It's time to celebrate Christmas with a Tea Party to to celebrate a December new releases by Colonial Quills team member, Shannon McNear. Welcome Friends!
~*~*~*~
December 1 marks the release of Shannon McNear's first Civil War novel, The Rebel Bride, #10 of the
Daughters of the Mayflower. From the back cover:
In the clash between Union and Confederacy, Tennessee farm girl Pearl MacFarlane is compelled to help care for Yankee wounded, but determines to remain unmoved by their cause—until she faces the silent struggle of Union soldier Joshua Wheeler, a recent amputee.
This story is set September-November 1863, against the backdrop of the Battles of Chickamauga and Chattanooga in southern Tennessee. As a side note--Pearl is granddaughter to Kate and Thomas from The Cumberland Bride, and Josh is grandson to Sally and Sam from The Highwayman (from The Most Eligible Bachelor Collection.) It was fun to work in hints of the connection!
About Shannon: Transplanted to North Dakota after more than two decades in the Deep South, Shannon McNear loves losing herself in local history. As the author of four novellas and three full-length novels, with her first novella, Defending Truth in A Pioneer Christmas Collection, a 2014 RITA® finalist, her greatest joy is in being a military wife, mom of eight, mother-in-law of three, and grammie of three. She’s also a contributor to Colonial Quills and a member of ACFW and RWA. When not sewing, researching, or leaking story from her fingertips, she enjoys being outdoors, basking in the beauty of the northern prairies.
GIVEAWAY! One signed copy of The Rebel Bride! Please comment if you're interested in winning this title to be entered. ❤

Virginia, December 1864

Good morning, gentle readers! It's chilly and still dark here on the northern plains, but I am here, stoking the fire on the hearth, setting water for tea and coffee, arranging Christmas cookies and slices of a lovely fruited spice cake on platters, setting out sugar and creamer. What might be your pleasure today?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new release, Shannon! I'll have a little bit of everything! And I'm making some colonial shrimp sandwiches for high tea right now!
DeleteOh, that sounds delightful! I'm bringing in a batch of tiny scones for late afternoon. :-)
DeleteAnd, thank you so much!!
Congratulations Shannon on your release! A cup of tea and a Christmas cookie sounds perfect.
DeleteBlessings,Tina
Good morning! We are having a snow day. Perfect day for reading! Congratulations on your new book release. All of these books look fabulous. :)
ReplyDeleteSnow, oh yes! Definitely a day to read and be cozy. :-) Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by!
DeleteBeen a lot of those snowy days already this December! Welcome, Susanne. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteGood morning ladies! I would love a copy of The Rebel Bride.
ReplyDeleteShannon, I am curious how the transition from the Deep South to North Dakota has gone?! Living in SC, i can’t imagine moving to ND!
Naomi, I would love a copy of Mist O’er the Voyageur. I love historical fiction.
pattymh2000(at)yahoo(dot)com
Thank you so much, Patty! Where are you in SC, if I might ask? We lived in the Charleston area (it was my husband's first and only duty station in the AF) but we were from Missouri and Illinois and remembered what real winters were like. It was an adjustment for our poor Southern children, for sure! Learning (and re-learning, for me) how to drive in snow, understanding the seriousness of deep cold, coping with long winters--those were the main things. We love it, though! Such gorgeous summers!! I do not miss the heat/humidity nor the bugs. :-D (I do, however, miss my oldest boys and their families, who still live there!)
DeleteI've so enjoyed The Mayflower Brides series that I've suggested a couple of ideas for new brides. One of them was The Nantucket Bride!
DeleteThat sounds intriguing, Joy! What timeframe would that be?
DeleteI'll enter you in the drawing, Patty. Sounds like you're in a green Christmas locale. My son is in NC, but I'm up here in the frozen north of WI.
DeleteA lot of great stories described here. I haven’t read any of them yet and they all sound fascinating. I’d love the opportunity to own any of them. The Colonial era is quite intriguing-I’m just dipping my toes into this era for my personal reading.
ReplyDeletettmom42 at gmail dot com
P.S. sheep are adorable
Thank you so much for stopping by! Might I bring you a cup of tea or coffee?
DeleteAnd any of these stories would be wonderful! ❤
So glad you could stop by, Terressa. I agree, there are some fascinating books being featured today.
DeleteI see your sheep comment! And, yes, they are adorable. Most of the time. ;)
DeleteIt's a wonderful era. So rich and abounding in stories. Thanks for joining us.
DeleteGood morning! These stories look lovely! We have a nor'easter blowing in later today. I'm enjoying a cup of coffee at my keyboard, writing to my heart's content! Thank you for hosting this giveaway!
ReplyDeleteCoffee is definitely the thing for a morning like this! We're so glad to have you! (And enjoy the writing--I'm doing the same in between visitors.)
DeleteGood morning everyone! I'm sitting by the window watching the rain pour down here in North Carolina. I'm considering another cup of coffee and wishing I had some gingerbread cookies! Thanks for stopping by and please share our Tea Party with other friends who might like to join us.
ReplyDelete**hands Jennifer a fresh, steaming cup of coffee, with a pair of gingerbread cookies balanced on the edge of the blue delft saucer** Virtual treats are always available! Stay warm and dry today. :-)
DeleteI haven't read any of these - my to-read list just got longer!
ReplyDeleteHaha, yes! I am in such wonderful company here. Blessings, and thank you for stopping in!
DeleteGlad you could come by, Stacey.
DeleteI'm glad you stopped by. We love over-flowing people's TBR list! Haha!
DeleteI would love to read The Rebel Bride and all the others. Just found your blog and so excited.
ReplyDeleteOh, we're so glad to have you!!
DeleteSo glad you could join us, Saundra.
DeleteYay! Glad you found us. You're entered. Merry Christmas!

