Hey everyone! Rock Chick Fairy here.
Today marks the start of my very own "Rock Chick Treats Saga".
I have been using the coined term, "Rock Chick" of one of the best authors in the land of fiction (which is very lucky to have her, really), KRISTEN ASHLEY for about 7 months now. I know it seems like a short time, but it feels a like a lifetime to me already. I wear my fairy name like a badge and I always, always try to live up to the name because God knows there is a certain responsibility when you're a Rock Chick. If you are a K.A. fan, you certainly would appreciate this. Anyway, back in June, a certain someone replied to my e-mail which made my entire year (I promise!). She was talking about me and the other fairies starting the blog... She told me that since I put my love for books in writing, it's a guaranteed winner. I took that to heart and here we are now. シ
I've been waiting for a long time to have the chance to share her books more and share my love for her characters more. She's so popular now, but I would still like to do something for her and her books (even if it's in a small scale). Now that the blog is already past that 6 month mark, I think it's time to start. From this month onward, I will host my very own giveaway saga for my beloved author. Every month, I will give away e-books/physical books/gc's in honor of KRISTEN ASHLEY. This is just for the love of reading and from my belief that her books are really worth reading and re-reading (a thousand times).
We shall start with her new book... DEACON!!! I am personally giving away 3 e-copies of this book on its release day (09.23.14)!!!
Deacon has an ugly history, a history that broke him, leaving him a ghost of a man. Out of necessity, he left the normal world to descend into the criminal world and found he fit. So he stayed. Cold as ice and living off the grid, Deacon has no intention to connect, not with anyone.
Then he returns to some remote cabins in the Colorado Mountains and finds they have new owners. One of them is Cassidy Swallow, a young woman willing to work hard to live her quiet dream in a house by a river surrounded by aspen and pine.
Suddenly, Deacon finds he’s at war. Cassidy’s pull for him to connect is strong. He fights it, but he loses, always coming back for more. But when he does, he gives her nothing.
From the first time she sees him, Cassidy knows Deacon is dead inside. She knows he’s the kind of man who could destroy a woman. But one night when Deacon’s control slips, Cassidy takes a chance.
He might break her. He also might be her dream come true.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Kristen Ashley was born in Gary, Indiana, USA. She nearly killed her mother and herself making it into the world, seeing as she had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck (already attempting to accessorise and she hadn't taken her first breath!).
Kristen grew up in Brownsburg, Indiana but has lived in Denver, Colorado and the West Country of England. Thus she has been blessed to have friends and family around the globe. Her posse is loopy (to say the least) but loopy is good when you want to write.
Kristen was raised in a house with a large and multi-generational family. They lived on a very small farm in a small town in the heartland and existed amongst the strains of Glenn Miller, The Everly Brothers, REO Speedwagon and Whitesnake (and the wardrobes that matched).
Needless to say, growing up in a house full of music, clothes and love was a good way to grow up.
And as she keeps growing up, it keeps getting better.

this girl is a KA ADDICT! I need serious intervention and I can't even begin to tell you how much I love and adore her! She's in my top 5 on my bucketlist! THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteI understand the thing about the bucket list! I want to meet her in person one day!!! ^_______^

Good luck!

I've been waiting for Deacon since I finished Raid. The sneak peak......yummmmm
ReplyDeleteYumm indeed!!! ^_^
DeleteCan't wait for Deacon!! Love any KA books. Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMe too! All of them! :) Good luck!
DeleteKA's novels are some of the best written. She inspires woman's and girls self -esteem and issues, society ignores or keeps making the problems worse. KA makes her stand out views within the novels and especially in her worlds,which Deacon takes place in. You don't have to be a hero to be someone's hero. Just be you!
ReplyDeleteI TOTALLY AGREE! Her works inspire women to stand up for who they are and what they want. I love, love how she weaves her character, but I am especially proud how she makes sure to make them all unique, Plain amazing. Just plain amazing! :)

I'm such a huge fan. I can't wait for Deacon
ReplyDeleteME TOO!! ^_^
DeleteI was hooked from the first page of the first Kristen Ashely book I read. It was Rock Chick. I love all her books.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for Deacon! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Good luck! ^_^
DeleteKristen Ashley never disappoints! I'm excited for Deacon :)
ReplyDeleteI agree 100%!!! :)
DeleteI've been waiting for this book for a long time. I really wish to win this book. I've never been this book lover as I am today but since I have come across KA's book, I feel like I have been dazed. I can't even stop myself from reading all her books in just one go.. And when I finished reading all her books, I keep on re-reading and re-reading them. I think I caught a "Kristen Ashley bug" but come to think of it...I don't want to get cure. 😍
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to read this! I'm just like you! Did you know that we actually have a KA SUPPORT GROUP? This is an addiction and it needs support from fellow Rock Chicks. Here's the link to the group: https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/66492-kristen-ashley-addict-s-support-group :)
DeleteBest of luck! ^_^
