12 Days of Giveaways – Day 3 – Sick Heart

  • December 3, 2021

  • JA Huss

 

AND THE WINNER IS… @lularoedeniseleitermann

CONGRATS! You win the Day 3 Giveaway! Please check your INSTAGRAM TAGS!

 


Welcome to my annual 12 DAYS OF GIVEAWAYS! 

If you’re new to this – here’s how it works:

1.   Each day from December 1 through December 12 I will put up a new giveaway HERE on my website with instructions on how to enter, a detailed description of the prize, and some stuff about the book or series. Each giveaway is different and each has ONE WINNER UNLESS you are the winner and you are from Australia or New Zealand.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ!

MY GIVEAWAYS ARE ALWAYS OPEN INTERNATIONAL BUT the United States Post Office has stopped all mail delivery to AUS and NZ. Shit is weird BUT you can still win if you’re from AUS or NZ  because each giveaway has a GIFT CARD as well as a physical gift. So if the winner chosen is from AUS or NZ – there will be TWO winners. The AUS/NZ winner will get the GIFT CARD and the second winner will get the physical prize but NO gift card.

2.   Each giveaway runs UNTIL DECEMBER 13.

3.   Winners are CHOSEN and NOTIFIED on December 14. I will be notifying winners in various ways depending on how people enter. Sometimes on FB, sometimes on IG, sometimes in my FB fan group (Shrike Bikes), sometimes via email – and all winners will BE LISTED AT THE TOP OF EACH GIVEAWAY POST HERE ON MY WEBSITE on December 14.

4.   Winners have 24 hours to respond, then another winner will be chosen.

5.   ALL PRIZES WILL BE MAILED ON DECEMBER 15.  If I’m waiting on a winner to respond and they miss the December 15 mail date, that prize will be mailed when I get around to it. I live in the middle of nowhere so a trip to the post office is a “thing” for me. 🙂 So make sure you’re checking for winners on the 14th.

6.   I will send newsletters announcing giveaways on December 1, December 6, December 12, and a Winner newsletter on December 14. I NEVER send this many newsletters in a month so sorry if that feels spammy. I just have quite a few readers who do not do socials and there will be at least three giveaways that do not involve socials in any way. So I need to get the word out.

7.   You can also FOLLOW MY BLOG. I will also make a blog post HERE announcing ALL WINNERS on the 14th. If you want to follow this blog there will be a form at the bottom of each post to do that. Then you get an email when I POST HERE. I don’t do that often – December is the exception because of the 12 Days and my yearly “Wrap-up” post.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.

THAT’S IT! I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY THIS! The world is INSANE right now so I’m just trying to spread some cheer and give back to all of you who support me and enjoy the stories I create.

GIVEAWAY #3

SICK HEART

SICK HEART IS A STANDALONE BOOK!

“This book will STUN YOU SILENT!”
“Brutal, Brilliant, Beautiful!” – You will NOT stop turning pages.
“Unique story and Top Read 2021”

Cort van Breda has won 35 death matches as a fighter in an MMA circuit so deep underground there are no rules and only the winner gets out alive.
They call him the Sick Heart.
They say he’s a shameless monster.
They say he’s a ruthless killer.
They say he’s as twisted as the man who owns him.
They say a lot of things about Cort van Breda.
But in our world violence is money, and money is winning, and winning is life, and life is the only thing that matters.
Except… he wasn’t meant to win that last fight.
And I wasn’t meant to be his prize.
But he did.
And I am.
And now his sick heart owns me.

WARNING: This is a sweet love story adrift in an ocean of evil. It is about two survivors dealing with their darkest secrets while they fight to change their lives. It is for mature readers only and has descriptions of deeply disturbing situations. There will be pearl clutching.

READ FOR FREE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED!

AND HERE’S HOW TO ENTER TO WIN TODAY’S GIFT SET!

 

(1) Make sure you are FOLLOWING me on INSTAGRAM HERE.

(2) HEART AND COMMENT ON THIS POST and answer the question – What is the one thing on your “bucket list” that you wish you had done?

I wish I had hiked the Appalachian Trail. I have always wanted to do that. I might be too old now, but never say never. 🙂 I find the idea of a personal challenge like that very intriguing. Also, I’m really good at being alone and I think it would be super fun to do it all by myself the way Reese Witherspoon’s character did her hike in that movie, WILD.

 

BTW – ALL the candles in the giveaways were handmade by me. 🙂 I LOVE making candles. This Sick Heart candle is Black Coral and Moss scent and it smells like a handsome, rich man! hah.

Also I just wanted to show something off! I got the most heartwarming surprise in the mail yesterday. One of my long-time readers, Kristin, send me a present. She spent 11 WEEKS crocheting a blanket for me over the summer and I got it yesterday along with an awesome card. I think that was just the most touching present ever. GIGANTIC, HUGE THANK YOU TO KRISTIN! You’re amazing and your talent is crazy good!

