Saffina Desforges’ ROSE RED crime thriller box set (4-in-1)

WHOOP! WHOOP!

Summer’s here! Right?

Well, looking out of my window right now, you wouldn’t think so!

So, in order to cheer you up (and in anticipation of our late summer release of #3 in the ROSE RED crime thriller series) we thought we’d bundle together the whole collection so far in one awesome box set!

RedRoseBoxSet_CVR-1

2 full-length novels (#1 & #2) and the first two series-related short stories, IN ONE BOOK and all for less than the price of a Grande summer cooler from Costa!

Here’s the links:

Amazon UK

Amazon US

And if you haven’t got a Kindle, fear not! The collection will soon be available on Kobo, Waterstones, iTunes and all other good digital platforms. So whilst you’re waiting for that sunshine, why not get started on your next long-running crime series?

Don’t forget, #3 BEAUTY & THE BEAST is coming soon!

Coming soon!

Coming soon!

Feel free to share and good luck finding the sun! ;-)

Saffi’s Seventy Seven Spring crime-spree sale!!

Okay, so it might have been officially Spring some time ago now, but if like me, you live in the UK, you will still be shivering in your Winter thermals and longing for the sun.

It’s been a very long, hard Winter and for it to have gotten to my birthday and the temperatures to still be in single figures is almost unheard of!

So please, Mister Sunshine: make an appearance!

Yes, you heard right – it’s my birthday next week and it isn’t just any old birthday. Oh no, it’s the MOTHER of all b’days!

My big 4-0! (I know, I know, stop it, you’re too kind! I don’t look a day over 39!)

Anyway, in honour of me celebrating my last few days of my thirties and in order to bring a little long-awaited UV into your life, we have decided to run a Spring Special offer.

Yup. From today, ALL Saffina Desforges crime titles (including the full-length novels) are reduced to the crazy price of 99c or 77 English P! (on both Amazon sites and B&N)

Sugar & Spice

Sugar & Spice (US edition)

Rose Red 1

Rose Red 2

Rose Red Rhymes 1

Rose Red Rhymes 2

ALL are reduced! So get them now! And tell your friends! tweet, facebook it, pin it, share it, shout it from the multi-story whilst looking for your car!

They won’t stay at this price forever!

What are you waiting for?

(Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME…) ;-)

Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to all our readers ~ from Saffina Desforges

Well, it’s been quite a year!

2012-trends-08162012

2012 saw the publication of our first print edition in France (Paraphilia - which we are lead to believe has FAR outweighed our expectations sales-wise. Come back in January to find out how it did) and marked the two year anniversary of Sugar & Spice.

We now have a total of FIVE full-length novels, (two of which are available in print direct from Amazon), two novellas, two short stories, two anthologies and four novellas written under a couple of other names available on all e-reading platforms.

Phew! And in-between that, we have found a little time to blog, tweet, fb, pinterest, stumble and even collaborate on a couple of e-publishing books written by others. Oh yeah, and sometimes we slept… ;-)

“So, what are you gonna give us in 2013, Saffina?”

Ah, well, I thought you’d never ask! ;-)

I am sooooooo excited about the projects we are working on for next year.

We will be releasing books three and four of the Rose Red crime thriller series. Beauty & the Beast will be out first quarter of 2013 and Little Red Riding Hood at the end of the year.

Coming early 2013

Coming early 2013

And just to make sure that you keep up with Red and the team, there’ll be some more Rose Red Rhyme shorts in between!

Speaking of Rose Red Rhymes, you readers have been sooooooo good this year, that we have a little pressie for you. Ring-A-Ring O’Roses is FREE for the next five days!

If you live in the UK, click here. 

RotW, here.

(also free on all other Amazon sites world-wide)

Just a little thank you for being so wonderful! ;-)

Now, where was I? Oh yes, 2013. What else?

Well, the fabulous St. Mallory’s forever ! will be hitting your Kindles (other generic e-reading devices are available) in the New Year, so look out for it!

Aside from that our BIG release and a slight swerve away from our usual stuff, will be the first in our new DARK HALO (urban fantasy) trilogy: First Blood.

First Blood will change the way you think about vampires and angels, forever (and then some)…

There might even be time for a few other surprises along the way. Who knows?

Saffina Desforges, always entertaining. Never what you expect.

So all that remains is for us to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year, we hope to see you all back again in 2013!

Saffi

Saffina Desforges releases ROSE RED RHYMES : Book One ‘Ring-A-Ring O’Roses’ (a dark crime thriller short perfect for Halloween)

Well, it’s been a couple of weeks since the release of our second book in the Rose Red crime thriller series, Rapunzel and we couldn’t be more pleased with the start it has made.

Within a week of its release on Amazon UK, it hit the Top 20 in its category and the top 5o in another.

On Wednesday, it even knocked our own title off the number one spot on Amazon UK in the Crime, Thrillers & Mystery Series category!

We had more sales in two weeks with this book than we had in the first three months of our first book back in November 2010! So, thank you. Thank you to our loyal readers and to the new readers joining us.

*Update as of 26/10/2012 – you wonderful readers have given us a 1-2-3 on the Amazon UK best-seller list!

 

Rapunzel will shortly be available on all other platforms: iTunes, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, Kobo and many other ebook retail outlets. It will also be available to buy in paperback format direct from Amazon before Christmas, as will all other Saffina Desforges full-length titles. Make sure you come back soon for more information!

We hope to continue to offer you quality books at affordable prices…because our readers deserve the best.

And to celebrate that fact, and with a little nod to my personal favourite time of the year, we are pleased to introduce the first of our new short story crime thriller series Rose Red Rhymes.

Ring-a-ring o’roses is a Rose Red crime thriller series related short story and the perfect way to keep up with Red and her team whilst awaiting the next book in the series!

Here’s the blurb:

From SAFFINA DESFORGES, international best-selling author of Sugar & Spice, Anca’s Story and the Rose Red crime thriller series based on traditional fairy tales (Snow White, Rapunzel), comes ROSE RED RHYMES, a collection of crime thriller short stories featuring the Rose Red cast, based on traditional nursery rhymes.

But be warned. These are not for children!

ROSE RED RHYMES 1:  Ring-A-Ring O’Roses

When a rare family day out for Detective Chief Inspector Cass Red Rose and her barrister partner Philippa Crichton-Ward QC is cut short by a murder on Blackheath, Red’s team are faced with the possibility of gang warfare and race riots among London’s troubled youths unless they can sort things. Fast.

With the Super wanting results yesterday, the pressure is on to find the killer. But DCs Barry Taylor and Jez Harris have other things on their mind. As usual. And when the pathologist examining the victim starts pointing out anomalies it’s clear a simple murder case is about to open up new mysteries.

As if Red didn’t have enough problems, the Huntsman is back in town and meeting with the mysterious Queenie. And the kids want to go trick-or-treating. Even the busiest of detectives have to make time for Halloween!

~

 Look out for more Rose Red Rhymes coming soon!

 The Night Before Christmas will be available for the holidays.

The links:

Amazon UK

Amazon.com

Amazon. fr

Amazon.de

It will shortly be released on all other platforms.

Have a happy Halloween and make sure you lock those doors! ;-)

Look out for the next book in the Rose Red Rhymes series: The Night before Christmas due for release mid-December.

Happy reading! ;-)
