Make Mondays Suck Less Giveaway: HEREAFTER

Hellooooooo, all you pretty people! It's Monday again. I know...we've got to stop meeting under these circumstances. But once again, this Monday doesn't suck for me (can you tell I'm an eternal optimist?). It's the last day of September, which means tomorrow is October! And also my birthday! That's not the only reason it's the best month in the history of ever, though. It's also the month I got married in and delivered one of my children in. And it's fall! There are leaves and sweaters and boots and that wonderful smell! Plus: HALLOWEEN! My second favorite holiday, coming in after Christmas, because obviously.

This last week flew by, as one does when work is being done. I'm starting preparations for a blog tour and promo for my upcoming release, Season of Second Chances, out in a stand alone novella, and also as part of All I'm Asking For: A Contemporary Christmas Anthology. Both of those are now available for pre-order on Amazon (whee!). I'm waiting (not-so-) patiently for cover art on that, and as soon as I'm able, I'll share what we've got.

I've also been working hard on my new adult novel, with suggestions from Mandy. I'm polishing it up and reworking bits and sort of piecing together the rest. I find this to be the most difficult part of editing, trying to fit everything back together when you've changed something even just a smidgen, but ultimately, I know it will be a better book when it's all said and done.

Last week, I had a fabulous giveaway of FANGIRL by Rainbow Rowell, and decided to do that before everything came out about the whole MN school nonsense. And it really is. ELEANOR & PARK is an amazing book. One of my favorites this year, and while it absolutely deserves the attention it's getting, it doesn't deserve the stem of that attention. If you haven't had the opportunity to read E&P, do yourself a favor and buy it--that's right, just buy it. Don't check it out from the library, because I promise you you'll love it that much.

What's that? You wanna know who the winner is? Welp, congrats Heather W.! Hope your Monday doesn't suck with this win under your belt.

This week's giveaway is an ARC of HEREAFTER by Kate Brian, due out tomorrow.


Rory Miller thought her life was over when a serial killer set his sights on her and forced her into witness protection.
But a fresh start on Juniper Landing Island was exactly what she and her family needed. For the first time in years she and her sister hang out at the beach, gossip about boys, and party together. She's also made friends with a local clique--including a magnetic and mysterious boy named Tristan. 

But Rory's world is about to change again. Picturesque Juniper Landing isn't what it seems. The truth about the swirling fog that rolls in each morning, the bridge that leads to nowhere, and those beautiful locals who seem to watch Rory's every move is more terrifying than being hunted by Steven Nell. And all Rory ever wanted was the truth. Even if it means learning that she can never go home again. 


From the best-selling author of the Private and Privilege series comes the second novel in a heart-stopping trilogy about a girl who must pick up the pieces after the only life she's ever known ends.

You know the drill. Rafflecopter down below. I'll see you next week.
