Celebrating 16,000 Followers with a Giveaway!

February 21, 2016 Sarah Robinson 6 Comments

Dear Readers,

You’re seriously amazing. Period. The end.

But I actually have more to say, so bare with me! I started this Facebook page – www.facebook.com/booksbysarahrobinson – a little under 3 years ago with no clue what I was doing. In that time, I’ve learned so much and been honored to get to know many readers who have completely enriched my life. Also in that time, I hit #9 in all of Barnes & Noble, and #25 in all of the Amazon Kindle store. I’ve written 9 books (only 6 published so far, next one is coming in June! PS: You can preorder it now if you want #alwayspimping), and I’ve got a fan club that inexplicably has gained 600+ readers who always are asking for me #RobinsonRamblings stories. Seriously, it’s mind blowing.

To think of how many amazing things I’ve gotten to accomplish in the last 2-3 years only makes me that much more excited for the year to come, and everyone after. I can’t wait to show you guys what I’m working on next, and for you to read Kieran’s story in June in SAVING A LEGEND. (If you haven’t read his older brother Rory’s story yet…. you should!)

All I can say is thank you. Thank you to each and every reader who gave me a chance. Thank you to every author who helped me get here and supported me along the way. Thank you to my beautiful agent, Nicole, and my sweet editor, Sue, and all the talented staff backing me at my publisher, Penguin Random House. Also, thank you to The Weeknd who I’m currently listening to and is completely pumping me up, albeit worrying me about why he still can’t feel his face. Someone should call a doctor. Just saying.

As a small token of my appreciation, I’ve gathered a bunch of authors to do a huge #giveaway for you guys! Go on over to my Facebook page and click the GIVEAWAY tab at the top – www.facebook.com/booksbysarahrobinson – to enter or read below for the full instructions! This week only, so enter asap!

Love you all!
Sarah

NEW RELEASE: The Forbidden Rockers Series

December 11, 2015 Sarah Robinson 2 Comments

NEW TITLES. NEW COVERS. NEW EDITING.
SAME WONDERFUL STORY!

Sarah Robinson released her first rockstar romance back in 2013, but since then, she’s published a total of 3 all about sexy rockstar Logan Clay. Now two years later, it was time for a brand new cover, series title, and makeover! All 3 novels are LIVE and only 99 cents for this weekend only! Or they are FREE on Kindle Unlimited!

Introducing the newly branded
FORBIDDEN ROCKERS series!

The first book in the series is a prequel called LOGAN’S STORY, all about Logan Clay’s rise to fame before he found himself, or love.

PURCHASE LOGAN’S STORY:
Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon CA
(Currently available on Amazon only for 99 cents, or free through Kindle Unlimited!) Add to Goodreads HERE! And read the synopsis below:

Logan Clay has the talent, and he’s put in the time.
All he needs is that one big break,
just one chance to prove he has what it takes to be a rockstar.
But his musical dreams are further away than ever…

And then she walks in to his life,
offering him everything he’s ever wanted – fame, fortune, and music.
There’s no question that he’s going to take the chance,
or that he wants to take her at the same time.

But everything is not what it seems.
Will it be too late when he realizes his one big break
was actually a deal with the devil in a short skirt and neon colored hair?

The second book is HER FORBIDDEN ROCKSTAR, where Logan finally finds love with Caroline and has to figure out how to keep it.

PURCHASE HER FORBIDDEN ROCKSTAR:
Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon CA
(currently only available on Amazon for 99 cents, or free on Kindle Unlimited)! Add to Goodreads HERE! And read the synopsis below:

He’s trapped.
She’s the key.

Logan Clay has never met a woman who wasn’t only after the perks his rockstar life could provide, and there are a lot of perks.

Until he meets Caroline Sanders.

Not only does she want for nothing, she doesn’t want anything to do with him, period. He sure as hell wants her, but convincing her to take a chance on him requires risking everything he’s ever worked for.

Including his music.

It’s a chance at a love he never thought he’d have.
And a chance at freedom he’s not sure he deserves.

If only she’d say yes.

The third book is ROCKER CHRISTMAS, a sweet holiday story about building a life together and meeting the family.

PURCHASE ROCKER CHRISTMAS:

Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon CA
(Currently only available on Amazon for 99 cents, or free on Kindle Unlimited)! Add to Goodreads HERE! And read the synopsis below:

Famous rockstar Logan Clay is head over heels in love.

