude!!! Thank you SO VERY MUCH for your kind words -- I am blessed!<br /><br />NISE!!! Your favorite book of 2008??? Dear Lord, you're right up there with Anne and Kim in giving me goose bumps! Thank you so much, and if you win this signed copy, you have to promise not to lent it out anymore, okay??? :)<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34973391.post-70813664249328489362009-05-02T15:51:00.000+10:002009-05-02T15:51:00.000+10:00No, MEZ, I'M the one who's blessed if you have bot...No, MEZ, I'M the one who's blessed if you have both of my other books!! Thank you SO very much for buying them (or someone buying them for you!). And, YES, the Roaring 20s was a really fun era to write these characters in AND gave me the license I needed to explore the "promiscuity" question of that era that I touch on in that book.<br /><br />Oh, SHERRINDA, girl, we have to get you this book, my friend! Please throw your hat in the ring for all the book giveaways I am doing by checking in regularly at my website calendar because I will be giving away about 15 or more books through interviews that are and will be listed there, okay?<br /><br />SHERRIE, thanks so much for dropping by AND for reading my books.
