The Ceruleans Print Party | Giveaway

Cast your minds back to April last year, and you may recall a book review of Death Wish, by Megan Tayte. The book, and the rest of the series, was released in eBook form, but this year Tayte's books have been printed in paperbacl To celebrate, Tayte is running a giveaway, and Blogger's Bookshelf are jumping in to support her.

The prize is a copy of each of the 5 books in their newly printed paperback format, and you can enter using the Rafflecopter widget below. You have until the end of the month to enter! Good luck!

About the author

Once upon a time a little girl told her grandmother that when she grew up she wanted to be a writer. Or a lollipop lady. Or a fairy princess fireman. ‘Write, Megan,’ her grandmother advised. So that’s what she did. Thirty-odd years later, Megan is a professional writer and published author by day, and an indie novelist by night. Her fiction – young adult romance with soul – recently earned her the SPR’s Independent Woman Author of the Year award.

Megan grew up in the Royal County, a hop, skip and a (very long) jump from Windsor Castle, but these days she makes her home in the village of Standish, Greater Manchester. She lives with her husband, a proud Scot who occasionally kicks back in a kilt; her son, a budding artist with the soul of a palaeontologist; and her baby daughter, a keen pan-and-spoon drummer who sings in her sleep.

When she's not writing, you'll find her walking someplace green, reading by the fire, or creating carnage in the kitchen as she pursues her impossible dream: of baking something edible.

You can find Megan online at:

Darkly, Deeply, Beautifully Release Party | Giveaway

Darkly, Deeply, Beautifully Release Party | Giveaway

Hello Blogger's Bookshelf readers! Today we have something special for you all. If you cast your minds back to around April last year, I shared with you my review and thoughts on a book called Death Wish, which is the first in the Ceruleans series by Megan Tayte. I really enjoyed the first of this series, and while I have yet to read the second one, it's sitting patiently waiting for me on my Kindle.

On the 16th of February, the fifth book in the Ceruleans series is released, and here at BB we're taking part in an awesome giveaway by the author herself...and you can too! Here's the blurb for the fifth book, Darkly, Deeply, Beautifully. 

Darkness has fallen, and she alone will see the light. 

With her mother’s life hanging in the balance, Scarlett is devastated – and done with being in the dark. She wants answers, all of them. 

But when was her pursuit of the truth ever straightforward?

Pulling a single thread impels a great unravelling. And each revelation will force Scarlett to rethink what she thought she knew about the Ceruleans, the Fallen, her family – herself. 

All that came before was a mere prelude to this, the last journey. From London to Twycombe to Hollythwaite to Cerulea, Scarlett will be stalked by the ghosts of what has been, what may have been and what may come to pass. Until she reaches the place where it all began, and it all must end. 

But in the final reckoning, none will survive unscathed. And some will not survive at all. 
In this explosive conclusion to The Ceruleans series, all must be defined by their actions: sinner, saint… or something more beautiful entirely? 

Sounds exciting, right? Right. You can grab a copy of the book from Amazon.com, and also Amazon.co.uk, or you can find all the others in the series here. 

Want to know what you can win with this Release Party Giveaway? And to know how to enter? All you have to do is enter using the Raflecopter widget below, and you're in the draw to win these pretty accessories. The giveaway runs from the 15th of February until the end of the month.

You can read all about the author, Megan Tayte, below, and find her at all these places around the internet. Head on over and say thanks for the giveaway!

And because we're oh so appreciative of everyone involved in the blog - readers and bloggers alike - we'd like to announce our very first giveaway!

We have paperback copies of Earth Star by Janet Edwards and Fearsome Dreamer by Laure Eve for one lucky reader and as you can see from the photos, our copy of Fearsome Dreamer is SIGNED by the lovely Laure Eve herself!
