WOULD YOU LIKE TO WIN A SIGNED COPY OF BOOK 2, A PASSION REDEEMED, BEFORE IT EVEN HITS THE STORES??? You can by signing up for my newsletter and entering my newsletter-only giveaway contest. Read on ...

Does Charity get on your nerves? Would you like to see her get her due? Well, come September 2008, Charity's on the hot seat in A Passion Redeemed, Book 2 in the Daughters of Boston Series!

I invite you to join me on this exciting publishing journey as we follow the saga of the O'Connors of Boston, step by publishing step. I'll keep you posted via newsletter as to important information, sneak peeks at the inside process and updates on book releases and signings. Simply leave your name, mailing address (optional) and email address below, and I will stay in touch.

Charity’s story, A Passion Redeemed, will be in stores this September, and is available for preorder on both Amazon.com and Christianbooks.com. BUT I am giving away a signed copy from my own personal author copies (in August, I hope!) to the newsletter recipient who guesses my middle name. All you have to do is reply to this newsletter with your best guess as to what the initial “A” stands for in Julie A. Lessman. Here are some clues:

1.) I was raised in a devout Catholic family of thirteen kids.

2.) You might say my middle name is "uplifting."

3.) The name is, quite frankly, a bit unusual! 

One final winner will be drawn from any duplicate winners and will be announced in my next newsletter sometime this summer. Good luck!

Hugs,

Julie
