Happy Thursday All,
****GIVEAWAY PORTION OF THIS POST IS NOW CLOSED. I AM NOT ACCEPTING ANYMORE ENTRIES FOR IT. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED AND TO KERRELYN SPARKS FOR DONATING THE PRIZE****
Well everybody, you're in for a rare treat. Not only is it an official blog book review day, but the author is also giving away one of her previously released books to ONE lucky person (I'll put details on how to enter near the end of the post...be sure to read them carefully!)
Kerrelyn Sparks has done it again! On March 27, 2012 you will be able to own Phineas’ story, Wanted: Undead Or Alive
In her usual good-humor fashion, Ms. Sparks immerses us in Phineas’ story…from the son of an abused mother, to desperate-for-cash, to Vamp and the “Love Doctor” we see all the many sides of Phineas.
However, those things don’t even define this vampire. Wanting to shuck his careless “Dr. Phang” image, Phineas is in search of something real and lasting. The one-night stands are meaningless. And really, who takes Dr. Love seriously? Even Phineas realizes it’s not the image he wants to portray anymore.
If only he could get werewolf princess, Brynley out of his head. Number 1, she’s irritating. Number 2, in what universe would her controlling father give Phineas, a wrong-side-of-the-tracks vampire the time of day, let alone his daughter?
No, it’s better if Phineas just continues his work on the Blardonnay commercials in hopes of helping MacKay Security and Investigation flush out self-proclaimed Queen of the Malcontents, Corky Currant.
Yet, when he and Brynley are forced together will Phineas’s head or heart win out? And, what about Bryn? Will she ever escape the clutches of her father and his plans for her?
Find out March 27, 2012 when Wanted: Undead Or Alive is released at Amazon and Amazon Kindle also at Barnes & Noble and on Barnes & Noble Nook.
****GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.****
Okay...now you've read the review and pre-ordered (or at least marked your calendar for March 27th) Here's a chance to win the first book Phineas is mentioned...Book 3 of Kerrelyn Sparks' Love At Stake series, Be Still My Vampire Heart.
Here's how to enter:
TO ENTER BY BLOG COMMENT*:
In your comment, tell me what vampire you'd want to meet, it can be any vampire from any author. IMPORTANT: Please include your FIRST name and EMAIL ADDRESS. If you do NOT include a first name and an email address you will NOT be entered (the winner will be contacted by email).
*Keep in mind comments are published manually by me--that means when you leave a comment here it won't show up in the comment section until I've pushed the "publish" button.

I can't wait to get a copy of Dr. Phang's story. I am so jealous of everyone who has had an opportunity to read this already.

Thanks for posting this! Now I have some new books to add to my library.

PHYLLIS M.--I saw both your comments...I published the one with your email b/c that's the entry one. I haven't read Lara Adrian or Tina Folsom--there are so many incredible authors out there, it's sometimes hard to get to all of them LOL. Thank you for dropping by. You're entered :-)
Lynne--Roman is very cool! Thank you for stopping by. I have you entered :-)
June M. March 27th isn't that far away, so you don't have long to be jealous! Angus is also a very cool vamp--actually I think pretty much all of them are, but I have my faves--I like Roman, but even more than that I like Gregori best and Phineas is up there, too. Thank you for stopping by. I have you entered :-)
Thank you for dropping by :-)

I forgot to mention about Kerrelyn's book launch party. Katy Budget Books in Houston, Texas. This weekend she'll be in Virgina--check her Facebook page for details.
Jean-Luc is awesome. Hee hee, I laughed out loud reading THE UNDEAD NEXT DOOR...although, I usually laugh out loud reading Kerrelyn's books. She's got a great sense of humor.
Thank you for dropping by and I have you entered :-)

A lot of people really like Louis. I never read Anne Rice, but I respect her talent and success. She's very imaginative and creative and I have to admire that!

AndieLeah -- A lot of people have mentioned JR Ward to me. I've seen her around, I just haven't really sat down and read her work, yet. But it looks like she's very talented! Thank you for dropping by, I have you entered :-)
So yeah, I'd definitely want to meet him one day and hang out.

Brittany -- Like I told Nora, I've never read the NIGHT HUNTRESS--who are they by? Yep, I like Angus, too...but he's not my favorite of Kerrelyn Sparks vampires--my fave is Gregori! Thank you for dropping by, I have you entered :-)

Sounds like fun series. Who are the authors of the 2 series you mentioned?

Love all the Love At Stake books. Just the right combination of humor, romance, and action.

Yep, Robby does wear his kilt and so does Angus. Angus makes me laugh about it, too--making sure when he teleports his whole body makes it.
Thank you for stopping by, you're entered :-)
I haven't read Anita Blake, but I've seen her name mentioned on here off and on when the subject of vampires comes up. Sounds like she's a very talented writer.
Thank you for stopping by, you're entered :-)

Sounds good!
Thank you for stopping by, I've got you entered :-)
So, I choose Angus. Why, He's older so he know what he likes, very masculine, beter to wrap me in his arms and keep me safe. Love a Scotsman (don't tell my Irish husband). Nothing sexier than a man in a kilt with long red hair. Wow. I had great dreams about him.
Thanks for the contest.
Cheers,

Good news! I've heard of Irish men wearing a kilt, so it's not only a Scottish thing.
Thank you for stopping by, I've got you entered :-)
I would want to meet ANY vampire, in the daytime, with Von Helsing by my side!
Glad you were able to make it by!
Are you entering the giveaway? If you are, please provide an email address.

I would LOVE to meet Acheron from Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series, Rehvenge from JR Ward's BDB series and/or Angus from Mrs. Kerrelyn Sparks own Love at Stake.

Hmmm I don't know if they have vampire fusion of Scotch, yet (vampire fusion cuisine is sythetic blood mixed with a flavor). I wonder what they would call that!
But Angus would be fun to meet.
Thank you for dropping by, I have you entered in the giveaway :-)
Anita Blake has been mentioned several times. Looks like I'll have to check her out!

I doubt you're OLD. I got a theory about age: "You're only old if you think you're old." LOL
Thank you for dropping by, I have you entered in the giveaway :-)
Thank you! I read that in another comment and now I feel silly for not remembering because I have actually read some of Sherrilyn Kenyon's work!
Thank you for dropping by :-)
Thank you so much! Yes, someone did let me know, but that's sweet of you to come back. Feel free to return anytime and hang out in this little corner of the internet.
Thank you for dropping by :-)
