Leap Day Giveaway!

I don't really know why, but I really love Leap Day. Since I had a couple books sitting around for a future giveaway, I figured what better day than Leap Day! The two Paranormal Romance novels are duplicates that I ended up with, and the Paranormal Young Adult is an ARC I rescued from a local used bookstore's bargain bin that I already own a copy of. The two PNRs are brand new, although Ascension's spine was damaged during printing or shipping. The Paranormal YA has obviously been read given where I found it, but is in great condition.

So without further ado, here are the books up for grabs:



There will be two winners:
1. First Place: Blood of the Wicked by Karina Cooper and Ascension by Sable Grace
2. Second Place: Legacies by Mercedes Lackey & Rosemary Edghill (ARC)

To enter the giveaway, just answer the following question: What March release are you most excited for?

2. If you do not want to be entered for both prizes, please let me know. Anyone who doesn't specify will be entered into both.
3. Open to the US only.

5. Winners will be chosen via Random.org.

Title: Blood of the Wicked
Author: Karina Cooper
Summary:

When the world went straight to hell, humanity needed a scapegoat to judge, to blame... to burn.

As an independent witch living off the grid, Jessie Leigh has spent her life running, trying to blend in among the faceless drudges in the rebuilt city. She thought she was finally safe, but now she's been found in a New Seattle strip club -- by a hard-eyed man on a mission to destroy her kind.

A soldier of the Holy Order, Silas Smith believes in the cause: trawling the fringes of society for the murderous witches who threaten what's left of the world. Forced into a twisting web of half-truths and lies, he has to stay close to the most sensuous and electrifying woman he has ever seen and manipulate her into leading him to the witch he has to kill: her brother. Silas doesn't know that Jessie's his enemy, only that he wants her, needs her, even as he lies to her... and must protect her until his final breath.

Title: Ascension
Author: Sable Grace
Summary:

The gates of hell have opened, and one woman will stand in the crossfire as the Dark Breed -- vampyre, demons, shape shifters—and mankind fight their last battle for survival.

Kyana is half Vampyre, half Lychen... and the last of her kind. Determined, dangerous, and damned, she has no love for the mortals who have imprisoned and misused her. But when the Order of Ancients entrusts her with a mission -- to find the key that will send the Dark Breed back into Hell for eternity -- Kyana has no choice but to accept.

She is furious to learn her assignment comes with an escort... Ryker, a demigod and fierce warrior who long ago found a way under her skin and stayed there. In a shaky alliance, they discover an ancient cult with dangerous motive and a god who seeks to destroy all others. And as Kyana begins to feel the heat that threatens to bind her to Ryker, she knows she has to resist. For it could only mean the undoing of them both...

Title: Legacies
Author: Mercedes Lackey & Rosemary Edghill
Summary:

Who -- or what -- is stalking the students at Oakhurst Academy?

In the wake of the accident that killed her family, Spirit White is spirited away to Oakhurst Academy, a combination school and orphanage in the middle of Montana. There she learns she is a legacy -- not only to the school, which her parents also attended, but to magic.

All the students at Oakhurst have magical powers, and although Spirit’s hasn’t manifested itself yet, the administrators insist she has one. Spirit isn’t sure she cares. Devastated by the loss of her family, she finds comfort with a group of friends: Burke Hallows, Lachlann Spears, Muirin Shae, and Adelaide Lake.

But something strange is going on at Oakhurst. Students start disappearing under mysterious circumstances, and the school seems to be trying to cover it up. Spirit and her friends must find out what’s happening -- before one of them becomes the next victim...
