Gay Characters and a Giveaway (International)

I'm giving away a copy of the wonderful Witch Eyes by Scott Tracey to show my support for books with gay characters!

Braden's witch eyes give him an enormous power. A mere look causes a kaleidoscopic explosion of emotions, memories, darkness, and magic. But this rare gift is also his biggest curse.

Compelled to learn about his shadowed past and the family he never knew, Braden is drawn to the city of Belle Dam, where he is soon caught between two feuding witch dynasties. Sworn rivals Catherine Lansing and Jason Thorpe will use anything--lies, manipulation, illusion, and even murder--to seize control of Braden's powers. To stop an ancient evil from destroying the town, Braden must master his gift, even through the shocking discovery that Jason is his father. While his feelings for an enigmatic boy named Trey grow deeper, Braden realizes a terrible truth: Trey is Catherine Lansing's son . . . and Braden may be destined to kill him.

The Rules:

I'm in love with the cover, I can't stop looking at it! The book is very entertaining so far, I still haven't finished it though. And I've got to say this book has my favorite love triangle, mainly because for once the triangle makes sense considering Finley's double personality.

"I found the hum of his computer rather soothing, but it was the complete lack of unicorn carcasses that really pulled the room together. "


This book has giant killing UNICORNS! I thought the idea a little ridiculous at first, but the book soon had me convinced unicorns were evil poisonous SCARY monsters. A great read, I can't wait to get my hands on the sequel!
