With the new release of Lover Unleashed, author J.R. Ward announced which brother would be featured in the next book.  I am so excited at who she chose!!!!!

As some of you know, my heart has always belonged to Tohr.  He has always been my favorite brother next to V.  If I can figure out how to get the video embedded, I will updated this post. 
But here is the link to her announcing Tohr as the next Brother who gets a book:

I had an awesome week worth of books! I went to the next town over where Borders is closing and purchased a bunch of books. My husband spoils me so much! He knew I was wanting to go so he surprised me with a surprise day of book shopping. I also preordered Lover Unleashed a week before it was released and was fuming that it didn’t arrive until today! Over a week of being steamed at Amazon for the slowest shipping ever and it finally arrived!! Unacceptable Amazon!

Here is what showed up in my mailbox this week!

I was pleasantly surprised when author Olivia Cunning told me that a snippet of my review for Back Stage Pass was included in the beginning of Rock Hard!  I was listed with other awesome reviewers and this just goes to show how addicted to the series I am!!!  I own 2 finished copies of Back Stage Pass, 1 ARC of Back Stage Pass, 1 ARC of Rock Hard and now 1 finished copy of Rock Hard!  Yes, I am addicted to The Sinners and will one day become Trey’s girl!!

New Cover Reveal and Contest!

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

I was so excited to open up my email today and discover that author M. Leighton had emailed me the new cover design for her book, The Reaping.  If you recall from my review, I loved this book!  This book is one you need to check out!  You can find my review HERE.

Since the cover has been redesigned, and is GORGEOUS, the author agreed to host a contest here on my blog!  So not only are we getting first look at the new cover, but TWO lucky people are going to each win an ebook copy of The Reaping!!!

THE REAPING
Author: M. Leighton
SUMMARY:
Every hell has its devil. And Carson is about to become intimately acquainted with hers.

Seventeen-year-old wallflower Carson Porter has always dreamed of being something special, but what she gets isn’t exactly what she signed up for.

Yeah, a girl’s supposed to change as she gets older, but this is ridiculous! Shiny skin, greener eyes and a run-in with the flesh-eating dead are just a few of the changes Carson has to adjust to, not to mention the arrival of the very hot and very dangerous Derek Hrolf. If all that wasn’t enough to turn her once hum-drum life into something unrecognizable, a twin sister that haunts her from the shadows and a wheeling, dealing collector of souls will definitely do the trick. The question is: what will her life become? And what will she become?

—————————————————————-
CONTEST:
Thanks to author M. Leighton, I have TWO ebook copies up for grabs!  The winners will each get one copy from in a format of their choosing from either Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or Smashwords.
—————————————————————-
RULES:
1. This contest is open to the USA only.
2. No need to be a follower, but I would love it if you would!
3. Leave a comment with an email address to contact you with if you win.
4. Contest will end on 4/5/2011.
 
GOOD LUCK!!!
