So this giveaway is to break away from the Paranormal, Romance and/or Young adult books that so easily populate many book blogs (including this one!).
I know time is of value so here is what I have for grabs:
Summary: "Against the backdrop of
the global economic downturn, the need for work brings Mara from Latvia
to South East London. Working for Spencer in the Hungry Londoner Café is
not easy—he’s a sleazy, woman-hating, low-life with no moral compass
and a bad gambling habit and, when he goes a step too far, Mara tries to
think of a way to get even.
One evening, Mara discovers mysterious drawings of wild flowers on the pavement of the Pendean Council Housing Estate and can’t stop thinking about who has created them and why…
Callum is a young Irish gardener, working in London. A handsome, enigmatic figure, his solitary efforts to bring beauty into people’s consciousness captivates Mara. Fate and unstoppable chemistry throw Mara and Callum together and start a chain of events that they quickly lose control of.
When Mara discovers Spencer is organising ‘back-room’ fighting, the pair plan an elaborate sting to part Spencer from his ill-gotten profits. The scam takes them ever deeper into the murky and dangerous world of urban fight gambling and challenges Callum’s understanding of who he is and what he wants from life.
The gripping conclusion reveals the unpredictability of human nature and how revenge can become a double edged sword. A story of outsiders, human frailty and self-realization."
