Re: Of Flesh and Blood - Chatillon, Foster, Holland

Completely off the cuff blurb for Polishing Saber.

Polishing Saber is not your average vampire tale. No Carpathians. No dark, brooding, deadly handsome men wanting to give you the ultimate hickey. Polishing Saber's vampire is one of the Old Ones--kin to the Hidden Folk in Icelandic mythology. Shape-shifters, too, they have protected their homeland for millennia from the insidious draugur--witches wearing dead man's trousers. The Necropants. Flayed from the skin of a corpse, steeped with magic runes and foul desires to control, usurp and bring unhealthy changes to Iceland, the Necropants have a will of their own. Including the need for their wearer to consume blood.

Necropants have been found. An Old One has awakened. Big business is planning the utter destruction of Iceland's pristine wilderness. And Saber Evangelista holds the key that all three forces wish to possess.

Saber, an African-American/Korean descent American woman with a kick-ass attitude, brains more powerful than Einstein's and a fabulous booty is all about the money. Transferred to Iceland as a computer consultant for AlumaTrends, Saber's poor choices from the past catch up with her when she finds herself in bed--literally and figuratively--with forces from both sides.

Excerpt: Polishing Saber

Quote:
Gisli cursed under his breath at the opening of the clay tomb found buried in a niche in the cliffs by an eiderdown gatherer. It was a remarkable find. One with dire consequences. He had long rued the day; wished for it never to come.

He had thought the item well-hidden. He had been entrusted to preserve it as a reminder of the great war between the Hidden Folk and the witches; a silent memorial in hopes that such wickedness would never live to serve and control humankind again.
The Old Ones, Gisli included, had grown complacent and even arrogant and vein thinking that they had ridden the world of men and women from the fabric of evil.

The moment the warm hand of the down gatherer touched the clay sarcophagus, Gisli awoke from his long sleep and he realized his dreams of a secure homeland were false and misleading. The ever vigilant, but rarely combatant Hidden Folk, called him to action. He was responsible, thereby he was charged to put right the situation.
He, himself, had sealed the baked earthen box and witnessed in silence as volunteer Hidden Folk transported it and hid it deep inside the basalt of Grimsey. They had sacrificed their lives to the sea after that last great act to protect the secret.

Only Gisli remained—and he went into deep hibernation.
Four hundred years passed. Time, tide, wind and rain had eroded just enough of the crypt to make it the perfect place for eider ducks to nest and leave behind their soft, highly sought-after down.

The man who found the box didn't know what it was--but knew enough to phone the Museum of Sorcery and Witchcraft in Hólmavík, a small fishing village in the western fjords. It was no coincidence that said museum had been founded so far off the beaten track. It had been built upon the epicenter of witchcraft in Iceland. In the lands sacred to the Hidden Folk. In the lands coveted by developers.

Hopefully, there is room in the hearts and computers of readers for a new breed of vampire. This ain't your mama's Carpathian. This is a blood-sucking, shape-shifting , very blonde, very attractive Old One out to save Iceland from developers.

I kind of used this photo as a "reference" for Gisli.

He's a shifter of the feathery kind.

Re: Of Flesh and Blood - Chatillon, Foster, Holland

Blurb for "Dealing with the Dead"

In the futuristic locale of Sin Vegas, things go bump in the night. Vampires, Werewolves and Zombies - OH MY. Humans are rare and remain in hiding.

Melissa and her clan have found a way to survive. Possession. Melissa is a Passage. Allowing herself to be possessed by earthbound souls.

Drake Vermillion is a vampire looking for a quick bite. Instead he finds Melissa, but when she turns ice-cold before the first taste, Drake is intrigued rather than fearful of the huntress.

Melissa may normally hunt creatures of the night, but she makes an exception when Drake offers her the one thing she can't refuse. Help for her clan.

Trusting a vampire, killing zombies and being possessed by ghosts are all part of Dealing with the Dead.

Re: Of Flesh and Blood - Chatillon, Foster, Holland

Oh--I didn't see we were "coming soon" so quickly here!

I'm on the laptop, so I don't have my blurb here to post. But I can give you a brief run down on "Blood Betrayal"

Vampire Vlad Drakul has found the love of his...existence... in the beautiful and intelligent businesswoman, Sofia Martinelli. But is the sex-loving vixen all that she appears to be?

Leo Van Helsing cherishes his family's "calling". Perhaps a bit too much. He'll see the heinous blood-sucker dead... and he's not above using others to obtain his goals--even if it kills them.

One fatal night in Istanbul will change Vlad's afterlife forever. Can he abide a "Blood Betrayal"?

Re: Of Flesh and Blood - Chatillon, Foster, Holland

Unedited excerpt

Quote:
Drake leaned up against the side of Le Cage. It was miserable tonight. Not a decent meal left, he detested draining humans, but it was hard to say where his next meal would come from. He’d purchased a lovely blonde last night. He’d been gentle with her. Drake made love to her first. You never knew where your next good lay would be either. She’d cum three times and during her last orgasm, Drake had every intention of draining her dry when he was interrupted by The Coyotes. They claimed her as one of their marked. She was tattooed but Drake figured the girl was sold. Unwilling to take on an entire pack, Drake let the Coyotes have her. He could not forget the fear laced in her eyes. He whispered to her, “You are safe.” The lie felt bitter on his tongue, but it was better she not know what was in store for her.
He watched all the patrons come and go from the shadows. He lifted his head. He caught a whiff of blood approaching. It was a heartbeat, steady and pounding. The beat slowed down. Normally the beats sped up, a human’s heart knew it was in danger and might never beat again. He retreated further into darkness. She came into his field of vision at the end of the street. God, what a shame he’d have to drain her. She was lovely with porcelain skin and bright blue eyes, scanning everything and everyone as if she owned the world. His eyes impaled her. The sound of a heart beat was faint. She was cold like a vampire. He sniffed the air, unable to smell her blood.
She hurried, not stopping, past vamps, shifters and even a couple zombies. They all ignored her. What was she? It was rare all three ignored potential prey. Especially the zombies, they ate anything, even each other. Gods he hated zombies! Zombies ate vampires when they were most vulnerable, during the day while they slept.
She reached the back door and looked directly at him, as if she could see through the darkness.
“Drake!” She spoke with venom.
Immediately her body flooded with heat. Confusion fluttered over her face as she turned stepped backwards closer to the entrance. It was too late! The werewolves were the first to smell a meal and started towards her. Drake prepared to grab her and scale the wall for the first taste. He could drain her and leave the corpse for whatever may want it.

Thanks, Tina. April gave us "unique" as the photo is not from the usual purveyors of such items. I'm all for standing out in the crowd--especially when it comes to vampire books.

I am enamored with the woman's lips. Love the color of her lipstick. I keep waiting for the guy to come down and smear it

Yipee!!! We got a "vampire friendly" release date! I'm all psyched up for this anthology.

And ain't they a hot duo on the cover? Her blood red lips just really say, "Kiss me--Bite me!"

So hott!

The voyeur in me is going crazy. It's suspended in the perfect moment.

A kiss that turns into a bite that turns back to a kiss again...*pants*

I'm getting some ad time for our October release. I'm going to make three of these, each a little different, each one featuring an author's name and title.

Fun way to not be writing...

Ooo--nice!! What kind of "ad time" is this? I thought this looked like a nice bookmarker... About the only ads I've put out recently.

Love the heart filagree design. too. Thanks, Darr!
