Wine Blog Tour Invitation

WOW! Women On Writing announces Sara Fasolino's blog tour

Blog Tour Dates:
August 13 - August 31
 
You're invited!
Meet Sara and her fabulous blog hostesses

Wine Lovers,    

It's never too early to start thinking about wine! But which do you choose? What kind of wine pairs well with a breakfast burrito?  

 

Okay, I'm slightly kidding about wine with breakfast. (wink) But I'm not kidding about the wonderful complexities of wine. If you are anything like me, you love wine but don't know too much about it. Recently, I decided to learn a little more about wine so I can be somewhat savvy at dinner parties. And the next time I go to a restaurant, maybe I'll do the ordering!

 

If you've decided to expand your knowledge of wine, too, look no further than the beginner wine series by sommelier Sara Fasolino. Her book, Cabernet Sauvignon for Beginners: A Guide to Buying and Enjoying Wine is the perfect place to start. In addition to advice on choosing a good Cabernet Sauvignon, there is wine trivia and history, food pairings, and other tips for wine lovers.          

 

You will not believe what Sara had to go throughFree Wine E-Books to become a certified sommelier! Stop by The Muffin today for a fun interview with Sara, and pick up a copy of Cabernet Sauvignon for Beginners or another book in the wine series. Everyone receives a free copy! The giveaway will close the last day of the tour on Wednesday, September 7, so don't let your friends miss out. Tweet about this great giveaway using our hashtag #Wine101CabSauv.

Until My Soul Gets It Right  

Tour Dates: September 18, 2012 - October 12, 2012


Title: Until My Soul Gets It Right (The Bibliophiles - Book Two)

Author: Karen Wojcik Berner

Genre: Fiction

  

Synopsis:
The ladies (and man) of the Bibliophiles Book Club are back! This time the spotlight is on Catherine. Catherine Elbert has never been good at making decisions, whether it was choosing an ice cream flavor as a child or figuring out what she wanted to be when she grew up. The only thing Catherine knew for sure was there had to be more to her life than being stuck on her family's farm. 

 

So Catherine became enamored with the complete opposite of the flat farmlands of Burkesville, Wisconsin--the ocean, lobsters, and rugged coast of Portland, Oregon. Despite her parents' threat to disown her and her brothers' bets on how many days until she comes home Catherine heads for Peaks Island, off the coast of Portland.

 

She is finally free. Or so she thought. What Catherine forgot was that you can't run away from yourself!  

 

Participate!  Please  email us with "Blog Tour Partnership" in the subject line and your available dates. We schedule 2-3 stops per week from September 18 - October 12. You will receive a copy of Until My Soul Gets It Right by Karen Berner. We look forward to hearing from you!

Televenge Tour Dates: October 8, 2012 - November 2, 2012


Title: Televenge

Author: Pam King Cable

Genre: Women's Fiction 

  

Synopsis:
Andie Oliver is a faithful woman--to God, to her handsome husband Joe, and to televangelist Reverend Calvin Artury, a Godfather in a Mafia of holy men.

Raised in the 1970s to be subservient and submissive in the tradition of the Bible-belt South, she becomes a prisoner of that tradition. As a reluctant member of Artury's evangelical megachurch, the House of Praise in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Andie's dream of children, home, and marriage falls apart when Joe is hired by the ministry team. Joe had been a gentle lover, a kind man, and a hard-working and faithful husband. Only lately had Andie felt him turn his attention more to church than her.

Vivid and tragic, Televenge exposes chaos in the megachurch, and embraces those who discover their destiny in unconditional love in a world fraught with fear and intimidation. With more twists and turns than the Blue Ridge Parkway, Televenge takes you from the Piedmont South to the Hawaiian Islands, to Nigeria, Africa, and back to the high country of North Carolina.

Editor's Pick, from Book Expo America, 2012 ~ Library Journal
