I'm in an author group with a number of Roses, and our fearless leader Casi McLean has put together an awesome event to increase reviews, visibility, and Amazon rank this summer.  We have a pro organizing the event and pulling in readers already...she does this a lot and has access to a large following.  Basically, she will host a month long "Challenge" event where the reader group will receive (throughout the month) free books from participating authors to read for review.  They must then post a review on one of the books they've selected before receiving the next one, and every review they post gains them entries into our giveaways...small $5 and $10 ones, plus the $200 grand prize gift card.  There are also games and meet the authors events.

We have a few spots left...FAQs and sign up form are below for anyone interested.  Regarding genres...there must be SOME Romance in the book...other than that, it's pretty open :)

Raspberries & Revelations-A new excerpt from Spencer’s Mason’s Mark at Beverley Bateman

Do drop by Beverley Bateman’s wonderful site for a taste of my mystery romance the Mason’s Mark: Love & Death in the Tower. I share a new excerpt exhibiting the powers of observation that rise when two sharp little old ladies get together.

The Mason’s Mark: Love and Death in the Tower

In both the best and worst first day at work ever, docent Claire Wilding meets the man of her dreams, but her carefully rehearsed guided tour of the George Washington National Masonic Memorial collapses when she discovers a body and is drawn into a dark world of black ops and Italian renegade masons, of secret cabals and hidden treasure.

Also cloaked in mystery is handsome Gideon Bliss, a George Washington expert who haunts the Memorial, his manner evasive. What is his secret? Claire fears she'll fall in love with him only to learn he's a thief or even a murderer. Juggling two eccentric mothers, an inquisitive sister, and an increasingly smitten detective, Claire must find answers to a complex web of intrigue, including who to trust and who to love.
