First Ever Contest - Giving Up The V: Closed

02 June 2009


This contest is closed.

Giving Up The V


What’s So Wrong With Waiting?

Spencer Davis just turned sixteen. But unlike most hormonal teenagers who seem obsessed with sex — like her entire crew of friends — Spencer just doesn’t get it. She’d rather wait for the right guy and the right moment. But that moment may be arriving sooner than she’d thought.

Enter Benjamin Hopkins, a new transfer student who seems to have his eyes on our V-card-carrying heroine. He’s gorgeous, funny, suave, athletic, and capable of making Spencer’s knees wobble with a single glance. Spencer has never felt this way about anyone before, but is Ben truly V-worthy?

Check out the excerpts here.

To enter:
1. You must have a shipping address in the US or Canada. No P.O. boxes.*
2. Leave a comment on this post.
3. Leave me a way to contact you, preferably an email.
4. Tell me which country you live in.

Extra entries:
+2 for spreading word about this anywhere and leaving a link.
+2 for leaving me suggestions of books you'd love to win.

Ends June 30th!

*I'll throw in 2 books (not sure what they are yet) for another two INTERNATIONAL winners. One of the books will go to anyone living anywhere on Earth, provided I can mail it to you. The other will go to anyone living OUTSIDE US and Canada.
