Hi everyone! I’m so excited to share this fun giveaway to celebrate the one-month countdown to publication of my third novel, Blackberry Winter. As you know, this is a very special and meaningful story to me, and I have never been more excited to send a book out into the world as I am right now.
So, would you like to win this lovely blackberry-themed gift box? It contains:
*A signed copy of Blackberry Winter
*A special note from the author (moi!)
*A jar of wild Northwest blackberry honey
*A container of blackberry sage tea
*A bottle of Lavanila Vanilla Blackberry Perfume (it is the most beautiful scent ever!)
How to enter? Simply leave a comment below! I’ll count shares via Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or your blog as an extra entry (just be sure to leave a separate comment for each time you share via a separate channel so you’ll get the extra entries). The week before publication day (the book comes out on 9/25), I will choose a winner at random, and send the lucky person this box of blackberry bliss.
In the meantime, I would be so, so, so excited if you pre-ordered a copy at your favorite independent bookstore, or online at Amazon or Barnes & Noble. (And if you win an extra copy, you can always give it to your favorite girlfriend, mom, grandma, babysitter, teacher or aunt as a gift, and keep all the other goodies for yourself!) 
Curious about the story? You can see the amazing things REAL SIMPLE had to say about the novel here, watch the book trailer here, learn more about the book here, and watch a really goofy video of me talking about my adventures in blackberry-pie-baking.
Oh, also, I have a few remaining pre-publication galleys left, and I may just choose a few additional people here to share those with!
Thank you for entering, and for your interest in Blackberry Winter!

I read your previous to books and I can not wait to read Blackberry Winter. Anxiously waiting. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
This is such a fun little gift set! Lavanila Vanilla Blackberry Perfume? Oh my gosh, sounds amazing. :D
I'm reading a book you recommended, Bridge of Scarlet Leaves (love it!) and will be finished just in time to start your new one. Can't wait! By the way, I always am excited to read your new blog posts. They really bring extra cheer to my day!
Love this contest! As you know, I've been 'repping' you since I first read Violets. Cannot wait for Blackberry Winter and what follows...please consider me for this amazing gift package, although I'll probably order my own copy anyway, lol :-D
I love all your books and think you are a great writer. I can't wait for your next novel to come out! I also would love to win this great gift set. Thanks :D
I would love, love, LOVE to win this book. Either way though, I definitely plan on purchasing it. I LOVED both "Violets of March" and "The Bungalow". Thanks!!!
Wow Sarah, what a giveaway! Would love the giftbox or to help pre-read/review your book! Can you sell your giftbox? well if we aren't the winner? That would be so delicious! Can you tell I'm hungry? and always hungry for more reading...LOL!
I have read your 2 Previous books already and you're my favorite author by far! I wish you can write and publish faster!!! I read both of your books in one day because I couldn't put them down!!!! This is so nice of you to have such a wonderful giveaway and who ever will win is very lucky!!! Your biggest fan!! -Juline
I am entering for my mom! A friend recommended Violets of March to me, and I bought it and my mom read it before me and really enjoyed it. So soon after I got her The Bungalow and she liked that even more! She would be thrilled with Blackberry Winter! She is retiring soon and will have lots of time to read...something like this would make her day. Thank you for the wonderful books, Sarah! :)
My friend Juline introduced me to your books and I have come to love them and your style of writing. I look forward to reading Blackberry Winter this fall and to all your books to come! Thank you- Samantha
Love your books sarah. Can't wait to read this one. Thanks for the fantastic giveaway. Love blackberries and think the honey would be great.
What a terrific idea this is! My daughter and I are looking forward to reading another book written by you. As long as you keep writing we will keep reading them.
I have truly enjoyed your other books and am looking forward to this one. Thank you for the giveaway!
I would love to win this gift basket. I collect signed, first edition books of my favorite authors and would love to add this to my collection. Thank you for the opportunity.
What a lovely and generous gift. I would love to win your new book as well as the other "goodies" in the basket
I love your books and I love how personable you are with your fans!! :) Fingers crossed that I win! :)
I am really looking forward to your next book and I love that you are writing a new book on a houseboat. Fun!!
Your 1st book, The Violets of March, rekindled my love of reading, so I immediately picked up The Bungalow & loved it just as much! Am eagerly waiting for Blackberry Winter!
