Do you have Palmer's A Blood Seduction as ePub? Can you send it to me if you do. I've been looking for it in that format for months, and no one seems to have it. gargoyle1011@yahoo.com
Thank You.

[Valerie ~ Val Hall ~]

Missyb, I borrowed the parperback. I did not buy it because I was not sure that I would like it, it's different from her feral Warrior series. Last I heard, only US resident could share ebooks and I'm not. As that changed yet? The ebook lending feature I mean.

Hmmm, don't know. Not that up-to-date on this sharing thing myself. I'll keep checking SS. Thank you anyhow. What'd you think of it? I liked the Feral Warriors series, which is why I wanted to try this book.

No worries Cathy, you've been too busy reading ;)

[Valerie ~ Val Hall ~]

Question Sandra, I was reading Dark Descendant where the heroine is a descendant of Artemis. The is a descendant of Zeus somewhere too. would this qualify for bonus Olympic flame? If not, that's ok since I can use it for something else.

Yep, that's close enough Val ;)

I'll be interested to see what you think of 'Anathema', I'm guessing you got it free as well? It seems quite intriguing. "

Sorry Josie, I changed my mind on the black cover. I read too many YA books lately and could not bring myself to read Anathema even if it is a good story. Next time I guess.
