Nina is giving away a signed copy of WICKED EDGE along with a $20 gift card to one winner!

USA Today bestselling author Nina Bangs once again returns to the Castle of Dark Dreams, the major attraction in an adult theme park dedicated to fantasy role-playing.

Edge is the cosmic troublemaker in charge of death. His past is littered with pain and destruction, and that’s the way he likes it. Then he meets Passion. Now he must prove to himself and others that he is what he has always been: cold and emotionless.

But our heroine has her own issues. Passion is a less-than-perfect angel. She thinks he’s irredeemable. She believes she won’t care. She soon finds she cares very much indeed. And as they join forces to battle an evil intent on destroying both their worlds, she finds that love can pull even the most irredeemable hero back from the WICKED EDGE.

Lauren is giving away a signed copy of CHAOS BURNING!

The life of Lark Jaansen, hunter in Clan Gennessee, has been shaped by violence and unrest—and it defines her future. Well-trained and resilient, she’s met her militaristic match in Simon Leviathan, a warrior not of this world. Locked in mutual admiration, and a desire so hot it burns, Lark and Simon have something else in common: they love the dark, and as a shadow is cast over their world, they’re each coming into their own. A war has been waged among the Others. As witches and humans turn against each other, as fae retreat, and as vampires rise, Lark and Simon discover that an unseen force is behind it. An entity older than recorded history has returned to gorge on the magick of his victims. He is the Magister, nothing less than the end of time. Finding him is Lark and Simon’s first hope. Surviving him is their last.

Fifth grade teacher Mia Quinn expected a tranquil summer in her hometown of Lonesome Way, sewing for her quilting group’s exhibition fund-raiser and caring for her rescued dog, Samson. But all her plans for a relaxing break are thrown out the window when Travis Tanner — the boy who broke her heart in high school — returns to town with his ten-year-old adopted stepson. Now an FBI agent, the boy Mia once knew has turned into well over six feet of male muscle — and he still has the power to make Mia lose her train of thought with just a glance. When Travis asks her to tutor his troubled son, Mia quickly discovers that the sparks between them are hotter than ever. As danger comes to Lonesome Way and family secrets come to light, will Travis and Mia realize that love can be even better the second time around?
