Oh, I've been meaning to try that author, Kari. I just grabbed that book - since the title and synopsis are so great - even though I has the short story Apples Should Be Red by Penny Watson.

BTW, updated you. :o)

Thanks, awesome pic! I think you'll like this book, LK. Both the hero and heroine are great. The author has a short freebie epilogue on her website, really sweet. Here's the info so you can check it out when you finish the book (link to epilogue is on the blurb): Lumberjack Epilogue Christmas Edition by Penny Watson

*~His.Southern.Wife.~* (hissouthernwife) | 9 comments I'm not sure if this short of a book counts, but I finished the novella _Lumberjack in Love_ by Penny Watson, which has a winter scene on the cover of the version I got for Kindle.
(I don't know how y'all link/show the books' covers in posts.)
I wrote a short review on my completed books page, but basically, I liked it, it was sweet & lighthearted, but they just moved too fast into the hot & steamy, IMO, for such a brand new relationship & considering all the other stuff they were dealing with, from previous relations.


message 77: by Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 21897 comments ~His.Southern.Wife~, I'll update you... but here is how to add a bookcover. I won't put it under a spoiler, in case you're on an alternate media.

BTW, I liked your review.

Lumberjack in Love by Penny Watson

~ How to Add a Bookcover Link ~

� Click on the "add book/author link above the text box which you're typing in for the discussion.

� Notice a search box or “look-up� opens up and at the bottom the words
                                   add: � link 〇cover
The little blue dot is will always first default to link unless you click on cover.

� Type in the title you of the book you desire, and click "search".

� Click on the "add" button next to the option you want to include and the html for the cover will appear in your text box.

� Make sure that "cover" is chosen before you click the big �search� button, but if you forget, you can always put your cursor after the word “book� and before the colon: in the link, type in "cover" and the bookcover will appear.

I'll put an asterisk* in the code so you can see the book numbers are the same:

[*book:Through a Dark Mist|7776013]
[*bookcover:Through a Dark Mist|7776013]


Results :

Through a Dark Mist = link

Through a Dark Mist by Marsha Canham = bookcover link

� If the bookcover that appears is not the one you want, simply click on "other editions" right under the add button. Page numbers are at the bottom of the "look-up". Browse until you find the cover you desire.

� Do a preview, if you like. Just click (preview) in parentheses in light grey to the right of the big post button.

Hope this helps!
