This week, The Borrowed Book is drawing THREE winners. Winners receive THEIR CHOICE of three great books:


Polly Dent Loses Grip by S. Dionne Moore ~ Polly Dent loses grip on the treadmill and takes a fatal spill that’s ruled an accident. Helping her mother-in-law move into Bridgeton Towers Assisted Living, but the scars from LaTisha Barnhart’s surgically removed bunions tell her something’s afoot. The residents’ gossip is revealing all kinds of motives for murder. Gertrude Herrman is out looking for love in the form of Thomas Philcher’s fat wallet, and Polly’s fall eliminates her competition once and for all. Otis Payne, the venerable director of Bridgeton Towers, is over a barrel when his wife demands cash, or she’ll carry on without him. Mitzi Mullins’s penchant for rhyme puts her in direct line as perpetrator of the crime, and Sue Mie’s mistake seals Polly’s fate.


Promise of Tomorrow by S. Dionne Moore ~ Johnston , PA, 1889. Jack Kelly is struggling to quell the demons of poverty he has known all his life and live down his father's drunken legacy. This ambition drives him to invent a better method of turning iron ore into steel, to guarantee himself andhis fiance a financially secure future.
Alaina Morrison, raised by her embittered mother to distrust all men,must choose between Jack, or becoming the self-sufficient woman her mother has pushed her to become.
Jack's commitment to prove himself blinds him to Alaina's needs. She walks away from their engagement. But when the storm of angry floodwaters tears apart the town, will they survive to see the promise of tomorrow?

Murder on the Ol' Bunions by S. Dionne Moore ~ LaTisha Barnhart’s bunions tell her something’s afoot as she delves deeper into the murder of her former employee, Marion Peters. When LaTisha becomes a suspect, the ante is upped, and she is determined to clear her name and find the culprit.

She’s burping Mark Hamm’s bad cooking to investigate his beef with Marion. . .getting her hair styled at a high falutin’ beauty parlor to see what has Regina Rogane in a snarl. . .playing self-appointed matchmaker between the local chief and a prime suspect. . .and thinking Payton O’Mahney’s music store lease might be the reason he’s singing out of tune when discussion of Marion’s murder arises. LaTisha’s thinking she just might use the reward money to get her bunions surgically removed. But she’s got to catch the crook first.

Winners will be announced on Saturday, 08/21/10.
