That’s right! We turned ONE YEAR OLD this week! It’s hard to believe it’s been that long, but my TimeHop assures me that I posted a lot about the new blog this week last year, so it MUST be true. Right?! :D
So what are we doing to celebrate our birthday? Well, several of us will have releases this month and chances to win some of those, but collectively…
We’re having a BIRTHDAY BASH giveaway!
Now, because we’re all about the romance, we’re not going to start until Valentine’s Day [or really, the 15th because that’s Sunday]. There’s going to be all kinds of chances to win books, books, and MORE BOOKS! YAY! And a super grand prize that we’ll announce later.
So stick around! Thank you for sticking with us this long and we hope to see you next year, too!
As always, if you’re a winner, please contact us at
