Jungle Madness Friday!

Leslie Icon

Well, as you know from my blog earlier this week, I’m a Halloween junkie! So this week, for Halloweeen Madness Friday, I’m offering you a special set of Halloween glasses for your very own frightfully spooky holiday toasts!

I’ll have a dozen of these Skeleton hand glasses shipped directly to you from Oriental Trading.

Winner will also receive autographed copies of my two Halloween titles, ASKING FOR TROUBLE (Hq Blaze, 10/06) and TRICK ME TREAT ME (Hq Temptation 10/03). Both are out of print and ASKING FOR TROUBLE is supposedly highly sought after…

You know what to do, just comment and you’re entered. (Note: More than one comment is just fine, but only one entry per IP address will be entered. US & Canada entries, only, please!)

Happy Friday!

*********
Hey, all … we have to add to the rules (sorry, we’re really not sticklers but this is important - from now on, the winner will be announced on Sunday as usual and they will have until Tuesday (two days later) to get in touch with the : running that week’s contest or we’ll have to pick another winner. We know you take vacations or get sick, but it’s hard when we don’t hear back for us to keep posting and asking you all to contact us. Hope you understand!

That said, I’m still waiting to hear from Nathalie # 87 from last Friday! If I don’t hear by Sunday, I’m drawing a new winner and announcing it with Leslie’s winner.)

  1. Aw, it’s Friday - woo hoo! Took long enough to get here, that’s for sure. I’m going to continue celebrating my birthday as well as celebrating a friend’s wedding. Should be a blast.

    Happy Friday to all the Plotmonkeys and friends

  5. Wow, I have been looking for a copy of Asking For Trouble. After reading Overexposed, I picked up copies of the other Santori books. They are some sexy dudes! Would really love to get my hands on this book! Thanks for offering it up.

    Have a great weekend to all.

  6. I missed a perfect opportunity here - what I should have said was Holy Cannoli - what a prize. LOL. I can never think of cannolis in the same way again.

  22. HAPPY BIRTHDAY STACY, it is time to !!!

    Leslie, great glasses and TRICK ME TREAT ME, sounds like a very book. Overexposed was great, just finished reading it a week ago. I will have to check into those other Santori books.

    Happy Friday all and everyone have a great weekend. Mine includes finishing putting up my Halloween decorations today. It has rained here for 2 days, so no outside stuff yet, but today I have to get to it.

    Take Care All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  27. Hi Leslie:

    I loved Overexposed and I can’t wait to see what happens to Bridget and Dean so I have already preordered One Wild Wedding Night from B&N.
    Thanks for offering such a fun prize with some great books.
    Happy Halloween!

    Comment by Za — October 12, 2007 @ 10:04 am

  28. Good Morning Plotmonkeys and all,

    Creepy glasses, Leslie. If I win I’ll take the books but the glasses would never get used in my house so please pass them on to someone else.

    Hope everyone has a great Friday.

    Take care,

    Cher

    I would love to win Trick Me, Treat Me with it being out of print and no doubt hard to find. It looks like a good story.

  40. Great Halloween glasses, Leslie! :pumpkin:

    Hope everyone has a great weekend! I’ve been sick all week with a head cold, but the good news is that I read some great books while I’ve been lying around on the couch. Between blowing my nose 300 times, coughing my lungs up (only kidding), and napping, I’ve read Carly’s SWAK (LOVED it Carly - really great read!), Jill Shalvis’ THE TROUBLE WITH PARADISE, and Stef Ann Holm’s ALL THE RIGHT ANGLES. I would definitely recommend all three books.

    Comment by Carolyn A. — October 12, 2007 @ 12:23 pm

  41. I’m a HUGE Halloween junkie too! I decorate my house more for this holiday than I do for Christmas. Every year all my friends and families kids come to my house for a carnival in my back yard. Nothing like Autumn time and a little fun!

  42. Wow what great glasses to showcase all of those special Halloween beverages. :bat: Have a great weekend one and all.

    Comment by Ardie — October 12, 2007 @ 1:04 pm

  43. Faboo prize! I am also a Halloween Junkie. I’m not allowed to go to craft stores during the month of October. I get a bit loopy. I have Halloween underwear! I offered to donate a prize basket for my MOMS club just so I can have room for new stuff. It’s a sickness, I know.

    Anyway, to go with the theme of the prize, here is a great recipe site with some Halloween cocktails.

  52. Those glasses are a hoot and the books I would love to have. Halloween is a big thing around our neighborhood and the decorating outside and inside gets quite unique and outrageous, but we have a ball.

    Wishing everyone a happy and safe week-end.

    Comment by Shari C — October 12, 2007 @ 2:48 pm

  53. Hi all…don’t count me for the contest…I got my copy of Asking For Trouble in the mail a couple of days ago. Thank you Leslie…the prize looks great, but I wouldn’t really have any use for the Halloween glasses or the other stuff…good luck to everyone…gotta go get ready for Parent’s weekend festivities…talk to you all later…Have a wonderful weekend everybody…I hope I get a chance to chime in this weekend…busy, busy, busy…

    Peace and love,

    I absolutely crave your books! I haven’t read the ASKING FOR TROUBLE yet. I have heard also by the lady who runs my favorite bookstore that it is one of the top asked for books!

    I sure hope I get lucky this time!

  78. The glasses are great and would look wonderful on anyone’s Halloween table. The books that come with them are the best. What a way to anticipate Halloween with 2 great books and a glass of wine. :bat:

    Comment by CJ — October 12, 2007 @ 10:49 pm

  87. Thatbrunette–thanks for the recipe link! Way cool!

    And to answer a couple of questions…the glasses are from Oriental Trading http://www.orientaltrading.com

    And Oriental Trading does NOT offer overseas shipping, so this is open to U.S. winners only. (I’d be happy to mail just the books overseas, but on big stuff, like a large carton of glasses, shipping can really get cost prohibitive. We’ve spent 3x as much as the original prize was worth in some cases.)
