Sinders and Ash is coming April 1st from Amber Allure. It is an LGBT contemporary romance with a touch of fantasy! So this is our transition week! As i said, there are THREE ways to win so check them out below. In addition, there will be separate prizes at all of the Blog Hops going on during the tour. There is one going on RIGHT Now through Wednesday March 28th on my AUTHOR Blog.
Here is the first WAY TO WIN!

In addition to the GCs you can win lots of cool SWAG. Want a poster of the Spell Cat cover? I’m giving two away. Want a Volley Balls T-Shirt? A Golden Dancer drawstring backpack?

So they will be in the blogs from last week, this week or next week! Sometimes the answers will be in the blog, sometimes in the excerpt. One or two of the questions you can also answer on my website. I’m not going to give you a lot of hints. The answers are there somewhere. You can also Google them. When you think you know all the answers, email them to me at tara at taralain dot com. I will pick the winners from the entries. You may not have to get them all right to win.
