The Charge by @SharonBayliss: Your #CQPromo Deal of the Day!

Well, loves,

It looks like Curiosity Quills' leprechaun is on a serious bender. He's been swigging straight from the bottle since Sunday, and he's showing no signs of slowing anytime soon. While this may be terrible news for his liver (and the rest of his teeny weeny little leprechaun body), it's good news for you. I have another fabulous book to share with you today. The Charge by Sharon Bayliss is a shiny new release, and it's only 99 cents on Amazon. Can I get a woohoo?!

Summary: When King of the Texas Empire kidnaps Warren's brother, Warren embarks into a still Wild West to save him. On his journey, he makes a discovery that changes his life forever—he and his brother are long-lost members of the Texas royal family and the King wants them both dead. 

He gets help from an activist Texan named Lena, who's itching to take on the King and happens to be a beautiful firecracker Warren can't stay away from. Convincing her he's not one of the bad guys becomes harder when a mysterious energy stirs in his body, turning his brain into a hive of emotions and memories—not all his own.

A legacy of violence is not all he inherited from the brutal Kings of Texas. The myth that the royal family possesses supernatural powers may not be myth at all.

Gone are the days when choosing a major was a big deal. Now Warren must save his brother and choose whether or not to be King, follow a King, or die before he can retire his fake ID.

18 Things by @JamieMAyres: Your #CQPromo Deal of the Day

Hello, lovelies,

Curiosity Quills' leprechaun has definitely over imbided. Last time I saw him, he was clog dancing his way through Mecca Amazon's warehouse with a pricing gun and a serious case of the giggles. This is good news for you, because 18 Things by Jamie Ayres is one of the wonderful Curiosity Quills titles he's slashed prices on... and I have all the details for you!

Summary: Can eighteen things save a life?

Olga Gay Worontzoff thinks her biggest problems are an awful name and not attending prom with Conner, her best friend and secret crush since kindergarten.

Then, Conner is killed in a freak boating accident and Olga feels responsible for his death. When she downs an entire bottle of pills to deal with the emotional pain, her parents force her into counseling. There, her therapist writes a prescription in the form of a life list titled "18 Things": eighteen quests to complete the year of her eighteenth birthday.

But there's more to Olga’s quests than meets the eye and when her therapist reveals a terrifying secret, her world is shaken.

There’s only one thing she knows for certain: her choices won’t just affect her future, but all eternity.

About Jamie:
 
 
Jamie Ayres writes young adult paranormal love stories by night and teaches very young adults as a public school teacher by day. When not at home on her laptop or at school, she can often be found at a local book store grabbing random children and reading to them. So far, she has not been arrested for this. She lives in southwest Florida with her prince charming, two children (sometimes three based on how Mr. Ayres is acting), and a basset hound. She spent her youthful summers in Grand Haven, Michigan and this setting provided the inspiration for her debut novel, 18 Things. She really does have grandmothers named Olga and Gay but unlike her heroine, she’s thankfully not named after either one of them. She loves lazy pajama days, the first page of a good book, stupid funny movies, and sharing stories with fantastic people like you.
 
You can follow Jamie on her blog.

EVER by @JessaRusso: Your #CQPromo Book of the Day

Hey loves!
 
Remember me telling all of you that Curiosity Quills' leprechaun has run amok? Well, that's still true, but we kind of like it that way. So today, I'd like to join his team and reintroduce all of you to one of the fabulous books currently on sale for 99 cents.

Ever (Book One of the EVER Trilogy) by Jessa Russo!
 

Summary: Seventeen-year-old Ever’s love life has been on hold for the past two years. She’s secretly in love with her best friend Frankie, and he’s completely oblivious.
 
Of course, it doesn't help that he’s dead, and waking up to his ghost every day has made moving on nearly impossible.

Frustrated and desperate for something real, Ever finds herself falling for her hot new neighbor Toby. His relaxed confidence is irresistible, and not just Ever knows it. But falling for Toby comes with a price that throws Ever’s life into a whirlwind of chaos and drama. More than hearts are on the line, and more than Ever will suffer.

Some girls lose their hearts to love.

Some girls lose their minds.

Ever Van Ruysdael could lose her soul.
