Spotlight and Giveaway: Very Sincerely Yours

Introduction by Melissa Amster

I love Kerry Winfrey's rom com novels. Both Waiting for Tom Hanks and Not Like the Movies were on my favorites lists for the past two years. Somehow I was late to the game with hearing about her latest, Very Sincerely Yours, but I was thrilled to get my hands on a digital copy and have added it to my Kindle queue. I am very excited to read it soon! The cover is so cute too. Thanks to Berkley, we have one print copy for a lucky reader!

Teddy Phillips never thought she would still be spending every day surrounded by toys at almost thirty years old. But working at a vintage toy store is pretty much all she has going on in her life after being unceremoniously dumped by her longtime boyfriend. The one joy that she has kept is her not-so-guilty pleasure: Everett’s Place, a local children’s show hosted by Everett St. James, a man whom Teddy finds very soothing . . . and, okay, cute.

Teddy finds the courage to write to him, feeling slightly like one of the children who write to him on his show. He always gives sound advice and seems like he has everything figured out—and he pretty much does: Everett has a great support system, wonderful friends, and his dream job. But there is still that persistent feeling in the back of his mind that something is missing.

When a woman named Theodora starts writing to Everett, he is drawn to her honesty and vulnerability. They continue writing to each other, all the while living their lives without meeting. When their worlds collide, however, they must both let go of their fears and figure out what they truly want—and if the future they want includes each other.

When I was a child, my favorite toy was my American Girl doll - Molly. It was the first purchase I worked hard to make happen. My family (Mom and Grandmothers and I all worked together to purchase it). I was so proud and I still have it today.

I spent a lot of time alone as a child. Especially in the summer when my neighbourhood kids would all go to their farms or cottages for the whole summer. All I had was my Barbies and my baby doll. I had the Barbie accessories like camper, corvette, dune buggy with tent trailer... and then I made my own furniture out of cloth and boxes.
