Pick That Title!

Judging is now open on the Name That Bonus Chapter contest!

The rules? Go here to read the entries. Then come back here and post your top three in the comments section by BOTH comment number and title. For example, you might choose: Comment #72, The Delight of the Dorringtons; Comment #521, The Prancing Peony; etc. (This is because some posts contained multiple title suggestions, so, to make sure there’s no confusion, I need both Comment number and title.)

One judge will be chosen at random to receive a shiny new paperback of The Orchid Affair. All winners will be announced next Wednesday.

Let the judging begin!

    OOh yay!

    I loved these three:
    (1) ‘Camellias & Cupid-A Very Dorrington Valentine’s Day’

    (2) Capers and Chrysanthemums

    (3) Lure of the Ginger Blossom

    Thanks so much! This was fun! There were definite golden titles there – but I like the flower names too much not to go with three of those! 🙂
