Blog reopening New Release spotlight and Contest

Officially reopening my blog (finally, lol) It has been an interesting year or so. Every time things started to straighten out something else went wrong. But I think we are through the worst and I can now focus on things I enjoy. We have relocated to a new state and have purchased an old fixer upper house which I will post updates on restoration projects. I will continue to post on books, authors, products, services, giveaways, deals and random subjects as they come up. Below is my first official reopening post.

Lacey Weatherford has a new release and I thought I'd share her info and links for you all. If you enjoy young adult or new adult books I'd recommend you check out Lacey's work.

CHASED DREAMS: 3rd and Final Book in the Bestselling Chase Walker Series by Lacey Weatherford is now available for purchase.

CHASED DREAMS BLURB: Dreams of the future, dreams of love and happiness, dreams of being able to move on and get past the heartache that still resides in his soul, Chase Walker believes things are finally starting to look up.

But are they really?

When Chase suffers a devastating injury on the football field, his life is thrown into a tailspin once again. Feeling like he’s lost his identity, he struggles with keeping his relationship with Brittney from falling apart, while also trying to find out who he really is inside.

But when dreams from the past resurface, causing old feelings to rise anew and clash with the life he’s living now, Chase is left to wonder if all he really has left is Chased Dreams.

BOOK 1 - CHASING NIKKI (FREE ON ALL E-RETAILERS)

CHASING NIKKI BLURB : Chase Walker used to be a good kid—charming, athletic, and with a bright future ahead, but that was before travesty struck his life, sinking him into deep despair. Caught up in a world of drugs and alcohol, he doesn’t notice time slipping away until he’s arrested for underage drinking one night.

Fed up with watching her son destroy his life, Chase’s mom relocates him to live in a small ranching community with his ex-military grandfather. Chase is far from happy about the situation until he meets, Nikki, the cute cheerleader who won’t give football players like him the time of day.

Chase enjoys a good challenge though and sets out to claim Nikki for his own. He soon discovers she’s more than a pretty face—she’s a balm to his troubled spirit also. But when tragedy strikes Nikki’s life too, suddenly Chase finds himself put to the ultimate test. Can he trust Nikki, and all that she’s taught him? Will it be enough?

After getting a college scholarship to play football, Chase heads off to school, hoping his time on the field will help to bury the intense emotions that still linger in his heart. Fate doesn’t work that way though, and he soon finds himself having to face all the things he’s carrying inside, or he may miss the one shot he has to learn how to love again.

Apologies

For those that actually followed the blog my apologies for not keeping it up. Numerous reasons from personal to technical that ended with the blog being pushed to the end of my priorities. Things are straightening back out and I will be continuing what I had started before. So hopefully before long I will be back to bringing you information on Authors, books, products, contests and everything I love and enjoy.

"THAT VOODOO YOU DO"
http://store.samhainpublishing.com/that-voodoo-p-6518.html
BLURB (from publishers web site):

That Old Black Magic, Book 1 "That Voodoo You Do"

For ten long years Griffin Trudeau has managed to keep his paws off Jemma Finnegan, best friend and leading star of his kinkiest fantasies. As her appointed cat familiar, indulging those fantasies with the delectable witch is strictly forbidden. But when Jemma shows up at his door with seduction in mind, control goes right out the window.

Too late he realizes making love to Jemma is the trigger that launches a zombie apocalypse.

Jemma’s been dealt a double whammy: she’s just discovered she’s a witch. And Griff has been hiding whiskers and a tail. Oh, and if her life wasn’t crazy enough, a dead voodoo queen needs her blood to raise a legion of zombies.

There’s one plan that might work to increase Jemma’s powers so she can put an end to the looming holocaust. A sexy threesome with Griff and Logan Scott, a werewolf familiar with a history of rubbing Griff’s fur the wrong way. A cat and a wolf playing nice, much less sharing? It’ll take a miracle.

REVIEW: In "That Voodoo You Do" Jodi Redford brought a fresh and different look at Witches and Zombies. With a cast of unique characters and page turning storyline "That Voodoo You Do" is one of the funnest and hottest reads I've read this year. The love scenes are scorching. I enjoyed the secondary characters in the story as well as Jemma and Griffin and look forward to reading their stories as soon as I can get my hands on them. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys erotic paranormal romance.

RATING: 5 stars (can't get my star images to work right,lol)

"GETTING FAMILIAR WITH YOUR DEMON"
Coming Soon from Samhain Publishing (available for pre order): http://store.samhainpublishing.com/getting-familiar-with-your-demon-p-6658.html

BLURB (From publishers website):

That Old Black Magic, Book 4 "Getting Familiar with Your Demon"
After too many years learning death from the inside out as the familiar of a voodoo queen, soul collector Samael Gorasola betrayed his boss, which landed him on demon death row.

He should have known not even his punishment would come easy, but the deal he’s offered to escape his fate stinks. Become the indentured servant to his despised enemy? No thanks, he’d rather be six feet under. With that in mind, he picks a deadly fight with two demon hunters, only to be rescued by one misguided, deliciously innocent white witch.

Marabella hasn’t a clue what possessed her to help Sam, particularly since he’s not the least bit grateful. She blames it on her overwhelming attraction to the dark, dangerous demon, and her exasperating quest to rid herself of the stubborn curse that guards her virginity. If the guild finds out, though, she can kiss her white-witch status goodbye.

A kiss is exactly what she gets, followed by a consuming hunger that breaks down all heavenly and earthly barriers…and leaves Sam saddled with the one thing he never wanted, a conscience, and a connection to Marabella that puts her soul on the line.

REVIEW:
Jodi Redford has again written a fun & hot story with a unique twist on the typical witches and demon characters. I couldn't put it down and read the book in one day. I thouroughly enjoyed the interaction between the characters and Sam's reaper cousins add a good dose of humour to the story. Sam's reaction when one of the cousins has to drive his GTO was so completely male I just had to laugh since I could see my husband and most guys I know having a similiar reaction. The love scenes were extremely hot and detailed. I can't wait for the next book in the "That Old Black Magic" series, Jodi Redford has officially become a favorite author and I'll look for anything she puts out to try. If you love a good erotic paranormal romance than this is definitely a book not to miss.

RATING: 5+ stars

The next thing Olivia knows friends are being influenced by evil and her town is under attack by a dark power in an effort to get Olivia's powers. Olivia must learn to fight back to save the town and people that she loves.

Rating: 4 stars

Review:

I loved "A little Night Magic". It was a light humorous romantic read with a little suspense and drama thrown in. The quirky humor in the story gave the characters very unique personalties and kept me turning the page to see what would happen next. The author used a new perspective on the magical powers in the story that I have never seen before and was very entertaining in itself. The story line while having a few weak points still held together and flowed from one scene to the next making me not want to put the book down. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys light romance or anyone looking for a quick fun read.
