Happy Book Birthday, A MATTER OF HEART!

So, I remember way back when (ahem, last summer), when I decided to publish A MATTER OF FATE, I hoped that readers would be interested enough in Chloe's story to keep on reading. And sure enough, here I am, with the second book in the Fate series just released. And I am truly humbled and excited that you guys came along on this ride with me.

CONJURE Cover Reveal by Jennifer Snyder!




Available July 1, 2013
Sometimes to understand the present you have to conjure up the past...

The last thing Addison Harmon needed was to become tethered to the broody, often seemingly cold, Theo Van Rooyen, but that's exactly what happened.

Forced to partner up with Theo to figure out a way to break the tether, Addison soon realizes she may have bitten off more than she can chew.

(New Adult/Mature Young Adult: Contains sexual situations, language, underage drinking, and drug usage.)







Jennifer Snyder lives in North Carolina were she spends most of her time writing new adult and young adult fiction, reading, and struggling to stay on top of housework. She is a tea lover with an obsession for Post-it notes and smooth writing pens. Jennifer lives with her husband and two children, who endure listening to songs that spur inspiration on repeat and tolerate her love for all paranormal, teenage-targeted TV shows.

I'm in the mood for a GIVEAWAY! (UPDATED)

Hello lovely readers!

As of today, A MATTER OF HEART is set to release in 12 days! Woo hoo!! I am so, so excited to share this book with you all. In the course of the Fate series, this is one is aptly named because it is the heart of Chloe's journey. I feel I need to stress that, while the first book in the series was a YA novel, AMOH is New Adult and contains new adult themes--therefore it's suitable for 18+. Chloe is 18 and 19 in this book, no longer in high school, and is living and working in the adult world. That said, I really look forward to hearing what you all think of it!



Which brings me to two related things . . .

First off, the first book of the Fate series, A MATTER OF FATE, is currently on sale for a limited time at Amazon and Barnes and Noble for $0.99! If you haven't gotten it yet, here's your chance. It's got lots of good things going in it, like action and suspense, magic and hot boys. Here's what I Heart YA Books had to say about it in their review:

"A Matter of Fate is an emotional roller-coaster. I could not put this novel down after reading the first chapter. Heather Lyons grabbed me be the heartstrings with Chloe, Jonah, and Kellan, and she didn't let me go."



Because I love me a good contest, I thought--what better time to run one than right before AMOH releases! So, here's the deal: this contest is open internationally to anyone who leaves an honest, valid review of A MATTER OF FATE on either Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

Here's what's up for grabs: an autographed copy of A MATTER OF FATE plus a $10 gift card to either Amazon or Barnes & Noble (winners choice--US residents only). Or, if you're an international winner, an e-ARC of A MATTER OF HEART (yep!) plus a $20 gift card to Amazon.

Sound good? Here are the deets on the contest:

** Read A MATTER OF FATE.

** Leave an honest, valid written review of A MATTER OF FATE on Amazon and/or Barnes & Noble. We're not talking War & Peace length (unless that's how you roll with reviews, then feel free to go for it!)--just something that lets me know what you truly think about AMOF. I love me some Goodreads reviews, too--but for this contest, there must be reviews left on Amazon and/or B&N as well. Side note: If you choose to post a review on Amazon and Goodreads, for example, it can be the same one. All you have to do is copy and paste it from one site to the other!

** After that's done, go to the Google Docs form for the giveaway HERE and paste the URL link for your review. If you've posted honest reviews in multiple places, choose the main one (i.e. Amazon or Barnes & Noble) to link. Oh! I almost forgot there's a BONUS!! If you leave written reviews for Amazon, Barnes & Noble, AND Goodreads, you will get an extra entry in the contest.

** The winner will be chosen at random and notified by email within one week of close of contest 7/15/13). The prize package will be shipped within two weeks of notification.

Enter to win HERE!
