On Friday, September 6th, at noon, I'll put all the names into my book bag and pull out a winner! The books will be sent to you directly from the publisher.
Jane's books are all good, emotion, family driven stories of decisions to be made on a daily basis - with reality based issues. The fact that these novel draw from three sister's stories/lives and how they support each other makes it special. The youngest sister's story is now available!

In The Good Daughter (Berkley, February 2013), she explored the life of school teacher Kit Brennan, the second oldest of the five Brennan kids.

Meg Roberts is the eldest of the Brennan
sisters and she is used to being in control and presenting an image of
perfection to those around her. But
Meg’s life isn’t perfect and lately it’s been feeling out of control as well. As she approaches 43 and reflects on her 17
years of marriage, Meg realizes she wants more out of life. More love, more passion, more something. She embarks on an affair that shatters her
world and her family relationships. Meg
is forced to come to terms with the person she was, and who she has become, as
well as learning that happiness isn’t something she has to chase, but rather a
choice she must make for herself.
THE
GOOD DAUGHTER
(Berkley Trade Paperback Original; 978-0-425-25342-7;
February 5, 2013; $15)
Kit Brennan has played it safe her
entire life, but as a single thirty-eight year old English teacher at a
Catholic high school in Oakland,
her life hasn’t turned out as she planned.
Her ten-year relationship ended six months ago and Kit has now come to
the realization that she may be better off pursuing her dreams without a man
involved. But when the mysterious,
dangerous Jude Knight enters the picture, Kit begins to question who she’s
become and who she should be. Does she
dare to follow her desires? With one of
her teenage students in crisis and her family’s burdens weighing heavily on her
mind and heart, is Kit ready to risk everything by taking a chance at the
unknown?
THE
GOOD WIFE
(Berkley Trade Paperback Original;
978-0-425-25367-0; September 3, 2013; $15)
Sarah’s love for her husband, professional
baseball player Boone Walker, is bottomless—so much so that her sisters say it
will end up hurting her. While Sarah
stays home and cares for their two children, Boone travels almost year-round. Living apart most of the time makes life
difficult, especially since Sarah often wonders whether Boone is sharing his
bed with other women on the road, even though he swears he’s been true to her
since his infidelity three years ago.
Now, with Boone facing yet another career change, tension rises between
the two, and the emotionally exhausted Sarah must choose whether to break free
from the past and forgive Boone completely, or leave him behind and start
anew.
