Sea Glass Island by Sherryl Woods: Book Spotlight & Giveaway (US/Canada)

by

Sea Glass Island is the third and final installment in Sherryl Woods Ocean Breeze Series.  As I’ve been doing the spotlights on these books over the last month or so I’ve been wanting to delve into them myself and I noticed there are audio versions so I may be splurging on those yet.  I love the cover on this one!  It really speaks of summertime and a walk on the beach.  Today I’ll give you some information on the book and of course there is a giveaway at the end of the post so be sure to enter for your chance to win one of two copies up for grabs.

About Sea Glass Island (from Sherryl’s website)

Under summer skies, New York Times bestselling author Sherryl Woods evokes family, friendship and heartfelt emotion

With her two younger sisters heading for the altar, will Samantha Castle exchange old dreams for new ones? Lately she’d rather be on the North Carolina coast with family than in New York with agents and actors. Though she vows not to let her teenage crush on Ethan Cole influence her decision, it’s hard to ignore her feelings for the local war hero.

Ethan lost more than his leg in Afghanistan. He lost his belief in love. Even being surrounded by couples intent on capturing happily-ever-after won’t open this jaded doctor’s heart. It’s going to take a sexy, determined woman—one who won’t take no for an answer.

About Sherryl Woods (from Sherryl’s website)

With two other careers to her credit before becoming a novelist and four states in which she’s lived for extended periods of time, Sherryl Woods has collected friends and memories, along with way too much unnecessary junk.

“The friends are the only things I’ve brought with me through the years that really matter,” she says. “I could probably live without one more chintz teacup, another tin-litho sandpail or another snowglobe, but I need those friends.”

Author of more than 100 romance and mystery novels, Sherryl Woods grew up in Virginia. Over the years she had lived in Ohio and Florida, as well as California. Currently she divides her time between Key Biscayne, Florida and Colonial Beach, Virginia, the small, river-front town where she spent her childhood summers.

A graduate of Ohio State University School of Journalism, Sherryl spent more than ten years as a journalist, most of them as a television critic for newspapers in Ohio and Florida. For several years she also coordinated a motivational program for the more than 8,000 employees at the University of Miami-Jackson Memorial Medical Center.

Her first book, RESTORING LOVE, was published in 1982 by Dell Candlelight Ecstasy under the pseudonym of Suzanne Sherrill. Her second book, SAND CASTLES, under the pseudonym of Alexandra Kirk, was published later that same year by Bantam. She began using her own name when she moved to the Second Chance at Love line at Berkley Publishing. In 1986, she began writing full-time and also began her long career at Silhouette Books with the Desire title NOT AT EIGHT, DARLING, set in the world of television which she covered for so many years.

In addition to her more than 75 romances for Silhouette Desire and Special Edition, she has written thirteen mysteries — nine in the Amanda Roberts series and four in the Molly DeWitt series.

When she’s not writing or reading, Sherryl loves to garden, though she’s not at her best on a riding lawn mower. She also loves tennis, theater, and ballet, even though her top spin has long since vanished, she’s never set foot on a stage, and she’s way too uncoordinated to dance. She also loves baseball and claims anyone who’s ever seen Kevin Costner in “Bull Durham” can understand why.

  8. I really enjoy Sherryl’s books. And she is one of the authors I can share with my Mother in law who just turned 90. Thanks for the giveaway.

  15. What a wonderfully supportive story for so many veterans of battle who have come back scarred both physically and mentally. They need the peace and quiet that time on a beach can offer. Congratulations to Sherryl Woods for her novels that remind us to be thankful for these men and women who have fought for our freedom.

    I look forward to reading “Sea Glass Island” and thank you both for the generous giveaway.
