As some of you may recall from my 30 Days of Giveaways over the summer, I come up with a unique message to use in signing each of my books–and as I now have cases of Circle of Spies in a corner of my bedroom, it’s time to decide what to write in those! I like it to be a sort of prayer or benediction for my readers, relevant to the book. Here are the ones I’ve been using for my other books:
So here we are again, ready to come up with a new one! And I’m pairing it with a giveaway. Make a recommendation and be entered to win one of FIVE signed copies of Circle of Spies (the first of these I’ve given away!!). Make one that I end up choosing verbatim, and you’ll win a signed copy PLUS one of my other books. Or if you have my other books already, you’ll win a copy of the book of prayers that is featured throughout the series. And if you already have that, too…then we’ll get creative, LOL.
Now, to help you in your recommending, here are some key aspects and themes of the book:
Enough to get you started? I hope so! And please spread the word! (Paperback books eligible only to US mailing addresses–however, internationals are welcome to enter for a digital prize!)

Roseanna M. White is a bestselling, Christy Award winning author who has long claimed that words are the air she breathes. When not writing fiction, she’s homeschooling her two kids, editing, designing book covers, and pretending her house will clean itself. Roseanna is the author of a slew of historical novels that span several continents and thousands of years. Spies and war and mayhem always seem to find their way into her books…to offset her real life, which is blessedly ordinary.
May you find freedom in our Father's redeeming love.
1. Let God's path be your door to freedom.
2. May He always be encircled in your arms of love and warmth.
3. May the rich blessings of the Lord's love touch and guide you as you walk along life's path.
May He be enthroned within your circle.
May He guide your paths, while reminding you from where you've come.
May God be the center of your circle and chase away the spies!
Thanks for the giveaway!

I agree with my friend, Rebecca. It's a great cover and I love that gray dress!
May God's light shine through your circle as he gives you the strength to shine
God bless u

Obviously! 😉
Thanks, Karen! I was so excited that Harvest House let me write his story. I wasn't ready to let go of him after Ring of Secrets! (I know, I know, I'm the author, LOL. But he wasn't supposed to be so good when I first introduced him!) 😉
"May God bless you freedom, shower you with His gifts, and lead you to a family of love."
Loved Fairchild's Lady, and can't wait to read more. 🙂
"May your family legacy be encircled by His freedom and gifts."
"May His gift of freedom encircle your heart."
"May you find His truth."
Wonderful books.

"May God always be the center in your circle of life." I love your way of signing your books. Would love to win. Your books always sound so good. It would be wonderful to to win this book and get another also. I remember so many times when I tried to win one of your books, especially Ring of Secrets. Thanks for a chance to win.

"May His love and freedom encircle you!"
Thanks for the fun giveaway, Roseanna!
Blessings,
Andrea
I was going to suggest almost that exact same thing! Obviously, that's the right one 😉
May your memory of His love never falter.
🙂 And you know I want the book. Signed. 🙂
"May you always use your freedom to remember Him."
So exciting to have another book come out! 😉
I will most definitely ^^
"May you never forget the freedom and redemption given through Him."
Someone probably already commented something similar. There are a lot of good suggestions.
My suggestion is "May you find your true freedom in Him." It is pretty much the same thing that Cindy said above. I tried to come up with something different, but I had already decided on that before I went through the comments, and that is all the creative ability I have! 🙂
"May His arms be always your safe haven and ever your home."
"May you be set free by He who has all power."
"May you love as He first loved you."
"May your children's children bless His name."
"May you give all praise, honour, and glory to God, forever. Amen."
"May you always remember that the Lord is at the heart of everything good."
"May your love for him be surpassed only by His love for you."
"May you always remember that true freedom comes from Him."
"May your bells of freedom ring as you are set free by your King."
"May His bells of freedom proceed you down the paths of righteousness."
Oh my goodness I think I cheated. Lol. I'm sure I won't win despite my cheating measures though, so it's all good.
Jewel of Persia's cover looks so tempting! Have not yet bought it though. I only wish my church library would carry your books! Actually I haven't read any of your books – yet. Hearing good things about them though!
"May you always remember that the freedom of His love is an unending circle"
That's the best one I could come up with, hope it's not too many words! 🙂
May you find your true freedom in Christ. I hope this one wasnt mentioned or used already, I didn't read the other comments.
LOL, Annette. Let's say this is why I don't send out Christmas cards anymore…
May you always circle back to Him who is faithful.
I'm not good at this…or Christmas cards…or …
Jean Fisher commented on Facebook. Logging it here. =)
"May you always embrace the freedom of Christ's redemption."
Hope that makes sense (it does in my head at least). 🙂
Can't wait to read this one!! Loving the cover design!

May you be free forever or Redemption comes to those who ask. Hope those help and thanks for the giveaway. 🙂
I have not had the privilege of reading your books yet. I intend to change that soon! 🙂
I keep coming to Galatians 5:
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free

Thanks, Chris! I had so much fun with Thad and Gwyn, and loved bringing them back in this one. You'll find them older but much like you remember them. =)
Loving this suggestion!
Thanks, Rebecca! It's my favorite cover of the series, for sure. They nailed Marietta perfectly! And I had it early enough that I could describe that dress in one scene, and mention the curl a few times. =)
Hope you enjoy it, Kishona! It might be favorite. Maybe. Though I always say this of the most recent, LOL.
Whispers from the Shadows is my absolute favorite
Please have a wonderful,terrific day
God bless you
Chris

"Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom". 2Cor. 3:17
I absolutely love the book cover and look forward to reading it!
May you find freedom and redemption through Him that gives it so freely.
May you embrace all the goodness He gives.
Thanks for the giveaways!

You're awesome, Kate!!!
And I'm looking forward to you reading it and spotting your spy name in there. 😉
Aw, thanks, Eleanor! That would be lovely!!! If ever you make it back to the east coast, you should let me know. =)
"May you remember that your freedom is found in the Father's embrace." LOVE this series – can't wait to read this one!
May your redemption free your to embrace the gifts He has given you.
Or how about:
Your redemption will free you from the memories of your past and lead you to embrace His gifts.
May you always live your life remembering your redemption and His mercy.
– That one is kind of long though. I'm not sure how short you want them. Maybe:
May you always use your freedom and redemption to bless others.
May the realization of your redemption free you from the memories of your past,
Just some suggestions. 🙂 By the way, I convinced my church library to by Annapolis, Ring of Secrets, and Whispers in the Shadows! Plus, the ordered copy of Circle of Spies just came in! I'm still working on getting your two biblical fiction books (and eventually your third one) on our shelves.
May His Word be a lamp to your feet.
May He free you to belong.
"May you always know the freedom gained by His grace through salvation." Or…
"May you be united to Him with inseparable bonds."
As always, I am looking forward to reading another Roseanna White masterpiece, whether I win or not. 🙂
How about "May you always remember Him" or "May you always allow Him to set you free".
I'm always so impressed with your writing Roseanna. It would be fun to sit down and chat with you again like old times. 🙂