ReplyDeleteGlad you could join us, Becky! And yes, so many good stories to choose from!

DeleteA Christmas tea party February 17th? Interesting choice of dates, as that is the day after my b-day!
ReplyDeleteFebruary, or December? Either way, happy birthday!! ❤😊
DeleteWOW! Amazing Authors with Fantastic Reads! ALL wonderful giveaways! I am looking forward to the party!
ReplyDeleteWe're so glad to have you, Wendy! ❤
DeleteWe're so glad you could join us, Wendy.
DeleteThank you, Wendy! Joyous Christmas to you!
DeleteGood afternoon Shannon and you ladies so glad to join you today in the Tea Party! I would just love to read the rebel bride! I have just so enjoyed the bride series and all the author's books that I have read so far! I have a friend who lives in North Dakota actually I believe it's is Alexander up there he and his wife and his son live up there he's a wonderful Christian brother. All the new releases looks so good this winter and for early this coming year it's just amazing the amount of books that are out and I just an adoring the covers! I can't wait for the coming new year!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!
Blessings

Hi Linda! The Rebel Bride is Shannon's brand new release! Merry Christmas. Would you like some sugar cookies and some Christmas tea?
DeleteGood to have you, Linda! I looked that up and yes, there is an Alexander, way over on the other side of the state! Beautiful area, but then, I love all of ND. (It took me a while to get used to the distances out here in the West. Very different from the East coast!)
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteThank you for the cookies and tea Carrie and thank you for a lovely win!
DeleteI think I would love wide open spaces unless it comes with wind and bitter cold
and tons of snow. Living in Central NY we get snow and cold for sure but the wind
is usually not more then 40 to 60 mph if that, its rather calm most days.
Blessings
Linda Marie
Thank you Debra E Marvin for the win of your book Cameo Courtships! I am so super thrilled that you live only 1/2 hour from me here in New York! What a surprize! When the weather is nicer we should get together sometime for real tea!!! I am still unpacking but I will venture to Sauders sometime in the future, I just love that store! I am still unpacking and decorating for the Holidays!
DeleteBlessings
Linda Marie Finn
Congratulations ladies on all these wonderful books! I have had the privilege to read a number of them and would highly recommend taking the opportunity to enter the giveaways. I don’t believe I have read any by you, Jennifer and certainly would love to be entered. The collections mentioned all sound simply wonderful and I would love to have the chance to read them as well - looking forward to reading about Peggy’s sheep....lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for all the giveaways. I would love to have a cup of Christmas Tea and just relax for a few minutes before the hustle and bustle of life once again finds me.
Hi Betti! How's the weather in Florida? I've got all manner of wonderful tea here including four different kinds of Christmas tea! Let me pour you a cup right now!
DeleteSo good to see you, Betti! I hope you enjoyed your tea! ❤
DeleteBetti, I would be honored if you get a chance to read any of my books. A have a few others over on my site if you're interesting in browsing through them www.jenniferhudsontaylor.net. Thank you for stopping by and joining us!
DeleteI see your sheep comment! You're entered. :)
DeleteGlad you could join us, Betti.
DeleteThanks for stopping by and offering encouragement, Betti. Merry Christmas!
DeleteA warm hello from snow/ice covered areas of Illinois. So many gifted authors with their beautiful stories here today. I have a couple of these books already in my personal library and they were great reads.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaways and looking forward to the party tonight.
I'm wondering if any of the featured authors decorate for Christmas in a Colonial style?
marilynridgway78[at]gmail[dot]com
Hi Marilyn! Its supposed to get to almost 70 here in VA. but drizzly. I am guessing Janet Grunst would be most likely to decorate in colonial style as she lives in Williamsburg. To be honest -- I decorate in ornaments we have collected every year in the 32 years of marriage plus the ones the kids have received from us and others and those they made or loved ones (most special are those from my beloved mother). A few colonial ones in there -- maybe 10%! Blessings!
DeleteWhat a wonderful idea, to decorate in colonial style! I do tend to minimal decorations--the celebration itself as well--so I suppose that is more in keeping with the colonial ways of observing the holidays. 😊
DeleteI have not considered that, but it's a great idea! I do have a Victorian Christmas village I try to put up every year.
DeleteI have not done that, though I do have some voyageur paintings, a trap, and a coon skin hat hanging on my wall. That probably doesn't count. Lol!
DeleteMerry Christmas! What lovely Christmas books. I love reading them, especially at the Christmas time! Rhonda Nash-Hall rhonda_nash_hall@comcast.net
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! Have you ever had shrimp for Christmas Tea? I live in Tidewater coastal Virginia and I'll be bringing some around shortly!
DeleteMerry Christmas, and we're so glad to have you!
DeleteThank you for joining us, Rhonda!
DeleteThank you, ladies, for all the book giveaways. I would love to be entered for all of them, please!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! Be sure to email me if you'd like those audiobook codes!
DeleteThank YOU, Debrajane! We appreciate you stopping by!
DeleteThank you, Debrajane. Consider yourself entered. :)
DeleteHello ladies! I’m so excited to join this party! I love all things Colonial.
ReplyDeleteI would like to be entered for all of the giveaways, except the Rebel Bride since I have that one.
Thank you!

