Halloween Blog Hop

Hello all, welcome to the Halloween blog hop! This is HUGE...over one hundred authors are doing this and all of them are doing a contest on their blog.

My contest: Below is an excerpt from my first release, So Beautifully Broken. Each day I will ask a different question. The answer will be found in the excert. Be the first to answer the question and you can win a copy of my new release, Courageous Dare.









Qustion: How old is Lilly?

Leave your answer in a comment along with your email address. (Since the question was already answered this early, leave a comment and I will pick one more winner.)

For the next stop on the blog hop click on this pic! http://dreabecraft.com/events-2/



Trouble, bad news, addict—those were all words Lilly Banks was sure any random person would think if they knew the truth about her. She would agree. Shattered from the inside out, she felt nothing. She stopped caring about everything after a life full of pain and misery, a long time ago.
At twenty-five years old, she had no one in her life that cared about her with the exception of her best friend Evie. Lilly had known Evie her entire life, and Evie was the only one who knew nearly all her demons. Nearly, because Lilly kept the darkest ones to herself, afraid Evie would walk away from her.
Lilly looked around her small apartment; yet another thing Lilly owed to Evie. Small as it was, Lilly was thankful she had a safe place to call home for once in her sad little life.
Evie had done so much to help Lilly throughout their lives. She even found Lilly a job opportunity at the club where she worked. Tonight Lilly would go meet the owner, though she wasn’t sure tonight was the best night for meeting a new boss. She hadn’t slept in three days, but she had no choice. She needed money to finance the nasty little habit that kept her mind so spun out that she didn’t have to think about all her pain.
