Guest Post: Dealing with the Devil by Misty Evans + Giveaway
Please welcome to BLI the fabulous and prolific Misty Evans. She stops by today to talk about some of her life experiences and their influence on her writing. Like the gifted writer that she is, she can find inspiration in just about anything; even the biblical stories she grew up on. And in her written works, good and evil can be all relative!
I was raised in a Southern Baptist household and cut my teeth on Old Testament stories full of the Devil and damnation. Having an active imagination and a strong desire to find good in everyone, I was particularly taken by the story about Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden. To me, it was a love story, maybe the greatest ever told. Adam gave up heaven on Earth to be with Eve after she ate from the apple. He could …

Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder
Laying hands upon the injured and dying, Avry of Kazan absorbs their wounds and diseases into herself. But rather than being honored for her skills, she is hunted. Healers like Avry are accused of spreading the plague that has decimated the Fifteen Realms, leaving the survivors in a state of chaos.
Stressed and tired from hiding, Avry is abducted by a band of rogues who, shockingly, value her gift above the golden bounty offered for her capture. Their leader, an enigmatic captor-protector with powers of his own, is unequivocal in his demands: Avry must heal a plague-stricken prince—leader of a campaign against her people. As they traverse the daunting Nine Mountains, beset by mercenaries and magical dangers, Avry must decide who is worth healing and what is worth dying for. Because the price of peace may well be her …

Guest Post: Embracing the Holiday Spirit Year-Round by Amanda Bonilla + Giveaway
Today at BLI, we’re very pleased to be welcoming author Amanda Bonilla! She shares with us some of the traditions and tendencies that crop up around Christmas, noting a a few great pieces of advice for one and all to consider when it comes to generosity. For our parts, we couldn’t agree more! Stay tuned after the post for a readerly treat from Amanda.
First of all, I’d like to thank BLI for hosting me today! You guys are great! ☺
Since the time my kids were little, I’ve told them, “You don’t have to like everyone. But you do have to treat everyone with kindness and compassion.”
During the holidays, everyone adopts a “Goodwill toward your fellow man” attitude. And while this is wonderful, I believe that we should practice this philosophy year-round, rather than one month out of the year. And so, …

Today you will have the chance to win Bloodthirsty by Flynn Meaney!
Now, if you want something completely different from the traditional vampire book…this is it! Bloodthirsty is: 1: From a guys perspective 2: Doesn’t have real vampires in it and 3: pokes fun at how crazy the world has gotten over vampires in general!

Advent Calendar Day 17: Aftertime by Sophie Littlefield + Giveaway
Welcome to the 17th day of Book Lovers Inc Advent Calendar. Each day, we will offer you one great read in a giveaway on all 24 days till Christmas.
Usually, I like to read books that will be fun and dashing and all things sweet. But I’m also a sucker for a good ‘n creepy dystopian tale, the farthest thing from hearts and stars. And author Sophie Littlefield had knocked me out with her (intense!!!) book Aftertime, which was released by Harlequin Luna in February 2011. The book is set in California after a majorly catastrophic event has wiped out society as we know it, leaving behind disenchanted human survivors and a whole lot of flesh eating zombies (called “Beaters”). That’s right, I said the Z word, which seems to be all over the place these days. But what sets this story apart from many of its type …
