Blog Tour: A Dare and A Prayer

 It's my day to celebrate Julie Lessman's newest book - A Dare and A Prayer!   

 A Dare and A Prayer is the third title in Julie's The Cousins O'Connor series. The main character is Henry Dennehy - the incorrigible twin brother of Hope Dennehy (Charity and Mitch's son). 💙

 

The rich (deep love and connection, not monies) family Julie brought to life is my favorite. This is one of the top reasons I adore her stories. Yes, you hear Henry's story (Yay, yay, yay!), but you also hear more about his family. I love the O'Connors and the world building in the amazing saga. Feel free to read this as a standalone, but I would highly encourage you to start at the beginning. 😉😁 Full series listing on her website.

 

Back to more on Henry!

 

He’s a hotshot who takes up a dare.

She’s an aspiring missionary who wants to beware.

But will love become a gamble with a dare and a prayer?

Lieutenant Henry Dennehy is a cocky and carefree fighter pilot in the Pacific Theatre of WW2, known for scoring big, both in the sky and on land. But when his buddies offer a bet he can’t refuse to turn the head of the “untouchable” nurse at 369th Station Hospital—a woman who’s shot down more flyboys than the enemy—he’s bound and determined to win. Problem is, if he wins the dare, will he lose at love?

Lieutenant Amy Leigh MacArthur was on her way to the mission field when she detoured to fight for her country instead, an Army nurse whose interest lies only in healing the wounded and teaching orphans to read. Certainly not in men, and definitely not in Henry Dennehy, the boy who ridiculed her years ago as a shy and homely teen. But when Henry pursues her and won’t take no for an answer, Amy finds a way that gives him no choice.

Until, that is, love does the same for them both ...

NOTE: This book is sweet inspirational with a higher level of romantic passion. Julie's books are "Passion with a Purpose." 💗

From Julie:

"MY TAGLINE IS “PASSION WITH A PURPOSE," which means my novels are a wee bit more passionate, both spiritually and romantically, chock-full of spiritual lessons I have learned--the hard way--throughout my own life. Especially A DARE AND A PRAYER, my newest that just released yesterday because the hero--Henry Dennehy, a lovable rogue with a big heart--has some tough life lessons of his own to learn."