Here is a picture of it!


AND HERE is a sneak peek of tomorrow’s giveaway!

 

Make sure you stop by and enter!

    I think when something is on your bucket list, you shouldn’t rule it out. I think a bucket list item is something to aspire to, so like walking the Appalachian Trail, I think mine is to visit and explore Alaska. I am not interested in a cruise but to get to really know the people the art of the indigenous people and explore the nature of Alaska.

    I wished I had jumped out of a airplane. I know sounds silly….my daddy was a paratrooper special forces in Vietnam. He never talked about that time of course, until one day he took me as an adult to the doctors office, they were worried I had cancer. (I did not). He was a lot like me, he joked when he was nervous, or would tell stories. Well, he started to tell me of paratrooper school. And how scary it was until the first day they went up and jumped. He said “Sissy, your so high you have no concept of how high up you are so your not scared. There are no buildings to compare it to, so you just let go and fly….”
    “That is how everyone should live, just let go and fly”.””Promise me you will try it one day sissy…I want you to feel that feeling at least once.”. I cried I was scared, he was scared and well even though we hardly said I love you I knew that was his was of saying I would be ok one way or the other.
    Three years later my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer due to Agent Orange from his time in Vietnam, he beat it, then 3 months after he developed brain cancer, 2 weeks fighting we lost him. One month later I had to get a pacemaker.
    So, I can never “Fly in the sky” like my daddy wanted me to, but now I try in so many other ways to live life like I am letting go to take that jump.

    My best friend and I love vermont. The small towns . The 4 seasons. The food…
    We would spend hours days even just googling everything about vermont. Sadly 1 month ago this Sunday she passed away. I’m devastated. We never got to go. Even thinking of it hurts right now because it was our shared dream. Maybe in time I will go.. maybe

    Mine are all thingsI did in my the past that would make my future better. As they say “Hindsight is a wonderful thing.” Not smoked. Got over my fear of heights. Been able to travel more. Kept my collection of books before I got married.

    Thank you all for the kind comments on the blanket I made for Julie. My Polish grandma taught me how to crochet over 40-years ago and it is my stress reliever today. Since Julie shares her talents and skills with us I wanted to return the favor by creating this blanket for her. Plus I thought the colors reminded me of her unicorns. Much <3 to all this holiday season.

    Second – I don’t really have a bucket list.
    All of things that I would have liked to do (visit Alaska, Australia, Japan . . .) are not possible with my current physical limitations. It is hard to contemplate travel if you can’t really walk; the best I can imagine is a cruise, but I’d have to stay on the ship, so no sight-seeing or any of the day trips, at which point the $$ and effort involved make the decision to not leave my living room easy. Rather depressing, huh? Whatever, it is what it is.

Sacred Trinity

THE DANGER IN THE DAMAGE

A soldier searching for redemption.
A man addicted to control.
And the woman caught between them…

Ean Shephard knows trouble when he sees it and Olive Creed is the kind of trouble that can burn his whole world down. As Collin Creed’s baby sister, she’s completely off-limits. But her quiet strength, combined with her sad vulnerability, keeps pulling him closer. Shep came to Edge Security to escape his past, but falling for Olive could ruin his second chance and the fragile peace he’s fought so hard to find.

Brose Sinclair has always played the long game. He and Olive are more than just partners inside the shadow organization they both work for, they’re lovers. His absolute authority keeps her on track and Olive likes it that way. But her sudden attraction to their target threatens everything they’ve worked for and for the first time, Brose finds himself questioning whether control is enough to keep Olive by his side.

Olive Creed has spent her life learning to play her role perfectly. She can’t afford to mess up. Not with Brose watching her every move, looking for mistakes. Mistakes she sometimes makes on purpose just to spur on his titillating punishment. But as she starts to fall for her target and her world begins to crumble beneath her feet, Olive finds herself wondering—which one of these two men would truly be there in her darkest hour?

Brose—the one who owns her mind?

Or Shep—the one who wants her heart?

The Danger in the Damaged is a battlefield of betrayal and control, where loyalty is a weapon and obsession takes no prisoners. It’s a best-friend’s-little-sister romance caught in the crossfire of dark secrets and mind games—and this time, Collin Creed isn’t the one calling the shots.

Inside the pages you’ll find…

Enemies to Lovers
Best Friend’s Sister
Power Dynamics
Forbidden Love
Dark Protector
Forced Proximity
Possessive Love
Morally Gray Characters
Damaged Heroes
Redemption Arc

THE RUMBLE AND THE GLORY

Collin built a kill team. Lowyn built an empire. Twelve years after breaking her heart, he’s back for a fresh start—and a second chance. But Lowyn isn’t the good girl he left behind. Old sins rise, secrets burn, and this small town’s revival is ready to blow. Love this dangerous always leaves a mark. Enemies-to-Lovers meets Touch-Her-and-Die.
