Dark Faerie Tales Interview & Giveaway

Dark Faerie Tales Interview & Giveaway

The Black Heart Loa release madness continues! LOL. I always enjoy hanging out at Dark Faerie Tales, so when I was invited back, I jumped at the chance to get another giveaway going.

(It also gave me a break from trying to unravel the myriad evil plots that my cats have hatched against my computer in their never-ending quest to murder the thing that takes so much of Mom’s attention.)

The giveaway is open to international and runs through July 13th. Prizes include two signed sets of Hoodoo books: Black Dust Mambo and Black Heart Loa, and two signed copies of any of my titles–winner’s choice.

So swing by, say hey, and enter to win!

Win a Copy of BLACK HEART LOA

Win a Copy of BLACK HEART LOA

To celebrate the upcoming June 28th release of Black Heart Loa, the second book in the adventures of fiery hoodoo apprentice Kallie Riviere, I’m going to giveaway one signed copy a day beginning on June 21st and up to and including release day June 28th! (Open to international.)

All you need to do to enter (and you only need to enter once to be eligible for each day’s drawing) is post a comment letting me know which urban fantasy male protagonist (from any series) you think is hottest!

Post about the contest on Twitter, Facebook, Goodreads, or MySpace and link to it and you get two more entries for each site. Just let me know. 😉

“Edge of you seat thrilling and cold shower hot! Black Heart Loa is a mind-blowing read you shouldn’t miss!”–Heather Lobdell, Fresh Fiction.com

“Kallie and her friends must learn the true meaning of friendship in this Black Dust mambo sequel, as events push each of them to the limit in order to survive. Phoenix has done it again. This is a nice blend of magic, mystery, and humor!” 4-star review Lauren Becker, RT Book Reviews

Black Heart Loa Galley Contest

Black Heart Loa Galley Contest

To celebrate the new look of my site, what better than a contest? For those of you who don’t know, a book galley is a paper bound version of the book (without the regular cover) that goes out to reviewers–an uncorrected ARC (advance review copy).

So if you can’t wait to see what Kallie, Layne, Belladonna, and Dallas have been doing since you last saw them in Black Dust Mambo, now is your chance to get a jump on the books June 28th release. Even if you haven’t read Black Dust Mambo, you should be able to enjoy Black Heart Loa without reading BDM first.

To enter, post a comment about the movie or book or TV show premiere you’re looking forward to this summer.

For extra entries, post a link to this contest on Twitter, Facebook, and/or Goodreads. 2 extra entries for each place you post the contest link. I plan to give 5 signed copies away over the next five weeks. You only need to enter once to be in each of the drawings.
