Here, Kitty, Kitty!

Happy Tuesday Everybody,

First of all, reminder:  Laura Childs' new Scrapbooking Mystery, Fiber & Brimstone comes out TODAY. I reviewed this book yesterday. Check here for details.

Now onto the current topic:

Earlier today I finished reading Kerrelyn Sparks' new Love At Stake book (released at the end of September), Eat Prey Love centering around her character, Carlos Panterra.

For those of you who have been reading the series and don't know the truth about Carlos, I will warn you the following is rampant with spoilers regarding what Carlos truly is (if the title of this post didn't give it away).

Carlos is a were-panther in search of a proper female were-panther mate. Since his species is endangered, he feels its his responsibility to find the right woman to help him repopulate and be a mother to his adopted children.

What Carlos didn't bargain for was meeting Shanna Draganesti's sister, Caitlyn Whelan. It's love at first sight (or is that lust at first sight?)

Cait doesn't know what Carlos is at first, but after finding out she's warned to stay away from him. If Carlos should bite her the shift might kill her.

Unfortunately for Carlos, his plans to avoid Caitlyn (and temptation) are completely thwarted when she joins McKay Security & Investigation and he has to train her. You see, Caitlyn has no aim. Anytime Caitlyn's bullet hits the paper target or her knife hits the straw man, it's right smack dab in the man's groin. Fortunately, these men aren't real. But still, she was aiming for the chest. Apparently that doesn't seem to matter. She manages to hit the target there each time she even hits it at all.

Carlos figures the best way to accomplish both his goals (a mate and avoiding Caitlyn) is to take a trip to Thailand to follow a lead concerning the possibility of other were-panthers. What he didn't bet on was Caitlyn using her unique abilities to be able to accompany him on his trip.

How will either of them survive the trip with the passion sizzling between them and the wild beast lurking in the shadows?

Once again, Kerrelyn takes you on an adventure through the unpredictable world of paranormal and love.

To purchase one of Kerrelyn's books you can go to any of the following places (although, I found my copy at a grocery store, so you can try there, as well):

Barnes & Noble

Borders

Amazon

Have A Tantalizing Tuesday!

Shannon,

I really like her characters, the funny moments and the storylines. She does a good job of making you care about what happens and about the character. Also, I end up laughing out loud in the process. Thank you for dropping by and supporting Kerreyln :-)

Kerrelyn,

Not a problem...it made me laugh out loud and even though it sometimes earns me a raised eyebrow from my husband, I love your characters, storylines and humor :-)

It's Worth A Fortune

Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
