My guest today author Shanna Hatfield shares about her tenacious niece, a new book and A PARTY & PRIZES!!! Here’s Shanna:

Amanda

“I’ve admired the tenacious spirit of my niece since she was a little girl. Amanda never let anything stand in the way of what she wanted to do and she’s worked incredibly hard to chase after her dreams.

Her adventures over the years took her all over the country. She worked on a racehorse farm in Kentucky, herded cattle on a ranch in Montana, and eventually returned home to Oregon where she trains horses. Perseverance and grit are two characteristics easily associated with her.

THE CHRISTMAS CALAMITY

That unwavering will to succeed reminds me of Alexandra Janowski, the heroine in my latest book, The Christmas Calamity, releasing tomorrow (Nov. 13) as the third installment in the Hardman Holidays series. Like Amanda, Alex is strong and determined to do what it takes to thrive and make a difference. On her way to California, Alex’s wagon breaks down so she temporarily fills the role of schoolteacher in the town of Hardman, Oregon, while the blacksmith makes repairs. A prestidigitator by trade, she is a master at creating illusions and guarding her heart.”
Preorders are available now for The Christmas Calamity for just $1.99 on Kindle. Reserve your copy here: http://amzn.com/B00OGOO994
In addition, the first book in the Hardman Holidays series, The Christmas Bargain, is available for free downloads Nov. 13! Click here.

Justin Cowboy Crisis Fund®
