Is it possible in such a short amount of time… say the time it takes to read a book, that you can fall in love with the scenery… the musical flow of the words? Yes. It is possible. ~ Sheila
My first ever Book Tour!!!
A Will To Love is the story of Benton Jessup, a widower who is still mourning the loss of his wife Carla, to cancer the previous year. Together Carla and Benton had ran a Bed and Breakfast, and now Benton is left only with his memories and the work of trying to make the Bed and Breakfast a success.
When Kitty Beebe comes to stay, with plans to write a book based around the beautiful area around the Bed and Breakfast, Benton thinks this may be just the ticket to draw people to the Inn. A fast friendship develops between Benton and Kitty and causes Benton to rethink who he is.
This book is a quick read that tugs at your heart. It is about hope and dreams, past hauntings, and new beginnings. I enjoyed the characters and the great setting of this book.

Red Rose Publishing offers a Southern Drink after a Southern Book:
Aunt Tillie’s Sweet Tea
Ingredients
3 Family size tea bags
2 Cups of cold water
1 Cup of sugar
Directions
We in the south make the best iced tea you’ll find.
Maybe it’s how it’s done, or maybe it is the water
in the south, or maybe it’s just that
a southern belle has put a lot of TLC
into making the tea. Who knows!
We recommend Luzianne Tea Bags if available.
Place the two cups water in a pot and add the tea bags.
Bring to a boil, do not continue boiling.
Remove from heat and let steep.
Pour warm tea into empty pitcher.
Add the sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Fill remaining pitcher with cold water.
Optional – some women say they use less water and add ice to the tea.
*This book came to me as a E book to me from Dorothy Thompson of Pump up Your Book Promotion
I rate this book PG13 for some mild nudity
Book Journey 
I just might look into this — on my personal blog I mention a wonderful B&B we stayed at this past weekend. Loved it and the hosts! I think the whole idea of B&B’s are romantic.
Congrats on your first tour. I am doing my first tour with a giveaway August 11th, it is for Dark Hunger. I am reading it right now and love it! 🙂
Mmmm Sweet Tea! Who would have thought it was that easy. For some reason, it always tastes better in the south
This sounds like a good book. I’ve only stayed in B&Bs on my vacations in Ireland. A wonderful way to meet people. I’ve added this title to my wish list. I hadn’t heard of it before. I also copied your sweet tea recipe, thanks! I live in the north and have only read about sweet tea, lol. I’ll give it a try.
Thanks for the comment on my review today.
Ok, so while looking around your blog a bit, I’ve figured out you live in the north as well. And the recipe is probably from the book. I need to do what I always told my kids when they were young, slow down when you’re reading!! At any rate, I like your blog and will follow it in google reader.
LOL Mary – yup – I am a Northern girl. Thanks for reading my blog…. I have a lot of fun with it and so enjoy the comments and meeting fellow book bloggers. 🙂
Thanks for hosting me here today!
This sounds like a good one! Congrats on your first tour! 🙂
Thanks Julie! I am very happy to be promoting my first romance. It will not be the last!
