As some of you may know, I ended up in the hospital right before Quell the Nightingale released.
Which means I didn’t get to do anything for the release but recover.
For those who don’t know, I started struggling to breathe five days before my book came out (right before we were supposed to leave on a beach vacation, no less).
I went to urgent care, they sent me straight to the ER, and the ER skipped past an incredibly full waiting room and took me straight back.
Apparently I had been fighting a bacterial infection that had moved into my lungs, giving me pneumonia in all four quadrants.
Thankfully it could be treated with antibiotics, and about the third day in the hospital my head stopped being fuzzy (well, mostly), three of the four quadrants had cleared, and I started getting antsy and wanting to go home.
They sent me home on the fourth day, and the next day was QtN’s release!
Where I pretty much threw up a release day SM post and went back to bed.
So now that I’m feeling better, I have a giveaway for you!
(Still not 100%, but I’m getting there.)
I collected these books well before I got sick (and stayed away from them the whole time I was sick, I promise you), and each one comes from an author who endorsed Quell the Nightingale.
I love these books, I love these authors, and I more than anything want you to have a chance to read them too!
P.S. This giveaway ends on Friday, Sept. 20th at noon, and you can get physical copies of QtN $5 cheaper if you buy directly from me. All my love!
Quell the Nightingale
A sleeping princess. A hidden enchantress. Can she break the curse before time runs out?
Although Quell the Nightingale is the third book in the Beast Hunters series, each book in this fairy-tale fantasy series can be read as a standalone. If you like fractured fairy tales, grumpy/sunshine characters, and a hard-won happily-ever-eventually, you will love Michele Israel Harper’s magical storyworld.
Ro LeFèvre is desperate to save her niece. Delayed after fighting vicious sirens, the huntress races back to France with one thought on her mind: get there before the little girl succumbs to a sleeping curse. But she’s too late.
Frantic to reverse the spell before it becomes permanent, Ro immediately sets off to hunt the sorceress responsible. But when she finds herself trapped alongside a feisty Fräulein who is far too protective of her tower, her pet swans, and her enormous coils of hair, Ro fears she’s just condemned her niece to an eternal slumber.
Will Ro confront the enchantress in time to free the little girl, or will the child sleep forever?
“Quell the Nightingale is the perfect blend of everything I crave in a story: lush, expansive, fresh worldbuilding; witty, multifaceted characters and banter; non-stop action and adventure; a wonderful, lion-hearted heroine and swoon-worthy hero; and a hard-won, satisfying happily-ever-after. In the tradition of Once Upon a Time, Quell the Nightingale weaves together fragments from some of my favorite fairy tales to produce an original and unpredictable tale I could not put down!”
– J. J. Fischer, award-winning author of Calor
“A delightful journey into a land of mystery and magic, where fairy tales collide and hope hangs by a thread.”
– Annie Sullivan, author of A Touch of Gold
“Quell the Nightingale is a fun, delightful romp! Weaving several fairy tales into a seamless tapestry, Michele Israel Harper crafts compelling threads of family, love, and courage that will leave you smiling. This story treats readers to much-loved fantasy characters and is a quirky, magical tale that makes one wonder what truly is real and what’s worth fighting for.”
– Ronie Kendig, award-winning author of the Droseran Saga
“Quell the Nightingale is a masterful mash-up of many fairy tales, both popular and obscure. It’s also an emotional narrative about a strong female character learning that love can only make her stronger.”
– C.O. Bonham, author of Runaway Lyrics
“Such a fun fairy tale mash-up! I loved seeing all the unexpected connections and characters. There are also deeper themes woven into the story—silence, secrets, and stuffing your feelings only gives pain more power. Quell the Nightingale is definitely an adventure worth taking!”
– C.E. White, author of Vincent in Wonderland
“Prepare to be enchanted by this tale of a fiery huntress much better at facing magic beasts and evil spells than romance! Swoony heroes, a grouchy granny, and fun-loving family will warm your heart and keep you smiling. Ro’s quest through dark forests and fairy tale kingdoms will have you turning page after page!”
– Savannah J. Goins, author of Whisper of Weapons
“The fairy tale medley I didn’t know I needed! Quell the Nightingale introduces beloved characters at every corner in a new and fresh way. It balances high stakes and romance with a quirky and humorous—but strong—female lead at the helm. It’s a tale that will keep you guessing until the satisfying end.”
