Giveaway: The Castaways by Elin Hilderbrand

Just in time for summer reading!


Hachette Book Group has done it again! They have made three copies available for giveaway to three of my lucky readers.  This is Hilderbrand's latest story, set in New England, on a beach, with some romance, some mystery, and a great all around story.  

Publisher's blurb: Greg and Tess MacAvoy are one of four prominent Nantucket couples who count each other as best friends. As pillars of their close-knit community, the MacAvoys, Kapenashes, Drakes, and Wheelers are important to their friends and neighbors, and especially to each other. But just before the beginning of another idyllic summer, Greg and Tess are killed when their boat capsizes during an anniversary sail. As the warm weather approaches and the island mourns their loss, nothing can prepare the MacAvoy's closest friends for what will be revealed.

Once again, Hilderbrand masterfully weaves an intense tale of love and loyalty set against the backdrop of endless summer island life.
 I can't wait to get my review copy.  Enter below to win your copy.  Here's the rules:

    Right now I'm reading The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters. After that my next few will probably be Chef by Jaspreet Singh, The House On Oyster Creek by Heidi Jon Schmidt, Little Bird Of Heaven by Joyce Carol Oates, and Last Night In Twisted River by John Irving. I'm always finding another one I want to add to the list though!

    I'm planning to read Kathleen E. Woodiwiss's The Flame and the Flower, just to see what a really old-style bodice-ripper is like. :)
