Please specify if you're entering as an author, a reader, or both. Author only entries will be removed before a winner is chosen.
IF you have a pre-order, please upload a SAMPLE to Google Drive and give people with the link permission to view. Put that link in the Rafflecopter form.

Morning Jo. It's Friday!!!!!
ReplyDeleteShifter Fates - Elle's Claim. Seems like the title says it all, right? It's about some shifters and a woman named Elle. Only it's more than that. Yes Elle will stake her claim but is that before or after she finds out her True Mates secret? Or before they find out hers? Elle is a fighter and she doesn't care who you are, friend, enemy or mate. If you wrong her you'll feel her wrath either in the form of her fist or a sword. But as strong as she is, she also has weaknesses. Ones that someone she loves and holds dear exploits. As self-sufficient as she's been for over a millennium it turns out that all she was raised to believe was either a lie or that someone more powerful then herself has tampered with Fate and now nothing is as it seems. Not her mates, not their mom, not even her uncle. There's a war brewing that involves hybrid wolves known as Shades created by merging a shifter with a daemon. What remains to be seen, even with Elle's visions, is who is behind it and what do they have to gain?
Happy Friday, Laila!! :) Shifters? Yes, please! I do love a good shifter novel--especially one with a bada$$ chick. You know I'm all about the strong women! Hybrid wolves, too? Okay, I'm digging into this one NOW. :) Thank you for pitching again! SQUEEEEEEE!!!
DeleteCongratulations folks!
ReplyDeleteLove this. Hope to see you often over the next few weeks, Michelle :)
DeleteBreak My Bones - Why will you like this? A few reasons. First, a wish is granted and that, of course, opens the door for all sorts of chaos! Second, Crissy is a kicka$$ girl who literally fights for her life, pulls herself up from the darkness, and shines bright in the end. You'll be cheering for her on every page. Third, there's a hippie-genie who will make you want to stay in her magical world forever.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the fun, Shawn!! I'm a little over 50% of the way through Sticks and Stones, so the second installment will be awesome to add to my TBR :) Thank you SOOOO much for the pitch. I do love me some Mandy! :)
DeleteGood to hear!! I'm pretty fond of her, too. :)
DeleteI'd hope so :D hehe
DeleteThe Trojan Project - Like the titles says, this is a read about a project devised secretly by the UK Government. But what they didn't plan was the fact that it would be used by a jealous man to get back the woman he loved. Once Trojan is unleashed in the North of England, there is no going back. The Prime Minister sets out a plan to cover-up the incident ordering troops into the area to kill anyone trying to escape and spread the news..
ReplyDeleteBelieving her husband is dead, Sarah and her children are forced to flee for their lives. But will they escape for the terror in the hills. The story is a roller-coaster read from start to finish.
Welcome, Eileen! Thank you ever so much for this awesome pitch! Mystery and terror are AMAZING! And I hope I get angry when I reach the end of the sample because there's no more book :) Roller-coaster rides are so fun. Looking forward to it! I hope you have fun over the next few weeks and make tons of new friends :)
DeleteThank you for your reply. Have a great day!
DeleteCongrats, Sahara! Your book looks like such an interesting take on the Arthur legend!! I was actually named after his sister, Morgana le Faye. (No joke. That's my full name, haha!) I'll definitely be checking this out. <3
ReplyDeleteI'm pitching my first novel, Free to Fly. I'm a huge fan of raw emotion. That's the basis of this book. But I'm also a firm believer that there is humor to found in even the worst situations, and the best types of people are those who can find it. As such, while my main character, Zoe's, journey is difficult and filled with change, you'll also find the odd conversation about whether dolphins enjoy oral and random Lost Girl references. I blended together laughter and tears for a well-rounded, engaging story that is just the kind of book I, as a reader, would want to read.
Hiya, Morgan!! Welcome back. Raw emotion is such a difficult thing to nail, but what a great name for an MC! A wise person once told me: Write the story you want to read. That advice has been with me since. I can't wait to share in your vision :) Thank you for coming back, and good luck, sweets!
DeleteThank you Morgan, and I think that's so cool you were named after Arthur's sister. :) And Jo, thank you for picking my book. I sincerely hope you enjoy the story.
DeleteHappy Friday! Yay! My pitch today is for Awakening which is book 2 to The Lost Heir that I pitched yesterday. It continues the story with Darrak trying to find his way in Dragonath, but he's betrayed by two of the companions sworn to protect him and discovers the person he thought was the enemy is really just a pawn to a Hellborn returned from the dead.