Welcome, welcome, Kailey! Hope you enjoy your visit with us today. How has the Christmas Season been treating you?
DeleteIt’s been alright. I work in the grocery business, so it’s been busy. I’m ready to spend the holiday with my family. How’s it been for you so far?
DeleteHello, Kailey dear! So good to see you!! ❤❤❤
DeleteLots of good reading here, Kailey. Thanks for joining us.
DeleteConsider yourself entered!
DeleteWhat an amazing bunch of authors and books! The only ones I've read are Cameo Courtships and Backcountry Brides. I'd love to be entered to win The Rebel Bride and The Highlanders, especially, but the others sound wonderful, too, so it would be fun to win one of those.
ReplyDeleteI haven't listened to audiobooks before, but I'd love to try one, Carrie! I emailed you.
Glad you could join us, Winnie! I hope you win something!
DeleteGlad you could join us, Winnie.
DeleteGood afternoon, ladies! A bracing cup of hot tea is just the thing for a snowy day here in New England. A wonderful book is another great companion on such a day. With all these new books that I now want to read, I am at a loss to where to carve out the time. Maybe a little extra dust won’t hurt if I delay housecleaning. Congratulations to all the authors. Thank you for your time and generosity with these events.
ReplyDeleteWe're so glad you could take time out of your day to join us! ❤
DeleteThank you, Shannon. I want to read your book, “The Rebel Bride” as well as “Cameo Courtships” which includes Debra E. Marvin's novella. BTW, Merry Christmas!
DeleteThank you for stopping by, Roxanne. We're glad to have you!
DeleteHello from western NY where we had the perfect 'pretty snow' this morning leaving a white blanket on the ground and gray skies. Hallmark worthy but no fun to drive on. I'm at my paying job and unable to comment more but I've appreciated seeing all the friendly faces. Thank you for your support! Like you, I'm eager to read The Rebel Bride!
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon, Debra! Thank YOU for all your kind support as well. ❤
DeleteI just got home from baking cookies with my mom and SIL, so you can have your choice of Chocolate Crinkles, Applesauce Raisin or Outrageous Chocolate Chip (these are my contribution and include oatmeal and peanut butter).
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all the releases, new and old! I would appreciate being entered in all the giveaways, Rebel Bride, Return, Sheep and Highlander.
I listened to the audiobook of Mercy in the Red Cloak and LOVED hearing Shad's and Mercy's story. (PALS)
