Book Spotlight: Son of a Soldier by Aiken Brown & Giveaway (US/Can)

July 13, 2012 by Darlene

Happy Friday everyone!  Time for a break from reviews to do a book spotlight instead.  Today’s spotlight is for a book called Son of a Soldier by Aiken A. Brown as she tours the blogosphere with Pump Up Your Book.  I haven’t had a chance to read my copy of this book yet but I will be as it sounds great and just the type of book I like so keep an eye out for my review in the next while.  I do have to say though, that while I think this cover is adorable, I’m not sure it suits the novel’s subject matter as you’ll see by the description so I’m really curious if it does in any way relate to the novel.  Anyhow, check out what the book is about, who the author is, and be sure to enter the giveaway at the end of the post to win a copy for yourself!

 

About Son of a Soldier

Son of a Soldier is the powerful story of how God used one unlikely, country girl to change the course of history. It seemed impossible to believe that an eighteen-year-old girl from the middle-of-nowhere, Tennessee would have any real significance in the history of our nation…that is until God chose her to make a Godly man out of a flawed, military hero’s stubborn son.

Hailey was a small town, farm girl who had never left her home state of Tennessee. She was a naïve tomboy who possessed an unassuming charm, the power of which she could not comprehend.

Grant was a rebellious Army brat who had seen the world. Glib, sarcastic and self-destructive, he was a loner lost in a world he had never felt he fit into.

They seemingly had little in common, but when two hearts collided, two worlds became one; while Hailey embarks on a beautiful journey of self-discovery in this unique coming-of-age story, Grant travels a winding, dirt road that helps him rediscover a lost innocence and discover a renewed purpose.