ReplyDeleteAND WE MEET A DRAGON! My dragons aren't the typical greedy, fire breathing dragons. Each color has different abilities (some can even swim!) but they're all empathetic and use their magic to manipulate the earth when they fight. You'd think the arrival of such a fierce ally would help Darrak, but it doesn't. Dragons were hunted for sport and almost became extinct. They were granted protection by Darrak's ancestors but it's been so long since they were seen, no one even knows they ever existed. So, not only does he have to convince everyone he's the rightful heir, he's got to deal with the loss of two major assets of his company, and convince the world that Wystra (the dragon) is noble and isn't hell bent on eating them all!
OMG A DRAGON!! YAYYYYYY!! Now, you know if I end up loving book one, I'll probably move on to book two. LOL! I'm getting through the samples, and I may or may not have loved yours. You'll find out ;) What a unique idea to have different dragons have different abilities. Reminds me of Dragon Heart kinda (the first one). Thank you SOSO much for pitching book 2, Andi! :) Welcome back!
DeleteI love dragons too. I'll have to check these out.
DeleteGood morning & happy Friday~
ReplyDeleteI am offering up Skeleton Dance, which is a short story (hope that is okay, I didn't note any page reqs in the rules, but I am pre-caffeine at the moment). This story is the result of being locked in a stark white room with no resources (no Internet, no dictionaries, no visual stimuli of any kind) for three hours, being given a prompt, and then being told to write a complete story. The result is an emotionally dark story focusing on the connection between a young girl and her grandmother -- and this grandma is not the kind who bakes apple pies. I recognize it's not everyone's cup of tea, but for anyone looking for something a little different, a little dark, Skeleton Dance can definitely fit that bill.
And just as a precaution (because the Comment As thing below is showing unknown even thought I am logged in as myself), this is me, C. Jai Ferry.
Welcome to the madness, C. Jai. Great name, by the way! Nah, there's no page limits. I read it all. :) ROFL @ the pre-caffeine comment :) This sounds like one hell of an interesting premise and creation method. I can't wait to dive in. I love dark and different. Thank you so much for pitching your book. I hope you have fun and mingle and mix and be with the other authors over the next few weeks :)
DeleteHello, Jo.
ReplyDeleteDay two seems like a good time to pitch book two in my Harper Falls series.
This is a story about a young woman who is fearless and totally kick-ass. She jumps from planes. She's a black belt in Karate. If it's fast she wants to drive it. Her career as a photographer has taken her all over the world from film festivals to war zones. When she fell in love for the first time she jumped in feet, and heart, first.
She's given a second chance at love but she has to deal with his PTSD and danger that has followed him to Harper Falls.
What I think you will love about Dani is her pro-active attitude. She doesn't wait around for life to happen. That includes getting the man she loves and taking care of villains.
If you are looking for a sexy emotional love story with strong women and amazing friendships, this is the book for you.
Thanks for this great opportunity.
Mary J. Williams
Welcome back, Mary! Villains?! Oh yeah, I love some good emotion, strong women, and friendships (was just talking about this last item). :) I'm looking forward to getting into your samples. Tonight is the night! :) Thank you for coming back and joining in the fun.
DeleteThis sounds awesome! <3 I love kick-ass heroines that don't sit back and let life happen to them. So refreshing! I'll definitely be checking this out. Jo, you're killing my TBR, haha! So worth it.
DeleteOh yeah, you should've heard her on the interview on A Daily Cup of Jo. She LOVES and writes strong women! It was AWESOME :)
DeleteGood morning everyone! So many great books on here! I am excited to take a look at these!
ReplyDeleteMy pitch today is for Elements of a Broken Mind, the first book in the Clear Angel Chronicles. You get introduced to Psychic Clear Angel, who ends up pushing herself into a serial killer investigation in her small home town and meeting Detective Grant Anderson.
Although I list this under a psychic detective thriller, there is a lot of romantic tension.
I love writing about broken people, because I think we are all a little broken and seeing that lets us know we are normal. Seeing that broken people can find happiness also gives hope.
Looking forward to seeing the other entries for today!
Hiya, Chick! I couldn't agree with you more on the broken people part. I think we all need a little healing now and then. Love stories that have a journey. Looking forward to it! Thanks for coming back. This sounds awesome!
DeleteHope you're having a great time. :) Too many good books. How will I choose just 12?
I love paranormal thrillers. I've added to my wish list. :)
DeleteGood morning everyone and thank you Jo for allowing us this platform. Also congrats to all the winners from yesterday.
