I sent out a newsletter to subscribers this evening, but I wanted to make certain my blog readers had this information as well. Sometimes my subscribers get special offers just for them, so if you'd like to subscribe to my newsletter, go here and follow the instructions.
Dear Friends and Fellow Readers:
I'm delighted to announce a couple of specials for eight of my novels.
First, beginning on Tuesday, June 26th, through Saturday, June 30th, my WWII set novel, THE VICTORY CLUB, will be free on Amazon for the Kindle. Don't miss out and please tell your friends. (Sorry. This offer doesn't extend to the Nook.)
I wrote THE VICTORY CLUB as my way of saying thanks to the men and women who wait on the homefront while their loved ones are serving overseas. About this book, Publisher's Weekly said:
"Hatcher includes V-mail and news clippings to good effect, making this novel's wartime setting believable without resorting to cliche. She is not afraid to leave some of her characters unredeemed, and in contrast to much of the sentimental Christian fiction geared toward women, this novel embraces complexity rather than eschewing it. A well-paced and genuinely suspenseful plot plus Hatcher's pleasingly smooth prose make this novel a delight."
Second, Zondervan is running an ebook sale for seven of my novels, and the sale began today. The ebooks are on sale for $2.99 each. These are stories you don't want to miss (and even if you've read them in paperback, you might want to add them to your ereader at this LOW price). Several of these books rank among the novels most often named as a reader's favorite Robin Lee Hatcher book.
The ebooks are available at this price for both the Kindle and the Nook (see links below each title). They can also be found at ChristianBook.com. Remember, you don't need to own an ebook reader to read digital books. You can find the Kindle app, the Nook app, and/or the CBDReader app for your computer, smartphone, and/or tablet device.
Here's some information about the sale titles:
THE FORGIVING HOUR (regularly $9.99)
"Every once in a while a book comes along that challenges your thinking, changes your perspective, yet entertains and satisfies you at the same time. THE FORGIVING HOUR is such a book … Popular historical author Robin Lee Hatcher debuts on the inspirational scene with an amazing book, clearly blazing her own way and setting her own fine standards with a life-changing book that readers will read over and over again." — RT Book Review (Top Pick & 4 1/2 Gold rating)
"Readers won't be able to put down this novel. Its theme is adultery -- not just the betrayal but the lasting effects and the need for restoration. Hatcher's entertaining story uses biblical principles to show how 'real' people can survive, and truly recover from, the devastation of adultery. The book contains wisdom and enough heart to make it worthwhile reading for every woman, including those who've experienced or caused adultery's pain." — CBA Marketplace
WHISPERS FROM YESTERDAY (regularly $9.99)
RITA Award finalist
Christy Award winner
"Robin's books touch the heart and soul." — Moody Magazine
"When rich young Karen is suddenly left penniless and alone, she stays with a grandmother she never knew she had. Grandma Sophia has been praying for a chance to correct past mistakes, and Karen's arrival provides just such an opportunity. Through her grandmother's helper, some troubled juveniles, and the diaries of Sophia's sister, Karen learns about herself, the Lord, and how to turn her life around. This engrossing book has a well-developed plot and believable characters." — CBA Marketplace
THE SHEPHERD'S VOICE (regularly $9.99)
RITA Award winner
"Capturing the essence of the early 1930s, author Robin Lee Hatcher crafts an endearing story about a young shepherdess who rescues a wayward soul in her latest work, THE SHEPHERD'S VOICE … To Hatcher's credit, the reader not only gets a strong sense of the Depression era's severity, but in contrast, an impression of a woman of faith who persists in believing against all odds. This is a romance rooted more in earthly realities than fairy tale fantasies, as trials come to test the faith of both Akira and Gabriel, with injustices of the past beginning to arise and Gabriel facing possible imprisonment once again. Hatcher has a real warmth in her writing style and the relationship between the characters comes across as natural and honest, rather than contrived and superficial. There is an authentic luster to the story, which gives the reader a genuine feeling, together with a plot that is suspenseful enough to keep the pages turning until the very end." — Christian Retailing
"Hatcher did a remarkable job with this book. I was grabbed by the first word and left with a wonderful feeling inside when I read the last word. This book helped to remind me that with Christ all things are possible." — Romance Reader's Connection
THE COMING TO AMERICA SERIES (regularly $4.99 each)
In the spring of 1897, three young women (from England, Sweden, and Ireland) and one young man (from Germany) set sail for America to start new lives. Friendships are forged before they pass through Ellis Island (a glimpse of that experience is shared in the prologues of each book). The stories told in the four books of the Coming to America series follow these four characters to the wide open plains of Montana, to a small Swedish community in Iowa, to the silver mining district in Northern Idaho, and to the high desert farmlands of Eastern Idaho.

Hi, Robin. I've been wanting to read "The Forgiving Hour." I do have a Kindle, but I opted to order a paper copy of the book. :)

Thanks, Susan. Of course, buying a paper copy means you had to buy a used one. Hope it's in good condition.
