Obsidian and Pure Giveaway and Excerpt - UPDATED

I'm so very excited to be able to host a giveaway for TWO ARCs of Obsidian, especially since print ARCs are very, very limited. Heck, e - ARCSs are going to be limited. Contest details will be below, and guys, since these ARCs are limited, the contest is going to be ... different and fun.


And I'm giving away the VERY FIRST e-ARC of Pure. Yeah, as in the sequel to Half-Blood. Didn't see that coming, did you?

Not only that, but I'm going to be sharing an excerpt from Obsidian. The very first ever to be shared.  EEP. Ready to meet Daemon and Katy?

Eyes still on me, he tipped his desk forward even further. "Guess what?"
"What?"
"I checked out your blog."
Oh. Dear. Baby. Jesus. How did he find it? Wait. More importantly was the fact that he had found it. Was my blog now googleable? That was awesome sauce with an extra heaping of sauce. "Stalking me again, I see. Do I need to get a restraining order?"
"In your dreams, kitten." He smirked. "Oh wait, I'm already starring in those, aren't I?"

AND WHAT DO YOU THINK WAS KATY'S RESPONSE?





How to enter:
1. You MUST comment on THIS Blog
2. You MUST tweet about this contest using one of many social media sites
 with the #obsidian hashtag
3. YOU MUST include the link to your post or social media and/or tweet in THIS comment so I can verify
4. After reading the excerpt, what do you think Katy's next response was? Leave what you think in the comments!


Who can enter?
Contest is International
Winners picked by random
Begins 09/20 and ends 10/19 12:01am EST

What is up for Grabs?
Two print ARCs of Obsidian
An E-ARC of Pure to one winner
Three massively huge swag packs from me and various other authors. 




PS Don't forget you can enter the Goodreads contest going on now for Obsidian also.

    Ok, so I obviously shared. http://twitter.com/#!/Leecheeeee_3LB/status/116276854209515520

    Even though I want the prize all to myself. And she's either going to say something snarky, judging from her earlier response, or she will blush and fall off her chair in embarrassment. For the sake of feminism, let's not hope the latter.

    Katie's response? Huh. I really have no idea. Maybe something like "You're mistaken. You're not anywhere near my dreams. It's Damon Salvatore. Unfortunately, you and him share the same name. Fortunately? That's really all you share."

    Okay, so I have a feeling that isn't her response, but it would be mine :D
