Hey everyone! today I am truly excited host Karen Ann Hopkins here on her fantastic tour for Rachel’s Deception, which is a spin-off of her famous Temptation series!
 The powerful family saga, that started in Temptation continues with Noah’s little Sister and today I have Karen’s possible Dream cast for you guys!
The Temptation Series has been optioned for TV & here we have Karen’s Dream Cast!
Thanks for having me today! In June of last year, I sold the option rights for the Temptation series to Pilgrim Studios. It’s been an exciting time, but also a nail biting one, too! Pilgrim has been in talks with a major cable station for a while now. There’s a lot of negotiating and the pace of these talks is exceptionally slow. Putting books onto any screen, whether it’s a motion picture movie or a cable TV miniseries, is a very daunting endeavor. There’s a lot more to it than just having an appealing story. But I’m keeping my fingers (and toes) crossed that I’ll hear good news soon!
Honestly, I hope the cast will be a group of talented, fresh faced actors, but I did a little research to come up with my possible dream cast.
- Rose ~ Victoria Justice, Victorious
- Noah ~ Brant Daugherty, Pretty Little Liars
- Justin ~ Chace Crawford, Gossip Girl
- Sam ~ a younger Channing Tatum
- Summer ~ Chloe Moretz
 
 
 
Thank you so much for your interest in Rachel’s Deception, the Temptation series, and my other books: Embers (YA paranormal), Lamb to the Slaughter and Whispers from the Dead (adult Amish mysteries)! I love to connect with readers and I’d be happy to answer questions about the Amish way of life. Please contact me at my website: www.karenannhopkins.com or you can message me on FB, Twitter, and Instagram.
Happy Reading,
Karen Ann Hopkins
Oh so what a delicious cast!! I truly keep my fingers crossed to see this series on TV!!Â

Growing up Amish is difficult…but leaving it behind is even harder.
Noah was Amish…Rose wasn’t. Being together should have been impossible. But somehow they found a way to make it work. They are finally a family, but their happily-ever-after is still a long off. Will Rose and her friends be able to force real change?
Karen Ann Hopkins returns with a gripping new book in the YA Temptation series. The powerful family saga continues with Rachel’s Deception, as events spiral out of control in the sleepy farming community of Meadowview. And Rachel Miller has her own secrets to hide. Noah’s younger sister has been living a double life. That is, until Justin Cameron, Rose’s little brother, catches her in the act. Rachel is not the obedient Amish girl that her sister was, and her rebelliousness takes her to a very dangerous world. A world that only her true friends can help her escape from.
As Rachel questions all she has been taught about love, family, and commitment, Rose discovers what it really means to be shunned. And an evil shadow looms on the horizon, threatening not only Rose, but everyone she holds dear.

About Karen Ann Hopkins
You can visit Karen Ann Hopkins at her website.
Karen Ann Hopkins resides in northern Kentucky with her family on a farm that boasts a menagerie of horses, goats, peacocks, chickens, ducks, rabbits, dogs and cats. Karen’s main job is home schooling the kids, but she finds time to give riding lessons, coach a youth equestrian drill team, and of course, write. She was inspired to create her first book, Temptation, by the Amish community she lived in. The experiential knowledge she gained through her interactions with her neighbors drove her to create the story of the star-crossed lovers, Rose and Noah.
Karen grew up about a mile from Lake Ontario in Upstate New York. She was bitten by the horse bug at the age of five, and after diligently taking riding lessons for several years, was rewarded with her first horse when she turned eleven. The feisty horse’s name was Lady, a Quarter Horse-Thoroughbred cross, who became Karen’s steadfast companion. Through the years, the constant force in her life was horses. Eventually, she found her place as a riding instructor herself. Before accepting her fate in the barnyard, she worked a short stint as a paralegal, traveled abroad, and guided tourists on horseback riding tours in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee.
Karen is currently working on her Amish mystery series, Serenity’s Plain Secrets, along with the YA paranormal/fantasy series, The Wings of War.  Karen is also excited to announce the Temptation series has been optioned for TV by Pilgrim Studios and is available on Audible. More books in the Temptation series are in the works.

It’s the perfect cast! And Brant Daughert is exactly how I imagined Noah to look: sweet looking but oh so hot.

And thank you so much for hosting this giveaway. I don’t even care about the gift card, I need her books badly! I read Temptation and I was hooked. I keep debating with myself whether or not I want to buy the rest of the books in the series because I already pay a subscription on Scribd and Kindle Unlimited so I am trying to curb my spending lol. I hope the books become available or I win this. Eeeeeeep. Noah is a dream <3 Lamb to the Slaughter, Whispers from the Dead and Embers sound amazing. Lamb to the Slaughter and Whispers from the Dead is another Amish romance- YAY and Embers is a paranormal romance- my favorite… Fingers crossed!
