ETA…contest is now over and winner’s name to be posted shortly!<\/em><\/span> To avoid confusion, comments are now closed…<\/p>\n

The contests kinda took a hiatus over the summer.\u00a0 Insane summer.\u00a0 Fun, but glad it’s over.\u00a0 And I might be eventually recover.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

I need to get the contests rolling again, but instead of running the two separate ones, I’m going to combine them…as in an ebook I recently read will be the book of the month<\/a> and it will also be the prize for this month’s ebook giveaway<\/a>.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 Well, I loved the ebook and this way I can be lazy and kill two birds with one stone.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Assassin Journals: Hunter<\/em> is romantic SF…not SF romance, but romantic SF and the distinction is pretty important because if you go into the book expecting the typical hero, you’re not going to find him.<\/p>\n

However, if you read the book expecting an engaging story with vvvverrryyyyy interesting main character, great world building and some unexpected twists and turns, you’re going to find that and more.<\/p>\n

The blurb from Samhain’s site:<\/p>\n

An assassin can\u2019t afford a conscience. It\u2019s bad for business.<\/p>\n

Ex-soldier turned assassin Gage Brassan is having a very bad year. First, an unwelcome attack of conscience has him switching targets at the last moment, which doesn\u2019t sit too well with the criminal organization that hired him. Then an old girlfriend\u2019s betrayal and a trip to prison stir up memories of his military past and a promise left unfulfilled.<\/p>\n

Tortured by his haunted past and hunted by the organization he betrayed, Gage seeks the truth behind the execution of the elite military patrol he once commanded. With the help of Jak, a Rigian street kid, and Joanna, the sister of an old army buddy, Gage follows the blood trail from the war-torn Androsian system to the highest echelons of the Galactic Security Force to the corrupt halls of the Rigian People\u2019s Palace.<\/p>\n

On the run, unsure whom he can trust, he struggles with a growing attraction to Joanna while trying to protect his estranged father from the personal fallout of a life gone wrong.<\/p>\n

He knows the answers are out there. The trick will be living long enough to find them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I picked this up back when it first came out and it sat on my Reader for months.\u00a0 Now I’m wondering why.\u00a0 F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C. book.\u00a0 Loved it.<\/p>\n

So, if you want to give it try…well, you can go buy it now<\/a>…or you can enter to win it from me.\u00a0 Just drop a note in the comments and in November, I’ll draw a winner.\u00a0\u00a0 (Please bear in mind…November is going to be a month of chaos, so I’m not exactly sure when I’ll draw the winner’s name…probably during the second week.)<\/p>\n

Standard contest rules apply… open to anybody and everybody.\u00a0 The contest is for a download of the book, no substitutions offered.\u00a0 Please check back to see if you’ve won.\u00a0 Only one entry per household…yadda, yadda, yadda.\u00a0 If you’re new to my contests, you can check out the disclaimer page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Okay guys…fire away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
