Sinful Seconds Share & Win Giveaway #prizes!

How the giveaway works:Each time you spread the word about SINFUL SECONDS being on sale, it counts as an entry to the giveaway. For example: See the cover on the left? You can post the cover and/or Sinful Seconds retail links on Facebook. You can tweet about the release. You can change your twitter avatar to the cover, blog about it, change your facebook profile picture to the cover, etc. Another way? You can add it to your Goodreads to-be-read list if you haven’t already. Have you already read it? Feel free to leave a review!! See the picture below with the covers? Feel free to post that on FB, twitter, pin it, etc. Or tell your neighbors and friends about it! Any form of sharing counts. Open until March 22, 2014 at 11:59:59 PM Central.
How to enter: Just post a note in the comments section stating what you’ve done to be entered. You can share on multiple days. For all you tweeters, please use the hashtag #SinfulSeconds so I can log your entries from twitter. It's as simple as that to enter! (Please include your email address so I have a way to contact you if you are a winner) NOTE: only TWO tweets each day are counted as entries. I certainly appreciate the others but to keep from flooding people’s tweet streams, I’m limiting it to two.

One winner: $10 Amazon or BN eGift card
One winner: $15 Amazon or BN eGift card
One winner: $20 Amazon or BN eGift card
One winner: $25 Amazon or BN eGift card
One winner: $30 Amazon or BN eGift card
Once I’ve organized all the entries, the random winners will be drawn and announced here within a week of the contest closing. As always, if you have any questions please ask! Thanks for helping me spread the word about the Sinful Seconds release!

Sweetest Surrender pre-order live on Amazon & up on Net Galley

Release date is March 30, 2014.
Sweetest Surrender:
A woman on the run…
Angel has been on her own for two years, moving from place to place to outrun her past. With no family and few friends to lean on, she’s managed to keep her secrets and stay safe. But when her past suddenly catches up to her, she has a choice to make. Run or stay and claim her life once more.
He’ll stop at nothing to protect her…
Vadim has never let anyone close to him—until Angel. From the first time he met her, everything changed. As a private consultant for Wyatt Christiansen, he’s good with computers and he’s got connections to unearth people’s deepest, darkest secrets. When Angel’s life is threatened Vadim steps in and uses all his resources to end the threat once and for all. As the danger closes in, he lies to her in an effort to protect her, not realizing that even once the threat is eliminated, he might lose her anyway.
Author note: Sweetest Surrender is the third book in The Serafina: Sin City series but can be read as a stand-alone.
