Laura Howard: Tight Knit #Giveaway by Allie Brennan

Tight Knit #Giveaway by Allie Brennan

Thanks so much Laura for letting me steal your blog for a day! 

When I decided to commit to this writing game, everyone thought I was crazy. And I mean everyone... Including me.   But here I am a few years later with a shiny copy of my debut novel, TIGHT KNIT

Most people still think I'm crazy, but what I think is crazy is the amazing response I'm getting to a story that is so close to my heart.   

To show my appreciation I am traveling the blogs of a few of my biggest supporters, cheerleaders, reality-check-givers and midnight email responders to give away my book!

  Kindle / Kobo / Paperback  

Talia Gregory relies on her Nan for everything, especially helping her calm the anxiety that controls her life. But Nan gets sick, and it couldn’t be worse timing. Talia’s panic attacks are getting worse, her boyfriend is a jerk, her best friend is distant, her parents are more absent than usual and she’s stuck planning the Cozy Christmas Charity Drive for her knitting group in place of Nan. If that’s not panic inducing enough, enter Lachlan. 

Lachlan McCreedy doesn’t rely on anyone. Not after what he’s been through. It’s him and Gram, nothing else matters but keeping his past buried, and his secrets hidden. So when Gram forces him to help with her Christmas sale, Talia is the last thing he expected, and trusting her with his secrets comes as a shock to both of them. But when he unexpectedly falls for her, the question becomes can he trust her with his heart?   ~Mature YA~

I don't remember how Laura and I met. I'm sure it was on Twitter... but either way it feels like I've known her forever! Laura and I were both new authors working on our first projects. We were both interested in Social Media... which I fell out of but in the short 6 or so months I've really come to respect her opinions and seek out her help for more than just promoting my book ;)

If you've been following me across the internet, you'll notice that on all the blogs I'm giving away my book PLUS one of the books of the host blog, but seeing as Laura's much anticipated debut isn't out yet *pout* I'll be giving away a copy of TIGHT KNIT plus a book of your choice(value up to $4.99) to TWO commenters!   All you have to do is leave a comment with your email address and two people will be chosen at random on Friday, January 18!   Kindle only. My most sincere apologies! I'm Canadian so Barnes and Noble won't let me buy books there...or sell them... I know, right!?   

Stop by my blog all this week to see behind the scenes of TIGHT KNIT. Playlists, inspirations, processes, a couple signed paperbacks up for grabs AND a special surprise!

  1. I used to be a knitting in university (great form of procrastination). I haven't done it in years. I write instead. :)

    Your book sounds great, Allie. And I hear you on the BN issue. I'm in Canada and have learned the hard way about gifting people books. It sucks. Do they not realize the $$ they're missing out on? Fortunately everyone has one one of my giveaways has been able to read Kindle books.

  2. Allie, I remember when we met. I stalked your blog and liked every post (every one I could see until I asked for older ones and even then I went back further). I remember talking about boys in books on your blog and seeing this incredible graphic you designed about book covers if authors wanted to give it a go themselves.

    You are an amazing author and designer. I can't believe how well your book and design business are going. I'm thrilled to "know" you. Lol.

    I'd like to win but I just wanted you to know these things. Much love!
