Contest! Free copy of GIVING UP THE V!

I'm so excited for this next release from my friend, Serena Robar. Leave a comment below and you'll be entered to win a free copy!

About GIVING UP THE V:
What’s So Wrong With Waiting?

Spencer Davis just turned sixteen. But unlike most hormonal teenagers who seem obsessed with sex — like her entire crew of friends — Spencer just doesn’t get it. She’d rather wait for the right guy and the right moment. But that moment may be arriving sooner than she’d thought.

Enter Benjamin Hopkins, a new transfer student who seems to have his eyes on our V-card-carrying heroine. He’s gorgeous, funny, suave, athletic, and capable of making Spencer’s knees wobble with a single glance. Spencer has never felt this way about anyone before, but is Ben truly V-worthy?

“This novel stands out for its thorough, no-holds-barred discussion of sex in its many forms—from the ugly to the beautiful.” -Publishers Weekly 6/8/09


About Serena Robar:
I spent my school days addicted to reading romances. Historical. Regencies. Old West, Native American. Pirate. The list goes on. I would tuck a Romance in my open science book and pretend to be following along with class when I was really lost in a fantasy world of happily ever after. Though my knowledge of mitochondria is woefully limited, I can boast a vast array of trivia about the pirate trade of the 16th century, American pioneer life and Regency etiquette of the Ton.

My reading habits have improved much and I still read when I should be doing laundry, making dinner and/or any household chores (we order a lot of pizza). In fact, when I discover a new author I will read their entire backlist non-stop. Literally. I won’t do anything else but read. Addiction is a dangerous thing.

I live in the Pacific Northwest with my husband and three children. Between reading and juggling family, I am hard at work writing. It’s my secret hope that my books will find there way inside text books, sparking the imagination and talent of the next generation of writers. My apologies to teachers everywhere.

Serena is also giving it away for free (the only time Momma would approve): Sign up for her newsletter here, and you are entered to win one of the books she is giving away every day in the month of June. Enter once and you are in the running to win a book every day the entire month of June.

Leave a comment below and you'll be entered in my contest, which ends Sunday, June 21st. Then, after you leave a comment below, double your chances of winning by heading over to Serena's site to win one there! Good luck!

*Contest only open to US and Canada

Hey there, Sonya! It's so good to hear from you!! You're entered in the contest, so maybe you'll get to read the book for free!

What a great cover!! And I had to laugh at Serena's bio. I think we all have a similar addiction--and I can remember hiding many a romance in my school books too.

I did that, too! Or, I put my Pee-Chee around it so it looked like I was engrossed in my homework papers. When I started reading romances with clinch covers I would even hide it inside a Sweet Valley High book. :-) Ah, the things we do for a great story!

Thanks for stopping by my blog, Kim!
