"All's Well That Ends Well" by C. E. Wilson

NEW RELEASE and GIVEAWAY
All's Well That Ends Well
(Shakespeare for Everyone Else Book 3)
by C. E. Wilson


C. E. Wilson breathes new life into one of William Shakespeare's plays in All's Well That Ends Well, the third book in her series Shakespeare for Everyone Else. Also available: Much Ado About Nothing and Othello (read my blog post).



This book blitz and giveaway is brought to you by YA Bound Book Tours.


Description
When Hannah’s world falls apart after graduation, she finds that there are only two things from her old life that she can trust: her best friend Constance, and her fascination with Constance’s cousin Benjamin. But when Benjamin snubs her advances for superficial reasons, Hannah decides that she will have him no matter what the cost. Hannah gathers a diverse group of allies to help her finally get what she’s always wanted.
In this YA retelling of William Shakespeare’s All’s Well that Ends Well, follow Hannah as she goes to the ends of the earth in her pursuit of the ungrateful Benjamin. Are there limits to love and devotion, and is all truly well that ends well?

Excerpt
Is there anything else?”
“Yes,” she said, leaning forward. “Kiss me.”
He nearly choked and crumbled the hundred in his hand. “W-what?”
“You heard me, Benjamin. I want to know what it’s like. I want you to know what it’s like. Just kiss me once and I swear I’ll leave you alone.”
“Go home, Hannah. You’re crazy.”
“Benjamin. One kiss never hurt anyone.”
“I’m telling you, go home. I won’t do it. Even if you somehow managed to prove to me that you’ve changed – I wouldn’t believe you. I can’t believe you.”
“There has to be something I can do.”
With a smirk, he reached into his shirt and pulled out a thin chain hanging from his neck. It wasn’t anything particularly special, just a simple silver chain with an old ring hanging from it. It looked tarnished but Hannah could see immediately how much it meant to him. “Yeah,” he said with a sarcastic grin. “When you get a hold of my great-grandmother’s necklace, I’m all yours.”

"Othello (Shakespeare for Everyone Else #2)" by C. E. Wilson

NEW RELEASE and GIVEAWAY
Othello
(Shakespeare for Everyone Else #2)
by C. E. Wilson


Shakespeare's work features some of the most memorable stories and characters ever created, yet for too many curious readers the combination of ultra-dense dialogue and unfamiliar historical settings make tackling the Bard’s work something between a tedious chore and a confusing mess of bird-bolts and quondam carpet-mongers.
While it's nearly impossible to replicate or improve on these works, it is (thanks to their timeless nature) possible to make them more accessible to a wider audience.
In this Young Adult retelling of one of William Shakespeare's most memorable plays, join C. E. Wilson as she breathes new life into Othello, the second book in her series Shakespeare for Everyone Else. Also available: Much Ado About Nothing.

Description
When Archer decides that he's had enough of Orion and Devony running what he thought was going to be his school he takes desperate measures to ruin everything. Through lies and betrayal, deceit and deception, Archer will stop at nothing to get what he wants, and he doesn’t care whose lives he has to destroy in the process.
Can anyone stop one of William Shakespeare's most villainous characters in this YA retelling of the epic tragedy of Othello?

Excerpt
Orion’s eyes widened.  “I’m…I’m sorry.  I didn’t mean to imply—”
“Imply?  You didn’t imply anything!  You said it straight out!  Can you just forget what I told you?  If this is how you’re going to act then I wish that I never said anything!  Orion, I don’t think she’s cheating on you, I just thought you should know what I saw between her and Micah!”
“I know!  I get it, I get it,” Orion said.  “I’m sorry.  I know what you’re doing, Archer.  I really don’t think that Devony would cheat on me, let alone with Micah but damn, I can’t get these thoughts out of my head.  I need to know if there’s a way to prove this.  Even if she might still be faithful, I can’t convince myself of that fact.  Your words…” he trailed off, looking at his tray, “…poisoned me.”
“That was never my intention,” Archer said.  “Look, I’m sorry about what I said.  Is there anything I can do?”
“Proof.”