ReplyDeleteMy pitch for today is for my new YA Chasing Clarity. This is the story of Mia Gerard an 18 year old woman who has lost the love of her life to a tragic accident. Mia is a promising dancer who has now lost the love of her life Leo Dancy. She is distraught without him and mourns on her own in her room in the city of Ann Arbor Michigan. Suddenly Mia is offered a chance to go to The New York Dance Academy of Performing Arts a school that she had deferred to after Leo dies. Mia is then whisked into The New York Life and begins to slowly come out of her shell where she meets new friends like Sandy. However then she meets handsome London Painter Henry Watson who completely throws Mia off her game.
I wrote this story to show how one character is able to carry herself after such a tragedy. Will she sink or swim and will she be able to Chase the clarity she needs.
Sylvia Stein Chasing Clarity 2015
Good morning, Sylvia! I loved your reading of this book on my radio show. I'm soooo looking forward to reading the sample. Sounds awesome! Woohoo! Thanks for pitching your book today :) Do hang out and connect with some of the other authors. That's a lot of what this is about, after all :)
Deletethank you so much and will do!
DeleteThank you so much Tricia Copeland for the donation to this event!
ReplyDeleteRight? She's amazing! :D
DeleteThis is such a fun idea - but you're turning my TBR pile into a mountain!!! LOL!
ReplyDeleteMy pitch: I'm pitching "Hereafter" the first novel in my contemporary paranormal Afterlife Series. Hereafter is about Irene Dunphy, a hot mess party-girl, who dies and finds herself stuck on earth as a ghost. Her options are to stay as a ghost or try to find a way to cross over to the other side, but Irene doesn't play but other people's rules and decides to try and find a way to be alive again. It's sort of a 50-50 mix of humorous/light-hearted Chick Lit and more somber Women's Fiction, all set in a Urban Fantasy setting. What's unique about the series (and what I loved about writing it) is that it contains elements of real afterlife mythology and ghost lore from almost every culture on earth with the base premise of "what if all the stories were true?"
Join the club, Terri! LOL! I never buy just 12, but I'm going to do my best not to overload my apple cart this year :) Anywhoooo, welcome to the crazy! Good to have you here. OMG! She dies?! It sounds amazing. I'm half in love with it already, and I haven't even read a word! :) *grabby hands* Thank you for your awesome pitch. Hope you have a good time over the next few weeks!!
DeleteIf you're going to buy a dozen of anything, why not make it a baker's dozen at least, right, 'cause then you get to least squeeze in one more! :-) At least that's how I justify things to myself :-)
DeleteGood morning!!! <3

Good Morning, Angelique!! I do hope you gave me a little sample in Drive and linked me up so I can read. :) This book sounds sooooooooooooooooooo freaking cool! I joined the release party, and I can't wait to check out a sample. :) Thank you so much for popping in to pitch your book today! I do hope you stick around and indulge in some interaction :) Welcome to the madness!
DeleteJust returned home from a week at Disney World with the fam and I'm playing catch-up with all of my emails and such. (I actually stayed off of my laptop for 5 days!) But I wanted to stop in and say thanks so much to everyone who entered to win my giveaway yesterday! And Jo, thanks for hosting such a fun and unique event! <3 *hugs*
ReplyDeleteYAY! I love Disney World :) Thank you for donating to this amazeballs event!! Hope you hang around to participate and chat up some of the authors :)
DeleteThis is for My Rodeo Man.
ReplyDeleteZach Kincaid was definitely not what Ashley was looking for – one more risk-taking, bad boy to add to that long list of jerks who kept breaking her heart. She was fed up. From here on out, bad boys need not apply. So how had this cocky, confident cowboy charmed his way into her affections? She sure wasn’t going to succumb without a fight.
Ashley Drayton looked like the typical, spoiled Southern Belle that made Zach turn tail and head for the hills. As a champion team roper on the rodeo circuit and ranch owner, he sure didn’t need the complications she would bring to his life. When he finally did settle down, he wanted a woman strong enough to stand beside him, not some debutant.
Can a rough and rugged cowboy live happily ever after with a sassy and sophisticated socialite?
Oh boy, Bonnie! This sounds like a fun read :) Bad boys need not apply :) Love it! Welcome to the insanity that's the pitch fest!! I think, sometimes, opposites attract, and I'm looking forward to your sample big time :) Great pitch! I hope you have some fun, and good luck!
DeleteThank you for hosting this pitch fest. So many amazing stories. Looks like I will be adding a few to my 'to read' collection. So many great books - so little time!
DeleteHi Jo. Thanks so much for inviting me to the event!
ReplyDeleteMy pitch is for Breeder, book 1 in The Arrow's Flight series, a YA Dystopian novel with a hint of faith.
