What are you thankful for?
With Thanksgiving Day tomorrow, it felt right to ask this question. And it feels right to answer it myself first.
What am I thankful for?
First and foremost, it’s God’s love and grace. What better gift can we hope for? God loves us even when we make mistakes and don’t particularly love ourselves (I’m guilty of that sometimes).
One of the things I’m grateful for is you, our readers. Every letter, review, word of support, simply the knowledge that you read our books means so much to us.
I’m grateful for releasing my first single-author Christian contemporary romance set, In Love by Christmas. Yes, I know it’s only Thanksgiving, 
but I believe it’s never too early to think about Christmas.
Sweet, faith-filled, wholesome Christian romances to warm your heart! Three full-length Christmas novels about faith, love, and second chances, together for the first time in this collection. Let a book trip to Rios Azules, a small town in south Texas with quirky residents and caring community, bring you joy and put a smile on your face! Join three unlikely couples as they let God work miracles in their lives and find love, hope, and future together.
In honor of Thanksgiving and to give thanks to our readers, Autumn Macarthur, Marion Ueckermann, and yours truly decided to offer a Tri-author Thanksgiving Paperback Giveaway at Fiction Full of Faith blog. Many thanks to Paula for hosting it! (Please note that only comments on this blog post at the Fiction Full of Faith blog count as entries for a chance to win featured paperbacks). Tri-author Thanksgiving Paperbacks Giveaway is open to entrants in the U.S. only. If the winner is international, they’ll receive ebooks. We’d love it if you could stop by the blog post!
Giveaway! One randomly chosen commenter to this post will receive ebook In Love By Christmas (to be gifted via BookFunnel). The giveaway is open until 6 p.m. CST November 26th.
What are you thankful for? I look forward to reading your comments!
Alexa Verde writes uplifting, diverse books about faith, love, and hope. She has had 200 short stories, articles, and poems published in the five languages that she speaks. After traveling the world and living in both hemispheres, she calls a small town in south Texas home. The latter is an inspiration for the fictional setting of her series Rios Azules Christmas and Secrets of Rios Azules. Alexa has a bachelor's degree in Spanish and a master's in Russian. She's worn the hats of reporter, teacher, translator, model (even one day counts!), caretaker, and secretary, but thinks that the writer's hat suits her the best.
Hi Alexa! Looking forward to reading your boxed set In Love by Christmas. Downloaded and ready to go. Thankful for my hardworking sons and daughter-in-laws, for my two grandsons, two granddaughters, for a comfortable home, plenty of food, on my table, health to get around and I gerächt with others, availability of so much great reading material, and the means to enjoy life and travel. God is good. Best wishes and Happy Thanksgiving.
Hi Alexa, how exciting to have boxed set just of your own books:)
I am thankful for my husband and two boys, for our extended family and for amazing friends who have become like family to us. I am thankful for work- for a job where I can share who Christ is to my students, for a home and peace. I pray that I never take for granted the many blessings God has given.
Blessings:)
