LAST CHANCE TO WIN!


If you're heading to Readers and Writers Down Under on the Gold Coast this March you could win a limited edition Eraser: The Complete Collection paperback!  For every book pre-ordered, or sold on the day, you will earn one free entry into the draw... 


(You can take a sneak peak at the paperback on this post.)

However, due to the fact I order these books from overseas I need to place that order for stock now.  I will be selling a limited number of books at the table on the day of the signing, but if you would like to guarantee your purchase you will need to pre-order.

Payment is not required until the end of Feb, however the form will be closing late tomorrow night (Jan 31).  So this is your last chance!



You can place your pre-order HERE.

How to Liv Anniversay Celebration!


How to Liv is already one year old!  Doesn't time fly?  To celebrate the anniversary of publishing this novel I'm declaring it 'Joel & Liv Week'.  For the next seven days I'll be sharing quotes, excerpts and teasers on my Facebook page to celebrate this sweet Aussie couple.




Let's kick off the week with a couple of firsts...

* Up until this point, How to Liv has only available from Amazon.  I'm currently in the process of getting this changed.  In the next few days (hopefully) How to Liv will be published on iBooks, Barnes & Noble and Kobo for the first time!!!  I'll let you know when that happens, in the mean time you can still purchase from Amazon...



* Already read it?  Then I have a treat for you!  For the first time ever you can read a bonus chapter for How to Liv. I initially posted this as a Valentine's Day present for my street team but now I've tweaked it and made it available to you all.  Be warned though, it's for adults only, contains nudity, daggy music, soppy romance and yummy, yummy chocolate used in unconventional ways. This chapter slots in between the end and the epilogue, so of course it contains spoilers for those that haven't read the book (which I highly recommend you do, of course!).  Click on the image below:



What's better than a giveaway?  TWO GIVEAWAYS!  I have two Rafflecopter giveaways that will conclude at the end of 'Joel & Liv Week'.  Here are the first prize packs:

COVER REVEAL & GIVEAWAY ~ A Stone in the Sea by A. L. Jackson



I'm excited to share the cover of this brand new series by super talented A.L. Jackson

A Stone in the Sea will Release on Feb 23




He wanted nothing at all...

Until he found she had everything to give…

Sunder lead singer and guitarist Sebastian Stone has everything—fans, fame, and fortune. He also has a heart full of bitterness and a reputation for a short-fused temper. But an outward reputation rarely reveals the true man inside. Facing assault charges after trying to protect his younger brother, Sebastian is sent to Savannah, Georgia to lie low until the dust settles in L.A.

Shea Bentley is beautiful, kind, and hiding from the very lifestyle Sebastian has always embraced.

When the mysterious, tattooed stranger begins hanging out at the bar where she works, Shea is quick to recognize he is nothing but trouble, but she's helpless to the way her body lights up every time his intense gray eyes tangle with hers.

They both soon find themselves drowning in a sea of desire and passion that won’t let them up for air.

Sebastian knows firsthand secrets never die, and he’s not the only one who’s hiding them.

Loving someone always comes with a price. But will it be Shea’s past that costs them everything?





Get a first look at A Stone in the Sea with Chapter 1 & 2 revealed on these blogs:











A.L. Jackson is the New York Times bestselling author of Take This Regret and Lost to You, as well as other contemporary romance titles, including If Forever Comes, Pulled and When We Collide, as well as the New Adult Romance Come To Me Quietly due out January 7, 2014. 


She first found a love for writing during her days as a young mother and college student. She filled the journals she carried with short stories and poems used as an emotional outlet for the difficulties and joys she found in day-to-day life.

Years later, she shared a short story she’d been working on with her two closest friends and, with their encouragement, this story became her first full length novel. A.L. now spends her days writing in Southern Arizona where she lives with her husband and three children. Her favorite pastime is spending time with the ones she loves.

GOING TO RWDU? I HAVE AN EXCLUSIVE GIVEAWAY JUST FOR YOU!

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO WIN A SIGNED, LIMITED EDITION 'ERASER: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION' PAPERBACK?

Read on!

I wanted to see what the whole Eraser series would look like in one pretty package.  So I created the cover...



Wrote the blurb:


He was the man with no name …
Sexy, demanding, mysterious

From behind the bar, she knew his routine – with the lift of his

finger, scotch and women were his.

She knew his game and she was willing to play.

Yet for Mackenzie, one encounter wasn’t enough.

She was hooked and he was

the drug that she craved.

He told her one night, no repeats,

but Mackenzie had captured his attention.

As a businessman, he wasn’t opposed to bending the rules

to get deals done … but for her he might just break them.

Nothing about staking his claim on the intelligent and beautiful

Mackenzie was going to be simple.

Desire and need they have,

it’s honesty and trust they need to work on.
And secrets always have a way of complicating things ...


And filled in the pages with all sorts of finer details...




to make one special book to sit on my shelf!

The almost 500 pages of 'Eraser: The Complete Collection' printed paperback turned out like this:



At this point in time I have no intention of making this available as a title for sale.  It was purely a fun project for myself.

HOWEVER, I happen to have a spare proof copy.  So if you're attending the Readers and Writers Downunder 2015 Event in Queensland this March you have a chance to WIN it!!!

Here's how:

* Every book purchased at the event will earn ONE raffle ticket entry into the draw (buy two books, get two chances, three books, three chances, etc.)

* Books can either be purchased on the day (I will have limited stock available for sale) or be pre-ordered HERE

* The raffle will be drawn at the end of the RWDU event on Saturday 28th of March, 2015

* The winner will be notified via SMS and will need to collect the book from me in Queensland


GOOD LUCK!!!
