Announcing the O, Juliet Giveaway!


To help celebrate the release of Robin Maxwell's new novel, O, Juliet and the associated HF Round Table event, I have a copy to give away to one lucky winner!

Giveaway is open to US and International entries.  Giveaway ends on February 12th.

SYNOPSIS:  Before Juliet Capelletti lie two futures: a traditionally loveless marriage to her father's business partner, or the fulfillment of her poetic dreams, inpired by the great Dante. Unlike her beloved friend Lucrezia, who looks forward to her arranged marriage into the Medici dynasty, Juliet has a wild, romantic imagination that takes flight in the privacy of her bedchamber and on her garden balcony.

Her life and destiny are forever changed when Juliet meets Romeo Monticecco, a soulful young man seeking peace between their warring families. A dreamer himself, Romeo is unstoppable, once he determines to capture the heart of the remarkable woman foretold in his stars.

Read my review HERE.


Want more chances to win?  Hop on over to my fellow HF Round Table ladies and improve your chances:

Allie at Hist-Fic Chick
Arleigh at Historical-Fiction.com
Heather at The Maiden's Court
Lizzy at Historically Obsessed
Lucy at Enchanted by Josephine

Good Luck!!!
