Cover Reveal – Curse of the Granville Fortune by Kelly Hashway and #Giveaway

Welcome to the Cover Reveal forCurse of the Granville Fortune by Kelly Hashwaypresented by Month9Books!Be sure to enter the giveaway found at the end of the post!

Find the fortune, break the curse!

The hunt is on for an ancient treasure tied to nine-year-old J.B.'s family history. He's been having visions that make him sweaty, lightheaded, and certain he’s turning into some kind of freak—or worse, going insane. But things are worse than he imagined. The visions stem from a family curse. An ancient ancestor was accused of stealing the massive Granville fortune, and now J.B.’s entire family will suffer.

To break the curse, J.B. must find and return the Granville’s stolen property. But he's not the only one searching for the treasure. As he sets out on his journey through a dark and foreboding forest, he'll battle his worst fears and fight terrifying creatures along the way. And when he meets two others who share the missing pieces of his visions and suffer from the same curse, the three soon realize they need to work together to break the curse before it's too late.

Reading is a thing of magic. It has allowed me to enter into worlds I never would have known. I’ve cried, laughed, and been scared right alongside my favorite characters. And my hope is that one day kids will do the same for my characters. I want kids to see that reading is one of the greatest gifts. Luckily, my daughter already agrees with me!

Reviews:

"Whitelighter by Angie Derek is a great little read...The family dynamics in Whitelighter are very interesting too, the guilt each character feels is always present but it's something they need to overcome to get out of the next mess alive. Angie Derek wrote in WhiteLighter in such a vivid and interesting way that I really wish Whitelighter was a longer book, I would enjoy reading more of this story, a little more action and more ummm sex is always a good thing!" - Sizzling Hot Books
