Okay! I am hosting the lovely Sarah Ahiers, author of ASSASIN’S HEART!!!
Sarah Ahiers has an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Hamline University and lives in Minnesota with three dogs and a house full of critters. She has a collection of steampunk hats and when she’s not writing she fills her time with good games, good food, good friends and good family. She writes Young Adult and Middle Grade novels and occasionally dabbles in Picture Books. Fantasy is her favorite genre, though she sometimes can be found playing around with Horror and other things that go bump in the night.
And her fabulous books, ASSASIN’S HEART looks a little like this:
Super amazing, right? Here’s a little about it! In the kingdom of Lovero, nine rival Families of assassins lawfully kill people for a price. As a highly skilled member of one of these powerful clans, seventeen-year-old Lea Saldana has always trusted in the strength of her Family. Until she awakens to find them murdered and her home in flames. The Da Vias, the Saldanas’ biggest enemy, must be responsible—and Lea should have seen it coming. But her secret relationship with the Da Vias’ son, Val, has clouded her otherwise killer instinct—and given the Da Vias more reason than ever to take her Family down. Racked with guilt and shattered over Val’s probable betrayal, Lea sets out to even the score, with her heart set on retaliation and only one thought clear in her mind: make the Da Vias pay. With shades of The Godfather and Romeo and Juliet, this richly imagined fantasy from debut author Sarah Ahiers is a story of love, lies, and the ultimate vengeance.
For exclusive content, Sarah has a beautiful inspiration board for ASSASIN’S HEART on Pinterest and you can get to it HERE!!!
AND if you think that sounds (and looks!) good, on top of the YASH prize pack, I am giving away a copy of GLITTER and ASSASIN’S HEART here on my TUMBLR! It’s super easy to enter: before you head on to your next spot, comment here with some sort of sentence indicating that you are entering my contest! This giveaway is international and I’ll be announcing the winner on Monday, October 10th!
So, I know what you’re here for, and I always forget that I don’t know how to make my text different colors on Tumblr, so my secret number is *koffkoff* rather hiding in *koff* plain sight.
*koff* Yeeeeaaaaahhhh. (Hey, no need for this to be HARD.)
So write this number down and click on to your next stop which is the fabulous, amazing, multi-talented, and incredibly nice Tera Lynn Childs!!!!
I’ve read Assassin’s Heart and loved it! I would really love to win my own copy and I’m really interested to read Glitter! Thank you so much for the chance.
