TRICK Holiday Giveaway

Hi, my friends! I’m hosting a giveaway to celebrate the wintry season and the release of TRICK!

One winner will receive:

A signed paperback copy

A cute castle key chain / ornament

A TRICK-themed bookmark

And Poet’s red ribbon bracelet (wrap-around style)

Guidelines:

You must be 18 years or older to enter, or have your parent’s permission. This book is Mature YA.

You do not need to be following me, but it would be very much appreciated.

Either reblog and/or like this post to enter. Multiple reblogs are okay.

Do NOT leave personal information in reblogs.

Giveaway is open to U.S. residents only. (I’m so sorry, but the cost of international shipping is an unfortunate reality.)

No purchase necessary. Giveaway is void where prohibited.

Giveaway ends on Thursday, December 10th, at 11:59 pm Pacific.

The winner will be chosen randomly—which I will announce the next day—and then they’ll have 48 hours to respond before a new winner is chosen.

TRICK:

There is a rule amongst his kind: A jester doesn’t lie. In the kingdom of Whimtany, Poet is renowned. He’s young and pretty, a lover of men and women. He performs for the court, kisses like a scoundrel, and mocks with a silver tongue. Yet allow him this: It’s only the most cunning, most manipulative soul who can play the fool. For Poet guards a secret. One the Crown would shackle him for. One that he’ll risk everything to protect. Alas, it will take more than clever words to deceive Princess Briar. Convinced that he’s juggling lies as well as verse, this righteous nuisance of a girl is determined to expose him. But not all falsehoods are fiendish. Poet’s secret is delicate, binding the jester to the princess in an unlikely alliance … and kindling a breathless attraction, as alluring as it is forbidden. *Mature YA: sexual content and language. Intended for readers 17 and older*

So that’s it. Happy holidays!
