\"scavengerAnother fun scavenger hunt<\/h2>\n

and lots of new Christmas books to investigate.<\/h2>\n

Merry Christmas! Welcome to the Christmas Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt! START MONDAY DEC 5TH~<\/h4>\n

Here\u2019s how it works: At each author\u2019s blog post, you will find a question that can be answered by checking out the free Amazon preview of their book. Provide the answer at this form.<\/em><\/p>\n

Note: You must answer the questions for every author in the round -robin to be considered <\/strong><\/h4>\n

to win the $200 first place, <\/strong><\/h4>\n

$100 second place <\/strong><\/h4>\n

or $75 third place Amazon gift cards.<\/strong>These prizes are USD values.<\/h4>\n

If you are not a U.S. resident, you will get a gift card from the Amazon store for your country; however, it will be valued at these USD amounts.)<\/p>\n

At the end of my post is a link to the next blog, who will provide a link to the next blog, etc., to the very end, creating a circle (a round-robin) visit through all of the authors\u2019 blogs. I think that sounds like FUN! And I think the generous prizes are worth trying for!<\/p>\n

Now here’s the scoop about my Christmas story Mavis’s Forever Christmas.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Mavis's<\/p>\n

Is falling in love only for the young?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Never married, Mavis, a retired college librarian, has made a new life for herself near her \u201cadopted\u201d niece Ellie. Over a year ago, John lost his wife, who was Mavis’s best friend for nearly forty years. He has spent the intervening time traveling with his trailer. When Ellie faces complications of a difficult pregnancy, John and Mavis pull together to help her and her family. But new feelings and attraction come unexpectedly, surprising them both. Is falling in love a betrayal of a wife or best friend?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I had a lot of fun writing this book with a stray dog and puppies and a family pulling together in a stressful time. Aren’t those the times that pull us together as much as the happy times?<\/p>\n

The question you need to discover by going to Amazon and <\/strong>clicking this link<\/strong> t<\/a>o my book. There just above the cover, it wil say LOOK INSIDE.<\/strong> Click those words and the book will open. (This doesn’t cost anything) Begin reading until you find out: WHO IS KERRY ANN? That’s the answer you need to find. (See below for Look Inside.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When you have the answer, FILL OUT THIS FORM<\/strong> <\/a>and head on to the next blog!<\/p>\n

Thank you so much for visiting! The next author on the tour is my friend Winnie Griggs, who is telling us all about her Christmas book His Christmas Matchmaker<\/em>. You can find it at this link<\/a>. Remember that the round-robin will end on December 11th at 11:59 PM EST!<\/strong>\u00a0I hope you have fun with this and win!–Lyn<\/p>\n
