Happy (late) Valentine’s Day, everyone!
Will YOU be my Valentine? I sure hope so. And, if not, maybe this Uncommon Criminals min-excerpt can tempt you.
UNCOMMON CRIMINALS: a Heist Society novel
The windows of the brownstone were black, and the street was empty. There were no cars, no nannies pushing strollers or pedestrians jogging home. It felt to Kat as if she and Hale were the only two people in New York City. They could steal anything they wanted.
But I don’t steal anymore, Kat told herself. Don’t steal anything at all.
in stores June 21, 2011

February 15, 2011 at 10:18 pmI can’t decide whether I want to be Mrs. Hale or Mrs. Goode.
Most of the time, I decide on Mrs. Goode. But then when I read Heist, I change my mind… momentarily.

February 15, 2011 at 11:42 pmOMG I love it Ally! And it is so Valentiney. So is she saying she doesn’t want to steal a relationship with Hale??
Sydney says
February 15, 2011 at 11:55 pmAlly after all you’ve done who wouldn’t be your valentine. I can’t wait with everyone around them Kat feels like she and Hale are only ones there is soo sweet will they ever kiss I mean they been best friendz for over 2 years now. But anyways I cannot decide who is better Zach or Hale. Hale is the mischieouve, handsome thief and Zach is the cocky, protective,assassin/spy boy. Who is better can’t decide maybe after Uncommon CRiminals comes out I can make decision but i want to read it soo bad. everybody else agrees with me on this
Catherine says
February 16, 2011 at 12:12 amAhh!! Yes, I will be your valentine, Ally, and thank you for that tremendous gift so much! Eee, I cannot WAIT for June! –PS, I totally agree with that comment from Alwyn haha ^.^
Katie says
February 16, 2011 at 1:00 ami need this book. it’s official
Faith says
February 16, 2011 at 1:11 amAlly, Will you PLEASE get rid of the “spoiler – free zone” post on your blog? It’s annoying and distracting from my reading of your blog. Plus, its irrelevant because everyone has already read the book and we should now be able to discuss it openly. I honestly do not know why its still there anymore…

February 16, 2011 at 3:22 amo.0 eek!!! 🙂 omg..yes, this excerpt has definitely tempted me!! so, yes I’ll be your valentine!! HALE!! HALE!! will we ever find out about his name or will it forever be one of his mysteries? 😉 lol I can’t wait until it comes out in June! Will you ever do a flashback that says in DETAIL what happened when Hale and Kat first met? I know he was home when she went to steal his Monet but is there any other detail, like what did he say and why did he decide to join her? LOVE your books..I CAN’T WAIT until June..seems so far away 😛

February 16, 2011 at 5:26 pmI love Heist Society excerpts, but they will be the death of me. Really, they sound so vague and intresting, that when you finish reading it, you end up looking at the screen for the next hour hoping that magically words will appear, but alas, they don’t. Ahhhh! Is it June yet?

Leah says
February 17, 2011 at 8:16 pmHm… I’d have to go with Hale, only because Zach likes to appear randomly and that can be really annoying if you have bed head.
Anonymous says
February 18, 2011 at 1:49 amI don’t know, I think I like Zach better I don’t know why. I guess we just know more about him. But they both are really awesome 🙂
Rachael says
February 20, 2011 at 4:48 amDitto. I LOVE ZACH!
Rachael says
February 20, 2011 at 4:56 amMaybe I can just sleep away all the days between now and June. Maybe that can make it go faster.
G. Gallagher says
February 24, 2011 at 9:40 pmidk i think both are amazing…… because we do know more about Zach. but….he does pop up everywhere and that could be good and bad because if your not lookin you best ;). but i also think Hale because he is so cute in the book, like how he is with Kat! ugh! such a controversy! lol 🙂
