GIVEAWAY and EXCERPT: The Sham by Ellen Allen
Extract six: “I can still hear her screams” From prologue: Now Six months ago, my boyfriend was quite a catch. Ask anyone. But that was before the stubbly face, the cruddy clothes, the living rough in the woods. Before the headaches forced him to constantly rub his forehead like he’s trying to remove indelible ink. And way before now where he’s covered in blood, slumped under HOT DRINKS & CAKES on the supermarket café floor. He’s holding her hand. It’s still attached to her body, despite the way her arm has been hacked apart. The artery inside is exposed like a kid’s toy, as if someone just wanted to see the inner workings, replace the batteries. It’s pulsing even after she’s dead; little electric shocks of blood splattering the tiles as if someone is squeezing a carton of apple juice a little too tight. Her hair is plastered to her… Read more »
$50 GIVEAWAY and REVIEW: Play of Light by Debra Doxer
REVIEW Play of Light is an almost sweet new adult romance with some mystery and suspense elements. The two main characters, Sarah and Spencer, meet as young kids. Sarah was just twelve and Spencer was fourteen. There was an instant connection between them, but two years is a pretty insurmountable age difference when you’re so young. Sarah spent her most of her life with a strange infatuation with this boy. She even has a few what-if daydreams about meeting him and talking to him. Which totally reminded me of being so young because that’s what you do. You make up all these crazy fantasies about how you’d meet. Or how he’d be sorry for not talking to you. Or, if you’re Kristi here on the blog, certain other things that we can’t talk about outside the street team. 😉 I really thought the memory trip stuff with Sarah was cute… Read more »
$50 GIVEAWAY and EXCERPT: Hands Off! The 100 Day Agreement by Candy J. Starr
EXCERPT “Ha, I win. You landed on Park Lane and I have a hotel on it. You can’t pay. I win. I win.” I’d have jumped up and done a victory dance if I could use my foot. It was infuriating how Chad didn’t even get ruffled when I beat him. It took some of the joy out of it. I wanted him to give more of a sign. Not just a flare of his nostrils but some real loser angst. “Wanna play again?” Chad shook his head. “What’s wrong? Are you scared? Scared I’m going to whupp your ass.” Chad nodded and shot me a grin. “I was thinking of heading to the gym. Board games don’t count as real exercise.” “It’s totally exercise and you can’t leave. What if I need something?” Chad grabbed my crutches from the corner and sat them next to the sofa. “You can… Read more »

KINDLE GIVEAWAY and EXCERPT: Warlord by Lana Grayson
EXCERPT “You’re lying if you say you want out of this life,” he said. I wished I hadn’t stared at his lips. Or concentrated on the baritone threat of his words. Or willed the twisted beat of my heart to slam against my chest. “I’m not part of Anathema,” I said. “No, but it’s part of you. And all the concerts and college loans and temper tantrums won’t get you out of the club. So what is it? Why are you so desperate to leave?” His fingers teased along the too-pink lace of my panties. My cheeks flushed with the same innocence, but I didn’t let him scare me. “Why are you so desperate to keep me here?” He liked that challenge. “If you knew what was good for you, you’d go running back to your big brothers.” “We’re not talking at the moment.” “Maybe you should be a good… Read more »