A century after the world was decimated by a devastating war, only one village stands. Here, we meet, sixteen year old Kate. Born under the sign of the Archer, she is a girl with heart and spunk... and no choices. Fate has determined her future as a breeder, and even though she wants to believe something bigger than Fate controls this life, she has no proof. Despite her scary, short-lived rebellion, the Counsel's wishes are carried out, and Kate is dragged to the Pit and left with her mate. Ian is not what she expected. As the days pass, this frightened and agitated boy full of secrets, becomes more of a curiosty. A shaky beginning turns into a forbidden friendship that leads to Ian's escape, and the truth about Ian and the everything Kate's ever believed about her village comes crashing down around her. Will she be able to escape her destiny? Or will Fate squeeze every drop of hope dry?
OMG, Casey! o.O This sounds sooo angsty! Excited to dive in and take a peek now! Welcome to the madness, and THANK YOU for the pitch! :) This sounds amazing. Girl from nothing hopes to rise up and take control :D YEAH!
DeleteI won?! Holy crap. Thank you. :) What do you need from me?
ReplyDeleteOh, and Jo, if we posted yesterday, do we need to post again during the event or just stop by and read all the delightful pitches? :)
Congratulations! :) I contacted your author. They should be in touch with you shortly. If not by tomorrow evening, let me know and I'll contact them again. :)
DeleteBy all means, pitch a new book or come have a chat with an author. Or both :) Buy books, make friends, read samples :) It's a party, right? LOL
Hi Jen! Congrats! I just sent you an email about all the goodies you won from me.
DeleteHi Jo! Day 2! YAY! Here's my next pitch.
ReplyDeleteThe Geneva Project: Prequels - The Christmas Gift (short story)
"A heartwarming stocking full of joy." This short story, reminiscent of The Gift of the Magi, explores the importance of friendship and the mystery of Christmas as young characters discover the gifts that are truly most important often aren't material gifts at all.
Welcome back, Christina :) I remember this sale and wanting to read it. Awesome that you pitched it :) WOOHOOO!! Hope you're enjoying the party!!
DeleteHi everyone - my name is Karla and I'm a book reader and reviewer. I also write a book review blog with a friend called Avid Reader Book Reviews on Facebook. Thanks so much for the invite, Jo!
ReplyDeleteWow, so many great books and it's only day two!! All of these pitches are awesome! Methinks I'll be loading up my TBR too!
Thank you, Jo, for this wonderfully unique event and to Tricia Copeland for today's Rafflecopter prize!
I hope to meet many of you during the next 11 days! :)
Karla
Welcome back for a second amazeballs year!! Soooo good to see you again!! <3
DeleteJo, thank you so much for picking my book. I'm so thrilled!!. And I have to agree, there are a lot of really good books being pitched here. I already bought one and added another to my wish list. What I don't see here is a good horror book. So here's my pitch:
ReplyDeleteIt Lives in the Basement. You know that creepy, scary feeling you get when going into a dark basement. Maybe there's a reason why. This story was written about a house that I lived in for many years. Part of the basement was a dirt floor, and I always thought there was a body buried in there somewhere. I hated going into the room. Shiver!! Anyway, this story takes place in that house. People have disappeared and now a mutilated body has been found. Detective John Carter has to find the killer, but he's being told by a fellow officer that its actual an ancient evil creature that was born in the house, and is now living in the sewers. Do they dare go after the creature, and if they do, who will survive? BTW, this book just earned a 5 star seal from Readers' Favorite.
Girl, you're KILLIN me with these pitches. This sounds AWESOME! I loooooove a good horror novel! :) Thank you for the second pitch and congrats. Great writing :)
DeleteThank you. :)
DeleteWhat a fun contest! Here's my pitch for The Dawn of Dae, Dae Portals Book 1. I'm apparently a rebel who breaks elevators for longer pitches. Don't mind the screwdriver... I wouldn't *really* break the elevator... really. >.>
ReplyDeleteThe chance to attend college is just what Alexa Daegberht needs to break out of the mold of her caste. If she can become a Bach, she can escape the poverty she’s endured ever since her parents died when she was five. Only through education can she rise above her birth caste–and she knows it.
All of her plans fall to dust when she opens a portal within her refrigerator, turning her macaroni and cheese casserole into a sentient being. By dawn the next day, the mysterious dae have come to Earth to stay. Hundreds of thousands of people vanish into thin air, and as the days pass, the total of the missing number in the millions. Some say it’s the rapture of the Christian faith.
Alexa knows better: their dae ate them, leaving behind nothing more than dust as evidence of their hunger.
