Random Giveaway for A Holy Maiden's Guide to Getting Kidnapped
Thanks to my wonderful artist friends, I have created an awesome collection of merchandise for my book, A Holy Maiden's Guide to Getting Kidnapped.
Tumblr media
I'd like to send some merch to my awesome readers and as a way to celebrate reviews. I will be giving out one of the pieces of merchandise above for each review I get across Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Goodreads. (This means reviews with text, not just ratings, even if it's only a sentence. The same review posted in two places counts twice.) You do NOT have to submit a review to enter the contest. I want everyone to have a chance. However it would be easy to game the system: if you submit the same review on all three platforms, then I will give out merchandise to three people, and you're very likely to be one of them. I doubt many people are going to want my merchandise if they haven't even read my book. If I get more reviews than entries to this contest, then everyone gets merchandise! This will probably be the random giveaway you are the most likely to win in your entire life.
I have a policy of never reading reviews, so please be honest. Of course, I will be very happy if you leave a review even if you don't want the merchandise. Reviews are very important to help me become visible, especially on amazon where enough reviews triggers appearing on email lists and advertisements.
To enter, fill out the google form below. It requires your address to ship the merchandise to you, but this will not put you on a mailing list. I have no mailing list. The form will allow everyone to pick a favorite from the merch options above: Four bookmarks on the top, two stickers in the middle, one fridge magnet in the very middle, and two postcards in the bottom. I must limit the magnets to people in the U.S. because of cost and I don't have faith they can survive international mail.
This giveaway will close in two weeks, or sooner if I run out of merchandise. I doubt I will run out, but I will cover myself just in case.

Summary:
A Holy Maiden should never drink, get kidnapped, nor kiss a Dark Lord, but Ysabel is breaking all the rules to escape her fate as a human sacrifice.
In a world where magical powers are commonplace, Holy Maiden Ysabel is revered as a goddess among her people. She's the only one able to heal the sick and injured with a simple touch. But her spectacular gift comes at a steep price. For each person she saves, she loses a day of her own conscripted life. To add insult to injury, she's supposed to maintain a pure image even though she'd rather drink and play dominatrix until her sorrows fade away.
After the corrupt Head Cardinal Jiang abuses her gift, forbids her from leaving the city, and takes her brother hostage, Ysabel doesn't dare drag anyone else into her problems—especially since it won't change her fate. But when Dark Lord Kaine arrives at her clinic doorstep grievously wounded, she's touched by his refusal to accept her healing lest it cost her another day of her life.
The mysterious and sexy Dark Lord awakens forbidden desires in Ysabel, and the nagging survival instinct she tried to drown with booze and drugs comes back with a vengeance. She's less impressed, however, when he threatens to sack her city in return for his injuries. Fortunately, she can flirt her way to an alliance against the Head Cardinal instead.
Armed with only a ferociously loyal female bodyguard named Alzira, Ysabel attempts to make the most of her mere months left to live, protect the refugees around her city, prevent a war, and hide her face blindness. But before her life flickers to its sad end, she must decide: either die a proper Holy Maiden or risk it all to run off with Kaine.

Summary:
After Bora swaps bodies with a ruthlessly homicidal duchess, the sweet-tempered wallflower must embrace her inner villainess if she wants to survive and save her country.
Within an hour of Bora’s arrival in Arahasnor, she runs into her toxic ex-boyfriend, offends a malicious noblewoman, and narrowly escapes from the city guards. Bora has never been the type to have adventures, unlike her sister Holy Maiden Ysabel who left the family farm and scandalously eloped with Dark Lord Kaine. As usual, Bora intends to flee back home into her role as the plain, boring sister, until a freak magical accident.
Bora suddenly finds herself in the life—and body—of the Blood Duchess, the same woman who threatened to have her killed. The kingdom is on the verge of economic collapse, the citizenry hangs her in effigy, and the staff spit in her food. It’s too much to handle for a farm girl without a mean bone in her body. Unfortunately, the previous ruler sold Arahasnor to three different foreign powers, and only their terror of the Blood Duchess can hold them off…if Bora can pretend to be a villainess.
If Bora’s real identity gets uncovered, she’ll die. At least she’s not alone in this bizarre charade; she has the support of Countess Donya, her heroic celebrity crush. After an assassin named Ari mistakenly targets her for revenge, Bora strikes a deal to find the vanished real duchess in exchange for Ari’s protection. As someone who struggles with bulimia, Bora feels drawn to Ari’s confidence, rakish charm, and gender queerness. A love triangle may be a distraction Bora can’t afford, especially when it turns out her sister is among the enemies coming to town to kill the Blood Duchess.
After spending years obsessing over her weight, the death threats scare Bora less than showing off her extremely generous curves in the Blood Duchess’ lowcut dresses. As she discovers beauty in both her old body and her new one, she might finally be able to love herself and find love. But all corpses look the same, and her appearance will become irrelevant if the duchess’ enemies remove her head from her shoulders.
