Welcome to the fantastical side of romance with magic and myth, ,
Romance Book Blast Stuff your Reader Day was crazy! And with the overwhelming downloads of Taking Medusa, I extended the time to grab the book freezies through the 6th just in case someone missed the promo! I'm also including my Sky Robert list on this email just in case they missed the post I sent on Facebook to the group.
Quick, Grab Taking Medusa here: https://books.steviemarie.com/takingmedusa
This is your last chance to grab Taking Medusa for zero pennies!
We had over 7,000+ downloads of Taking Medusa, soaring the book into #1 spot in Mythology and top 10 of Fairytale Retellings then held steady at #2 in Mythology during the promotion once Muse of Ruin jump up, and even got to #150 in the overall Kindle Free Store charts. Can you believe that even with over 7K downloads it still didn't make it to the top 100? Mind blowing, but I'm super excited about the results of the Stuff Your Reader Event!
If even 1% of the people who downloaded the book choose to read it, that would be an extra 70 readers that I know will join our merry band of Medusa fans!
And if you like to listen to your books instead, grabbing the book for free now means you can add the Audible for only 7.49, saving a bundle on the audiobook!
Did you find some awesome reads from Stuff Your Kindle?
I basically did a search of the www.romancebookworms.com page for any book that had the word "monster" in it, and downloaded it. haha. What was your method of choosing your next read?

If you have to be the focus of a prophecy, the damn thing should give you a hint about how to pull it off.
Inspired by the worlds of The Legend of the Flying Dutchman and Beauty and the Beast, this action-packed fantasy is filled with searing romance, outlawed magic, and seafaring danger.
The survival of an entire race or the freedom she desperately wants.
Breaking Fate Snippet:
"What did you do?" I could still hear Poseidon growl through the golden crab shells secured behind my ears. They were magically connected with him, regardless of what Hades did, at least for the briefest of moments before realizing those were the last words I'd hear from him without Hades's permission.
"Fate is such a tricky mistress," Hades began with a cool demeanor. He wasn't talking to me, I realized soon enough. "I had a fated mate myself, brother. I followed my path and yet I was spurned for doing so. You avoid your own, and what? I'm supposed to congratulate you and hand her over without you proving to me your fate deserves to be happier than mine?" His haunted laugh still echoed in my mind as he finished with ignoring his brother that I could no longer see nor hear, then faced me to say, "I control who sees you, Little Goddess. Do a good job in your new role as protector and I will grant you time to do with as you choose. Do you choose to see your fated mate? Or perhaps you choose to see someone else?"
It was clear what he meant. Would I choose to see Poseidon, or Triton, instead? Or my sister?
"Are you the only one who can see me?" I asked first, ignoring his interest in my love life.
"Of course not," he balked. "It would grow tiresome. You'd become a pest that would never leave me alone. No, you have access to all the Underworld, and of course any dark god you wish to extend your protection to. As for other gods… that's a case-by-case basis. If they know what they're looking for then I can't say my protection will hold. But in the Underworld, the crown's power is absolute. It is where you will be safest when the time comes that Olympus discovers what you are up to."
"And what am I up to?" I wanted him to clarify my new role as an Underworld servant.
"My brother," he said plainly before he lifted a brow and clarified, "the one you aren't fated to, is overly obsessed with results. To the point that if there is even a miniscule chance that Apollo's prophecy can be interpreted a different way, he will see to squashing it. Anyone with Tartarus blood will be hunted, and as soon as you start to protect them, they’ll begin to gather, growing in number. Well, I don't need to spell it out for you, do I?"
"He'll think I'm building an army for war," I finished for him, my voice trailing off in thought.
"I knew you were clever," he mocked and then yawned like he was bored with our conversation.

Getting too much email? Reply back to this email with "Monthly" in the message and I'll move you over to my once a month letter usually sent out around the 15th of the month.
Please do not click that SPAM button. I'm a small indie author, even 1 single spam complaint out of my small 3,000 sized list of subscribers sends my newsletter OVER the "green" zone of below .01%. Anything over this percentage causes other readers who want to hear from me to potentially not see my emails as it hurts deliverability to their inboxes.
You are on my email list because you opted in either by grabbing my free book, finding me on the interwebs, or by joining a book giveaway geared towards meeting new authors such as myself. If you found yourself here by any other means, you're welcome to unsubscribe at anytime. I do not go around adding emails all willy nilly. I'm a one-person show here, and can't afford to have people on my list that don't want to be here. I follow all guidelines and laws regarding newsletters.
Disclaimer: sometimes my links have affiliate tags associated with them, this in no way influences who I decide to share with you on my newsletter, nor does it impact your experience with discovering new books. If anything, any affiliate links used help authors, including myself, subsidize the costs associated with staying in business. For instance, using a tagged link helps us see whether someone found our books from our own marketing efforts or through some other means, also with Amazon specifically, that puts a couple extra pennies from grabbing one of our books back to the author from the big company. More of your money goes to the author, and your costs remain the same. My affiliate links have regularly covered the cost of maintaining this newsletter. So, if anything, click on a link for my books, and even if you are not buying my book, feel free to go about your usual Amazon shopping to help support my books through stuff you would normally buy anyways. Stick it to "the man" and support indie authors while you do it. This has been a PSA announcement from yours truly. Sky
