March Giveaway: Debut novel from another McRae!


It's been a busy few weeks at the McRae household, and last week was busy for a very fun reason: my husband, Alex, had the book launch for his debut novel, Rough Draft, at our beloved Carnegie Library here in Newnan!


Here are some images from his event there last week, which had a huge draw. (#jealous)

While his book has absolutely nothing to do with tea, its author is married to your blogger here, so I thought that some of you might be interested in checking out the other writer in the house. (He's definitely the better writer, but I happily claim to be the better editor, and together, we make a good team.)

What's Rough Draft about? Well, it's got flying bullets and dishonest journalists and a female character named Tink that I just adore! Here's the blurb:

Alabaster Cash clawed his way to the top of the investigative journalism heap by being unafraid to ask the hard questions and unwilling to take “no comment” for an answer.

His stories have sent celebrities running to rehab and politicians to prison. The only person he’s never interviewed is himself. He doesn’t mind the questions. He just doesn’t have the answers. All he has is a name he can’t explain and a mother who abandoned him on the eve of his thirteenth birthday.

When a woman claiming to have information about his mother—and his name—is shot while knocking at his front door, Cash must choose between uncovering a past that haunts him and saving the small-town newspaper that launched him to fame and fortune.

A wrong move could doom a publication Cash loves. It could also put him in the grave.


So if you'd like to win a copy of Rough Draft signed by Alex (whose birthday is today, by the way!), just leave an "Enter me" to this post between now and 7 a.m. Friday, March 25, making sure I have a way to contact you if you're the winner, and you'll be entered to win. We'll send it anywhere in the world. Good luck!
