MEET & GREET: Clark Public Library - Author Event

 

Clark Public Library will be hosting an Author Meet & Greet on Saturday, October 26 from 2-4pm.

Read This: BEWARE OF PLAGIARISM: "Amazingly Broken" by Jordin Williams!!

* I am sad to say that one of the books that was recently promoted on my blog, was a fraud. "AMAZINGLY BROKEN" by JORDIN WILLIAMS. Of course, at the time of the blog tour...no one knew this. I personally have not read this book...and now I never will. But, I did however do a spotlight on the book as well as an author interview. 

At the time of this post, the book has been taken down from Amazon.com ... hopefully other online retailers have taken the same action. If you were one of the MANY people who purchased this book, you can get a refund. I feel so bad that I even had this book on my blog and recommended it to all you awesome readers. For real, you all are beyond fabulous and you are what keeps me blogging. Each time I see a comment from one of you, I get all giddy! Haha, it's true! I just get so excited that people out there are reading what I write. You guys are also what allowed me to be brave enough to start writing my own book. And I think you all with love it. =)

Anyway..."Amazingly Broken" by Jordin Williams blatantly plagiarized "Easy" by Tammara Webber and "Beautiful Disaster" by Jamie McGuire. And no...it wasn't just the basic idea of these books. We do see this happen a lot (and no that doesn't make it okay). But if you check out this website right here, this blogger shows you some line by line examples of the author's copying. It's truly insane, and I really think you all should take a look at it. Even if you don't read through the whole thing...you'll see all the highlights. All those highlights are some examples of the plagiarizing she did.

So again...I'm sorry that this book and author were even on my blog to begin with. If you did purchase it, go get your money back. Instead, use the money to buy "Easy" by Tammara Webber and Jamie McGuire's "Beautiful Disaster."

What's Next for Colleen Hoover?!

This is from COLLEEN HOOVER'S website! I thought I'd share it with you! I just saw it and I know many of you are big fans of Colleen Hoover, just like I am! So if you were curious about what this talented author is working on, here is your answer!

"...I’ve been getting a lot of questions regarding the next two books I have coming out, so here’s some info on those again.

THIS GIRL (Tentatively titled) will be released in ebook at the end of April.  It’s a companion novel to Slammed, from Will’s point of view.  I’ve included scenes from SLAMMED that readers wanted to hear his point of view on, and also some modern-day stuff with Will and Lake.  It’s a nice wrap-up to the series and I’m so excited to finally have that available to readers.  Y’all have been very patient.

LOSING HOPE is a companion novel to HOPELESS, told from Holder’s pov.  Readers had a lot of questions about his background and what he was thinking during particular scenes in HOPELESS, so we’ll get those answers when the ebook releases in July.

And don’t forget that the ATRIA paperback of Hopeless will be in stores May 7th.  You can pre-order it here and have it delivered that day to your doorstep."

I pre-ordered Hopeless! I cannot wait to see her in Boston on March 16th! Finally something excited involving books and great authors will be close to home! I am sooo anxious to get there, the time is moving way to slowly! I cannot wait to read these companions novels to some of my all time favorite books! Colleen Hoover is sooo talented, I could read her books many times. I hope you enjoyed learning this bit of information, and remember I quoted this completely from Ms. Hoover's website, right here. Click that link there if you want to check out the entire post or to follow her site. She has hilarious posts, and is an amazing woman! I cannot wait to meet her and get her autograph! I plan on taking pictures and tweeting throughout the event, so stay tuned for that. Remember, March 16th. My twitter handle is @briannasreviews and my Facebook (they are linked together) is Brianna Lee Reviews (to add me as a friend) or like me page at Brianna Lee Book Reviews.

Synopsis:

Torn between the past she can't remember and a future she isn’t ready for, Claudia feels at a loss. With unanswered questions, she is certain there is more to her past than just being a venator. Finding the missing pieces in her life won’t be easy because duty calls. When mysterious dark shadows get released, an apocalypse sets in motion.

Check out the first two books in Mary Ting's "Crossroads Saga"

"Crossroads (Book 1)" by Mary Ting

"Between (Crossroads, Book 2)" by Mary Ting

....AND...

Check out a new Paranormal Romance novel, "My Familiar Stranger (The Order of the Black Swan, Book 1)" by Victoria Danann

Synopsis and Info (from Amazon):

A secret society, hot guys, and vampires come together where fate intersects romance for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure proving that true love can find you in the strangest places, even far, far from home. Minutes ahead of inevitable assassination, Elora Laiken is forcibly transported to an alternate dimension similar, but not identical, to her own. She is stranded. Alone. Far from home. A stranger in a "strangish" land. Of course a girl could suffer worse problems than having gorgeous suitors. Perhaps more importantly, in the midst of an epidemic of vampire related abductions, can she stay alive long enough to choose between an honor debt, true love, or the breathlessness of single-minded passion?

My Familiar Stranger is a full length, stand alone, Paranormal/Fantasy Romance novel that also sets up the foundation for the Black Swan series. It is loved by fans of paranormal romance, fantasy romance, and urban fantasy.

Erotica quotient: 18+. Some steamy scenes. No menage. No BDSM.

...Still More...

"Luca's Magic Embrace" by Kim Grosso is due to be released in Fall of 2012!

Luca's Magic Embrace is an erotic paranormal romance, which promises love and intrigue in the heart of New Orleans.

Sexy vampire, Luca Macquarie doesn't do love; especially not with humans. Yet, ever since he rescued Samantha Irving, he can't deny the enigmatic attraction he's developed for the alluring mortal woman. Concerned for her safety, he's determined to bring Samantha back to her coven. His mission is to go find the novice witch and bring her home, nothing more, nothing less; falling for her is not supposed to be part of the plan.

Samantha doesn't want to be a witch, yet that's exactly what she is. After failing to elicit her magic, she escapes to the Pocono Mountains in an attempt to resume a semblance of her previous human life. When an arsonist torches her cabin, Samantha's worst fears are realized. Aware that her life is on the line, she reluctantly agrees to return to New Orleans with Luca.

In the Big Easy, Samantha and Luca embark on a spellbinding journey, searching for a mystical amulet that promises to release her obligation from an ancient, lethal vampire who's been threatening her life. With cryptic clues and clandestine allies, will Luca and Samantha destroy the dangerous amulet before others acquire it, setting forth a chain of catastrophic consequences? And will Luca give into his erotic desire for the witch who magically captures heart?

Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 Trailer

I cannot wait until "Breaking Dawn Pt. 2" comes out in theaters! I always loved the "Twilight" books and movies. The Twilight Saga books are what got me back into reading. When I finished that series, I was off and running trying to read every single paranormal and urban fantasy book I could get my hands on. And I'm doing a pretty good job because I have read a ton! But, there are still a ton out there that I can't wait to read. Any good book suggestions? So anyways, just in case you haven't seen the Official trailer for "Breaking Dawn Pt. 2"...here it is! It looks so good! This fourth book of the saga was definitely my favorite! Enjoy the clip and in November we can talk about the actual movie! Soo exciting!!
