Midwinter’s Eve Giveaway Hop
Welcome to the Midwinter’s Eve Giveaway Hop! Since it’s the eve of my book birthday for Every Kiss, the prequel in the new series Music, Love and Other Miseries, and since the story revolves around a bet on who will or won’t be kissing beneath the mistletoe, I thought I’d share a few fun facts on mistletoe. But don’t forget to enter the Rafflecopter giveaway below, where an ebook of Every Kiss and a $10 Amazon gift card are up for grabs!
Mistletoe Fun Fact Number 1:
Druids believed mistletoe held magical properties, and if it fell to the ground while being cut (with a golden sickle, nonetheless) on the summer or winter solstice, it lost all it’s powers.
Mistletoe Fun Fact Number 2:
Did you know in Norse mythology Loki killed the Sun God with mistletoe?
Mistletoe Fun Fact Number 3:
In ye olden Saxon times, a man could demand kisses from any woman who passed beneath a mistletoe bough, and he would pluck a berry with each kiss. No more berries, no more kisses! And denial from a lady beneath the mistletoe risks dying unmarried.
But in Every Kiss, Gia is more than willing to risk such a scandalous fate, no matter how tempting (or not tempting) her competitor Ian may be.

In HAVEN & DESTINY, San Francisco nightclub owner Carina Tranquilli finds love and fights her vampire family’s enemies. Now, in ORIGINS…
En route to reunite with her estranged father in Italy, Carina is kidnapped by a human organization intent on vampire genocide. Beaten, starved, and forced to fight fellow captives, she finally manages to escape. Along the way, she encounters the group’s leaders—their identities shock her to the core.
Once home, Carina warns her family of this new threat, but dear old dad is missing. In his absence, the Tribunal, the governing body for all vampirekind, lies in disarray, with an old enemy making a bid for her father’s throne. What’s worse? The usurper wants her for his queen…and slave.
With a human-vampire war looming on one side and a vampire-vampire battle brewing on the other, Carina will have to rally her troops, take back the throne, and fulfill her destiny as the Chosen One. If not, her whole world will fall, taking everyone she loves with it.

Capture by Sandra Carmel
Happy Friday, people! I’m psyched to share a new paranormal romance release by Sandra Carmel. Capture is the first book in The Cure trilogy. Check it out – your new vampire book boyfriend awaits you…
When an ethics-bound geneticist discovers an evil plot to wipe the vampire gene from existence, will he expose the generations-old atrocity and risk losing the love of his life?
Erasing the past is the only way to survive the future…
It’s beyond love at first sight the day geneticist Richard Hall spots secretary Eva Fjelstad. They have so much in common—a love of rare steak, red wine and music, and they work for the renowned, yet enigmatic research corporation Sub Rosa.
The beauty of being a bright young geneticist is that Richard has access to cutting-edge technology, including a newly developed soulmate serum. A sip of the serum and a brush of hands confirm Richard and Eva are destined to be together.
But there’s a problem.
Sub Rosa in the swinging sixties isn’t as peace-loving as it seems, and when Richard uncovers corruption at the very core of the company—a secret that goes to the heart of his parents’ disappearance—he’s faced with a decision no man wants to make.
For generations, the Jade and Violet vampire clans have roamed the world, posing little threat to the blissfully ignorant human population. However, it’s Richard who unearths Sub Rosa’s genocidal scheme to eradicate the vampire species from existence.
Should Richard stay true to his moral compass and risk his relationship with Eva to expose the agency’s deep-seated cruelty and deception? Or does he toe the company line, let vampires vanish from the world and keep his soulmate safe, secure and by his side forever?
Sandra Carmel is an Australian-based author of engaging, thought-provoking romance novels, novellas, short stories and poetry, who writes for the pleasure of stimulating herself and others with words. An obsession with classic romance novels, particularly Jane Eyre, combined with marrying her own Mr Rochester were key motivators in commencing her romance writing journey. So far, she has taken the scenic route from contemporary to paranormal to erotic, creating provocative stories that delve beneath the surface of desire. She reads and writes a lot, frequently disrupted by her ever-attentive, cheeky cats, and sinfully amorous husband.
