Book Giving Day: Win a copy of Blueprints by Barbara Delinsky, Jihadi by Yusuf Toropov or Fix You by Carrie Elks

Apparently today as well as being Valentine's Day, which in my opinion is too commercialised these days, is International Book Giving Day which is definitely more to my liking... I mean who doesn't love to give and receive books.

I have recently received a second copy of Blueprints by Barbara Delinsky which I will be reviewing later this month and had originally planned to run the giveaway alongside my review but I have decided to include the book as one of the choices the winner of this giveaway can pick.  


Jamie MacAfee's life is almost perfect. She loves her fiancee, even if she hasn't quite worked out why she won't set a wedding date and she certainly adores her job, working as an architect on their family home renovation show. Meanwhile, her beloved mother Caroline has built up her confidence after a painful divorce, working closely alongside her daughter as the very successful host of Gut It!. Everything is going to plan, until the lives of both women are changed overnight. 

When the TV network plan to replace Caroline with Jamie as the show's host, Caroline is left feeling horribly betrayed - and old in the eyes of the world. Then tragedy strikes, leaving Jamie guardian to her small orphaned step-brother and fiancee to a man who doesn't want the child. 

As the blueprints they've built their lives around go up in flames, loyalties shift and new relationships tempt. Jamie and Caroline must decide what they really want - and discover where their future lies...

You've found the one, but what if life has other plans?

London, 31st December 1999
At a party to toast the new millennium, Hanna meets Richard. He is a gorgeous, wealthy New Yorker. She is a self-assured, beautiful Londoner with no interest in clean-cut American men. They are from different worlds and have nothing in common... except for their instant - and mutual - attraction to one another.As the clocks chime midnight it is a new year and the beginning of a wonderful romance.

New York, 12th May 2012
Hanna, the girl who broke Richard's heart, walks into his Wall Street office - and back into his life - to reveal an explosive secret.

He was sure they were meant to be together forever, but she broke his heart so completely the last time, can he find a way to let her mend the pieces?
