It takes place in Saint Augustine, FL, one of America's most haunted city. It is the first of a New Adult trilogy about a cursed man trapped in the city of his death as a ghostly hybrid of a person and the only way for him to break the curse is to kill the woman who holds his heart. <br /><br />Thanks for this giveaway. <br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Ambience-Ghost-Saint-Augustine-Trilogy-ebook/dp/B00H7MYNIY/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=1-1&qid=1386724694<br />Christina Marie Moraleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18375729070209205433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961332566292942537.post-88349606501280943962013-12-14T20:04:28.521-05:002013-12-14T20:04:28.521-05:00It was the sample. :) Very nicely done, Scott! :)It was the sample. :) Very nicely done, Scott! :)Jo Michaelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02005237887461809640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961332566292942537.post-92067756824042610782013-12-14T16:25:16.551-05:002013-12-14T16:25:16.551-05:00Wow.

Thanks for the work you do for Indie authors!<br /><br />I think you should read my book because it's completely different than the books you're used to reading.<br /><br />Imagine an entity that gets insides people's heads and thinks thoughts that they believe to be their own, influencing them to do things they'd naturally be tempted to do, but might have resisted if it was for the extra push. And the entity is doing this to multiple people with the hope of ruining one man's life completely, hoping to make him snap and possibly become homicidal.<br /><br />That's unique, right? :)<br /><br />The title is Devon's Last Chance<br />Link: http://amzn.com/B00BX02NFGEwolfe357https://www.blogger.com/profile/13231158280869354250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961332566292942537.post-81126642849891222902013-12-14T11:55:58.271-05:002013-12-14T11:55:58.271-05:00Sounds like such a cool concept for the holidays! ...Sounds like such a cool concept for the holidays!

But Dexter’s problems have just begun—soon he will have to contend with parasitic brain-eating worms, sinister Longevitals who can live a very long time thanks to a hermetic treatment, a “Twisted Zoo” containing among its horrific exhibits Dexter’s murderous atavistic twin, “spectreholes” that open spectral doorways to other worlds, and a hellish monstrosity older than mankind that is preparing to return to earth and return earth to primordial chaos.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/The-House-of-Worms-ebook/dp/B00BQ6SGGW<br /><br />Note: if you want to pick it up but want to save some money, the book will be on a $.99 Countdown Deal beginning the day after Christmas.Harveyhttp://www.amazon.com/Harvey-Clicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961332566292942537.post-58432512101966676592013-12-14T11:15:21.612-05:002013-12-14T11:15:21.612-05:00Welcome back, Molly!!

There’s only one problem: she’s a girl. Serenias—the high-born women of the city—live tightly laced lives, cloistered by their families before marriage, rigidly controlled by their husbands after.<br /><br />Emmeline watches her twin brother gain success as a professional racing jockey while her own life grows increasingly narrow. Yet her hunger to ride never dies. Ever more stifled by the rules of her life, Emmeline rebels—with stunning consequences.<br /><br />Can her dream to race survive scandal, scrutiny, and heartbreak?<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Velocipede-Races-Emily-June-Street-ebook/dp/B00FT1GKHW/<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Emily June StreetEmily Streethttp://www.luminouscreaturespress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961332566292942537.post-84785754702389427442013-12-14T09:50:19.711-05:002013-12-14T09:50:19.711-05:00Good morning Jo!

I've already pitched my book, but, tying into yesterday, I'll let you know that one of my characters can communicate with animals. I had to do it and it'll probably be a staple in all my books. Anyways, about halfway through, a wolf joins the group. His name is Adok, which is my first dog's name spelt backwards. She was a husky as well and some of the wolf's behaviors are inspired by her, especially in book two when Adok gets more page time.<br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful day!<br />L. K.

Here's the synopsis:<br /><br />The After Life is the story of Nad Raven - a young man, whose childhood is shattered by a cataclysmic event that leaves him trapped in an underground vault with a few other survivors of a modern day apocalypse. It is a tale of a small community that tries to move on after all hope seems to have been wiped out by an all out nuclear war. With our planet turned into a grim wasteland, the protagonist discovers that even in an isolated micro society there is love and hate, grief and happiness, valor and treason as well as that overpowering human temptation to find out what is out there - beyond the safe walls of the underground shelter. To find out, Nad embarks on a dangerous journey that holds many dark secrets... a journey that will change his life forever... <br /><br />All the proceeds from the sale of The After/Life will be donated to an orphanage for children with special needs located in Gyumri town of Armenia. It is a singular institution in the country with over 150 children with disabilities under constant care and attention of professional and dedicated staff.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/After-Life-Odyssey-ebook/dp/B00AYUOCAAAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16346142728636602703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-961332566292942537.post-23111457627282126622013-12-14T09:09:47.702-05:002013-12-14T09:09:47.702-05:00Loving this fun raffle!

I'm back to pitch another book....<br /><br />Sophie Mitchell may be the top marksman on her high school rifle team, but she has bad aim when it comes to boys. Her best friend Cory tells her that she doesn't have to date, but how else is she supposed to fit in? Even her own mother thinks she's eccentric. What eighteen-year-old girl isn't interested in romance? So Sophie devises a plan that will enable her to date even while she remains bullet-proofed from love. As Cory observes her amorous adventures from downrange, he worries that, these days, Cupid might be making armor-piercing bullets.<br /><br />Off Target is a humorous coming-of-age story and a tender romance that can appeal to any adult, young or old, who has ever learned through love. It takes place a few years in the future, but it's not a work of science-fiction. You'll find some interesting minor technological and political changes, however! You can read the free sample here:<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Off-Target-Molly-Taggart-ebook/dp/B00FW6J274/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09967244132335442624noreply@blogger.com
