Archangel's Legion Paperback Pre-Order Discounted

North American folks - looks like Amazon has discounted the pre-order for the paperback of "Archangel's Legion" to $4.79 today. (I'm sorry digital folks. I wish that edition was discounted too, but alas I cannot control Amazon).

August Newsletter Now Out

The August newsletter is currently going out. It can take up to an hour to get to everyone, so please be patient. If you don't have it within the next two hours, check your spam/junk folder, then drop Ashwini a line and she'll make sure you get a copy (naliniDOTassistantATgmailDOTcom).

Enjoy! :-)

Website Maintenance

Happy weekend everyone! We're doing some major website maintenance this weekend, so the site (www.nalinisingh.com)  will be offline at times. Don't panic! It'll all be back once we're finished. :-)

Friday Book Club & Linkage

The Friday Book Club is now open! What are you reading and loving lately? I'm in a science fiction mood so I'm on the lookout for new sf reads. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

Also, I have two links for you to bookmark for the month of August - both featuring amazing giveaways. (For international folks, just check the rules for each day - some giveaways are open internationally, others not. Mine will be :-))

Read-A-Romance Month website - this will feature posts and giveaways by tons of authors (including me), throughout August, so make sure you check in every day. http://www.readaromancemonth.com/

Same goes for www.dearauthor.com - which is holding a giveaway extravaganza!

Now, onto the books you're reading!

August Newsletter

A heads-up that the August newsletter will be going out Tuesday August 6th (that's US time, so for Southern hemisphere folks, it'll be August 7th).

The newsletter will include an excerpt from Archangel's Legion. 

If you're not a subscriber, you can subscribe by filling in your email address on the form on the top right of the front page of the website. The same form is also on the blog sidebar. 

Once you sign up, you'll have to click on the link sent to your email to confirm your subscription. You'll then automatically get a Welcome newsletter with two free short stories (Poker Night and Knives and Sheaths).

If you'd like the August newsletter, please join up before it goes out.


Any problems, drop Ashwini a line (naliniDOTassistantATgmailDOTcom).

Book Recommendations

While I was on book tour, I was asked to post more about what I'm reading and would recommend, so here I go!

First, a link to the Dear Author's (international) giveaway of Meljean Brook's Guardians backlist. The seventh and final book in the series, Guardian Demon is out in August, so if you're looking for a series that is complete, this is a fantastic one!

Meljean even as a "Story So Far" primer if you want to dive straight into the awesome final book,  but I'd recommend reading the whole series - why miss out?! My favorite in the series is probably Demon Moon, but I've loved the entire series. (If you click on Meljean's name in the tags at the bottom of this post, you can see my posts about her series over the years).

The second recommendation is for Jessica Clare's Beauty and the Billionaire . I had to get this as soon as I heard the words "virgin billionaire hero". *grin* There's also a beauty and the beast theme, with the hero having scars that have caused him to withdraw from life, but our beauty is a pajama wearing ghost writer who isn't afraid to go after the man she wants.

It's a fun, sexy story that I inhaled in one sitting and one that left me with a smile on my face. And, it's only $2.99, which is a steal.

Hope you enjoy these books if you decide to try them! And if you've already read them, please share your thoughts. :-)
