Book Blitz & Giveaway ~ Leon’s Way by Sunniva Dee

Leon’s Way by Sunniva Dee

Publication date: December 19th 2014
Genres: New Adult, Romance

I’m Leon , number one object of Deepsilver’s rumor mill. Owner of student hotspot, Smother.
Since I was sixteen, the world has been mine. I do everything—
My way.
Every co-ed in town clenches her thighs over me, but most don’t fit the bill. See, I like my girls broken . Once I detect my shade of don’t-give-a-fuck damaged, I fight hard, I fight dirty, and I don’t give up until—
I conquer.
Drunk fathers and frequent beatings don’t merit attention, but when my despicable dad starts the process of croaking, I’m forced to remember. Thus, the downward spiral begins: my latest broken-girl turns the tables on me and splits. My hot-as-hell employee, Arriane, throws me the curve ball of a lifetime. And suddenly—
I’m out of control.
But at the center of my chaos, she exists. Always close, always sweet, and so beautifully fucking… wholesome. She represents everything I’ve shied from in a woman. Still—
I crave her.
I’m Leon, and I don’t deny my cravings. Just—this girl is not surrendering. So here I am, fighting harder. Fighting dirtier. And goddammit all, I will—
Conquer.

AUTHOR BIO:

Originally from Norway, I moved to the United States twelve years ago. I hold a Master’s degree in languages and taught Spanish at college level before settling in at the Savannah College of Art and Design as an adviser.

I write New Adult fiction, sometimes with a paranormal twist—like in “Shattering Halos,” published by The Wild Rose Press in February 24th 2014 and in “Stargazer,” released November 2014. The first book I’ve self-published was the New Adult Contemporary novel “Pandora Wild Child,” which made me a proud indie author in October 28th 2014.

I specialize in impulsive heroines, bad-boys, and good-boys running amok. Then, there’s the intense love, physical and emotional attraction beyond reason—sensory overload for the reader as well as for the characters. Like in real life, I hope you’re unable to predict what comes next in my stories.

Yes, so I write what I love to read, and depending on the reader, you’ll find my books to be a fast-paced emotional rollercoaster—or disturbing because the struggles of love aren’t your thing. Here’s to hoping you have the same reading vice as me!

Plagiarism... and a GIVEAWAY!

We all know about book pirating and that it's an absolutely despicable thing to do, but have you ever heard of review plagiarism?
 
I heard about it happening to a blogger last year - evidently a review she posted on her blog was copy and pasted by someone and written up as their own review on Amazon! I was amazed that anyone would bother to do this; I mean why fake a review?

Well early last week, one of my reviews was plagiarized!!
That's right, nearly my entire review had been copy and pasted, and passed off on another blog as their own!
I know what you're thinking, WTF?!?!
How did you find out? What did you do? How did you fix it?...

Well, someone who is familiar with my blog read this other review and was shocked to discover that at least three bloggers in all, had parts of their reviews mashed together and published on a Romanian book blog. 
After this friend contacted me, I took a look for myself and was absolutely gob-smacked. What kind of person does this? 
Needless to say I immediately sent an email to the blog owner, asking them to remove the plagiarized review and for an explanation.

Many emails later I can tell you this: The blogger originally contacted the author and requested to do an interview and book review on her blog. 
The blogger, having run short on time gave the book to someone else to read/review and insists that it is her friend that plagiarized the review, even though the blogger published the review as her own. 
The blogger has not as yet actually read the book in question and so can't write a fresh and honest review of her own at this time. 
The blogger had the gall to try and make me feel bad for her being found out as a plagiarizer! 
The plagiarized review has now been removed. 

In the end a good result but I'm still kind of gutted. The book in question, got a 5 star review from me - I absolutely loved it and I'm really pissed that the book and the author have been cheated this way. 

Yeah, I was a bit shocked and angry about my review being pinched, but at the end of the day, I feel bad for the author most of all :(

This brings me to the giveaway section of this post :)

I'm going to give away, three (3) kindle copies of the book that got shafted out of its honest review... but I'm not going to tell you which book it is, that's for the winners to find out!! *if the winners have already read said book, I'll substitute it for a gift card to the equivalent value*

Beautiful, wild-chid Nicole Tepper is hit by a car and left for dead. But when she wakes the next morning, Nicole finds herself in bed without a scratch. Perhaps she was more intoxicated than usual, as her mother is giving her the silent treatment and her friends are ignoring her as well. 

Things take a turn for the weird when Nicole soon discovers she is actually hovering between life and death. Her body is lying in the forest while her spirit is searching for anyone who can hear her. Unfortunately the only person who can is Dale Finnigan, the guy she publicly humiliated with a sharp-tongued insult that has left him branded.

Desperate, Nicole has no choice but to haunt Dale and convince the freaked-out senior to help her. Will he find her body before it's too late? Or will the guy who tried to kill her with his car, beat him there and finish her off before anyone finds out?

Bryn Halbrook had always seen the glow. But it is only when her best friend dies that she discovers the meaning of those beautiful golden auras--Death. Alone, lost in the foster system, she struggles to understand who she is and why she was cursed with the ability to see the soon-to-be-dead.

The new foster kid, Aidan, isn't helping any. Mr. Perfect seems to fit in no matter what, making her feel even more pathetic. But when his affections turn to her, Bryn finds him hard to resist. Impossible, actually. A mystery himself, Aidan disappears, leaving behind a broken heart and a mysterious book that suggests Bryn might not be entirely human.

Bryn stands at the threshold of a journey of discovery. Will destiny help her find herself, find her purpose and her place in a world in which she'd never belonged?
