Win an ARC of my First Avon Release: HIS DARKEST HUNGER
Friday, January 1st, 2010

Well, it’s time for me to officially launch a contest for a chance to win an Advanced Reading Copy of my very first Avon Book, the first in my Jaguar Warrior series, HIS DARKEST HUNGER.. This book releases March 30th and now is your chance to win an ARC and read it before anyone else! Here is the cover and blurb:

<%image(20100107-His Darkest Hunger official.jpg|401|648|null)%>

Blurb:

Jaxon Castille: jaguar shifter, warrior, assassin. He has long hungered for the chance to make his former lover, Libby Jamieson, pay for her deadly betrayal. After three long years he’s finally found her. The hunt is over…

But the Libby that he finds is not what he expected. She has no memory of their tumultuous affair; of her treachery; of anything beyond her own name. A shadowy and deadly clan has marked them both for death, and in an instant the game changes: the hunter has become the hunted.

On the run, with the ghosts of their past between them and a dark, desperate hunger quickly reclaiming their bodies and souls, Libby and Jaxon must discover the truth behind the dark forces working against them. Together, they must grab hold of a destiny that has the power to either heal them or destroy them.

But the truth is far more shattering than anyone could imagine…

Squeeeeeeeeeeeee! I totally can’t believe this book is coming out! So let’s get to it! The rules are simple:

1. You must blog about my book somewhere in internet land. You may copy and paste the cover…this will get you bonus points (as in more chances to win). Link the blog post back here! Simple no?

2. I will also double your chances to win by cross promoting this contest over HERE at THE BRADFORD BUNCH BLOG. But, to enter on The Bradford Bunch blog you must promote this book on a different site than the one entered here. Again, copy the link and post it there.

3. I will run this contest for Two weeks and announce a winner for the ARC’s (I have 2) on January 16th!

4. I also have some copy flats to give away and will choose winners for those randomly!

Okay, I will admit this is the first time I’ve ever done anything like this so if something doesn’t make sense please let me know!

Happy New Year all and lets hope that 2010 brings much happines, health and success to us all!

    Juliana,
    Wow– that cover is AMAZING! I’m glad I found this contest, because as soon as I clicked on the link, I automatically added this book to my wish list for 2010!

    I’m posting a contest alert (with cover and blurb, plus links to both blogs) on my own blog (http://tbqspersonalbookpala…)

    I’m also heading over to enter on the BB Blog, with a link to another website I’m going to post about it on.

    This is known that money can make people free. But how to act if somebody has no money? The only one way is to get the <a href="http://lowest-rate-loans.co…">credit loans</a> and just collateral loan.
