A special Free Book Friday! I’m giving away an autographed copy of the beautiful and Perky! Michelle Willingham’s first book, Her Irish Warrior!
I’ve known Michelle since she was a teenager and she has been exhausting me ever since. She can bake two dozen cupcakes for one of her kids’ class parties, plant a hedge, write 10 pages, then when she’s all done (by 8 am) trot off to teach a hundred sixth graders. At RWA conferences, she’s the one putting on Winnie-the-Pooh jammies at midnight to run off to the eHarlequin pajama party while the rest of us are flopping on the bed. Which explains why we call her Perky! Michelle. 😆
Actually, we think there are six of her because otherwise we can’t explain her. If she wasn’t so adorable, we might shoot her.
Here’s Michelle in all her fabulous, head-turning glory dancing the night away at the Harlequin party in New York City a couple years ago. Is she cute or what?
Michelle is giving away an autographed copy of my first Haven book, Secrets Rising, on her blog today so visit there for a chance to win that book, and drop a comment here to win Her Irish Warrior. And don’t forget to look for her new book, The Warrior’s Touch, in stores NOW!!
Have a fabulous weekend!! (Drawing on Monday!)

She IS perky, isn’t she? She has the most discipline about her writing of anyone I know. Cute too
And the cover gods have been good to her so far, haven’t they?

Agghh, I hate perky people. 😆
I’m kidding. Okay, half-kidding. I’d probably get tired just watching her.
Does she know how to lay laminate floor? Do some fence work? I could use a little of her energy. Does she want a “vacation?” Southeastern Ontario is lovely in the fall.

Yea! You girls know how to treat your fans! I’ve read both these books and love them. Although I gave or rather loaned my copy of Her Irish Warrior to a friend and I wouldn’t mind having a copy again. Love Secrets Rising, by the way!

I’m like Melissa, I would love to have a signed copy of Michelle’s book. I have read both of her new MacEgan series, and they were both fantastic. I can’t wait for Patrick’s story to come out. You both are among my 5 favorite authors. My Oct. books came this morning from harlequin, and I am starting on your’s tonight after I get the house cleaned(that way I won’t have any interuptions). :snoopy: Can’t wait to find out what happens next in Haven. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I won’t ask to be on the drawing list because I just received a free book from you (thank you!), but after reading about Michelle and visiting her blog, I definitely will be ordering her two books above – they look great! :rockon:
Oh, and just reading about all she does make me tired. LOL.

I’m definitely not perky :no: but I wish I was. The book sounds fantastic. And wonderful covers – especially The Warrior’s Touch :purr: . That one would have to be put facing out so I could see it every day. And soooo glad to be back :biggrin:

Hi Suzanne!
Now where did you find that old picture? Good heavens, that was years ago.
For the record, although she won’t admit it, Suzanne is definitely full of energy. And she loves to tear up the floor at the Harlequin party. :bananadance:
