There are 2 groups this year, Adult and Young Adult books. The Giveaway runs from October 17-31! Enjoy!
I'm celebrating the upcoming release of my newest novel,
by giving away a signed paperback copy of
To
save her sister’s life, Julia Grey seeks a spell hidden somewhere
within Merriweather Manor. Her position as a lady's companion
affords her the freedom to search the house. But time is running out.
The necromancer she's bargained with is growing impatient. And an
unexpected appearance of a man from her past makes matters
worse in an already complicated situation.
Basil
Merriweather returns to England after ten years abroad to discover his
childhood sweetheart living in his home. But, he's no
longer the carefree man of his youth and she's hiding something--deadly
secrets Basil vows to uncover even as he hides a dark secret of his own.
While
neither Basil nor Julia will trust in the other, their hearts speak a
truer language. In a grand attempt to save Julia's
sister and Basil's life, the two must finally confess sinister truths.
Will their admissions help or hinder any future they may have together?
Or will the necromancer destroy all in a vile attempt at
revenge.
Excerpt:
"What are you doing?"
He
ignored her frantic questioning. Instead, he blocked out the sound of
her voice and raised his arms into the air at his sides, his
fingers splayed out as he extended his senses to scan the area. His
power eased out, like extensions of his fingertips, stretching into the
corners of the room, seeking, searching for the source of
the magic he sensed.
It was here...somewhere.
He had
sensed it earlier on his arrival, but being that his aunt and siblings
practiced magic on a regular basis he'd never given it a
second thought.
This room, however, stank with it. He smelled the odor, something strangely like sulfur...
"A
spell has been cast in this room," he muttered. A strange spell. Odd. A
spell he'd never sensed before, something new. It felt off
is some way he couldn't explain. Who would be working new magic of this
kind in his home? And, in this room in particular. Aunt Petunia worked
her spells in the privacy of her rooms upstairs, or
sometimes in the gardens, but never in this room. And his siblings each,
practiced in their own private settings, places where they could
concentrate without the threat of being disturbed. A fairly
difficult task with the number of people normally in residence at
Merriweather Manor.
He took
a step closer to the center of the room where he sensed a surge of
power. He shivered as coldness seeped into his skin. It
wrapped around his arm, sinking into his flesh, right down to the bone.
This was not right.
The
magic in his house was always full of warmth and gentleness. Goodness
and love. This magic chilled him to the bone. His heart
skipped a beat. There was fear, terror, pain. This spell was full of
darkness.
