Alison Caiola is sharing FIVE copies of The Seeds of a Daisy with some lucky readers anywhere in the world!

The Seeds of a Daisy is a 2013 "Indie Excellence Award for Chick Lit" Finalist.

From the outside looking in, Lily Lockwood, popular star of the hit TV show St. Joe’s, has it all. Recently nominated for an Emmy, her star is definitely on the rise. She shares her gorgeous Malibu beachfront home with her even more gorgeous actor boyfriend. Perfect, right? Not so much! Within a matter of just a few days, it all falls apart. The wind is knocked out of her when she finds out that her boyfriend, on location shooting a western, is riding horses all day and his curvy co-star all night. Before Lily can catch her breath, she gets word that her mother, best-selling author Daisy Lockwood, is in intensive care after a near-fatal accident. Lily flies across the country to be by her side. The girl, who has a hard time deciding if her Chai Latte should be Grande or Venti, is now faced with making crucial life and death decisions. While rifling through Daisy’s papers, she comes across shocking information about her mother that threatens to shake her very foundation. Lily embarks on a journey of self-discovery and closure as she seeks to unlock the mysteries of her mother’s past. (Synopsis courtesy of Amazon.com)

  1. One of my favorite films that was made based on a TV show was The Flintstones. I love that movie and I watch it whenever I see it on. I also grew up watching the cartoon plus the show where the Flintstones were toddlers.

  20. I am sorry, but my Brady days are going to come right out with this question - I am a Brad-mania and loved it when the two Brady movies came out in the 1990s. They were too funny.

    Of course the adult in me says.....Sex in the City - loved the TV show and both movies!

    Thanks for the great giveaway.

  25. My favorite movie based on a TV show isn't based on the entire show Saturday Night Live, but rather on a recurring skit. The skit; "The Roxbury Guys," the movie; "A Night at the Roxbury."
    That movie makes me laugh until I cry EVERY TIME I see it. I know it's cheesy, but it's too funny!
