Harlequin has a new website to share free eBooks: RomanceWhenYouNeedIt.com. Yay! Free reading! And to celebrate, they’d like to give away a Kate Spade bag full of 24 copies of Harlequin series titles.
Nice combination, right? I love this bag – take a look:
That is the Kate Spade Clement Street Blair bag in straw. It’s 11.7” tall by 12.5” wide, and 5.5” in diameter. The handle drop (this is a crucial number for me when handbag shopping – it’s the distance between the top of the handle and the top edge of the bag) is 9”. You can easily carry this bag over your shoulder. It has two interior pockets and a wide bottom so it’ll stand up on its own.
And it’s CUTE.
Plus, it’ll come with 24 Harlequin series titles to keep you busy for most of the summer. Yay!
Standard disclaimers apply: I’m not being compensated for this giveaway. Void where prohibited. open to US residents (sorry, sorry!). Must be over 18 and ready to tote and read. Closer cover before striking. Do not put books into washing machine. There is no hidden message to be revealed by reading this disclaimer backwards though it may produce some compelling avant-garde poetry. Reheat at 350 for 25 minutes covered with foil.

I’d carry it to a park where I’d spread out a blanket, a sandwich, some chocolate, and get to reading!
I have a son who is dependent on blood transfusions to survive. So every three weeks we head to the hospital and sit there for eight to ten hours while my son gets two more units of fresh red blood cells. He plays video games the whole time and I sit around in boredom. Lately, I’ve been thinking a need a cute little bag to take with me and I can fill it with books and all the crap he feels like we need to drag to the hospital with us. It’s like this is made for me!
I would carry my bag of books to the White Mountains, to read in a gazebo overlooking Mount Washington!
I would carry my bag full of books to my best friend. She got me hooked on romance and is in a place in her life right now where she could use an amazingly cute bag full of books. Hopefully she would then loan the books back to me when she finishes them 😉
I’d take my bag to the park for a picnic and reading!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I would carry my amazing books in this most delightful bag to the nearest beach by my home land of Central Florida. Book Lovers never go to bed lonely and thank goodness we can all look good reading the latest novels that make our imagination come alive.
I’m on maternity leave this summer, so I’ll be lucky if I can carry it to the back deck? It will probably live next to my couch.
BUT. We’re dreaming, right? In that case, I’ll carry it on an airplane. Then off the airplane to a lovely cafe in Paris so I can read while drinking coffee and eating pastries.
The bag and the books would be perfect for my two favorite places to read….on a cruise ship and in my hot tub..both great places to let the imagination run wild with hot hunky heroes!
I would carry the book filled tote to Central Park. Sitting there on a nice spring day is the best way to read
Nothing like the feel of a good book in your hand! I would carry this bag to the pool, beach, kids sporting events, and in my car in case I need to “escape”. Thanks so much for the chance! Shared!
Everywhere! I will read the the books on the train, on the plane and will laying on the beach and even on the bathroom throne!
My favorite place to read on-the-go is the park. But truthfully, my favorite place is at home, on my couch. Now, I would use the bag to get more books from the library and the bookstore.
a totally cute bag and I’d take it to the beach with my sunglasses book lotion and hat!
I would carry this adorable bag…pretty much everywhere! Definitely to the park nearby, if I can get my dog calm enough to let me read in peace.
I’d carry it to our tennis club
Outside under a tree on a sunny day!
Harlequin and Smartbitches are the greatest!!
I’d carry it to the hill country, sit on a wide porch with a tall cold drink and get lost in all those books!
A park on the lake with some stealth sangria.
on the beach under a umbrella with a drink in myhand

Um, I’d carry this bag EVERYWHERE. I LOVE Kate Spade!
I think the better question is, where couldn’t I take a pretty bag full of books,
Well a bag of books should go EVERYWHERE! But mine would absolutely shuttle books back and forth between my favorite reading spot on the patio and to work so I can sit in the park and read downtown on my lunch hour.
Vacation for sure! And then a book store for more books.
I would carry my bag of books to the park and gym.
I would carry my tote to all the locations where great romance novels take place: a ranch with sexy cowboys, a picturesque seaside town, a victorian mansion, a masquerade ball, a halted elevator. You name it. Wherever romance happens, I’ll be there! … With this tote bag.
I’d carry that super cute bag full of books out into my yard so I could sit in my swing and read outside in the sun under an umbrella.
I moved to Australia 3 months ago and now live about 30 seconds from the beach. My fiancé and I like to walk to the steps leading down to the water to enjoy the sunset every evening. I would happily make him stay home and take my bag of books on the outing instead…kidding. However, I would still take my bag on a beach date – perhaps in the hours before sunset.
I would carry my bag full of books to track meets. Did you know they last ALL day? My daughter runs the longest event, 2 miles, which means I sit on metal bleachers ALL day for 15 minutes of excitement.
I’d carry it everywhere, never know when there is time to read.
I love my family’s acreage and I even love all the work it takes to maintain it. But I rarely get the chance to sit and simply soak in the pleasure of being here; I’m too busy thinking about the next project while finishing the current one! I would absolutely glory in having a tote of romances to read while lazing on my front porch for an entire day, sipping tea and looking out over the lake and the view, and take it in to appreciate this little piece of heaven I work so hard for.
