CLOSED Giveaway: The Healer's Apprentice, from Velvet + Fairy Tales in Bruges

One of the first things I thought of when I started organizing Fairy Tale Fortnight was "I wonder if Velvet is going to do Fairy Tales in Bruges again?"  You see, Velvet is prone to these fits of awesomeness wherein she has incredible mini-events that blow my mind.

Being the obliging, lovely person she is, Velvet scheduled Fairy Tales in Bruges to coincide with Fairy Tale Fortnight!

It's going on right now and there are a ton of great posts, giveaways and all the things Velvet does best!

You can check it out here.  (and while you're there, make sure to check out my giveaway)

But before you go, Velvet is offering 1 lucky winner a copy of The Healer's Apprentice right here on The Book Rat for Fairy Tale Fortnight!

Melanie Dickerson

Two Hearts. One Hope.Rose has been appointed as a healer's apprentice at Hagenheim Castle, a rare opportunity for a woodcutter's daughter like her. While she often feels uneasy at the sight of blood, Rose is determined to prove herself capable. Failure will mean returning home to marry the aging bachelor her mother has chosen for her---a bloated, disgusting merchant who makes Rose feel ill.When Lord Hamlin, the future duke, is injured, it is Rose who must tend to him. As she works to heal his wound, she begins to understand emotions she's never felt before and wonders if he feels the same. But falling in love is forbidden, as Lord Hamlin is betrothed to a mysterious young woman in hiding. As Rose's life spins toward confusion, she must take the first steps on a journey to discover her own destiny.
