Gemma Halliday, author of the High Heels series of fun Romantic Suspense books, is doing something pretty darn cool. Upon learning that one of her young readers along with her mom recently became homeless, Gemma did more than just nod and say, “I’m sorry to hear that.” She put together an auction with some top notch items including editor pitches, critiques, web design, and, of course, lots of books. Not only is this your chance to help out someone in need, you might just find that editor you’ve been desperate to talk with. Or find a less expensive way to get that professionally designed website you’ve been talking about.

And you can too. In case you don’t know, an ARC is an Advanced Reader Copy of a book not yet released. It’s sort of pre-final edits version and they are highly sought after items. The adorable Gemma Halliday is running a contest for a chance to win an ARC of the anthology THESE BOOTS ARE MADE FOR STRUTTING and all I have to do to qualify is promote her around the net. So…I’m promoting.
