HOLD TIGHT, the sequel to EMBRACE, introduces new supernatural beings and I asked teens to help me name one of them.
Here’s what I told them about the character:
Male in his late teens, stormy white eyes and
pale blond hair. His glamour gives him the
appearance of having honey brown hair & pale
blue eyes. Think pretty boy appearance.
The response was huge. There were so many great names entered that I had a hard time narrowing them down to three, so I took out my trusty hat, tossed in over twenty names, and had my son pull three out.
And the finalists are:
Zion, entered by Dave Martinez
Kashmeir, entered by Alexis Peplow
Dellis, entered by C.J. Cantilena
Here's where I need your help. Vote for the name you like best. The student who entered the
name that receives the most votes and one lucky voter will each win an autographed copy of EMBRACE plus swag or a $15 gift card to Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, or
Starbucks. (Due to the cost of shipping, contest open to US residents only. International residents are still welcome to cast a vote.)
Here’s how it works. There are three
Rafflecopter forms below. Find the form for the name you like best,
click “Vote for …” It's that easy. Plus, there are four additional ways to vote and be entered to win. Come back daily to vote for your favorite name and increase your chances of winning.
Good luck!
Good luck!

What a fun contest!
ReplyDeleteThanks :) I'm excited to see which name will win.
DeleteThis is awesome, Cherie. Fun names!
ReplyDeleteAnd they are names I wouldn't have thought of myself.
DeleteWell, since Rob Lowe wasn't option, I voted for Zion. It was so close between that and Kashmeir for me. VERY fun idea for a contest!
ReplyDeleteHa! Thanks for stopping by and voting!!
DeleteI think it so brilliant that you asked your target audience what the name should be! Plus, I love that your blog readers get to vote. Can't wait to see what name wins.

Thanks :)
DeleteThere's just something about Dellis that compels me... What an awesome contest, and I'm thrilled about the great response you got for the names (AND to learn the title of the sequel)!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize I forgot tell you the name of the sequel. :) It totally makes sense for this book.
DeleteIt was a lot of fun to read through all the names submitted. I do love the three finalists.

DeleteCool contest. Naming your character makes us part of the creative process. I'll be cheering for Zion when you read him to us... ;o)
ReplyDelete:) Thanks for voting!
DeleteThis is such a great idea. It's hard to choose. I like both Zion and Kashmeir (mostly because i like the nickname Kash).
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Kashmeir could be shortened to the nickname Kash. :)
DeleteSo excited there is going to be a sequel to Embrace :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear it!!!
DeleteIncluding your readers in selecting a character's name is a most ingenious idea. Yes,shipping costs are so high, you'd think we were shipping stuff to the moon. As it's a US contest, I'll just watch. I do like the name Kashmeir. Feather
ReplyDeleteFeather, you can still cast your vote. Votes are counted from around the world. Thanks for stopping by!!
DeleteCherie great ideal! I love the name Dellis :) Can't wait to see which name is in Hold Tight, hoping it's Dellis lol!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait either! Thanks for stopping by. :)
DeleteIt is a fun contest. Thanks for inviting me.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! :)
DeleteI'm going Zion all the way! Love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for voting!!
