YA Goodies Contest for BUTTERFLIES DON’T LIE by B.R. Myers
READERFRIENDS. I am posting like a goddamn maniac this month, mostly because there’s so much to celebrate. So many YA/NA authors are coming out with great new releases, and the more time I spend cheering them on, the less I spend pounding my laptop screen with my forehead. WIN/WIN.
Here’s the latest bit of good news: the debut YA romance from Bethany Myers (she writes as B.R. Myers) is coming out this month from Nimbus Publishing. It’s called BUTTERFlIES DON’T LIE, and it was originally featured on Wattpad, where it got more than 2.5 million reads in three months! HOT DAMN. I’ve got the details right here, plus the link to a contest you can enter to win the book and some awesome extras.
ABOUT BUTTERFLIES DON’T LIE:
Sometimes the best matches are the ones you least expect.
Sixteen year old magazine quiz junkie, Kelsey Sinclair wants to make this summer unforgettable by (hopefully) seducing her secret crush, Blaine Mulder. Armed with romance advice articles, Kelsey tackles true love with scientific precision, including getting a job at the seaside restaurant that overlooks the yacht club where Blaine teaches sailing.
However, visions of rendezvous on the beach are clouded when the new kitchen guy’s laid back attitude and smouldering stare quickly get under her skin. With his renegade demeanour and unpredictable stunts, Luke is the opposite to Blaine’s golden boy reputation.
Determined to follow through with her original goal, Kelsey ignores her growing attraction to Luke, certain he’s not the guy for her. But when she finally manages to get Blaine’s attention, Kelsey worries the magazines are all wrong, and that sometimes the best matches are the ones you least expect.
A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR…
BUTTERFLIES DON’T LIE is loosely based on my own summer job experiences (except the romantic bits, unfortunately) working as a busgirl at The Captain’s House restaurant in my beautiful hometown of Chester, Nova Scotia.
Psst…Kelsey’s mix-ups and blunders at work were inspired by my own debacles as a busgirl, but one particularly embarrassing episode that didn’t make it into the book was the time I got stuck in the dumbwaiter—I guess it was a slow day.
