To Katie With Love by Erica Lucke Dean (Guest Post/Giveaway)

Please give a warm welcome to author, Erica Lucke Dean!


When I was asked to write a guest post for Reading Between the Wines to promote my new book, To Katie With Love, I decided I’d better start by doing a little research. And how does one research writing a blog that celebrates wine without first having a glass…or two? Of course, those who know me well know I’m not exactly a skilled drinker. I’m the girl who gets tipsy on half a wine cooler, then drunk-dials her ex-husband or her husband’s ex-wife to tell them exactly what they can…well, let’s not go there. But as I started to feel the warm and cozy effects of my cabernet blend, skillfully chosen by my wine snob husband, I began to put myself into the shoes of my main character, Katie, to analyze her thoughts on love, sex, and having too much to drink.

Katie James is so much like me, and yet so far removed. On one hand, she has all of my clumsy tendencies. She trips over air, walks into walls, and falls—both literally and figuratively—far too easily.  Then poor Katie has this social naiveté that I was lucky enough to shed somewhere in my past yet still feel the effects of when I’m in public.  And like me, Katie can’t hold her liquor...especially when confronted with the guy of her dreams.

And boy when this girl dreams, she dreams big!

Between two brothers...

Xander Santiago spent years living it up as a billionaire playboy. Never given a chance to lead his family business in the boardroom, he became a Master in the bedroom instead. His older brother inherited the company and worked tirelessly to make it an empire. But while the cutthroat corporate espionage took its toll on Javier, nothing was as devastating as the seemingly senseless murder of his wife. It propelled him into a year of punishing rage and guilt...until Xander came to his rescue.

Comes an irresistible woman...

Eager to rejuvenate Javier’s life, Xander shanghais him to Louisiana where they meet the beautiful London McLane. After surviving a decade of tragedy and struggle, London is determined to make a fresh start—and these sexy billionaire brothers are more than willing to help. In every way. And London is stunned to find herself open to every heated suggestion...and desperately hoping that her love will heal them.

And inescapable danger...

But a killer with a hidden motive is watching, on a single-minded mission to destroy everything the Santiago brothers hold dear, especially London. And as fear and desire collide, every passionate beat of her heart could be her last.

Once: Gypsy Fairy Tale by Dana Michelle Burnett (Guest Post/Giveaway)

Today I would like to give a warm welcome to Dana Michelle Burnett, who is joining us with the first book in her Gypsy Fairy Tale series, ONCE!

The Gypsy Graveyard

First off, thank you so much for having me on the blog today!  I love visiting blogs and getting the chance to introduce myself and my characters to new readers.

My new novella is entitled Once and it is the first book in my Gypsy Fairy Tale Series.  I set the story in Corydon Indiana, which may sound like an odd place to have a group of Irish Travellers hiding an ancient tribe of immortals, but hey, why not?

Actually, Indiana and gypsies have a long and frightening history that I only recently discovered.  In the town of Crown Point, there is a cemetery which holds the graves of a group of Romney gypsies and it is one of the famous ghost stories of Indiana.