After everything he went through to be with Caroline, he knows exactly what we wants from his life. Bringing her home for the holidays to meet his family and old band members is the first step to that future together.

Except that Caroline isn’t as sure as he is… about anything.

Caroline has to impress her boyfriend’s parents, stop her best friend from fighting with the biker band member, and figure out her own future all in time for the holidays.

Christmas with a rockstar brings a whole new kind of caroling.

There will be more books in this series eventually following the other band members of Haven, so stay tuned! All 3 novels will go live DECEMBER 11th, 2015 (or sooner!)! Subscribe to her newsletter so you never miss out!

BREAKING A LEGEND GOES LIVE TO RAVE REVIEWS!

October 2, 2015 Sarah Robinson 3 Comments

GUESS WHAT?
BREAKING A LEGEND IS NOW LIVE!

In less than 2 days since it’s release, BREAKING A LEGEND collected over 130 reviews on Amazon and 250 reviews on Goodreads all averaging 4 stars. The mixed martial arts romance also hit #1 in Sports Fiction and was written about in USA Today, as well as being nominated for Best Cover in RT Reviews (go vote!)!

To say that’s a successful release, would be an understatement! I’m so thrilled with how much readers are loving my Rory and Clare because these two are my everything. I absolutely fell in love with not only them, but the entire Kavanagh family. I can’t wait for you all to continue meeting each of the brothers in the subsequent novels in the series!

Thank you so much for such an amazing release!

Hugs,
Sarah Robinson

Perfect for fans of Katy Evans and Monica Murphy, Sarah Robinson’s blistering-hot series debut introduces the Kavanagh brothers—mixed martial arts fighters who work hard, play hard, and love with all their hearts.

As one of the big names at his family’s gym, Legends, MMA star Rory Kavanagh is used to being in the spotlight—until a gruesome leg injury knocks him out of the cage. Rory is left feeling sidelined in more ways than one, battling the inner demons that come with losing the one shot at his dreams. Then Clare walks into his life and gives him a new dream: winning her heart. There aren’t many new faces in Woodlawn these days, but this tough, beautiful stranger makes Rory want to get his life back into fighting shape.

Clare Ivers doesn’t think she’ll be able to tell anyone what really brought her to the close-knit Bronx neighborhood where she just started bartending. But her life’s on pause and her past is catching up fast, try as she might to move on—with new friends, steady work, and a chiseled alpha male trying to get her attention. Even though Rory’s more than a little intense, she can’t deny that her heart beats faster when he looks at her with those soulful silver eyes. Clare thought she was done with love, but Rory might just be man enough to show her she thought wrong.

Includes a special message from the editor, as well as an excerpt from another Loveswept title. (For 18+ years of age)

Breaking a Legend is featured in USA Today!

September 29, 2015 Sarah Robinson Leave a comment

Did you see the big news? Breaking a Legend was featured on USA Today Life (see article here) today! And in case you didn’t know, Breaking a Legend is NOW LIVE!!

Excerpt: Romance is all about happy endings. It’s about that fuzzy warm feeling in your gut (and sometimes a little farther south) that tells you what you just read was wonderful, that life is wonderful, and that we can all do wonderful things. Everything isn’t sunshine and rainbows from the start, though. To get to those happily ever afters, we usually need to learn a few lessons and experience the not-so-wonderful…. (USA Today HEA Blog)

11 Books Sold to Random House! What in the world?

September 14, 2015 Sarah Robinson 1 Comment

I know, I know… I’m so late on announcing this! Most of my closest friends and family already know, but as of two days ago, all the final papers were signed, so it’s time to shout it from the roof tops! So please share this post everywhere and anywhere! 🙂

Penguin Random House, one of the top publishers in the entire world, has acquired ELEVEN (11) books from me. Yes, you heard that right- ELEVEN!!! Last year, PRH purchased 3 of my books on proposal, the first 3 novels in the Kavanagh Legends series (more about that below). Now weeks before the first of those 3 has even been published (a truly humbling sign of their faith in me), they’ve purchased 8 more. 8+3= 11, or at least I hope it does or this will have been very embarrassing.

**cue the champagne cork popping and kazoos!**

So what does this mean?

