LUCAS REVIEWS AND GIVEAWAYS CONTINUE!

Okay, lots to talk about this week. First, LUCAS is now available in paperback. Amazon has it listed, but is showing a 5-8 week delivery. This HAS to be because of their shipping issues as a result of Sandy, because I know my publisher is already shipping and so is BN.com. Be aware, however, that since Amazon is not shipping, BN.com is not discounting the cover price. So, if you want the paperback, you should probably try my publisher’s website instead, because it IS discounted there.

Buy links are:

IMAJINN BOOKS (Paperback and PDF e-book)

BN.com (Paperback only)

AMAZON.com (Kindle e-book, and paperback but w/shipping issues for now)
.
Moving on … there is still time to enter some of the giveaways from last week, including ….

PARANORMAL HAVEN, with a short tale of Lucas at the Harvest Festival and a guest appearance by Kathryn. 🙂

THESE DEADLINE DATES ARE ACCURATE TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, BUT SUBJECT TO CHANGE. SO, BE SURE TO CHECK THE GIVEAWAY REQUIREMENTS AND DEADLINES FOR THE INDIVIDUAL GIVEAWAYS.
.
Okay, more giveaways! That’s the old contests, and now for some new ones!

This Tuesday, Nov. 6, I’m at READING BETWEEN THE WINES BOOK CLUB. There’s an excerpt of LUCAS, and a giveaway.
.
And on Thursday, Nov. 8, I’ll be at BITTEN BY PARANORMAL ROMANCE talking about why I like writing books for adults (sex…and other stuff, too) and a sampling of my sweet, sexy Lucas in action.
.
And there’s more to come! But I’ll give you those dates when we get closer.
.
In the meantime, the reviews are coming in on LUCAS, and I think he’s a hit. I know I love him, but I think I’m not alone. Here’s just a couple of excerpts from the Review Blogs that have come in.
.
From LA DEETDA READS
Action and then more action. Sexy and steamy. This gripping novel is everything you could want in a romantic thriller. The heroine is a no-nonsense FBI agent and the hero is another of D.B. Reynolds’ hot sexy Lords of the vampire nation. The finding of Daniel, her brother, is the catalyst that initiates the “cop” and the vampire’s interaction but then fate intervenes and combines the two into the most satisfying sizzling chemistry.

And from Stephanie at PARANORMAL HAVEN
A notorious flirt and a man who readily enjoys life’s pleasures, Lucas also has a serious edge and power that when let loose, can be felt far and wide. With a somber past that tugs at your heart and a commendable love and devotion he feels towards his people, Lucas was everything I’d hope he’d be and more.
.
And all of you, my wonderful readers, who have posted reviews on Amazon and shared on Facebook and Twitter! Thank you so much!!
.
It’s been a busy week, keeping up with all the news and writing promo stuff. Plus it’s NaNoWriMo time! For those of you who’ve never heard of NaNoWriMo, it’s an annual November event when 200,000 plus writers worldwide commit to writing 50,000 words in one month. And “commit” is the right word, because we should all be committed for this insanity. But it’s great fun, and I get a lot of work done. In fact, my first draft of RAPHAEL was my NaNo project way back when.
.
When not pounding on my computer, I’m indulging my new TV obsession, which is BIG CAT DIARY!! OMG I love this program! I only wish they’d show the damn episodes in order, because I’m all over the Masai Mara! And I haven’t forgotten the ruggedly handsome Rick Castle — I’m on Season 4. I also ventured to a movie with the DH this week. I persuaded him to see Gerard Butler (of the charming Scots accent) in Chasing Mavericks (in which his Scots accent is nowhere to be heard.) Great surf movie!! And based on a true story.
.
On the book front (that is, OTHER people’s books) I read SCORCHED, the latest from Laura Griffin, one of my favorite authors. I’ll be posting my review on GoodReads later this week.
.
Okay, it’s back to NaNo for me. I need to get some words in before this night is over.
.
Before I go, I want to send my thoughts out to everyone affected by Sandy’s destruction. I have friends and family back there, and it’s been awful for them. I encourage everyone reading this to donate to the Red Cross at WWW.REDCROSS.ORG. This is one of those times when we have to pull together, and give what we can.
.
And finally, if you live in the U.S. … DON’T FORGET TO VOTE!! No matter who your candidate is, voting is a privilege — don’t waste it!
.
See you next week…
