Twelve Days of Christmas

Through December 25th, TRC is celebrating Christmas with our Twelve Days of Christmas event!

This contest is for Traditional Romance, Mystery, Women's Fiction, and Non-Fiction genres.

(Be sure to print out your Santa's List! While you're reading the book excerpts each week, it's an easy and convenient way to list books you'd like to buy for yourself, or for family and friends this holiday season!)

What are the prizes? Each winner of our weekly prize will receive a $25.00 gift certificate (your choice - Amazon, Macys.com, Lowes, BestBuy.com or Walmart.com)!

What are the prizes? Each winner of our Runners Up will each win a stocking stuffed with gift cards, chocolate and books, valued at over $100.00 (each).

What are the prizes? Each winner of our Grand Prize winners will receive huge prize packages commemorating the 12 Days of Christmas, valued at over $500.00 each

Those who enter our weekly contests with the correct 12 answers to that week's questions will be automatically entered into our Grand Prize drawings.

You may enter each weekly contest ONE TIME each week (duplicate weekly entries will be discarded) - so you can have up to 4 chances to win in each of our 2 Grand Prize drawings (that's 10 chances altogether!)

11 jars of gourmet jams and spreads (blackberry, raspberry, strawberry, marmalade, honeybutter, etc)

TWO winners will be drawn on December 31st from all correct submissions (remember, you must answer all 12 questions correctly in any given week for 1 entry into EACH of our Grand Prize drawings - enter every week and get 4 entries into each of our Grand Prize drawings, or 8 entries total!)
