Braden's Giveaway

Well, it's February and it's approaching the time of year when you can't walk into a store without a giant pink heart battering you in the face. I've always found spontaneous romance, and the seemingly small stuff, more romantic than the commercial "holiday" of Valentine's Day BUT my parent's anniversary is around the same time so I'm happy to be battered in the face with said heart in celebration of the 33 years they've been married. 

 Yes. They rock.

I'm also more than happy to celebrate On Dublin Street whenever I can! Joss and Braden's romance was such a great journey for me and I love them to bits. In particular, since Braden is so popular with my readers, I want to celebrate him. In honor of Braden I'm hosting a great giveaway for you, folks.

Here's what's up for grabs...




First Prize 

One Winner will win:
A signed copy of On Dublin Street
A Keep Calm and Kiss Braden Mug
Mystery Souvenirs from the City of Edinburgh
$150/£150 Amazon Gift Card

Runner up

Four Winners will win:
A signed copy of On Dublin Street
A Keep Calm and Kiss Braden Mug
Mystery Souvenirs from the City of Edinburgh
$25/£25 Amazon Gift Card

Here are the details for the giveaway:
Giveaway is International
Entrants must be 18 years and over
One entry per person, however an entrant may enter a second time by tweeting: "I entered to win a $150 Amazon Gift Card in Braden's Giveaway @SYoungSFauthor!" and include the  link to the giveaway on my blog in your tweet :)
 Giveaway opens February 3rd and closes Midnight (GMT) February 17th.

  140. Thank you the giveaway, it's awesome! I just bought the book On Dublin Street with the new cover, I didn't close an eye all night, stood up reading it, and I loved it! Hope I have a chance to win.
