Guest post by Nadia Lee + Giveaway
Hey Folks, today Nadia Lee is back to tell you about another one of her fairy tale retellings: the steamy Cinderella story of hers titled Ashwyn!

Leave a comment and you will be entered to win an ebook copy of Ashwyn: Cinderella Retold with an Erotic Twist by Nadia Lee!
What the Cursed Ashwyn is Thankful for
In America, people celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November. Though I don’t do the giant turkey thing due to the fact that I live in Japan, I still think about the holiday as an American.
So I thought I’d do something a little bit different. Instead of talking about what I’m thankful for (it’s the same every year 🙂 ) I decided to ask Ashwyn, the cursed heroine from …

Guest post by Grace Burrowes + Giveaway
Today we are pleased to bring you the wonderful Grace Burrowes who is the author of such beloved historical romance series as the Windham series and the Lonely Lord series.

So read on and you could even win yourself a copy!
The Basis for My New Series
I embarked upon a Scottish Victorian trilogy with some trepidation. While I’ve been reading Regencies since… well, for decades, there simply haven’t been Scottish Victorian romances thick on the ground, and my confidence with the time period was not as great.
Jennifer Ashley’s MacKenzie Brothers series was my first temptation to write in the Victorian era. Her novels are set in the 1880s and later, and start …

Christmas is the perfect time for Firefighter Ronan O’Rourke to take things to the next level with his sexually adventurous girlfriend. He knows she has feelings for him—and he’s sure of his feelings for her—but when Thea refuses his invitation to sample Christmas in New York City because what they share is nothing more than sheet-burning sex, Ronan sets out to change her mind.
Deep down Thea Moretti knows she cares for Ronan, but she can’t move past her grief over her late husband. Loud music and sex with Ronan are the only things she’s got that her feel alive, so she takes as much of both as she can get. …

Guest Post Anne Calhoun + Giveaway!
We are thrilled to welcome author Anne Calhoun to BLI today. Anne is an award winning multi-published author who is here to celebrate the release of her novella Breath on Embers which releases from Carina Press today. Breath on Embers is an extraordinary story about a woman who feels empty in the wake of the loss of her husband and the special guy who is able to stoke and ignite the tiny ember of light still burning inside her. Breath on Embers left me ‘breathless’ and my full review of Anne’s story will post later today at BLI.
About Anne:
After doing time at Fortune 500 companies on both coasts, Anne landed in a flyover state, where she traded business casual for yoga pants and decided to write down all the lively story ideas that got her through years …
Sunday Cravings
Hello my fellow Book Lovers! How have you been?

Yeah, you get it right, nothing can hold me away from you for long 🙂
So, let’s start!
Stella: Ask Her at Christmas by Christi Barth
Caitlin McIntyre’s heart stops when her best friend drops to one knee and proposes. Kyle Lockhart never once hinted over the years that he has any idea she’s in love with him. Not wanting to jeopardize their friendship, she’s never let it slip. Good thing, too, since it turns out he’s only practicing—he’s about to propose to someone else.
A business merger might not be the most romantic reason …

The Pie-tastic Winner Post!
Hey Everyone!
Since I don’t have anything interesting to tell you about my weekend (had to work on Saturday and so the weekend was painfully short for me 🙁 ), I’ll tell you about last weekend, when I was playing the role of Martha Stewart in the kitchen and turned it into a Pie Factory 😀 Namely I have been wanting to try out what a pumpkin pie tastes like (living outside the US I have never eaten it), so besides a beautifully scented pumpkin pie (it smelled like Christmas in my kitchen due to the cinnamon nutmeg and ginger combo) I also prepared a traditional apple pie. Both had tremendous success with the family as they didn’t survive the serving 😉 So now my enthusiasm for pies has morphed into obsession: I want a beautifully polka dotted pie pan and would give anything for a pie chain (which to this day …
