Hello YAtopians! I hope you've had a fantastic weekend. I wanted to take a minute to wish everyone a Happy Memorial Day.
I'm having a spontaneous contest where all you have to do is comment and leave your email address for a chance to win. I'll draw two names and the winners will each win an ebook copy of my book, WHAT A BOY WANTS. If you've already read the book, you can still enter. If you win, I'll send Sebastian bookmarks instead.
It's a quickie contest so I'll draw the winner at 12:00 Noon EST on Tuesday May 29th.
Good luck!
Courtesy of watching his mom’s relationships, Sebastian Hawkins knows what girls need to do to get a guy. He has what he considers a PHD in hooking up. When he needs extra cash for a car, Sebastian starts up an online venture as The Hook-up Doctor, to anonymously help girls land the guy of their dreams. Of course, his services don’t offer a happily-ever-after guarantee. He’s seen firsthand getting together never means staying together.
And then he falls in love…
With the last girl he would expect…
Totally not in his game plan.
Suddenly, Sebastian finds himself muddled in the game he’s always prided himself on. He can’t even pick up girls at parties anymore! Why would anyone want to be in love when it turns you into a stuttering, screwed-up, mess with really lame stalker tendencies? Stalking? Totally not his gig.
But the Hook-up Doctor won’t let himself go down easily. He’s always known how to give a girl what she wants and now it’s time to figure out what a boy wants… and he definitely plans on getting it.
For fun, here are a few of my favorite quotes from Sebastian.
“I'll be like your bodyguard or something. Me Tarzan. You Jane.”
“I had to drink my first cup of soy milk with her. People bond over that shit.”
“Only real men can pout without losing their masculinity. I have nothing to worry about there."
“Was this what love was? Thinking a girl looked beautiful in her pajamas and glasses?"
“My skin tingled a little where she touched me. I was totally aware of that one spot more than I'd been aware of anything in my whole life. I didn't know if I wanted the feeling to go away or to feel it forever.”
(The bookmarks aren't open internationally on this one. Sorry!)

I posted my review for What a Boy Wants on my Spanish blog and people were commenting about buying it from Amazon as soon as possible! I'm gonna post my review, in English, to my Amazon account asap!

I absolutely loved this book. Bastian was such a great MC and it was so perfect reading from his POV. I am definitely looking forward to What A Boy Needs. Oh and yes I so fell in love with Bastian. All the characters were great and this story was very realistic. Definitely worth buying and reading/rereading.
