Be creative. Win a kindle copy of The Dead Game.

Win a kindle copy if you dare to take on Wolf and live to tell us how.

One hot. One cold.
Linda finds Todd Morrison enticing but also mysterious and a little suspicious. She doesn’t know if he is involved in the deaths and disappearances in town. He’s too friendly with the strange residents living in the woods behind town. They appear only a night. They hold secret parties at their lavish homes. He's much too aloof for her taste. But he is gorgeous with those dark, brooding eyes...
Charles Wolf is dangerous and too arrogant for her liking. But he's drawn to her and she to him.
Which man will Linda choose? And why?
Best answer wins a Kindle copy of my book.

My hatred grows strong.
My revenge lasts forever.
Don’t cross me.
Don’t anger me.
And don’t ever taunt me.
I am Wolf.
My cold fingers will run down her hot body.
She will wake to the sight of my glowing eyes.
She will experience passion not human.
And she will yearn for much more.
The dark prince will take her in his arms
And place her on his black steed.
They will ride off into the sunset,
Leaving memories of her old life far behind.
I am Wolf.
What does the poem say about Wolf? Is he to be trusted?
Will this turn into a love story or a horror story for Linda? I want to hear your predictions and win a Kindle copy of The Dead Game.

But I need a title for the second book. I would like to use "The Dead" in the name. Whoever gives the best answer will win a signed paperback copy of The Dead Game. I might even use it as the title of my book.
Thinking caps on everyone!

Again the best answer wins a kindle copy of The Dead Game.
Good luck!

Spoooooooooooky fun."
Thank you so much. It took a long time to figure out how to convert pictures to html code.

The best title I can come up with is 'The Dead End'."
Hi,
Waiting for the crowds. I'm going to use "The Dead End" for the last book in the series. Thanks. Think of a different one.

Hmm, how about The Dead Dance?
Your books sound like a lot of fun. :)

Rebekah stepped into the dining room, expecting to find a group of people sitting around an ornate table and discussing irrelevant things over carefully crafted food.
The only thing she guessed correctly was the ornate table. It stood in the center of large room with tattered walls that had paint peeling down their sides like brittle bits of died skin.
Only one chair remained, overturned near the door. What initially seemed to be carvings were actually deep gouges like many claws had torn at it... and whoever had been unlucky enough to be sitting in it judging from the dark red stains embedded in the wood.
Rebekah stepped away and repressed a shudder as she stepped toward the table. The table had actually carvings, intricate scenes of people with impossibly twisted faces dancing among stunted trees.
The table was set with fine white China and a large platter in the center, piled high with the remains of a meal long past fresh.
Rebekah held her nose and took a closer look at the meat. While most was a decaying mess, she noticed a few definite shapes, like a finger and the round circle of someone's scalp, a few strands of red hair still clinging in spots.
She stared for several seconds, trying to get her mind restart. Just as she was about to scream, Rebekah felt a hand on her shoulder.
Claws dug into her flesh and drew her back, onto something that felt nearly human shaped. It drew a hand across her mouth, cutting off the scream she hadn't been aware she had started.
"Welcome my succulent treat," it said in a low growl. "It has been too long since we have had fresh meat."

Wow! Did you just write this? Is it in response to my first question? It's great. Creepy great!

Thanks. :) I wrote it in response to the first question after I suggested the title.

I'm glad you like it. I was a bit distracted when writing it by my neice and nephew.
Good luck with the convention. :)

No I wouldn't go. I'd expect to find nothing good. Nothing good at all.

Give me an example of something scary and creepy you might find in a deserted house in a forest. You never know. You might win a book.

Facebook event has officially died. The Dead have taken them.

I would have to say he probably appears deceptively human but isn't really. He's probably downright terrifying.

I know I'd probably pick Todd.

It tells me he is a man not to be crossed. Usually men like that shouldn't be trusted either. My gut says it won't go well for her. But on the other hand... Who knows?

He is. He has a house in the forest with a man eating plants and bats.

One hot. One cold.

The safe one.

The Dead Game Revamped
The Dead Game Version 2.0
The Dead Return
We're Back: The Dead Return
The Dead Arise

Behind door number one we find what looks like a medieval torture room with victims in various states of dismemberment. Both dead and alive.
Behind door number two we find victims being drained dry like a cow in a slaughterhouse.

One hot. One cold.

Yep yep. That's what I was thinking.

I like THE DEAD RETURN.
I was thinking about that title and THE DEAD RISE

Gory. Good guesses.

Oy. Definitely not someone you want to mess with!

He is cold and passionate white Todd is elusive. She has her hands full.

Definitely lots of spiders and other bugs. The quickest way to run me off screaming is with spiders. I'm freaking terrified of them!

I was close with The Dead Arise! Off by one letter!

No spiders at End House. Some blood. Lots of worms.

It could be The Dead Arise. I haven't picked a title yet. I'm still writing the book.

Yeah. It just amused me that I was one off from a title you'd been thinking of. :)

Oh yes. I'm well acquainted with the blood and worms after that little tour. O.O

I'll say!


The door opens for you. It's dark. Candles light the right hallway and along the staircase. Which way would you go?

My cold fingers will run down her hot body.
She will wake to the sight of my glowing eyes.
She will experience passion not human.
And she will yearn for much more.
The dark prince will take her in his arms
And place her on his black steed.
They will ride off into the sunset,
Leaving memories of her old life far behind.
I am Wolf.
The games will be dark.
They will be scary.
For The Dead take no hostages.
Stand back.
Eyes wide open.
And enjoy!
