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.

An advanced of copy of Black Heart Loa! YES! YES! YES! I loved Black Dust Mambo! I really wish I could have seen the wet boxers contest in real life but instead I let my imagination run wild.
I am looking forward to a lot of different things this summer, Pirates for sure, but also Haven, Eureka and Tru Blood and the very last Harry Potter! It is gonna be a fun filled summer!
I also tweeted this cause I think everyone should have a chance at this even if I selfishly want to win it! 🙂
I’m really looking forward to True Blood starting back up in June!

Looking forward to the new Pirates movie and the new Harry Potter
Also looking forward to the final Jaz Parks book and the next Night Huntress book
I am so looking forward to Season 4 of True Blood. Hoping it is somewhat based off of book 4 of the books. It was after all Eric’s book and the best!
I am awaiting Nalini Singh’s Kiss of Snow. Love the series. Also Black Heart Loa, so I can read the series.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Adrian <3
ok movies would be, Pirates of the Carribean, Transformers 3 (on my bday, wahoo), Harry Potter and Breaking Dawn (in Nov, but I'm still excited).

As for a movie I am looking forward to? There are several. These next two months alone are a comic book readers dream (even if I don’t read comics any longer). But probably I would have to say Conan. The original really was a staple of 80’s action films, so I can’t wait to see how that translates into this new one.
I am waiting patiently for season four of True Blood. Amnesiac Eric is something to look forward to, oh yes, he is!
