The Cutting Edge Giveaway!

Author: Darcia Helle  //  Category: QFB News

Here we are with the unveiling of the cover for my new book The Cutting Edge! First, however, let’s discuss giveaways! I was recently contacted by a representative from CNS stores and given the opportunity to offer my readers a fantastic prize! CSN Stores has over 200 online stores where you can find everything from cookware to cribs to dining room sets and dog beds! The winner will receive a $60 gift certificate from CNS stores. I can’t imagine anyone having trouble spending that! The second place winner will receive a copy of my new book The Cutting Edge. All you have to do to enter is leave a comment!

And now – ta-da – the first look at my new book:

The blurb from the back cover:

My name is Skye Summers. I’m a hairstylist and I can’t stop fantasizing about killing my clients. Not all of them, of course. I only want to kill the ones who irritate me, which, if I’m being honest, is most of them. My occasional fantasies have turned into chronic daydreams. They’re bloody and vivid, like watching a slice-and-dice movie on IMAX.

I also want to kill my husband’s ex-girlfriend. She’s not a client but she tops my list. Eighteen years ago, she gave birth to his daughter and she has tormented him ever since. I should be troubled by this growing desire to use my surgically sharpened shears for more than a haircut. Instead, I wonder how I can get away with it.

Read an excerpt: www.QuietFuryBooks.com/thecuttingedge.html

I will have them available to order from my site within a week. Amazon should have them at around the same time, with Barnes and Noble to follow. I’ll also be making The Cutting Edge available as an e-book download.

***
Please be sure to include your email address in your comment. That’s how CNS will send the winner’s gift certificate, and I will contact the second place winner for a mailing address to ship the book. I will pick the winner on July 7 after 5 PM EST, so enter before then!
***
The winners are:
1st place: Raven
2nd place: Kelly

Thank you all for participating!
