ARC TOUR SIGN-UP: Waltz This Way by Romance Author Dakota Cassidy!






Hey everyone!

Good Choice Reading is looking for sign-ups for a very special and different ARC Tour. Author Dakota Cassidy has asked us to host a tour for her upcoming March release, Waltz This Way.

The reason why I say this tour is different is because each participant who signs up to read and review Waltz This Way, will receive an EBOOK copy. This can be a good thing, but a bad thing too.

Good: It saves you, and us, the headache of gathering up mailing addresses lol, and it saves us on shipping cost. It also gives you more time to read and review the book.

Bad: Not everyone has an eReader to be able to read the book, but you can read it on your computer or mobile device if you'd like.


Before I get into the details of this tour, here is a photo and blurb of the book:


Paperback, 352 pages
Expected publication: March 6th 2012
By Berkley Trade
18 and Over!

Left without a partner…

When former ballroom champion Melina Cherkasov found out that her famous husband was cheating, she was devastated, especially since she was informed by a sleazy reporter on national TV. Thanks to an ironclad pre-nup and a scumbag ex, Melina has to pack up her dog and her dignity and take refuge in her dad’s retirement community in New Jersey.

...it’s time to take the lead.

To make ends meet, Melina puts her dancing shoes to use as an instructor at Westmeyer—a private school for boy geniuses. Teaching a bunch of hormonal teenagers the waltz is trying, but the school’s sexy handyman proves to be an ample distraction. Drew McPhee is perfect, except for one thing: he doesn’t like dancing. Thankfully, the finesse Drew lacks on the floor is more than made up for by his skills in the bedroom. And after one steamy night, the ballroom diva is the one getting swept off her feet…


So how is this tour going to work?

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ THE RULES CAREFULLY.

Here are the RULES:

  1. You must be 18 or over to participate.
  2. You will have two weeks to read the book, and a week to post your review. So in total, that is three weeks.
  3. I will send each participant the eARC file at the same time. So from the first day I send out the e-mail is when your three weeks will begin.
  4. You MUST have a blog to sign up.
  5. Your blog must be up and running at least three months or more.
  6. You must post at least once a week on your blog. No matter if it's a review, meme, or simply book news. You must be active in blogging.
  7. We ask that you also post your review on other sites such as: Amazon, GoodReads, Barnes & Noble, etc.
  8. Waltz This Way is the third book in the series, but you do not need to read the first two books in order to read this one.
  9. Once your review is completely and on your blog, you must return to the post that will be titled: "ARC TOUR SCHEDULE: WALTZ THIS WAY by Dakota Cassidy" and add your review to the SIMPLY-LINKED list that will be listed at the bottom of that post.
  10. We ask that you keep your review clean. If for some reason you cannot get into the story, please e-mail us (ARCTours@goodchoicereading.com) and let us know. We would like to try and avoid any bashing or negative reviews.
  11. You must agree to the terms on the form.
  12. If you'd like to participate, please fill out the FORM listed below, or CLICK HERE to fill it out.
  13. All reviews will be forwarded to the author herself at the end of the tour.

ARC TOUR: Fracture by Megan Miranda



Fracture by Megan Miranda
Release: 01/03/2012

Eleven minutes passed before Delaney Maxwell was pulled from the icy waters of a Maine lake by her best friend Decker Phillips. By then her heart had stopped beating. Her brain had stopped working. She was dead. And yet she somehow defied medical precedent to come back seemingly fine

-despite the scans that showed significant brain damage. Everyone wants Delaney to be all right, but she knows she's far from normal. Pulled by strange sensations she can't control or explain, Delaney finds herself drawn to the dying. Is her altered brain now predicting death, or causing it?

Then Delaney meets Troy Varga, who recently emerged from a coma with similar abilities. At first she's reassured to find someone who understands the strangeness of her new existence, but Delaney soon discovers that Troy's motives aren't quite what she thought. Is their gift a miracle, a freak of nature-or something much more frightening?

For fans of best-sellers like Before I Fall and If I Stay, this is a fascinating and heart-rending story about love and friendship and the fine line between life and death.

You can read Dee's review HERE.

Please make sure before signing up for this tour that you have read all our ARC Tour Rules, and filled out the FORM.

We need four to begin tour, but open for SIX. If we get more than six sign-ups, we will choose participants using Random.org.

ARC TOUR #7: The Watchers by Inara Scott (CLOSED)



The Watchers (AKA The Mark) by Inara Scott
Delcroix Academy #2
Hyperion Books

Dancia's back at Delcroix, but this year, everything's different. Dancia's Talented, and her powers have earned her an invitation to join Delcroix's real raison d'etre --the Program. Dancia's wanted to use her powers to help people all her life -- and now Delcroix is going to give her the training she needs to use her Talent for good.

At least...that's what the school says she'll learn to do with her powers. Her cuter-than-cute boyfriend Cam insists that it's true, and so do all the other students. But there's still a little voice inside her head that wonders -- if the Program's so great, why did her almost-only-a-friend- Jack run away rather than join? And why would the school be getting attacked by angry ex-students?

Dancia's a loyal student...and a loyal girlfriend. But if finding out what's really going on means talking to Jack, well -- it's a risk she just might have to take.

This is a special tour for me. Inara Scott herself donated this ARC to Good Choice Reading. She wants to know what you think!

The Watchers is the second book in her Delcroix Academy series. The first book in the series is The Candidates. The Watchers will not be out until 2012, so this tour is open for TEN participants. 

Have you read The Candidates?

The lacy gold mapped her entire body. A finely-wrought filigree of stars, vines, flowers, butterflies, ancient symbols and words ran from her feet, up her legs, over her narrow waist, spanned her chest and finished down her arms to the tips of her fingers.

Born into a life of secrets and service, Chrysabelle’s body bears the telltale marks of a comarré—a special race of humans bred to feed vampire nobility. When her patron is murdered, she becomes the prime suspect, which sends her running into the mortal world…and into the arms of Malkolm, an outcast vampire cursed to kill every being from whom he drinks.

Now Chrysabelle and Malkolm must work together to stop a plot to merge the mortal and supernatural worlds. If they fail, a chaos unlike anything anyone has ever seen will threaten to reign.
