CLOSED GIVEAWAY: Mist & Frost by Kathryn James

These fairy tale-esque thrillers are in my current reading pile, so I'm definitely happy to have a chance to share them with you! And they're so very pretty!
Check 'em out:



ABOUT BOOK ONE:
Midnight: a mist-haunted wood with a bad reputation. A sweet sixteen party, and 13 year old Nell is trying to keep her sister, spoilt birthday-girl Gwen, out of trouble. No chance. Trouble finds Gwen and drags her through the mist. Only Nell guesses who’s behind the kidnap - the boy she hoped was her friend, the cute but mysterious Evan River.

All those fairy stories Nell’s grandmother told her about girls being stolen by fairy folk are true. The Elven are beautiful as starlight, fierce as wolves, and cold as ice. And they want their world back. The fight has been raging for centuries. Nell’s grandmother should know, she’s a Watcher, the ones responsible for imprisoning the Elven in isolated iron-bound camps in Siberia. Only Evan, his fanatical older brother Fen, and a handful of Elven children are still free.

Fen, hellbent on revenge, keeps Gwen in their wolf-guarded stronghold deep in the mist. The price for her safe return? The release of all the Elven – but the Watchers will never agree. Only Nell can save Gwen.

Time is twisted through the mist: if Nell stops longer than a night and day, a hundred years will hit her as soon as she returns and she’ll be old and withered before she’s even lived. The clock is ticking.

  38. Hi Misty, Thanks for this chance to win these 2 books. I want to read Mist and Frost because the book cover draws it's readers in and then the book blurb makes the book addict in me scream "I WANT THIS BOOK" cause it sounds so darn flipping good, that it would be silly not to want a chance to read Mist and Frost by Kathryn James. Plus I'm a book blogger like yourself, so if I win it will also end up on my blog one way or another as well :) Natasha @ Paranormal Goddess Book Blog

  39. First, the covers look AMAZING and then there's the blurb. It sounds really interesting, and I'm intrigued as to whether Nell manages to not stop longer than a night and a day - and if she rescues her sister.

    ReplyDelete
