Giveaway: 2 copies of Arranged by Catherine McKenzie!

June 3, 2012 by Darlene

I am really excited to offer up 2 copies of Arranged by Catherine McKenzie today, first because she’s one of my favorite authors(and a Canadian!) and second because I loved this book and thought it was a fantastic read!  Arranged is Catherine’s second novel (my review);  her first was called Spin (my review) and it was awesome as well.  Her newest novel Forgotten is already available in Canada and I hope to read it soon and it will be available to all you US folks come October in paperback but you can pick it up on Kindle right now.  So for those who didn’t see my raving review I’ll tell you a bit about the book and the author and be sure to check out the giveaway for your chance to win a copy!

 

 

About Arranged

Anne Blythe has a great life: a good job, good friends, and a potential book deal for her first novel. When it comes to finding someone to share it with, however, she just can’t seem to get it right.

After yet another relationship ends, Anne comes across a business card for what she thinks is a dating service, and she pockets it just in case. When her best friend, Sarah, announces she’s engaged, Anne can’t help feeling envious. On an impulse, she decides to give the service a try because maybe she could use a little assistance in finding the right man. But Anne soon discovers the company isn’t a dating service; it’s an exclusive, and pricey, arranged marriage service. She initially rejects the idea, but the more she thinks about it-and the company’s success rate-the more it appeals to her. After all, arranged marriages are the norm for millions of women around the world, so why wouldn’t it work for her?

A few months later, Anne is travelling to a Mexican resort, where in one short weekend she will meet and marry Jack. And against all odds, it seems to be working out-until Anne learns that Jack, and the company that arranged their marriage, are not what they seem at all.

    I was intrigued when I first read about this book because of the heroine’s name, obviously, and tried to buy it when visiting Montreal (the bookstore, disappointingly, was unfamiliar with it and although it offered to order the book for me, I was on my way home). I am so pleased that Morrow is publishing her in this country and enjoyed Spin.

    By the way, I am following and enjoying your blog.
