Christmas in JulyWelcome to the Christmas in July Giveaway Hop hosted by I Am a Reader and Laurie Here.  This is a blog hop that is celebrating Christmas books!  I loved Hallmark’s Christmas in July movie marathon a couple of weeks ago.  I am still watching Christmas movies I put on the DVR back then!  As a result of Hallmark, I love Debbie Macomber’s Mrs. Miracle books (okay, I’ve only seen the two Hallmark movies, but I’m sure they are good).  As a result of all the promotion on Hallmark, I heard about Debbie Macomber’s upcoming Christmas book Mr. Miracle.  In fact, I did what I don’t usually do–I pre-ordered the book!

Here’s a summary:

Harry Mills is a guardian angel on a mission: help twenty-four-year-old Addie Folsom get her life back on track—and, if the right moment strikes, help her find love. Posing as a teacher at a local college in Tacoma, Washington, Harry is up to the task, but not even he can predict the surprises that lay in store.

After trying to make it on her own, Addie has returned home to Tacoma for the holidays, but this time she plans to stay for good, enrolling in the local community college to earn her degree. What she doesn’t plan to do is run into Erich Simmons.

Addie and her next-door neighbor, Erich, are like night and day. Growing up, he was popular and outgoing while she was rebellious and headstrong, and he never missed an opportunity to tease her. Now she intends to avoid him entirely, yet when they’re suddenly forced to spend Christmas together, Addie braces for trouble.

Perhaps it’s the spirit of the season or the magic of mistletoe, but Addie and Erich soon find they have more in common than they thought—and that two people who seem so wrong for each other may actually be just right. With a little prompting from a certain angelic teacher, the two are in for a holiday miracle they’ll never forget.

Okay, I’m really excited now since I was born in Tacoma, Washington!!  Anyway, my giveaway is for a Christmas book of your choice.  It can be this one or another one, if you like.  Please enter the rafflecopter by 9 P.M. Pacific time on July 31, and don’t forget to enter the other giveaways in the blog hop!  Check out the linky below.  This is an international giveaway as long as Book Depository, Fishpond, or Amazon ships to you.

    I love the lights and food at Christmas

    We do Christmas in July simply because our grandparents, my kids’ great-grandparents, spend Christmas in Florida, so when they return, they bring all the gifts and clothes that they’ve bought them and wrap them up for Christmas in July. They decorate a tree and make a big dinner and everything.

    I am in no way ready for Christmas, even though I love spending the time with family. However, it is always a good time for a good book!

    I love everything about Christmas, but I like watching the kids open their presents best of all.

  13. I LOVE watching all the cute Hallmark Christmas movies during Christmastime. 🙂 Sadly, I never watch as many as I’d like to, though. Thanks for the giveaway!

    I don’t know if it’s a tradition or not but every year we make sure that the stockings my Nana made for my boys still go up on the wall even though they are in their 20s.

    I really have been wanting to read Dash and Lily’s Book of Dares (Rachel Cohn and David Levithan) and Let It Snow (John Green and some other authors) for so long but I’m waiting on winter 😀
