And that’s a wrap.\u00a0 Contest is now over.\u00a0 Winner names to be posted on Wednesday and per my blog rules, winners will have one week to contact me or I may draw new names for the prizes.\u00a0 To avoid confusion, comments are now closed.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is going to be fast and furious (for me, anyway, closes tomorrow) and be warned, yes, I’ll post the names within a few days, but the prizes won’t be mailed until next week-I’m going out of town on vacation and as wunnerful as you peoples are…well, vacation was already planned and the contest thing was kind of last minute-I figured people would (hopefully) be okay with waiting a few days for their prizes.<\/p>\n

What is the prize?<\/p>\n

This….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Magic Bleeds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Atlanta would be a nice place to live, if it weren\u2019t for the magic. When the magic is up, rogue mages cast their spells and monsters appear, while guns refuse to fire and cars fail to start. But then technology returns, and the magic recedes as unpredictably as it rose.<\/em><\/p>\n

Kate Daniels works for the Order of the Knights of Merciful Aid, officially as a liaison with the mercenary guild. Unofficially, she cleans up the paranormal problems no one else wants to handle\u2014especially if they involve Atlanta\u2019s shapeshifting community.<\/p>\n

When she\u2019s called in to investigate a fight at the Steel Horse, a bar midway between the territories of the shapeshifters and the necromancers, Kate quickly discovers there\u2019s a new player in town. One who\u2019s been around for thousands of years\u2014and rode to war at the side of Kate\u2019s father.<\/p>\n

This foe may be too much even for Kate and Curran, the Lord of the Beasts, to handle. Because this time, Kate will be taking on family\u2026<\/p>\n

If you’ve loitered around here long enough, you’ll know that the Kate Daniels books<\/a> are becoming my UF crack, kinda of like Lynn Viehl\/SL Viehl is my SF & dark fantasy addiction, or JD Robb is my romantic suspense addiction.\u00a0 ;o)\u00a0\u00a0 For those who haven’t<\/em> read these, (although, come on…why not?), no, you don’t have to read the others to follow this one.\u00a0 But once you read this one?\u00a0 You will want to read the others, if you are anything like me.<\/p>\n

I’m getting my greedy hands on this baby-but sadly, can’t keep it.\u00a0 Hee hee, already read it, though.\u00a0 (Yes, I had to get that in.)<\/p>\n

I’m supposed to give it away.\u00a0 Actually, them<\/em> away.<\/p>\n

Yes.\u00a0 Them.\u00a0 You see, I have three<\/em> copies of Magic Bleeds.<\/p>\n

One. Two. Three.\u00a0 And I’m giving to you.\u00a0 Well, three of you.<\/p>\n

So….who wants it?\u00a0 What will you give me for it…no, no, no, scratch that.\u00a0 Never mind that question-I’m not taking bribes, kids, anything like that.\u00a0 We’ll make it open.\u00a0 A free-for-all. Leave a comment, and I’ll draw three random winners.\u00a0 Winning names will be posted on Wednesday-contest will end sometime on Tuesday…not sure when, when I get home-have someplace to be during the day.<\/p>\n

Yep, it’s open across the globe, although, if you’ve never been to my blog, make sure you read my disclaimer<\/a>… because I do enforce the rules-leave only<\/em> one comment per household and do not post this contest to sweepstakes sites<\/em>-I reserve the right to end the contest without giving away the prizes if my rules aren’t upheld.<\/p>\n

The highlights<\/p>\n
