Run to You Series by Clara Kensie Book Blitz and Giveaway

*Double RITA finalist!* Last year, Clara Kensie's YA romantic thriller RUN TO YOU series was released as a serial in six installments. Since then, RUN TO YOU was named RT Editors' Best Books of 2014, and it finaled in the RITAs for Best Young Adult Romance and Best First Book (winners announced in July). Even better, Harlequin Teen heard your demands, and they've compiled the serial into two full, complete books! Run to You Book One (originally published in three installments as First Sight, Second Glance, and Third Charm) is now DECEPTION SO DEADLY. The sequel (originally published in three installments as Fourth Shadow, Fifth Touch, and Sixth Sense) is now DECEPTION SO DARK. Clara is delighted to offer up both books in exchange for honest reviews on Amazon and Goodreads.  



Excerpt;
 
FIVE RANDOM FACTS ABOUT THE RUN TO YOU SERIES:


  1. At sixteen, the heroine, Tessa, is as short as someone can be on the “normal” scale: four feet, ten inches. Someone once questioned if that height was realistic for someone her age, but both my step-sister Dana and my friend Lisa are 4’10.” So yes, it is.
  2. The hero, Tristan, doesn’t play football, but he is a Green Bay Packers fan. This just about kills my husband, who is a Chicago Bears fan. He feels betrayed.
  3. Tessa’s mother, Wendy, is inspired by Carrie White from Stephen King’s CARRIE, if she had grown up without the religious fanaticism and if she hadn’t gone to prom.
  4. Up until the last moment, DECEPTION SO DEADLY had two chapters labeled Chapter 36. It went 35, 36, 36, 37… I never noticed, and neither did anyone else, until the copy editor saw it at the very last stage of editing.
  5. My friend Mary told me about the song “Wildflowers” by Tom Petty after reading the original draft of DECEPTION SO DEADLY, and realized the lyrics would be perfect for it. That song has since become Tessa and Tristan’s theme song and is mentioned often in the books.

With no more secrets to keep them apart, Tessa and Tristan embark upon a desperate search to find her missing brother and sister. But not even Tristan can keep Tessa safe from the hostile classmates at her new school…or from the nightmare that haunts her even while she's awake. As Tessa's nightmare becomes all too real, her hope of getting her family back together feels ever more out of reach. When a psychic warns her that leaving town may mean her death, Tessa still cannot stay when she uncovers a potential lead to her brother and sister. Not even if she must go alone and risk losing it all: Tristan, her family, and even her life.

About the Author
Clara Kensie, author of dark fiction for young adults
…don’t forget to breathe…

Clara Kensie grew up near Chicago, reading every book she could find and using her diary to write stories about a girl with psychic powers who solved mysteries. She purposely did not hide her diary, hoping someone would read it and assume she was writing about herself. Since then, she’s swapped her diary for a computer and admits her characters are fictional, but otherwise she hasn’t changed one bit.

Today Clara is the author of dark fiction for young adults. Her debut series is the romantic thriller RUN TO YOU: Deception So Deadly and Deception So Dark.

Her favorite foods are guacamole and cookie dough. But not together. That would be gross.
