YA Book Bundle Giveaway

What do you do when your newest release is a snow-filled winter book but it's 80+ degrees outside with humidity so high your hair has taken on a new dimension? You host a giveaway of YA winter sports books! I've teamed up with Katie Van Ark and Melanie Hooyenga for a giveaway that's sure to cool you off on even the hottest summer nights.

#CoolReadsHotNights

Beginning TODAY, you can enter to win a paperback copy of each of our books — THE BOY NEXT DOOR, THE SLOPE RULES, and GOLD RUSH — by sharing a picture online of how you enjoy winter in summer. Not sure what that means? Here are a few examples:

- Ice in a glass

- Ice cream scoop/cone

- Snow cone

- Ice skating at your favorite rink

The Rules:

—> Post a picture on Instagram, Twitter, AND/OR Facebook with the hashtag "CoolReadsHotNights" by Sunday, July 23rd.

—> You must live in the US.

It's that easy!

A few more details:

—> You can enter more than once

Midwinter's Eve Giveaway Hop

Welcome to the Midwinter's Eve Giveaway Hop! I'm celebrating the upcoming January 9 release of my new YA romance Gold Rush and giving away a $10 Amazon gift card. Here's a little more about the book!

Liza Petrov's entire life has been about skating and winning her sport's top prize - Olympic gold. She's stayed sheltered inside her bubble, not daring to stray from her destined path.

Until she meets Braden Patrick.

He makes her heart flutter with possibility, and for the first time she gets a taste of a normal teenage life. She longs to have both the boy and the gold, but stepping outside her bubble comes with a price. As Liza begins to question both her future and her past, can she stay focused on the present and realize her ultimate dream?

GOLD RUSH Update

Hi there! It's been a while since I've posted any GOLD RUSH news so I thought I'd give an update. First, in case you haven't heard, GOLD RUSH is a new standalone skating romance I'm working on. Liza from the Edge Series and the Ice Series is the main character, and the story follows her journey toward the 2014 Winter Olympics. It's a spin-off from the other series, but you won't be missing any vital information if you haven't read the other books (but you should definitely consider checking them out!)

Since I was in Courtney and Josh's world for so long, it's taken me a long time to get acquainted with the new characters and to figure out where Liza's story is going. I didn't want to rush the process because I adore Liza and want to give her the amazing story she deserves, so I've been taking my time in settling into this book. I finally feel like I have a really good grasp on Liza's mindset and also the mindset of Braden, the intriguing new boy in her life. I'm really excited about how things are developing between these two!

I don't have a definite release date yet, but I promise to provide more frequent updates about my progress going forward. How about a little teaser to get things started? :)

Thank you as always for being so patient and for being the most awesome readers ever!! I can't tell you how much it means to me to know there are people out there waiting for this book. It is truly a dream come true to know that my books bring people enjoyment! :)

Oh, and before I go, be sure to check back here next week for lots of photos from the 2016 World Figure Skating Championships in Boston! I'm so excited to go back to one of my favorite cities and soak up more writing inspiration!

GOLD RUSH Title Reveal

You met her in the Edge series and watched her grow up in the Ice series. Now Liza steps into the spotlight for her own story.

The official blurb is coming soon!
