Thanks to Kayleigh Clark of Berkley/NAL, I am giving away one print copy of ‘To See The Moon Again’.
Book Description:
Every day of her life Julia Rich lives with the memory of a horrible accident she caused long ago. In the years since, she has tried to hide her guilt in the quiet routine of teaching at a small South Carolina college, avoiding close relationships with family and would-be friends. But one day a phone call from Carmen, a niece she has never met, disrupts her carefully controlled world.
Carmen is a study in contrasts—comical yet wise, sunny yet contemplative, soft yet assertive. As she sets about gently drawing Julia from her self-imposed solitude into a place of hope, she also seeks her own peace for past mistakes.
Together, the two women embark on a journey that takes Julia far from the familiar comfort of home and gives Carmen the courage to open her heart. Together, their sightseeing trip turns into a discovery of truth, grace, redemption, and, finally, love…

A captivating story and emotional novel. thanks.
I’m not really sure. The characters sound interesting and I guess I’m curious about the journey they might take. Thanks for the chance to win a copy.
The cover caught my eye! It sounds like a story of friendship!
It will be interesting to see how both lives change as the two women relate. Thanks for the giveaway.
Because of the negative political associations I have personally with Bob Jones University, I looked this author and book up even though I wasn’t, and am not, planning to enter the giveaway. Whatever I may feel about that institution, it sure doesn’t get in the way of quality novel crafting for her (why would it? — I dunno). Respect to the writer!
The story sounds very interesting. I am interested in the relationship between Carmen and Julie.
