Monday Mishmash 4/15/13

Happy Monday! Here's my mishmash of thoughts:

1. The Other Marlowe Girl  My buddy Beth Fred's second book in The Marlowe Girls series is out! Get it here.

When twenty-four-year-old dance school drop out Kammy Marlowe is evicted by her mother, she goes to her favorite hangout. She finds an unlikely friend in the blunt eye candy, Enrique. But Kammy knows there is no way she and Enrique have a shot because he's her brother-in-law’s brother and has been privy to her wild past. 



Enrique swears he’s only interested in the person she is today, but their relationship is tested when her ex-husband's drug dealer attacks her, looking for money. With no options and a money hungry drug dealer on her back, Kammy accepts a position as a dancer at a strip club. But when Enrique shows up at the club, their relationship is over. With no reason to stay in Texas anymore, Kammy auditions for the Bolshevik Ballet and gets the opportunity to go to Russia. Only Enrique is determined to stop her. 



Will she give up the chance of a lifetime to stay with the man she still loves?

2. Stomach bug  My daughter was sent home sick on Thursday with a stomach bug. That's better, but now she has this awful congestion that makes her sound like a whispering frog. Poor thing. 

3. Love All is only $0.99!  The price of Love All has been lowered to only $0.99! If you want to snag a copy before book two in the series releases next month, now's the time. You can get it on Kindle or Nook. 

4. Into the Fire Edits  I'm up to my chin in edits for Into the Fire, but my editor is amazing, so I'm excited.

5. Less than 4 months until Stalked by Death releases! So... I'm giving away some SWAG. I got these awesome "Ophi in training" pins. Who wants one?
I'll pick three winners on Saturday, April 20. Just fill out the rafflecopter below. Good luck.


That's it for me. What's on your mind today?

    I love your pins! Very cool swag. I'm on the ARC list for Stalked by Death and I'll be on the ARC list for your other books, too. So hopefully I'll get a pin (that's a big hint) :)

    What's on my mind today - less than 2 months until PODs releases (yay!). It's exciting and a little scary.

    Milayna, my second book, was just announced with the cover reveal last week. I'm hoping it gets a lot of interest so the other two books in the trilogy will be signed (another hint - please, everyone, add Milayna to your goodreads list--if you do you might win a signed copy of PODs!)

    And my son is home with the nasty stomach bug today. So far it's made it through our entire family. Hopefully Evan will be the last one to get it!

    That's it for me!

      Oh, it's definitely not the flu. It passed way too quickly for that. Thankfully!

On my mind today is writing a couple of a reviews, continuing my reading, and working on a couple of blog posts, then taking the evening to spend some quality time with family :) I look forward to reading both Touched by Death and Stalked by Death!!
