Blogiversary Giveaway #16: Win a copy of Bitter Fruits & The Little Flower Shop by the Sea

Today's blogiversary prize has been very generously donated by guest reviewer Louise who has obviously put a lot of thought into what she wanted to offer.  Using the traditional theme of what gifts to give for anniversaries, she has offered a copy of Bitter Fruits by Alice Clark-Platts and The Little Flower Shop by the Sea by Ali McNamara as the 4th anniversary theme is Fruit & Flowers.

The murder of a first-year university student shocks the city of Durham. The victim, Emily Brabents, was from the privileged and popular set at Joyce College, a cradle for the country's future elite.

As Detective Inspector Erica Martin investigates the college, she finds a close-knit community fuelled by jealousy, obsession and secrets. But the very last thing she expects is an instant confession . . .
The picture of Emily that begins to emerge is that of a girl wanted by everyone, but not truly known by anyone. Anyone, that is, except Daniel Shepherd. Her fellow student, ever-faithful friend and the only one who cares. The only one who would do anything for her.

The blossom is out in the little Cornish harbour town of St Felix

But Poppy Carmichael's spirits aren't lifted by the pretty West Country spring. Inheriting her grandmother's flower shop has forced her to return to Cornwall, a place that holds too many memories.

Poppy is determined to do her best for the sake of her adored grandmother, but she struggles with the responsibility of the more-shabby-than-chic shop. And with the added complication of Jake, the gruff but gorgeous local flower grower, Poppy is very tempted to run away...

The pretty little town has a few surprises in store for Poppy. With new friends to help her and romance blooming, it's time for Poppy to open her heart to St Felix and to the special magic of a little flower shop by the sea! 

The winner will be selected via Rafflecopter when the giveaway ends and contacted for their address for me to pass onto Louise who is going to order the books to be sent to you direct via Amazon or The Book Depository.
