July Reader Contest

It’s that time again—the first of the month means a new reader contest.

Beguiled, a collection of short stories and novellas by Claire Delacroix and Deborah CookeThis month’s prize is a signed trade paperback copy of Beguiled, the new collection of my previously published short stories and novellas being published this month. As usual, the contest is open internationally and, as usual, I’ll add another prize for every 25 entries. Good luck everyone!

  6. Wow every time I stop by you are giving out goodies. Love the cover and I love collections. Sometimes there is just not enough time before bed to read a whole book (once I start I do not put it down) so collections let me get my reading fix and my sleep. 🙂

      2. Hi ELF – please look in your email for a message from me. (It might be in your spam folder.) I’ll need your mailing address to send out your book. 🙂

        If it isn’t there, you can post a new comment here including your mailing address. If you include a hotlink or two in your comment, it will go to moderation, so no one else will see it but me. I’ll delete it after I get your address. That’s a sneaky way to use spam filters for our benefit!

    1. Hi Patricia – You’ll find that since I’ve gone indie and republished much of my backlist myself, many of my books are only available for purchase online. In print, in bookstores, you might only find the first 8 Dragonfire novels by Deborah Cooke, the Dragon Diaries YA by Deborah Cooke and the first Bride Quest trilogy by Claire Delacroix. There’s a complete printable list of my books under About Deborah – right here.

About Me
USA Today bestselling author Deborah Cooke, who also writes as Claire Delacroix

I’m Deborah and I love writing romance novels that blend emotion, humor, and happily-every-after. I’ve been publishing my stories since 1992 and have written as Claire Delacroix (historical and fantasy romance), Claire Cross (time travel romance and romantic comedy) and myself (paranormal romance and contemporary romance). My goal is to keep you turning the pages, no matter which sub-genre you prefer.
