$25 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway! **GIVEAWAY OVER**

And the winner is…Mrs. Mommy Booknerd!!!

A Modern Love Story is here!! And you know what that means, right? Yup…another $25 Amazon gift card giveaway to one lucky commenter. (Don’t you love celebrations?!) Remember,  no purchase necessary…just say “hi” if that’s all you want to do! But don’t forget to leave your email address so I can contact the winner Friday morning.

ALSO…(yes, there’s more), A Modern Love Story will be marked at an introductory rate of $.99 during this giveaway!! (Once the contest is over, it will be raised to it’s regular $2.99 list price.)

The final piece of this little celebration will be music! (Because what’s a celebration without music?!) The main plot of A Modern Love Story was actually conceived of after listening to “Photographs & Gasoline” by Framing Hanley. Now, as most know, I’m inspired to write by the music I listen to (as you can see by the Inspiration tab on my website). But this was a little extreme, even for me. LOL I wouldn’t have it any other way though!! To capture the various moods throughout the book, I created a playlist I don’t think I’ll ever top. So, in addition to this giveaway, I’ll be posting songs from my playlist on Facebook over the next two days. Between “Photographs & Gasoline”, and the others on the list, you’re going to get a pretty good feel for the tone of this “modern” love story.

A MODERN LOVE STORY

After the death of her parents, Robbie Byrne is put in foster care where she meets her exact opposite, Luc Cintrone. Abandoned as a small child, Luc is a foul-mouthed rebel who takes it upon himself to be her defender, whether she likes it or not. As they grow up, they fumble through their different roles in each other’s lives—family, confidants and then, ultimately, lovers.

Just as the couple is settling into their newfound relationship, they encounter a beautiful lawyer, Payten, who is immediately taken by Luc’s rough edges. But he denies her, making him absolutely irresistible in her eyes. Payten is a woman who has grown accustomed in her privileged life in obtaining whatever she wants, no matter the cost or sacrifice. And she is fairly confident Luc will eventually see things her way…one way or another.

You can purchase A Modern Love story on Amazon.

You can find reviews for all my books on Goodreads.

Thank you, everyone, for stopping by!

** I’ll be at the necessary day job all day…but I’ll try to comment and chat when I can! Enjoy the giveaway, everyone!!

    • You’re absolutely right, Des. And while I was writing this, Luc was ALL MINE! But the time has come to share him with the world. Hopefully everyone loves him as much as I do. ;)

    • LOL I did say “hi” was fine, and I think there were a couple of those here somewhere. ;) Soooo glad you enjoyed Amber Eyes! And yes, Connected too. I’m gearing up to start writing Twisted (the book after Connected) the week after next. This week and next, I’m trying to relax a bit and get some reading in. (Of course, that’s when I’m NOT chatting books with a bunch of voracious readers who are bound and determined to make my TBR list explode!) :D

  41. As you know, I think you are fantastic already! But, this “see if I can do it” book is amazing Jodi. I read it in hours and stayed up way too late trying to get through it because I wanted to know how it ended. The romance was just the tip of the iceberg and the plot with Peyton was crazy. You hit it out of the park with this one girl! Thanks for the great read.

    • Thanks for the well wishes! And yeah…whenever possible, I try to keep up with any and all comments/emails I receive. If someone is nice enough to take the time to chat with me, I want to return the gesture. Besides, my readers are my purpose for writing. I want them to feel as appreciated as they make me feel. ;) Thanks for stopping by, Ash!!

    • LOL You’re the best, Monica!! Okay…I won’t enter you for the giveaway, and I’ll send your love on to Luc. (Don’t be surprised if you get an attitude about it though!) ;)
