Book Blurb:When the human and the vampire worlds collide, there will be hell to pay.

Luca Ambrus is a rare breed: vampire from birth, begotten by vampire parents, blood born. He is also an agent of the Council—the centuries-old cabal that governs vampirekind, preserving their secrecy and destroying those who betray them.

When a cryptic summons leads him to the scene of the brutal killing of a powerful Council member, Luca begins the hunt for an assassin among his own people. But instead of a lone killer he discovers a sinister conspiracy of rogue vampires bent on subjugating the mortal world.

Interview: Kristina McBride author of Tension of Opposites

We here at Book Lovers Inc. are so happy to welcome Kristina McBride author of Tension of Opposites, which officially hit the shelves last month! (I enjoyed it very much, you can read my review tomorrow on Book Crazy!)The YA Lover: First off Kristina, would you mind telling us a bit about yourself and how you got into writing? KM: I lived across the street from a library when I was a young child and have always had a voracious appetite for books and words. When I was in high school, I began journaling obsessively – everything from song lyrics to poems to short stories. It wasn’t until I finished my Masters Degree and quit my job teaching high school English that I dove headfirst into writing my first novel. (I know the order of things doesn’t make sense, but …

Book Blurb

Sandra “Dee” Daniels is a vampire’s worst nightmare. Sure, she couldn’t get up to five-six in the highest heels money can buy—not that she ever wears heels. But the monsters in her past and the stake in her boot are enough to keep most bloodsuckers interested in staying undead out of Baton Rouge.

But there are changes afoot on her turf. Rumors of a Born Master in town—a vampire so powerful he can make the streets run with blood. And a new face in Dee’s dive bars and alleyways—Simon Chase, a strong, sexy shadow with a haunted past of his own. Simon knows a lot about the dark side of Dee’s work. He knows even more …

Interview: Author Jocelynn Drake + Giveaway!

Today we are very happy to welcome Jocelynn Drake, author of the Dark Days series on Book Lovers,Inc. Her new book Pray for Dawn will be released next week and Wait for Dusk only a month later! Let’s give Jocelynn a warm welcome!

The HEA Lover*: Jocelynn, can you please tell us a bit about yourself?

Jocelynn: Is there more to life than writing? For me, the answer would have to be “not much.” A Cincinnati, Ohio native, I started writing stories at the age of twelve and have never looked back from those early days of retelling the tale of Robin Hood so that it included a kick-ass heroine that could keep up with the rest of the boys. Over the years, I have jumped from genre to genre, finding new ways …

Review: The Boat by Nam Le

Format Read: PaperbackNumber of Pages: 271Release Date: 16 March 2010Publisher: VintageFormats Available: PaperbackPurchasing Info: Nam Le’s Website, The Book Depository, Good ReadsBook Blurb: A stunningly inventive, deeply moving fiction debut: stories that take us from the slums of Colombia to the streets of Tehran; from New York City to Iowa City; from a tiny fishing village in Australia to a foundering vessel in the South China Sea, in a masterly display of literary virtuosity and feeling.

In the magnificent opening story, “Love and Honor and Pity and Pride and Compassion and Sacrifice,” a young writer is urged by his friends to mine his father’s experiences in Vietnam — and what seems at first a satire of turning one’s life into literary commerce becomes a transcendent exploration of homeland, and the ties between father and son. “Cartagena” provides a …

Bookish Eye Candy: Vishous – Lover Unbound

Lover Unbound
by 
J.R. Ward 

The ruthless and brilliant brother Vishous possesses a destructive curse and a frightening ability to see the future. As a member of the Brotherhood, he has no interest in love or emotion, only the battle with the Lessening Society. But when a mortal injury puts him in the care of a human surgeon, Dr. Jane Whitcomb compels him to reveal his inner pain and taste true pleasure for the first time-until a destiny he didn’t choose takes him into a future that does not include her…
