Author Donna Crow & a New Kind of Giveaway!
My guest today is Author Donna Crow who writes delicious mysteries with delightful romance. She’s doing a giveaway but in a different way. Here’s Donna:
“Dr. Elizabeth Allerton is aware of her intellectual strength as head of the English department at Rocky Mountain College, but she has no idea how weak her spiritual and emotional life is until Dr. Richard Spenser joins her faculty.
In The Shadow of Reality, book 1 in the Elizabeth & Richard Mysteries Elizabeth insists Richard join her for a Dorothy L. Sayers style mystery week high in the Rockies. It’s all far more than Elizabeth had dreamed it would be until one of the actors turns up dead. Or is he only acting? Elizabeth must discover the narrow line between fantasy and reality before she falls prey to the vicious murderer lurking in the shadows
I hope I’m not giving too much away when I reveal that in book 2 A Midsummer Eve’s Nightmare Elizabeth and Richard are on their honeymoon. The Shakespeare Festival at Ashland, Oregon, has always been one of our very favorite getaway places for my husband and myself so it seemed a natural choice for my English professors cum detectives.
And it works out perfectly for them until they find that Desdemona’s brilliantly acted death scene wasn’t acted and Elizabeth’s costume designer sister and her actress roommate are terrified that they are slated to be the next victims.
Elizabeth’s inner resources are stretched to the limit as she struggles to deepen her marriage relationship while supporting and protecting her younger sister at the same time.”–Donna
“With an adroit hand at humor and sleek banter, Donna Crow combines a lighthearted romance with the dangerous world behind the curtain. Her characters Elizabeth and Richard share their Christian faith unobtrusively and with deft intelligence.” Christine Lindsay, Shadowed Silk
A Midsummer Eve’s Nightmare has “all the elements of a throat-gripping, sleep-robbing thriller, while still wooing the reader with the tenderness of sweet romance. . . this is a charming page-turner that will keep readers on edge to the very end.” Kathi Macias, Valeria’s Cross

Two points in Donna’s post caught my eye: “Dorothy L. Sayers style mystery” and “The Shakespeare Festival at Ashland, Oregon, has always been one of our very favorite getaway places for my husband and myself so it seemed a natural choice for my English professors cum detectives.”
Here’s my questions:
Have you ever read any of Dorothy L Sayers’ Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries?
Do you have any place that you love to visit over and over?
If you answer one or both of those questions, you will be entered into the drawing for A Midsummer Eve’s Nightmare. But it won’t be in print form. Donna is offering it in either pdf or will send a Smashwords coupon. A PDF is a book that you can read on your computer. Smashwords is a distributor of ebooks. You don’t need an ebook reader for the PDF. So when you leave a comment, let me know if you’d like the book in PDF or the coupon.–Lyn
