Summary
from
Goodreads:
Serena
knows a few simple things. She will always be
owned by a warlock. She will never have
freedom. She will always do what her
warlock wishes, regardless of how inane,
frivolous, or cruel it is. And if she
doesn’t follow the rules, she will be
tarnished. Spelled to be bald, inked, and
barren for the rest of her life—worth less
than the shadow she casts.
Then her ownership is won by a barbarian
from another country. With the
uncertainty that comes from belonging to
a new warlock, Serena questions if
being tarnished is really worse than
being owned by a barbarian, and tempts
fate by breaking the rules. When he
looks the other way instead of punishing
her, she discovers a new world. The more
she ventures into the forbidden, the
more she learns of love and a freedom
just out of reach. Serena longs for both.
But in a society where women are only
ever property, hoping for more could be
deadly.

“There
were times when I had to fight back my tears
and the emotion that this book drew from
me made me feel so connected to what
was going on as if I was actually there.
You Are Mine should be on everyones
to-read list and I cannot wait to see
what Janeal Falor comes up with
next.”

Excerpt
#1:
My
insides hurt.
I fold my arms across my stomach as they
head out, but it doesn't help with the
pain. I move to
follow.
Mother
touches
my elbow. The touch startles me to a
stop and she lets go. “I remember when I
was chosen by your Father. It was a
troublesome time, but you can do it. You're
strong and your sisters need your
example.”
I close
my eyes
and shake my head before opening them
again. “I don't think I'm that type of
strong.”
Mother
sighs.
“Maybe not, but you still have to go
through it, society expects it. You'll
have a new owner
soon.”
She's
right. A
warlock could ask to buy me at any time.
There's nothing I can do about it. I
follow mother from the room, bowing my
head with the hope that it will keep
further attention from me. But it's too
late to hope. I will always be
owned.
About
the Author
Janeal Falor lives in Utah where she’s finally
managed to
live in the same house for more than
five years without moving. In her spare
time she reads books like they’re nuts
covered in caramel and chocolate, cooks
whatever strikes her fancy, and enjoys
the outdoors. Her husband and three
children try to keep up with her
overactive imagination. Usually they settle
for having dinner on the table, even if
she’s still going on about the voices
in her
head.
