Magnificent Monday 1 Day Left!!!

February 4, 2013 by Ally Carter 59 Comments

Hi Girls!

Only 1 day left before PERFECT SCOUNDRELS is available!!!! To get everyone excited I have an excerpt to share!

Kat had to wonder for a minute what that would feel like–homework and uniforms, walks home with nice boys offering to carry your bag. That was her life once. Almost. But Hale had gotten her kicked out of Colgan School, pulled her back into her own world, just like now he’d been pulled back into his.

“So why are you here, Kat?” Nick asked.

“Maybe I was craving waffles.”

“Kat…” He let her name draw out. “I’m pretty sure this is the part where you tell me you need my help to steal an emerald.” He laughed. “Or rob the Henley…”

Kat’s face stayed blank, but something in her eyes must have shifted, because Nick tensed,

“No.” It was like he’d read her mind, because he was already shaking his head, saying, “No. No. No.”

 

Ally will be going on tour so catch her in your area if you can! Here is her schedule:

February 5: 7 PM event at Blue Willow (Houston, TX)

Winner of Magnificent Monday Giveaway!!

January 29, 2013 by Ally Carter 31 Comments

Hi All!

Thank you so much for all the comments! I have really had a great time reading them!

The winner of the Perfect Scoundrels signed copy by Ally herself is….

Frenchie says:

January 28, 2013 at 7:59 am(Edit)

The thing that I like most about the Heist series is probably that it’s different than the Gallagher Girls series. It’s the opposite of what Cammie does. Cammie tries to bring down an ancient group , while  Kat steals different things, bringing them back to their rightful place/owner. The Heist series has different twists and turns, that’s what I like most about them, you don’t know what’s going to happen next. First comment! Yay!

Congrats Frenchie! Please email me at [email protected] and let me know the address to ship your book too.

You may wonder how I picked Frenchie as the winner. Well I assigned everyone a number and did a random number generator to randomly pick the winning number. The number generator picked number 6 and that happened to be Frenchie’s number in the comment section!

 

Thanks to everyone who participated! See you next Monday!

xoxo

Sandy

October 29, 2012 by Ally Carter 61 Comments

Right this minute Hurricane Sandy is on its approach to the East Coast.  I know a lot of you guys live in the area, so please stay safe and know the rest of us are thinking about you!

And…to help ride out the storm I offer you the following PERFECT SCOUNDRELS MINI EXCERPT!

 

The woods seemed different on the long walk back to the car, and Kat couldn’t shake the feeling that she was forgetting something. Then she stopped and looked at the house.

Someone.

Be safe and be good,

Ally

Perfect Scoundrels: a Heist Society novel…

June 28, 2012 by Ally Carter 247 Comments

I hope you’ve all seen it by now (with many thanks to MTV’s Hollywood Crush for breaking the news!), but just in case you haven’t…

 

 

 

Katarina Bishop and W.W. Hale the fifth were born to lead completely different lives: Kat comes from a long, proud line of loveable criminal masterminds, while Hale is the scion of one of the most seemingly perfect dynasties in the world. If their families have one thing in common, it’s that they both know how to stay under the radar while getting—or stealing—whatever they want.

No matter the risk, the Bishops can always be counted on, but in Hale’s family, all bets are off when money is on the line. When Hale unexpectedly inherits his grandmother’s billion dollar corporation, he quickly learns that there’s no place for Kat and their old heists in his new role. But Kat won’t let him go that easily, especially after she gets tipped off that his grandmother’s will might have been altered in an elaborate con to steal the company’s fortune. So instead of being the heir—this time, Hale might be the mark.

Forced to keep a level head as she and her crew fight for one of their own, Kat comes up with an ambitious and far-reaching plan that only the Bishop family would dare attempt. To pull it off, Kat is prepared to do the impossible, but first, she has to decide if she’s willing to save her boyfriend’s company if it means losing the boy.

 

Perfect Scoundrels…

In stores in the US & Canada February 5, 2013

So what do you say, guys?  Are you excited?  Because, dude, I am EXCITED.

-Ally
