Barnes & Noble Announces Twelve Days from Teresa Hill's The McRaes Series As the Latest Spotlight Pick
NOOKBookstore™Will Offer Twelve Days for Only 99 Cents for a Limited Time
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Barnes & Noble, Inc. (NYS: BKS) , the leading retailer of content, digital media and educational products, today announced that Twelve Days from Teresa Hill's The McRaes series will be featured as the latest pick for "Barnes & Noble Spotlight" (www.bn.com/spotlight), a NOOK Book™ program that features great writers at irresistible prices. Twice a month, Barnes & Noble Spotlight picks an author of a popular or breakout series from various genres and offers one of their titles at a special price, helping NOOK® readers discover new authors and dive into an exciting series for a wallet-friendly price. From October 6 through October 19, Barnes & Noble's NOOK Bookstore will offer Twelve Days from the bestselling The McRaes series for only 99 cents.
Twelve days before Christmas, Rachel McRae opens her front door and a social worker puts a baby in her arms—one who comes with a four-year-old boy and an eleven-year-old girl—siblings abandoned and in need of a temporary home. Rachel and her husband, Sam, have long dreamed of a house filled with children, but that dream that has led them to repeated heartbreak. Now, as their marriage hangs in the balance, Rachel and Sam reluctantly take the children in, but just until after Christmas. They will do their best not to fall in love with them, and not to get their hopes up that this time a miracle will happen.
Teresa Hill is the USA Today bestselling author of The McRae series. Critically acclaimed for her contemporary romance novels, Teresa has been nominated three times for the prestigious Romance Writers of America RITA Award.
