Blood of the Dark Moon novel has been offered a new contract!

I am VERY pleased to announce that my book, Blood of the Dark Moon, the first in the Dark Moon series, has been offered a contract with Freya's Bower.

Those of you who have been wondering when the book would be back with a publisher...well, now you know! Release date is forthcoming, but I will keep people posted.

Here's a quick blurb of my book:

Amanda, graduate student and devoted follower of the Greek god Apollo, is intrigued when she meets Jesse, a handsome young scholar who shares her love of both the classics and the occult. He quickly sparks her interest--and ignites a dark flame of passion between them. Together, they embark on a shadowy path that leads Amanda straight into Jesse's scintillating underworld of vampires, magick, and secret societies.

Little does Amanda know she is about to fulfill a legacy that began over thirty years ago and ended in tragedy. Can she learn the truth about who she really is in time to help those whom she has grown to care about, and truly find happiness in her new life with Jesse?

Blood of the Dark Moon combines the classic eroticism of vampires with a touch of modern sensual romance and occult intrigue.

Thanks to all of you for your support since my previous publisher's closing. It meant (and means) a great deal to me. I am looking forward to providing my readers with more of my works to come.

CONTEST! How would you like a cool character in a future book named after YOU?

I'm currently chatting with the rest of the Midnight Seductions Authors today over at Rites of Romance, and have a contest going on there until 11pm EST tonight!

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RoRRChatters

I'm about to post a few excerpts from my WIPs to the loop chat--you'll know the WIPs because it'll be indicated as such VERY clearly in the subject line! For every lurker and/or non-MSA member that comes out and comments on these gets to be entered into a special drawing! If you comment by replying to the emails by 11pm EST tonight and mention that you are indeed interested in being entered into the contest, you are eligible!!

The drawing will be done shortly thereafter and the lucky winner will get a character named after them in their WIP of choice, and mentioned in the foreword of that book. That could be any of the following:

- Shadows of the Dark Moon, the sequel to Blood of the Dark Moon in the Dark Moon series
- Blood and Mint Chocolates, an upcoming f/f vampire erotic romance novella in the Dark Moon series
- My Other Car is a Broom, the first book in a yet unnamed series involving modern witches in Salem, the sidhe, and a very bizarre but intense love triangle.

The contest was going on yesterday in two other groups, but due to issues with Yahoo I am extending it to another DAY!
