The Monster’s Daughter, free for the next two days!
ETA: It looks like the coupon is good through 23:59:59 Thursday, so download away!

I meant to give away one book today, but I can’t seem to find the words for that post.
Instead I offer up free copies of my first novel, The Monster’s Daughter. Like the book I meant to give away today, it involves some hard choices for its protagonist. Unlike the book I meant to give away today, it involves monsters:
Ginny Connors doesn’t believe in vampires. There’s totally a rational reason her dad is a lot more bloodthirsty and a lot less interested in food than he used to be.
Still, she hangs a cross on her bedroom door. Just in case.
When Ginny discovers people aren’t the guests but the main course at her father’s New Year party, she wishes she could save the day with garlic pancakes. Instead, she must face the limits of her daydreams, and attempt to stop the monster her father has become.
If you’re looking for a vampire novel, I’m gonna be frank with you: this might not be your thing. Like the novel’s protagonist, I believe most vampires are improved by a stake through the heart.
If what you’re looking for is strength in hard times, you might just find something useful in this book. As reviewer E. L. Faris wrote:
If The Monster’s Daughter is read as simply a coming of age story for
a heroic young woman (and you will have to read the book to see just how
heroic she acts for I refuse to spoil it for you), you will love it. If, however, you
read it as an allegory for the life of an abused child and young woman, then
you will find great satisfaction and perhaps even catharsis as you read the
this amazing first novel by author Deborah Bryan.
