Welcome to the 12th 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.
Today you will have the chance to win a copy of one of my favorite contemporary reads for this year that is none other than A Lot Like Love by Julie James. Needless to say, that as soon as I got in my hands my first book by Julie James, she immediately became one of my favorite contemporary romance authors! She’s plainly that amazing an author! And especially her FBI series is drool worthy! The way Julie combines the romantic element with the suspense in her stories make them even more appealing and the fact that we are talking about FBI agents that are staring in her series, that in my book makes her stories a must read! What can …

The International Giveaways Café (24)
Welcome back to our Saturday morning get-together, where we have the chance to discuss book giveaways, link up our own giveaways, and enter all the others.
If you’re anything like me, book buying is a thing of dreams through the holidays. Thankfully, there’s lots of great giveaways running out there (including our Advent Calendars, which are awesome!), so there’s still chances to win the books that may not be in the budget.
My Saturday includes Christmas shopping (which I’ve just started); how about all of you lovely readers out there? Are you madly shopping over these last two weeks. Or have you done all the shopping, and now get to sit back with the egg nog, listening to carols and wrapping? (If so, can you stop by my place to help me wrap?! 😉 )

Interview: Nicola Marsh + Giveaway!
Nicola Marsh
It’s our great pleasure to welcome Nicola Marsh to BLI today! Nicola is here for the latest stop in her Entangled Publishing Blog Tour to celebrate the release of her latest novel Busted in Bollywood, which was published on December 6, 2011.
A contemporary romance, Busted in Bollywood is receiving rave reviews and is about heroine Shari Jones who is a single, homeless and jobless, Indo-American. Shari agrees to her best friend’s whacky scheme: travel to Mumbai, pose as Amrita, ditch the fiancé her traditional Indian parents have chosen. Simple. Until she’s mistaken for a famous Bollywood actress, stalked by a Lone Ranger wannabe, courted by an English lord and busted by the blackmailing fiancé.
Oh Ho! Doesn’t Busted in Bollywood sound fun and unique?
Lea: Nicola! Welcome to Book Lovers! Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedule to join us here …

Elements in Lit 201: Rank and File
If you’re anything like me, when reading historicals, there’s always a time when I have to run off to my reference books to check out one detail or other for historic truth. There’s another thing I’ve noticed when reading these types of romance novels, and it needs constant clarification (at least for me): What the heck do all these ranks mean? You read about the roguish Baron, the wicked Marquess, the daring Lord, but authors tend to insert snippets about how these characters are ranked in relation to others. ‘He shouldn’t be saying that to so and so, he’s of a higher rank’ kind of deal.
I thought it would be neat to take a look at how the British nobility are ranked and what it all means (I chose British because of the frequency of the Regency Romance, etc. and its ties to Britain. Other countries may be …

Fortune or Free Will?
This has been a question humans have been struggling with since…well, since we developed the capacity to think beyond basic survival. Who hasn’t wondered whether or not the choices we make actually influence our lives, or if, somewhere, our destiny is already written?
In some ways, it’s comforting to think that our fates were decided the moment we were born (or even earlier). It takes away the burden of regret. If something was meant to happen, or it …

Today you will have the chance to win Something Secret This Way Comes, Book #1 in the Secret McQueen new urban fantasy series by Sierra Dean.
