Want to know what can happen even when you're spastic and ridiculous? (Something I possibly know firsthand because I'm walking proof?)
Authors can be generous enough to offer up swag and a free signed (and personalized!) copy of a book for
a tiny blog's giveaway.
Even when the blogger is clearly certifiable and possibly shouldn't be allowed out of the house without supervision.
Yes.
YES!
How cool is that?!
Credit goes to the wonderful
Jana Oliver, who so sweetly put up with my
inane babbling,
banana brain, giddy fan girl enthusiasm (all the above, really), and who just so happens to be the author of my new favourite Young Adult Urban Fantasy series—
The Demon Trappers.
This is no hyperbole. The Demon Trappers has skyrocketed into my list of bookshelf staples—it's smart, sweet, and (most importantly) feels fresh in a genre that has a lot of repetitiveness. (See my review of
The Demon Trapper's Daughter here.)
Riley stole my heart with her badassness (totally a word). And then Beck did, too, possibly even more.
True story: When I saw Jana at JordanCon 2013 I told her that if he ever showed up on my doorstep I'd most definitely run away with Beck, the endearing redneck—but no worries, I'd already warned my hubby, so it was all cool on the home front.
Her reply was to say I needed to
get in line.
Ha!
Want to know what else? Jana Oliver has a brand spanking new ebook out available on Kindle, Kobo, and Nook, called
Tangled Souls. (I've bought it, but I haven't read it yet, so
shh with the spoilers, you.) Go check it out, it's only $2.99 CAD—and let me tell you, this lady is a
solid storyteller. I figure we're all guaranteed to be entertained.
Okay. So. For this giveaway... hm...
Since I fell in love with Denver Beck, I think that to be entered into this giveaway everyone needs to mention a literary hero (or heroine) they've enjoyed so much they were smitten.
Who would you love to run away with if they showed up on your doorstep?
C'mon, who's your favourite? Everybody's got one. Dish!
It's mandatory to comment to be entered into the draw, but you can earn optional bonus entries, too. One for liking Lannis on Facebook, and more for Tweeting the giveaway on Twitter.
And Twitter's fun—you can earn multiple giveaway entries by Tweeting once each day of the contest, if you're so inclined.
(Be sure to comment below, then go through the widget to Like the Facebook page, and Tweet for entries to count towards the giveaway.)
What's the prize?
Well, it's some cool
Demon Trapper's swag and a copy of the first book of the Demon Trapper's series—
The Demon Trapper's Daughter—signed and personalized by Jana Oliver herself.

| Full disclosure: that's actually my book—Jana will personalize a copy for the winner once the giveaway closes. |
Pretty sweet, am I right?
(I'm excited just thinking about it.)
You've got from now until midnight on Wednesday, June 26th to enter! Have at 'er, kids!
(Here's hoping this fancy pants Rafflecopter widget works...)

I'll be shipping Sheila her swag, and after Jana personalizes a copy of the book, it'll be heading her way, too.
