About this author

Rachel’s writing career began at the impressionable age of twelve with a poem dedicated to the soldiers of Desert Storm. A dark macabre affair that earned her a publication in an anthology and many raised eyebrows from family and friends, she hid her poetry and artistic style for years…

Tucked away in the heart of Central Texas, with the loving support of her husband and three children, she dusted the cobwebs from her craft. Returning to those twisted regions of her mind, she creates romance that devastates...because that's the only true way to love.

To learn where love twists the soul and lights the shadows, visit Rachel at http://www.rachelfirasek.com/

Rachel Firasek I'm on Bitten By Books today!!! Please come and find out all about me, read my awesome review, and take a chance for a $50 GC to Amazon!!! http://www.bittenbybooks.com/author-l...


Rachel Firasek RSVP HERE NOW:
http://www.bittenbybooks.com/?p=40624

Join us on 4/19 with author Rachel Firasek for an Release Party, chat and contest. This event starts at 12:00 pm Central and runs into the evening. For those visiting from outside of the US, here is the time conversion link. We are in the Chicago time zone: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

Rachel will also be talking about her new book Piper’s Fury

“It’s an empath thing... Using your “powers” to help the Dark Hills Police Department hunt down serial killers doesn’t leave much time for dating. Not that Piper Anast is complaining. The last thing she needs is some guy brushing up against her and pumping his pornographic thoughts into her head. When she meets Bennett Slade, a sexy, tormented vampire, Piper stumbles headlong into a telepathic connection with his missing daughter. She can’t leave the kid to the evil surrounding her unwanted visions, nor can she resist her draw to Slade. He’s the first guy she’s been able to touch vision-free in, well, forever. As she and Slade close in on the evil creature holding his daughter, Piper’s powers morph into a deadly fury. To save Slade’s daughter-and herself-Piper must face down demons she never knew she had and trust the one thing she keeps from everyone. Her heart.”

CONTEST INFO: The contest portion of the event runs until 11:59 pm Central on 4/20/11 and is open to readers WORLDWIDE.
Prize: A $50.00 Electronic Amazon Gift Card.

Check out Rachel Firasek’s website and get your questions ready for the event.
