Magnolia House Give Away!!!

With the republishing of my first novel Magnolia House after being professional edited by the gifted Jo Field, and now resplendent with its beautiful new cover, by Avalon Graphics, I am giving two Kindle copies away! But before I go into all the fabby detail, here is the first sentence.... Take it away Helen!


Jesamiah Acorne, four and twenty years old, Captain of the Sea Witch, sat with his hands cradled around an almost empty tankard of rum, staring blankly at the drips of candle-wax that had hardened into intricate patterns down the sides of the green glass bottle  Bring It Close by Helen Hollick

 
 
When Jane Leonard gave half of her house to her only son, little did she realise that within twelve months, she would be forced to sell the home she had lived in for nearly five decades.

The choice for this action was not hers, but the events that led up to her handing over fifty percent of Magnolia House paled by comparison to what happened after the ink had dried on the documents that named the new owners.

As Magnolia House is put on the market for sale, love and betrayal, hopes and dreams and ultimately family loyalty will affect the lives of all of those who become involved.

If you would like the chance to win a Kindle copy, with a personal message, with love of course, from moi via Kindle Graph, then leave a comment telling me why and adding I want it!
