Are You Lucky in Love?
St. Patrick’s Day is coming up and you know what that means…get ready for the pinching! Fingers on your fanny, your arm, where ever those pesky leprechauns can get you, they will. Me? I don’t mind a pinch now and again. In fact, this month is the 17th anniversary of when I met my husband. Single, minding my own business and NOT looking for love at all (at that moment ;)), there he was, in a warm cozy bar tucked away in a ski resort. *sigh* I do enjoy spring skiing.
It’s my friend’s fault. As any good matchmaking friend, she was trying to set me up with someone else, an effort to which I was uninterested. As she was describing this fabulous man she knew, my husband-to-be leaned over the bar to order a beer and I pointed, “Does your friend look like him? Because that guy right there–that one’s my type.”
It was history from there. She sought him out, made up a story and got the two of us talking. We’ve been married 14 years this June and it was my lucky day in March, to be sure.
To celebrate, let’s say we giveaway a copy of my upcoming release ~ You can be the first to read Ladd Springs!
Delaney Wilkins finds herself at odds with hotel developer Nick Harris over a deathbed promise and a mysterious find in the forest. Both are after title to Ladd Springs, a mecca of natural springs, streams and trails in the eastern Tennessee mountains, a tract of land worth millions. But Ernie Ladd, current owner of the property and uncle to Delaney, is adamantly opposed to them both.
Felicity Wilkins, Delaney’s daughter, deserves to inherit her family’s legacy, but neighbor Clem Sweeney is working against her, ingratiating himself with Ernie Ladd. Clem is also harboring a secret that will make him a very wealthy man—unless the others stop him before he can bring it to fruition.
Complicating matters is Annie Owens. Ex-girlfriend to Jeremiah Ladd, Ernie’s estranged son living in Atlanta, she declares her daughter Casey is Jeremiah’s, making Casey every bit as entitled to the property as Felicity—only Annie hasn’t proven this claim. Yet.
All are fighting to get the property, but only one will walk away with the gold. Which will it be? Find out in the first installment of Ladd Springs…
Next up will be Ladd Fortune, set for release this June with three more before the end of the year! So get your hands on this one early — you won’t want to miss a single installment. To enter, all you need to do is leave a comment!

I am lucky in love when it came to my husband of 23 years. When we first met I had just had a very bad break up with my last boyfriend. I spent most of the evening telling him what I would and would not put up with in a relationship. He asked me out in spite of my attitude, and the rest is history. We got married 5 years later and are still very much in love. I would say I am very lucky in love. Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win.

Such a sweet story! Loved reading it :)
As for me, I don’t know that I would say I’m lucky in love or not. Well, maybe it’s better to say I’ve not always been lucky in love. I’ve been lucky at times and unlucky at other times. Married once when very young, divorced once, remarried someone else later and now still happily (most of the time :P) married so I would say right now I feel lucky in love .
Thank you for the chance to enter :D Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone :)

I don’t know that luck has any bearing on having a successful relationship. It’s a whole lot of work. I married my high school sweetheart right out of high school. We have been married for 17 years.

What a great giveaway hop! I have yet to be lucky in love but I’m working on it. My favorite love book is “Outlander” by Diana Gabaldon. Jamie Fraser is amazing and beautiful. I enjoy St. Patty’s Day and this year I’m spending it with my best friend. We’re going to two Irish Pubs and also some dance clubs. I am also wearing green and am not a fan of getting pinched. I’m not Irish either, but many people think I am because my hair is red, my eyes green and my name is Meghan, but I’m not at all. I won’t be telling anybody that, however… let them believe I’m Irish.
Thanks for the giveaway!
