Trailer Reveal + Giveaway for Queen of Someday (A Stolen Empire) by Sherry Ficklin

I am really officially super excited to be able to share this book trailer with you guys, because I just watched it and for me, I think this book is going to be super spectacular. Or at least I am hoping that it will be, seriously it looks totally fab!

I am super excited to finally reveal the book trailer for...

Queen of Someday: A Stolen Empire Novel

Before she can become the greatest empress in history, fifteen-year-old Sophie will have to survive her social-climbing mother’s quest to put her on the throne of Russia—at any cost.

Imperial Court holds dangers like nothing Sophie has ever faced before. In the heart of St. Petersburg, surviving means navigating the political, romantic, and religious demands of the bitter Empress Elizabeth and her handsome, but sadistic nephew, Peter. Determined to save her impoverished family—and herself—Sophie vows to do whatever is necessary to thrive in her new surroundings. But an attempt on her life and an unexpected attraction threatens to derail her plans.

Alone in a new and dangerous world, learning who to trust and who to charm may mean the difference between becoming queen and being sent home in shame to marry her lecherous uncle. With traitors and murderers lurking around every corner, her very life hangs in the balance. Betrothed to one man but falling in love with another, Sophie will need to decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice in order to become the empress she is destined to be.


What people are saying about Queen of Someday

 "Love, betrayal, adventure and hard decisions that have no "right answer"... Russian Court is an exercise in "survival of the fittest" and Queen of Someday is a beautiful start to the journey of an innocent young girl growing into one of the greatest leaders of all time." ~June Stevens, author


"I was caught hook, line and sinker with this novel about a young girl's battle in a world that seems perfect on the surface, but is sinister and twisted underneath. I think one of the reasons I loved this book so much is because there was no fantasy or paranormal element the book. I would have loved it just as much if there had been, but to see that somewhere seemingly so safe could be so deadly, without a hint of magic or witchcraft, was haunting." ~Bonfire Book Reviews

"Queen of Someday" is a guilty pleasure read. Just like CW shows and Lifetime movies, it's full of drama, scandal and betrayal. And I just couldn't look away. I found myself gasping and grinning maniacally at every turn. Sophie's schemes delighted me in a way that made me question my own sanity. I enjoyed "Queen of Someday" in the same way that one enjoys CW shows; the melodrama is strangely addictive, but I'm embarrassed to admit exactly how much I enjoyed it." ~The Nerdy Journalist reviews

And be sure to enter the giveaway!



Can't wait to see more? Queen of Someday is available for pre-order here, and will be available everywhere October 7th 2014.

XPRESSO BOOK TOURS PRESENTS: Dead Kisses Trailer Reveal & Giveaway by Kerri Cuevas



You guys! I am super incredibly excited to be a part of the amazing Deadly Kisses Trailer Reveal!

Isn’t it all very exciting?! Can’t you just feel the tension…?



Here’s the scoop on DEADLY KISSES by Kerri Cuevas!

In DEADLY KISSES, Aiden Grant has a killer kiss. Literally. And it’s not every reaper who gets to work with the Sixteenth President. Sure, Honest Abe likes to throw out history lessons with reaping assignments, but when you’re favored by the ancients, grim reaper life is pretty sweet for a newly dead seventeen-year-old.

Then things get messy.

Aiden is assigned to reap the soul of Bee, the only girl he has ever loved. When Aiden’s kiss of death fails, intertwining their souls, she is still very much alive and they are both in trouble. The ancients want Bee, who has special powers of her own, and they’ll do anything to get her.

Some rules are meant to be broken, even if that means Aiden must bargain with his own soul to save Bee. Who knew the afterlife could get so complicated?



Hold onto your socks like whoa, because there are going to be two giveaways. Yep, you heard me right. I said two giveaways and you can find all of the information down below!

The first giveaway is from the Kerri, herself, and it consists of a signed book and one original piece of artwork signed by the artist that the winner can choose from 8 different pieces. The second giveaway is from the artist and it is for a free book trailer good for one year.
