It Had To Be You by Jill Shalvis Giveaway!

June 13, 2013 by Mandi 47 Comments

ithadtobeyou

Blurb:  Ali Winters is not having a good day. Her boyfriend left her, everyone in town thinks she’s a thief, and now she’s about to be kicked out of her home. Her only shot at keeping a roof over her head and clearing her name is to beg for help from a police detective who’s as sexy as he is stern….

After a high-profile case goes wrong, Luke Hanover returns to his hometown for some peace and quiet. Instead he finds a bombshell brunette in a heap of trouble. As he helps Ali put her world back together, the pieces of Luke’s own life finally seem to fall into place. Is this the start of a sizzling fling? Or are Luke and Ali on the brink of something big in a little town called Lucky Harbor?

I recently read this and it’s really cute. Luke is a broody, sexy hero who meets Ali who has been wrongly accused of stealing money from her ex. You can read my review here.

To celebrate the release, Jill Shalvis is giving away FIVE copies of this book to random commenters. The winners can choose print or digital. Open to everyone through June 14. I’ll pick winners on Saturday.

Find Jill at her website, twitter and facebook.
