'Tis the season to be reading! As the holidays officially begin, we want to spotlight a fantastic advent event hosted by the lovely Hayley Anderton (whose praises I have sung many a time during podcast episodes when it comes to her horror and dystopian works). Hayley has generously put together an exciting line-up of indie authors to support this coming December, from the 1st to the 24th, where each day, a giveaway or discount will be on offer. You may even spot a few familiar names — I will be taking part with my sapphic bodyguard romance, Saving the Star, on offer for 77p from the week beginning the 12th.
The authors and books involved are as follows:

Aimee Vance, Fates Illuminated
Hayley Anderton, The Last Girls on Earth
Samuel L. Hallam, Haunted Souls

Annalee Adams, The Heart of the Phoenix
Joanne Nundy, Run From The Dead
Harriet Everend, Cursed Legacy
T.Z. Leigh, Mantle of Supremacy
L.B. Benson, The Bartered Soul
C. A Farran, Songs of the Wicked

Rachel Bowdler, Saving The Star
Jessica Huntley, The Darkness Within Ourselves
Jeanna Skinner, The Book Boyfriend

Dylan Colon, Evelyn: A Prequel Novella
Gem L Preston, Prince of the Ancients
Stella Donato, Bittersweetness: Poems
Xavier Rodriguez, The Whitestar Queen
Get your Kindle at the ready and settle down by the fire with this wonderful collection of books. It’s so important to support independent authors, so warm a few hearts this Christmas. If you’re not able to grab every book, do spread the word about the event and take advantage of those freebies!
Huge thank you to Hayley for putting this together and including me! I’m in awe of all your hard work and so appreciative of the community you’re building.
