This week’s book giveaway is for the historical romance book It Happened at the Fair by Deeanne Gist.
What is this book about?
Gambling everything—including the family farm—Cullen McNamara travels to the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair with his most recent invention. But the noise in the fair’s Machinery Hall makes it impossible to communicate with potential buyers. In an act of desperation, he hires Della Wentworth, a teacher of the deaf, to tutor him in the art of lip-reading.
The young teacher is reluctant to participate, and Cullen has trouble keeping his mind on his lessons while intently watching her lips. Like the newly invented Ferris wheel, he is caught in a whirl between his girl back home, his dreams as an inventor, and his unexpected attraction to his new tutor. Can he keep his feet on the ground, or will he be carried away?
Where can I learn more about this author and their books?

I don’t ride the rides at the fair. I enjoy the exhibits.
Thanks for commenting Caryl. 🙂
I think the book sounds intriguing!
What ride would you go on first at a fair Donna?
The Carousel! Always my favorite ride! I love Deanna’s books! Always so entertaining! Thanks for the chance to win!
You’re welcome Faith. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
The carousel would be my kind of ride. The Ferris Wheel is too high! In our little fair when I was a child, I liked the tilt a whirl. But the games were the best!
That all sounds fun Paula. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
The Little Roller Coaster
Thanks for commenting Linda. 🙂
I ride the roller coaster first
Adventurous! Thanks for commenting Susan. 🙂
I always enjoyed the Ferris Wheel. When I got older and braver, the double Ferris Wheel.
Thanks for sharing Gail. 🙂
I always enjoyed the Ferris Wheel but as I have gotten older I love watching the grandchildren ride on the rides! Thank you Loraine for this lovely post! Blessings to you!
You’re welcome Sarah. Thanks for commenting. 🙂
The ferris wheel so I can see everything from the top first 🙂
And what a great view that is, right Jan? Thanks for sharing. 🙂
At a younger age, I’d run to the roller coaster line but not any longer.
Yeah I can relate to that Sally, I’m not so adventurous as I get older. 😉 Thanks for sharing.
When I used to go I always headed to a roller coaster or tilt a whirl if it was a smaller event. Thanks for the chance.
You’re welcome Lynn. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
I don’t enjoy the rides anymore as I get nauseous. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for commenting Lucy. 🙂
It would either be the tilt-a-whirl or the whip.
Nice. 🙂 Thanks for sharing Roxanne.
I don’t like rides at the fair, I’d rather look at the exhibits or watch a show.
Thanks for commenting Pam. 🙂
At my age, the Merry-go-round is wild enough for me.
LOL Vivian I completely understand. Thanks for commenting. 🙂
I’ll do the merry-go-round!
🙂 Thanks for commenting Joan.
I am going with the Merry-Go-Round as I prefer the milder rides.
Thanks for commenting Hesper. 🙂
