A Promise to Jake

When a mysterious package arrives shortly before Christmas, a wealthy author is forced to remember what's truly important about the holy day…and about life. With more than 4,500,000 books in circulation, best-selling author Loree Lough's titles have earned numerous 4- and 5-star reviews and industry awards. She splits her time between her home in Baltimore and a cabin in the Alleghenies (where she loves to show off her "Identify the Critter Tracks" skills). With the February, 2014 release of Guarding Alyssa (#3 in the "A Child to Love" series for Harlequin's new Heartwarming line), Loree will have 100 books in print, including reader favorites like The First Responders series, For Love of Eli, and Love Finds You in Folly Beach, South Carolina. Loree loves to hear from her readers and answers every letter, personally. Visit her at Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and www.loreelough.com.
