*THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the giveaway and helped to get the word out about the release of Fraying at the Edge. Congratulations to Alison of Mount Joy, Pennsylvania!

Dear Readers ~
I’m so grateful for your encouragement and support concerning the release of Fraying at the Edge, book two in the Amish of Summer Grove series. It is available today!
Ties That Bind, is the award-winning, best-selling first book in the series, and for those who haven’t read it, you may want to be careful about clicking on any following links, as to avoid plot spoilers. If you’re interested in buying book one from your local store or you can order it online from several places, including Amazon, Books-A-Million, Barnes & Noble, or CBD.

BUT FOR TODAY’S RELEASE,
Fraying at the Edge
Family, community, faith, and love. These quilt blocks sewn together made Ariana’s beautiful life.
When they are pulled to pieces, will anything familiar remain?

Ten-year anniversary!
This is my ten-year anniversary with WaterBrook Press, an imprint of Random House. Has ten years really passed since my debut novel, When the Heart Cries, released? It doesn’t seem like it, and I know I’ve expressed this before, but YOU, my wonderful reader friends, have been the BEST at helping me get the word out to others about each new book release. There is no way for me to THANK you enough for that!
If you have a few moments to help get the word out again, I would GREATLY appreciate it, and I’ve prepared two simple ways you can do that—either by clicking Share while on my blog or through clicking Share while on my Facebook page. (Specific how-to info is below the picture of the wall hanging.)
To help make it fun and as a thank-you for your time and effort, I’m offering a chance to win an autographed copy of Ties That Bind and Fraying at the Edge, as well as the Amish-made quilt seen below. One participant will win all three items.
This beautiful Amish-made wall quilt is approximately 86 inches by 100 inches. In this picture, it’s on a full-sized bed, but it would also fit Queen bed and, depending how you’d want the sides to fall, a King.
To share while on my blog, just scroll down until you see several icons that look like the following images, and then click on one and follow any given instructions.
OR you can hop over to my Facebook page and click Share on the Fraying at the Edge Release Day post that is pinned to the top of my Facebook page.
After you’ve shared, be sure to leave a comment on my blog, under the words “Leave a Reply” or on my Facebook page. If sharing on Facebook, be sure to go to the Fraying at the Edge Release Day post. Leaving a comment on either page lets me know you’ve participated. *WordPress may not immediately show your comment on my blog, but I will see it and approve it ASAP and then it will post/show in the comments. https://www.cindywoodsmall.com/2016/08/13/fraying-at-the-edge-is-out-now/
There is no better way for word about a book to get out to the masses than for readers to let others know about the book. Thank you so much!
Today is August 16, and the giveaway ends Thursday, August 25 at noon Eastern.
