Sector Swag: Beyond Shame & Noelle!

Beyond Shame - Sector Swag

Over the next year or so, we’re going to be doing the occasional contest to give readers a chance to win not just some O’Kane swag, but some truly awesome tie-in merchandise created by the utterly amazing Dragonsworn Cosmetics.

One of the best parts of Cal from Dragonsworn is that she’s an O’Kane fan, and truly gets the characters! All of the cosmetics, colors and scents she designed for our Sector heroes & heroines match their personalities and their vibes, and we love every last one.

Today, we’re going to highlight some of the amazing products she made inspired by Noelle, the heroine of Beyond Shame! And in honor of this, you can get 15% off on any Noelle-related product you buy on Dragonsworn for the next couple weeks by using the promo code: NOELLE4LIFE.

Custom Scent

Sweet cream, butter rum and clover honey to be almost too sweet; bunches of flowers in lilac, violet, and tuberose grow unashamedly wild and bright.

Custom Color

Rich berry-pink with tons of holographic sparkle. Noelle is sweet, not saccharine, and this kitten has claws.

Available Products

All of Dragonsworn’s products are handmade. A full ingredients list is available on the listing! For most bath & body products, you’ll have to select the scent you want from the drop down. A full list of O’Kane & Gideon’s Riders scents is available here. (Because of this, your 15% off coupon can apply to ANY scented body product in the store…in case you need more than one O’Kane in your life. :D)

The Contest

Because we’re excited about how cool this swag is, here’s your chance to win something awesome! Leave a comment below about which product you think is the coolest, and on May 1st we’ll select one winner for the ultimate Noelle swag pack. Prizes include:

An O’Kane themed tote bag
A signed copy of Beyond Shame
An O’Kane for Life button
An O’Kane for Life flask
Various stickers, bookmarks & fun goodies
A bar of your very own Noelle scented soap
A bottle of your very own Noelle themed nail polish

So leave your comment below, and you might win the grand prize! And if not, you can still shop for some cool stuff over at Dragonsworn.

Beyond Addiction is available on audible!

By Kit Rocha Leave a Comment Dec 15

We’re working on catching up with the Beyond series in audio. The latest addition is available now on Audible and iTunes.

Beyond Addiction – Beyond #5

She’s fought like hell to leave the past behind.

Trix changed her name and her life when she got clean four years ago. Now, she has a new family and a job she loves—tending bar and dancing at the Broken Circle. As an O’Kane, she’s happy, untouchable. Until a nightmare from her old life tears her away from her home and drags her back to Hell—also known as Sector Five.

He’s still living—and dying—in it.

Losing Trix was the kick in the head Finn needed to get sober, but working as an enforcer for a man he hates is slowly crushing his soul. The only thing that keeps him going is his determination to destroy Sector Five from the inside. Then Trix comes back into his life—alive, in danger—and nothing else matters.

Getting her home could be a suicide mission. The only thing deadlier is the old spark that flares to life between them. Soon, Finn and Trix are battling the one addiction neither of them ever managed to kick—each other. And it could cost them everything.

Get started with audio for the first time…

Are you new to audio? Or thinking about dipping your toe into it? The first three Kit Rocha titles are available via Whispersync! That means that if you already own the kindle version, you can get the audio for a huge discount ($2.99, last I looked) and switch back and forth between reading and listening to the books any time you want. Since Beyond Shame is currently free on kindle, you can get both audio and ebook for $2.99!

Beyond Jealousy is coming out on…

By Kit Rocha Leave a Comment Feb 3

What. I have a dramatic streak. Surely that’s not a surprise at this point. 😉

So, we sat down, took a deep breath, and made the commitment. Barring another disaster like Snowpocalypse Two, Beyond Jealousy should be hitting your ereaders on March 17th.

(Six weeks? YIKES!)

Ace, Cruz & Rachel have taken us on a crazy, emotional journey. There have been times when I was pretty sure we weren’t going to make it through this book, because so much pain, and so much dirty, and Ace, oh my god, the stuff that comes out of his mouth, and it figures he’d corrupt Cruz, too, and–

Well. You’ll find out. In six weeks. 😉

The new BEYOND covers.

By Kit Rocha Leave a Comment Sep 11

As many of you know, we recently had to face the decision to redesign the BEYOND covers so they’d be more retailer-friendly.
They’ve all been revealed in various places, but this is just a post to put them all together. I’m really happy with how they turned out, and what this means for covers going forward. It’s going to let us showcase a little more personality of various heroines–and heroes! #5 is the hero!–and hopefully keep us in good with the Powers that Be. 🙂

Beyond Shame: The Audiobook

By Kit Rocha Leave a Comment Nov 5

We’re really pleased today to be able to announce that Beyond Shame will be coming to a store near you in the near future…as an audiobook! The lovely folks at Tantor Audio will be producing the audio version, and we’re confident that will make it both high in quality and widely accessible to all our readers.

The best news: selling the audio rights to Tantor frees us up to keep working on Beyond Control. We’re hip deep in Dallas & Lex’s story, and can’t wait to share it with you. Though that’s still a few months off, at the very least, we have hopes that you could see the audio version of Beyond Shame a little sooner–hopefully quite early in 2013.

Hopefully y’all are as excited as we are! And I’d like to take this moment to thank all of you who have tweeted and facebooked and blogged and recommended Beyond Shame to friends and colleagues. I have never witnessed the power of word-of-mouth more closely than I did with this book, and you guys have awed and humbled us. Thanks, really. Cyber drinks are on us. 🙂

Drink (Coffee) Like an O’Kane

To celebrate the official, pretty-much-everywhere release of Beyond Shame, we’re giving away two O’Kane coffee mugs! These are nice two-color mugs with the O’Kane logo. You can drink your morning beverage as badass as if you’d been partying like an O’Kane the night before. International entries are welcome, just fill out the form below!

And if you desperately want a mug and don’t want to wait or take a chance, you can buy them on zazzle. (The commission is bottomed out, as this is where I order the prizes from, so they’re not TOO expensive.)

Got questions? We’ll answer them!

By Kit Rocha Leave a Comment Sep 28

So, we’re getting ready for our “official” release week adventure next week, but with the book already out in the public we’ve been getting lots of questions. I’m getting ready to put together a sort of, “What you can expect from the series” overview for next week, along with an FAQ page to answer the questions we’re getting most often.

If there’s anything you’d like to know about the series, the books or anything else, feel free to leave a comment. With the exception of spoilers, we’ll answer everything, either here or in the post & FAQ next week. 🙂
