Check out my interview on Authors on Air with New York Times bestselling author Mary Kay Andrews. Mary Kay hit the ground running with her breezy Southern romantic fiction back in 2002 with Savannah Blues. She followed it up with Little Bitty Lies, Hissy Fit, Savannah Breeze, Blue Christmas, and Deep Dish. Her latest novel, The Fixer Upper, is another sure-fire hit. It goes on sale June 23rd. Listen to Mary Kay as she talks to fellow readers and myself about her books, the art of junking, and the state of libraries today. Be sure to send us a comment--we'll sendyou a book! Quantities limited to the first 25 comments we receive. Enjoy the chat--she's a lot of fun!
Earlier this year, Mary Kay Andrews stopped by the HarperCollins studio to make this promotional video for The Fixer Upper. We hope these interviews provide some insight into the colorful cast of characters you'll find in The Fixer Upper. Pre-order a copy today (so you don't have to stand in line), and remember, for every Fixer Upper you purchase, Mary Kay Andrews will buy you a pony.*

The Fixer Upper looks great - both the book and the real one on Tybee Island! Always look forward to her books.
And thanks for the giveaway.

I love Mary Kay Andrews' books. Savannah Breeze had an incrdible sense of place. I couldn't wait to revisit that city!

I love my local library as they keep me in tons of books, but I especially loved Deep Dish and would LOVE to read another book by Mary Kay Andrews! She is such a fun writer and I love her novels that are set in the south and her fun characters!
Thanks posting this giveaway!

Sounds like a good read, I can't wait. No pony is a little disappointing though.
