Win a copy of Yours To Keep!

I think it’s time to give away a copy of Yours To Keep, don’t you? (Even if you don’t, I’m doing it anyway because I’m contrary that way.) It releases two weeks from Monday, and I have ePub and PDF author copies.

First…the back cover copy:

Sean Kowalski no sooner leaves the army than he’s recruited by Emma Shaw to be her fake fiancé. Emma needs to produce a husband-to-be for her grandmother’s upcoming visit, and, though Sean doesn’t like the deception, he could use the landscaping job Emma’s offering while he decides what to do with his civilian life. And, despite his attraction to Emma, there’s no chance he’ll fall for a woman with deep roots in a town he’s not planning to call home.

Emma’s not interested in a real relationship either; not with a man whose idea of home is wherever he drops his duffel bag. No matter how amazing his “pretend” kisses are…

Goodreads link | Kindle preorder link

How do you enter? Emma’s a landscaper so, here in the comments, tell me your favorite flower or plant. Tomorrow, probably around noon eastern, one random commenter will win a copy of Yours To Keep!

    Um, my favorite plants are fake. That means that a) my cat won’t eat them an puke them up somewhere I am guaranteed to step on them and b), I won’t kill them. I have a black thumb :)

    I do however love the smell of lilacs.

    I love the rose that is featured in Bed of Roses, the Sterling Silver. My other favorite rose is the English Alba rose, also know as the Romeo and Juliet rose, featured in an episode of the TV show Bones.

    I love tiger lilies. I don’t know what it is about them but I’ve liked them for a long time. They just look so different from some of the flowers people are used to seeing like roses, sunflowers and orchids.

    I absolutely adore aubergine coloured Calla Lilies. There’s something so nice about them, they are simple in their beauty and I love the fact that they are so deep a purple that they almost look black. I had a hand tied bouquet for my wedding. I’m feeling a little sentimental with my 6th wedding anniversary in a few weeks!

    I do love soldiers… this is one I will be adding to my “to buy”list :)

    I know you said one, but I have 3 favorites and can’t pick just one of them. They are roses, lilacs and lily-of-the-valley. I love them for their scents.

    I just love lavender plants. I planted several different varieties of lavender in my front yard. When the lavender blooms, it smells so good and the flowers look lovely. Lavender plants also attract lots of butterflies. :)

    My ultimate favorites are the lavender, lily of the valley and dandelion. I love the scent of the lavender and the meaning of the lily of the valley flowers. I know dandelion is a weed but for me it’s one beautiful flower. :D

    My favorite plant is the California poppy. They’re a very simple flower but I grew up with them in the backyard and they always make me happy when I see them.

    I have such a black thumb… don’t know much plants/flowers. But my neighbors have a gorgeous hydrangea bush that blooms this time of year… LOVE. So I’m going with that!

    Can’t wait to get my hands on more Kowalski goodness!!!!!

    Orchids are my favorite. My dad grows them (read: ignores them) in a tiny greenhouse in his backyard and they bloom like mad for him!

    Since I killed every plant and flower I have ever purchased, including a cactus. I like anything that is still living after it has been in my hand after a week. But I do love daffodils. One year my mom and I plants some in the yard. All the ones she planted come up and the ones I did never did.

    Im sure there is a real name for them. But I really love those dual colored roses. The ones where the tips are a different color.

    Yikes! I swear I put an entry in yesterday, but I don’t see it today. If I missed it, I’m sorry. Not intending a double entry, but I want at least one!

    Wild daisies are my favorite.

    I’m very allergic to certain types of pollen so I’m not really a “garden” type of gal (and no flowers in the house!), but I like looking at the dwarf Red Dragons (Japanese maples) that my husband has planted along our driveway….

    My favorite flowers are stargazer lilies. I love them but am not very good at actually growing them. With that being said, my favorite flowers to grow are hydrangeas. I love them and they seem to love me back since I have yet to kill one. :)
