From Genevieve Graham, author of Under the Same Sky, comes a sweeping romantic historical novel of one man’s strange gift and dangerous battles…

Dougal MacDonnell, a fierce warrior from the Highlands of Scotland, is able to hear the thoughts of other men and dream how the future will unfold. Devastated by the loss of his family during the Battle of Culloden in 1746, he fosters a deep hatred for the English. But when Glenna, the love of his life and a Scottish outlaw, is captured and shipped overseas, Dougal is forced to join an English army made of vanquished Scots. Now fighting on the side of his sworn enemies, he embarks on a journey that will take him across the seas to the colonies. There he will risk everything for the chance to find his true love.

    I like the end of the day after everything is done and everyone is in the bed, that's when I can pile up and read uninterrupted for hours

    I love the night, the night life, the moment just before you fall asleep. So many great things happen during the night.

    My favorite part of the day is about 5:30 pm when get home from work and the evening is mine to do whatever I want. That usually consists of getting on the computer for a bit, reading my current book, eating dinner and then watching some television. Sounds exciting, doesn't it?

    Evening or at night. Pretty much any time of the day when it's just me at home, the chores are done, and I can focus on something I want or need to do, :)

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    This is absolutely wonderful! Besides the usual cowboy book in my mini-library at home, you can often find copies of some particularly sexy highlander novels. This one sounds awesome! Thanks for hosting =)

    My favorite part of the day - the morning =D

    I have yet to read a highlander story and would love to read this one. My favorite time is probably like all the other moms out there. At the end of the day when it is just me and I can sit and do whatever I please without someone calling my name.

    Sound of the Heart sounds like a fantastic read and I'm adding it, as well as Under the Same Sky to my TBR list.

    My favorite time of day is really early in the morning, when it's just me, a cup of coffee, my book, and silence!

    Thanks for the amazing giveaway!

Book Tour: Bring Me Back by Karen Booth

I’m Karen, a Midwestern girl transplanted in the South, raised on 80s music, Judy Blume, and the films of John Hughes. An early preoccupation with Rock ‘n’ Roll led me to spend my twenties working my way from intern to executive in the music industry. Much of my writing revolves around the world of backstage passes and band dynamics. My first full-length novel, “Bring Me Back”, is a story I had in my head for nearly eight years before my fingers hit the keyboard. Sleeping and eating quickly became a luxury, a plan I have since dubbed the Writer’s Diet. I channeled teenage memories of plastering my walls with posters to weave the tale of music journalist, Claire Abby, and the dreamy British rock-star crush of her youth, Christopher Penman. “Bring Me Back” is a work of women’s fiction, published by Turquoise Morning Press. When I’m not creating fictional musicians, I’m listening to everything from old-school Cheap Trick to Duran Duran to Superchunk with my kids, honing my Southern
