Daphne Saito, a beautiful and talented Hollywood screenwriter, might look like she has the perfect life, but on the inside she’s lost. She’s wandered from one meaningless relationship to the next—and now, just as she breaks up with her longtime boyfriend Dan—she finds herself facing someone new, someone she could fall in love with. But Daphne, still traumatized by an accident involving her best friend, Greta, five years earlier, is afraid to love. Harm has always come to those close to her.

Over four life-changing days, Daphne lets her guard down and steps toward this new love. But trouble is never far behind. Dan, angry at Daphne’s departure, has targeted an innocent young woman, someone close to Daphne’s new love, as part of a plan for revenge. And an enigmatic woman from Daphne’s past returns with revenge plans of her own. Danger is on the horizon for all of Daphne’s friends—and for her.

 

Giveaway:

Katie is feeling particularly generous with her cover-reveal giveaway. Up for grabs are copies of her first novel, Entanglement, the first book in the Entanglement Series. But this is NOT a contest—it’s a guarantee! If you leave a comment on this blog AND you sign up for Katie’s hysterical newsletter at http://bit.ly/pryalnews, she will send you an eBook (mobi, pdf, or epub) OR a signed paperback—your choice! 

Small print: The giveaway ends at 5pm on Weds 2/3. If you prefer the paperback, Katie only has 20 of those on hand, and when they run out, they run out. Also, she can only ship to the United States. Once you’ve commented and signed up for the newsletter, email Katie at katie [at] katieroseguestpryal.com with your preferred format and mailing address (if needed). All she asks in return is that you leave a review on Amazon when you’ve finished reading. What a deal!
