Hi there!
I'm pleased to announce the winner of the January 2012 Alternative-Read.com book cover award.
Congratulations goes to... Laura Givens for the beautiful cover of Butterfly Garden, Book cover entry #4 January 2012, written by Annette Blair.
January 2012 Book Cover Entry #4
Book Title: Butterfly Garden
Book Cover Designer Name: Laura Givens
Book Blurb:
Amish woman Sara Lapp, all but shunned
for studying with the local doctor to become a midwife, is shocked
that, after months of waiting, her first call comes from “Mad” Adam
Zuckerman, a self-appointed outcast. Adam doesn’t want her to attend at
a birth, but to tend to his children because his wife has died in
childbed. Adam is afraid to love his children, because he might hurt
them in the way his father hurt him. Without his late wife, Abby, to
protect them, Adam must find someone else to care for the girls. He can
think of only one woman brave enough, Spinster Sara Lapp, the little
midwife whose passion for things beyond her control is greater than is
good for her.
This month, February, I am trying out a different way to do the voting. I'd like to see if leaving a comment on each of the nominees blog posts would work better than a poll. One comment = one vote - per person. Voting will start as usual on the 11th of each month. Any comments before the 11th will not be counted, so it will still be a fair vote.
As usual there will be a promotional video coming this way, soon!
