There’s nothing like a Christmas romance to get you in the holiday mood, and this November, twelve romance writers will be bringing you a fun event to celebrate our holiday releases, share Christmas favorites, and give away lots of free books and other goodies!

All of the posts will be hosted by Happy Ever After, USA Today’s site devoted to all things romance, where each author will give away a copy or copies of her new release. The posts will also appear on the authors’ own sites, where we’ll give away other holiday goodies — from candy and ornaments to holiday cards and advent calendars. Join us for twelve days of romance and fun!

I’ll update links as the posts go live, so check back often if you’d like direct access to all the posts.
