Unwrap My 12 Days of Giveaways

Dear Reader,

My heart is full! The early response to One Big Happy Family has been so very gratifying. Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who has already picked up the book, and especially for all of the messages and emails and reviews letting me know how much you love it! I can’t tell you how much this means to me, especially with this book, which is one of my personal favorites.

Special note to my UK readers: One Big Happy Family is available now in the UK, too!

Please don’t come home for Christmas. . .

Julie Parker’s kids are her greatest gift. Still, she’s not exactly heartbroken when they ask to skip a big Christmas. Her son Nick is taking a belated honeymoon with his bride Blair while her daughter Dana will purge every reminder of the guy who dumped her. Again. Julie feels practically giddy for one-on-one holiday time with Heath, the (much) younger man she’s secretly dating.

But her plans go from cozy to chaotic when Nick and Dana plead for Christmas at the family cabin in memory of their late father, Julie’s ex. She can’t refuse, even though she dreads their reactions to her new man when they realize she’s been hiding him for months.

As the guest list grows in surprising ways, from Blair’s estranged mom to Heath’s precocious children, Julie’s secret is one of many to be unwrapped. Over this delightfully complicated and very funny Christmas, she’ll discover that more really is merrier, and that a big, happy family can become bigger and happier, if they let go of old hurts and open their hearts to love.

12 DAYS OF GIVEAWAYS

One Big Happy Family is such a special book that I wanted to do something special to celebrate its release, so I’m doing 12 Days of Giveaways, with prizes like a custom enameled steel ornament, tote bags, cozy blankets, fuzzy socks, sweet treats, and more. Every day, more winners are being announced on the Contest page of my website.

If you haven’t entered yet, there’s still time to get in! The grand prize winner will win all of the prizes from the previous eleven days, plus a coveted spot on the Review Crew for Beach Vibes in early 2025. (The giveaway is open internationally, but since Review Crew members must have a US mailing address, there will be an alternate prize if the winner lives outside the US.)