As one of the unawakened, she doesn’t have a dae, nor can she manifest any forms of magical powers. She’s lacking the innate knowledge of what the dae are and what they mean for the world. Now more than ever, she is an outsider. Her survival hinges on her ability to adapt to a world she no longer understands.
Unfortunately, one of the dae has taken notice of her, and he’ll stop at nothing to have her. Alexa’s problems pile up as she’s forced to pick her allegiances. Will she submit to the new ways of the world? Will she become some monster’s pawn? Or, against all odds, can she forge her own path and prove normal humans can thrive among those gifted with powers once the domain of fantasies and nightmares?
Oh my... Her mac and CHEESE?!?! Holy crap that's original. Lol!! Put down the screwdriver! That alone would do it ;) Excitement is tingling through me. Welcome to the madness! I can't wait to take a bite outta this one :) Thanks for the pitch. I hope you hang out and have some fun around here :)
DeleteI think I shall! There have been a lot of fun and interesting looking books pitched, and I will probably grab a bunch for myself as an early xmas present to me! :)
DeleteWelcome to my world. Once you leave, you can't escape. :waggles eyebrows:
Congratulations to the winner and to all that pitched their books for Day One!
ReplyDeleteHello again, Jo. :) Thank you for all that you do for us Indies, the support is beyond appreciated!!
Day two I am pitching my newest release, Holiday's Presence. It's a Contemporary Romance with very likable characters that I believe readers will fall in love with as I have. Holiday [Holli] is faced with news from her doctor that completely changes her life and she takes a couple chances that she wouldn't normally have in her life. She meets a handsome and charming man during her life-changing journey and things become something she's never experienced before. Holiday is a kind soul that deserves more than what she's been handed and Parker is just that for her.
There's some good, bad, and real incorporated in the story with a touch of steam and a healthy dose of romance.
I think you'll enjoy this story because it's one to get you in the spirit and prove that true love really does exist.
It's a short story but it does have depth.
Again, J.N. Sheats is also the book cover creator for this book... she's the best!
Thank you for taking the time to consider my novella!
- Angel L. Woodz
Welcome back, Angel!! :) This one sounds awesome, too! Gah! I'm reading through all the samples over the weekend, and I don't know how I'm gonna freaking choose just twelve! :( #ReaderProblems Thank you for coming back around :)
DeleteI understand how that can be tough! Thanks for the consideration!! :)
DeleteAs an FYI: This post is the pitch post through Sunday night at midnight. :) Had to have some days to read stuff this year and catch up!!! Happy pitching!
ReplyDeleteI have to post for a wonderful new young indie author who is having computer issues at the moment. Right now the only book she's got out is hardback, but will be out on Amazon and the rest very soon. Shout out for Dranyx Wicked. Stop by her Facebook and site. You'll love the site she's put a huge amount of work into the site and this, her first book. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteHi, Jo and thank you for this opportunity.
ReplyDeleteI will be pitching my first adult fantasy novel, The Rise of Nazil. It is the first in my series with three completed works and one in progress. The Rise of Nazil was written over a decade ago. However, I was finally convinced to publish and am thrilled with that decision.
We begin in the lands of Faélondul.
The mysteries surrounding the inhabitants are many as is the intricate plot. The land of Faélondul is inhabited by humans, Nazilians, and other fascinating creatures. The Nazilians hold rule over the lands and brutalize the humans. Some of the treatment is savage as they take them as slaves. Led by the priestly caste called the Cha, the Nazilians are ruthless, feared, and cunning.
However, not all Nazilians are in line with their leader, the Zaxson, Draizeyn Vereux. And this is where the tale truly begins—with a choice.
Pentanimir is the First Chosen of Nazil and pledged to the Zaxson’s daughter. It is through him this epic journey manifests. When the Zaxson wages a war against the humans, only Pentanimir and others guided by the Guardians and Protectors rise against them. In doing so, some ancient myths and legends are proven true.
The love of the First Chosen and the human, Brahanu is the catalyst for the liberation of the lands. Will it also lead to its destruction?
The Rise of Nazil will transport you to another land with fascinating characters, worlds, and languages. The plot is detailed and engrossing. If you are a lover of adult high fantasy, Faélondul will take hold of you and not let go.
Thank you and great success to all.
Aaron-Michael Hall
Welcome to the madness, Aaron! I do love high fantasy, and this sounds right in my wheelhouse. :) All great stories start with a choice, no? :) Excellent pitch, by the way. Thanks for stopping by and telling me about your novel. I do hope you have some fun over the next couple of weeks! :)
DeleteSounds good. Thank you.
