First of all, congratulations to Mark, the winner of “The Gift”. I generated a random number thanks to Random.Org and he was the winner. Mark, the email has been sent with your gift copy. Enjoy!

This week I’ll be giving away “Snow” by Val Ford. I love her work and she’s a great person. This story takes place in her Dark Horseman universe and is a sort of “what if”.

Here’s a description:

During the ten days surrounding the Solstices, no magic can be used to kill. This puts a serious cramp in Nikki Jeffries’ (aka the Horseman Death) style, since a lot of her magic is based in death. Breaking the Covenant isn’t an option. So when the StarChild sends her to the North Pole to find a missing Earth Lord, Nikki isn’t quite sure what she’s going to do. The North Pole isn’t what she expected; her illusions are destroyed, and she doesn’t know who to trust. Except for her Horse, and a sexy Jack Frost who may be her best ally yet.

So how do you win this one? I love it when people support independent authors. One of the best ways to do that is to review our works. Include a comment on this post with a link to a review or rating you gave an e-book by an independent author and your name will be put in the hat. It doesn’t have to be a new review and it can be a blog post review as well.

So go check out the sample and come back with your link!

I plan on giving away a book a week this year, but none of them will be my own. Why? Well, I believe in helping introduce people to new authors and nothing does that like FREE! The contests will be as simple as leaving a comment on the blog, or showing me that you’ve left a review on Amazon or Smashwords of books you’ve picked up in the past. I’ll try and change things up to keep them interesting, but by and large you won’t have to work hard.

Shoot me an e-mail, a DM, or leave me a comment to enter your book.