This means that I will be continuously publishing 2-3 books a year with Penguin Random House for the next several years. I will possibly continue self-publishing when I have the time, and I also have a something else in the works that I’m not ready to talk about yet. So basically, you’re going to see a lot of me. I’m here to stay!

So what will we be reading first?

Kavanagh Legends will officially be a full series, meaning you will get all 6 stories from each of the Kavanagh siblings. A tight knit Irish family of MMA fighters, these alpha males will steal your heart with their blistering hot stories. They can all be read as standalones, but also work nicely together. The first, BREAKING A LEGEND, goes live in TWO WEEKS on September 29th, 2015 and is Rory Kavanagh’s story! The second, SAVING A LEGEND, will be coming in March 2016 and is Kieran Kavanagh’s story. You won’t meet Kieran in Book 1, because he’s in jail…. so there’s that. But don’t worry, he finally gets released in the beginning of Book 2 and his story will SO be worth it- believe me! Don’t forget to preorder both today and add them on Goodreads!

After Rory and Kieran’s books will come Kieran’s twin, Kane Kavanagh, the up and coming mixed martial arts fighter who the entire Kavanagh family is helping to become one of the best. Then it’s Quinn’s turn to tell his tatted and pierced tale, before the youngest brother and NYPD officer, Jimmy Kavanagh, shows he has a law breaking side to him after all. Lastly, their cousin Casey (who has lived with them since she was 4) will get her own story with an in depth look at the Kavanagh family’s ties to the Irish mafia.

Each and every one of these books will be exciting, hot, and a gripping read! Stalk my Goodreads to make sure you don’t miss these and/or subscribe to my newsletter!

So what’s next after the Kavanagh’s?

In between Kavanagh releases, you’ll be getting a separate standalone with some crossover characters, tentatively titled KIDNAPPED for Fall 2016. This will also have characters leading into the new series, HIDDEN HEAT that has a tentative release date of Fall 2017.

This scorching new series surrounds a special tactical squad of the NYPD officers whose sole mission is to complete undercover operations- and they never lose. These bonded brethren of alpha males are dangerous and dynamic, everything from bikers to bodyguards to tattoo artists- they’ve got it all. Stalk my Goodreads to make sure you don’t miss these and/or subscribe to my newsletter!

So what is after the Hidden Heat series?

World domination. And wine. There’s always wine.

So what can I do to help toward your goal of world domination?

Share this news everywhere! AND preorder BREAKING A LEGEND today and share about it everywhere! It comes out in two weeks and I need YOU to help me spread the word! Between now and release, let’s flood social media with this HOT as HECK cover! See the purchase links below!

Love you all! Hugs!

August 17, 2015 Sarah Robinson Leave a comment

WINNER, WINNER, 15K CHICKEN DINNER!!

So, as some of you may know, my Facebook page hit 15,000 likes last week and I was (and am) over the moon about it. I’m so honored and touched that so many readers have found comfort and joy in my writing, and take the time to follow me on social media. I also hit 2,000 followers on Instagram which is my favorite social media platform of all time (where else can I just post pictures of my crazy dogs and my books all day? oh, everywhere else? well, I still like Instagram the best). I might consider doing a giveaway for that next week or something after I’ve relaxed a bit from all this.

Anyways, I celebrated this terrific 15k milestone by hosting 12 different authors on my page over the weekend for a giveaway each, plus one grand prize giveaway from me. Overall, we had over 20,000 people reached and 6,974 entries into the giveaways…. outstanding! Thank you again for being so sweet and supportive, I could never fully express how grateful I am to each and every one of you.

Below is the list of giveaway winners, and if you see your name on that list, CONGRATULATIONS! The next thing you’ll need to do is email my PA, Holly, at sarahrobinson.pa@gmail.com with your information so that we can get your prize to you. The downside is that on Wednesday night by 9pm EST (48hrs from now), if I haven’t heard from a winner, we’ll repick a new winner to get that prize. That new winner will be announced on this same post here, I’ll just edit it to change the name.

Thank you so much for participating in my 15,000 likes giveaways and I hope I’ll see you all again soon when BREAKING A LEGEND goes live in less than 1.5 months on Tuesday, September 29, 2015, and yes, you can preorder it ahead of time! Sales pitch over! 🙂
