THAT SUMMER Give Away!
There’s only one week left until That Summer appears in stores, and look what I have to give away:
Hardcover copies of That Summer, and…
audio CDs of That Summer!
I’ll be giving away two copies of the hardcover and two copies of the audio CD.
Here’s your mission. Help spread the word about That Summer! You can post about it on Facebook, on your blog, on Twitter, pin it on Pinterest, share one of the That Summer cards I’ve posted on my Facebook author page, add That Summer to a summer reading list, tell a friend, or mention it to your local librarian or bookseller.
The word used in the industry is “buzz”, so any and all buzz about That Summer in the week before it comes out is very, very much appreciated.
Let’s get people talking about the book that Kirkus Reviews calls “a perfect beach read”!
That Summer has been compared to A.S. Byatt’s Possession and Kate Morton’s The Forgotten Garden, as well as Barbara Michaels’s gothic mystery novels (I’m still over the moon about that one!). The story goes back and forth between 2009 and 1849 as my modern heroine discovers a lost Pre-Raphaelite painting hidden behind the false back of an old wardrobe, leading her on a search deep into her family’s past– and her own.
Here’s the official That Summer page, where you can find a blurb, an excerpt, an audio excerpt, and glowing reviews from Library Journal, Kirkus, RT Book Reviews, and others:

Then just head back here and post in the Comments section (let me know whether you’d rather have the audio CD or the hardcover!). No need to include links, or anything like that: this is an honor system.
This give away is open internationally. The contest closes on Friday and winners will be announced on Saturday.
Let’s make That Summer the book of this summer!
I pinned it! I am eagerly anticipating June 3rd and the release of That Summer. I pre-ordered it ages ago on audio and e-book. I purposely did not schedule anything else on that day so I can read (but don’t tell anyone else that, I have to keep up appearances). So excited!
Thanks, Meredith! Only one more week!

Forgot to mention, I asked my local library to stock both the hardback and the audiobook 🙂
Shared on Facebook. Your Pink Carnation novels are my all time favorite series.. But I may be even more excited about That Summer. Just the thought of a pre raphaelite hero is making me swoon… Hardcover would be lovely.
I Tweeted, will probably FB too. I’ll take either; I have a hardcover ordered so if I get a CD, I’ll give it to someone who likes audiobooks. If I get a hardcover, I’ll share a copy with a friend.

Have so far read all but ine book that you written.
I have enjoyed all of them and I would love a signed book to add to my collection.
I shared on Facebook. Would love a hardcover copy. Love your books!
Would love to have the hardcover of your new book! I’ve read all the others and can never put them down! Pinned to my Pinterest!
I don’t use Facebook. Truth to tell I am a bit afraid of it. However, I will be sharing That Summer with the bookchat group at Croydon Library which is being held next Thursday. All the very best of wishes for a fantastic release day.
I forget to say that I prefer the hardcover should I be lucky enough to be one of the winners. My memory is completely visual, so if I hear something it goes in one ear and out the other, but if I read it, it stays there.
Our library system is getting “divorced” from other counties, so patrons are able to request books if there are no copies in our own system — so, of course, That Summer was one of the first I requested from the branch librarian and we are guaranteed to have a copy ASAP!! I would love a hardback copy of my own.
I have That Summer on my to-read list at Goodreads for a few months now. Can’t wait! Told all my friends about your books and how they have to read them! I would love a hardcopy.
I shared the link on my facebook page. I enjoy how you develop all of your characters throughout your books. I’m looking forward to reading That Summer. I would prefer a hard copy of your new book. Cheers!
I facebooked and tweeted!! I’m so excited for this book to come out!!
Oh and I would prefer the hard copy!
I’ve recommended it to a couple of friends who I think would enjoy it as well as posting a card on Facebook. I really enjoyed The Ashford Affair and I LOVE pre-Raphaelite artwork, so I expect to love That Summer as well!
Sorry- I would prefer a hard copy instead of audio. 🙂
Told my best friend about it, so now we’re both looking forward to it! I’d prefer the audio. Thanks for crafting such fantastic stories!
Shared. 🙂 I’m trying to contain my excitment to an acceptable level. My friend and I will see you June 3rd. Can’t wait! Hardcover would be wonderful. Xo
Shared on Facebook! I would be thrilled to win a hardcover! Thank you Lauren, for doing this giveaway. 🙂
Shared the “jungle beast” card on FB! And I’ve already been running my mouth about this book for several months. I can’t wait to read it, give-away-copy or no!
Ooops didn’t specify: hardcover would be preferred if I win 🙂
Shared on Facebook and Pinterest! Would love a hardback. Or an audio. I really don’t mind which one actually, I just want it! 🙂
I ordered two copies from my local bookshop, which was not planning on carrying it, and their hold shelf is very visible, so
perhaps it will catch the attention of other readers before I pick
them up. And I would like the audio version!
Shared! I’m eagerly awaiting this release. I’d love the hardcover.
Pinned it! Would love the hardcover! 😀
Shared on FB. I’d love a book, not the audio. Thanks so much!
It’s on my goodreads to read list and on my pinterest page. And if I win one (book please) I promise I’ll review it pdq!
I pinned it! So looking forward to this one and would love a hardcover 🙂
I would love to win a hardcover. I’ve had That Summer on my Goodreads to read list, since May 2.
