Happy New Year!

I hope everyone has a happy, healthy 2008, with lots of great memories yet to be made. The contest to win The Italian's Chosen Wife along with four other books by fabulous new authors is closed, and we'll be drawing the winner in the next week or two. We had loads of entries so thanks everyone who took the time to participate!

I'm offering another contest to win hardbacks of my two historical novels, Far Horizons and Another Country, both published by Robert Hale Ltd. These books are set in Scotland, Canada, and Boston, and the inspiration for them comes from my own ancestors, although I have to confess I fictionalised quite a bit of their story! But the premise is true, and the letters featured in the first book are authentic. My great grandmother transcribed them and my mother has kept copies--fascinating reading and such a wonderful legacy to possess. I'm currently writing the third in this series, and have more planned, so if you like what you read, there should be more to come!

Now, how do you enter? Simple, really. Find my book here and then drop me an e-mail at katehewitt@kate-hewitt.com with the name of the two main characters of the book. I'll draw a winner from the entries by January 15.
