Yes someone else said B&N has a soft release date so you can order it now. I entered a contest at the author's site so I'm waiting until they choose the winners tomorrow.

I ordered it. It seems like it will go through!
I wonder if this means it's out on display. I might have to go look tomorrow.
I went to the B&N site after reading this earlier today and I got notice that they have shipped out the book to me today.
I thought it was Curran in the second snippet I mean who else would she allow in the tub with her?

I have my fingers crossed for you Nichole!!!!

Ahh I want it. I'm going to go look today and if it's not there. I might ask them to look in the back LOL. I will hunt it down. I hate ordering online because then you get charged the shipping which is stupid when I have 3 BN's within 10 min of me.
But for this book I might just do it :)

If you have their card you don't get charged for shipping any longer no matter the amount. They used to have a $10 minimum, but no it is nothing with their card. For me it is worth the $25 yearly charge now.

Absolutely!!! I have been a member since The Harlequin came out because members get like a 40% discount on hardcover bestsellers. With as many books as I buy that makes it totally worth it, now that they have free shipping I hardly ever go to the actual store anymore unless I'm at the mall for some other reason.
Books A Million has it in stock. I called and they just got it in. I'm heading over today to pick it up! B&N online has it in stock and is shipping out today, however my local store didn't have it yet.
I cancelled my order w/Amazon b/c they were still listing a June 1 delivery date!
Oh, I forgot to mention...did you see this new excerpt? It's a new one!http://us.penguingroup.com/nf/Book/Bo...
I read it yesterday Shannon and it's outstanding! My B&N order shipped today, and I will wait (im)patiently for it to make its way through military mail to me in the UK. (So jealous that you're getting a copy today!) I have to know how this rejection misunderstanding all came to be!
what to do order the book now or wait?? Ilona will get credit with higher sales if I wait but I want to read it now decision decision decision....

HAHAHAHA right!
Dawn wrote: "what to do order the book now or wait?? Ilona will get credit with higher sales if I wait but I want to read it now decision decision decision...."I know.. I don't know what to do. I don't have my membership anymore since I haven't had a job. I think I will just tough it out and wait. I went to B&N and it isn't out yet. I checked in their comps and the book is listed as Out of Stock in all the stores. ::sigh::
I think I will wait, and just stay away from any threads until I get it. I will die if I read a spoiler lol.

Isn't this the book that they either get together or they don't. If they don't, I may cry. lol

yes....this is the book.....when I was looking or info on the book at the Ilona's site I found this
http://www.ilona-andrews.com/2009/11/...
There are no spoilers just info on the story line....
You know, I was over at Ilona's site today and Gordon had put up a post stating that they knew that B&N were shipping their book out early, and that was fine with them because they already made the NYT list. How cool is that? Normally most authors beg you not to purchase until release day. The only thing they ask is no spoilers or pirating.
They really are very awesome you know! For me it just encourages me to read their books.
Absolutely, they are very down to earth.
I have it in my hot little hands!! WHEEEEEE!
OMG-Flooze, Do you really? Where did you get it from? I think I may die from jealousy-LOL
B&N! Ordered last night, they delivered today! I foresee a lack of sleep.

The Flooze (Michelle M.) wrote: "B&N! Ordered last night, they delivered today! I foresee a lack of sleep."That is super fast delivery. You must be near the warehouse. It usually takes me 3-4 days to get stuff.
I'm still doing my little dance of joy as I make my tea and get ready to read!
Wow I cannot believe you got it so fast!!
Thanks for the bn tip ladies. I've been on edge waiting for this release. I ordered my book from bn just now. Can't wait!!
I will be compulsively checking the BN website to see when it becomes available and in stock in the stores. Hopefully soon!
Loving it so far. :)Hope everyone has luck getting their hands on it!
keeping my fingers crossed that mine arrives tomorrow so I don't have to wait until Monday
I just checked the tracking on the book shipment and it is not going to arrive today ;-( It will arrive on the 18th....still a week ahead of schedule but I wish it was arriving today....
I am so jealous! I ordered mine from Amazon and it isn't being shipped until June! I might have to cancel it and go to B&N, I want it NOW!
I think there are some issues with Amazon and the publisher for the Kate Daniels books. I would definetly order from somewhere else and get it faster.
I WAS TRICKED!!! I went online this morning and checked the B&N website, and it said there were copies of Magic Bleeds available. woo hoo. I drove there, only to find out there was only 1 copy currently in the store and it was on hold for some other biatch and not me! lol. So I had to put one on order.How disappointing. I might have to console myself with a re-read of the entire series today.

But I didn't want to be banned from B&N for the rest of my life so I just left. She said she thinks the next order will come tomorrow or Tues. Ahh.
But now I seriously don't want to read anything else. I've tried to pick up Kisscut at least 2 or 3 times and my mind wanders to Curran and Kate. sigh.
I would say then a re-read is in order. lol
Darcy wrote: "I would say then a re-read is in order. lol"I know, but I'll be so sad once I'm all the way through, and there's no fourth book to pick up! :(
My dad got mad at me because I came home, as he puts it "grumpy". And told me that it's JUST a book and not the end of the world.
HA. Shows how much he knows.
Definitely calls for a reread - you want the dinner promise fresh in your mind anyway. =)

Those non-readers just don't get the addiction. :)
Lol clearly he doesn't know the seriousness of the situation. I have to wait until June to get mine : (

How much longer must I stalk the bookstore??
@Suzanne I am so sorry!
Is it Tues yet???? I really want to start reading Magic Bleeds........it should be here tomorrow afternoon....
