Since Friday is normally my day to do errands and clean my house, it’s also a good day for me to do something fun on my blog. My good friend Lauren Dane does a Friday Book Talk, but I’m going to do a Friday Shout Out, instead!
Welcome to my first one!
Akashan’te, the first release from my friend Vicky Burkholder is available now! Give her some mad love, ya’ll, it’s her first one!
blurb:
Rowyn of Cotswold has eyes as black as midnight, bone-white hair, and powers that go beyond anything the world has seen in centuries. Raised by her aunts, she knows nothing about her powers until a fateful day when she returns home to find everything and everyone gone.
A cryptic note and a magical box direct her to the fabled city of Akashan’te at the six sister stars. The fate of the entire world rides on her ability to find the city before conjunction.
A giant of a man, Daniel is determined to guard her and love her no matter what the outcome. On their journey, they encounter friends who benefit from Rowyn’s abilities, enemies who will stop at nothing to control her, and love that will last a lifetime and beyond.
Taking Chase

A battle begins between Shane, who knows what he wants and Cassie, who tries to keep a distance between herself and the very handsome sheriff. But Cassies ex is back and he wants her dead. Book Two of the Chase Brothers Cassie Gambol is on the run.

Fleeing Los Angeles, she heads to small and off the map Petal, Georgia to start her life again. Shane Chase, a man whos held himself away from commitment since his fiance dumped him several years before knows the beautiful newcomer is hiding something. Hes wildly attracted to her strength and her underlying vulnerability as well. But the last thing Cassie wants is another big, overwhelming man who wants to control her life. A battle begins between Shane, who knows what he wants and Cassie, who knows she needs to do everything she can to keep a distance between herself and the very handsome sheriff. But Cassies ex is back and he wants her dead. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, some violent situations.
Witch Fire
blurb:
Fountain of Tears– if you like Evanescence, try this band! I just got their CD and have been listening all morning. Lots of fun, and you can sample their songs on Myspace.
WHAT I’M WATCHING:
Queer as Folk – The Complete Second Season (Showtime)
Supernatural – The Complete First Season
WHAT I’M READING:
That’s a big yeah for Taking Chase, already ordered Witch Fire, love Supernatural, Queer as Folk I watched the original shows, and The Rising, isn’t ringing any bells. What is that one about?
by cathy February 23rd, 2007 at 8:55 pmIt’s a zombie novel, Cathy! Pretty gory and so far, no romance.
by Megan Hart February 24th, 2007 at 9:12 amSince my recent reading tastes are pretty much romance only, I’ll take a pass on The Rising. Thanks for the scoop Megan.
