Death of Darkness by Dianne Duvall
Immortal Guardians Book #9
Release Date: August 20, 2019

Seth has led the Immortal Guardians for thousands of years. With them fighting by his side, he has protected humans from psychotic vampires, defeated corrupt mercenary armies, defended military bases under attack, and more. But the latest enemy to rise against the Immortal Guardians has proven to be a formidable one, wielding almost as much power as Seth. His goal is simple. He wants to watch the world burn. And he will use every means at his disposal to accomplish it. Seth and his Immortal Guardians have succeeded thus far in staving off Armageddon despite heartbreaking losses. But they have never before faced such danger. Seth has only one wish: to protect his Immortal Guardians family and ensure the continuation of humanity by defeating his foe. But then Leah walks into his life and sparks a new desire.

Leah Somerson has suffered losses of her own. It has taken her a long time to rebuild her life and find some semblance of peace. Then one night a tall, dark, powerful immortal with what appears to be the weight of the world on his shoulders stumbles into her shop, and everything changes. Peace and contentment are no longer enough. Now she wants more. She wants to find happiness. She wants to erase the darkness in Seth’s eyes and replace it with love and laughter. She knows he’s different in ways that make most fear him. Even some of his immortal brethren keep a careful distance. But Leah will not. Nor will she shy away when danger strikes.

Lara Adrian’s New York Times and #1 international bestselling Midnight Breed vampire romance series continues with Break the Day, an adrenaline-laced, passionate new novel of paranormal adventure.

After a shocking betrayal nearly killed him and the people he cares about the most, what Breed warrior Rafe wants more than anything is revenge against the insidious brotherhood called Opus Nostrum. But to achieve that goal, he must turn his back on the Order and infiltrate a dangerous gang with ties to Opus. Risking everything to redeem himself and carry out his deep-cover mission, Rafe will let nothing stand in his way–least of all his desire for one of the loyalists he should despise, a mysterious, dark-haired beauty named Devony Winters.

But Devony has secrets of her own to protect, as well as a personal duty she will do anything to fulfill. And as a daywalker passing herself off as human to the gang she’s been embedded with for months, the last thing she needs is a dangerous former member of the Order unraveling all her hard work. Her plans depend on keeping Rafe at arm’s length, but if she surrenders to the dark need he stirs within her, it will be her heart that pays the ultimate price.

Audiobook Lovin’ Presents: An Interview with Rebecca Zanetti

Banner 2018 Audiobook Lovin

Hi everyone and welcome to Audiobook Lovin, presented by Books-n-Kisses and Viviana, Enchantress of Books. We’re excited to have author Rebecca Zanetti with us here today.

Rebecca: Howdy! Thanks for having me over today!

Q: Rebecca, for those of our followers that don’t know you. Can you please tell us a little about yourself?

RZ: Sure! I’m from the Pacific Northwest, and I write paranormal romances and romantic suspense novels. I’m married and have two kids, and I’ve worked as a Senate Aide, lawyer, college professor, and hearing examiner in the past.

Q: In the three years we’ve been hosting Audiobook Lovin, we’ve discussed the process of selecting a narrator with both authors and narrators. We’ve discovered instances where authors were heavily involved in the process or provide ideas of what they wanted and those that some were 100% involvement in the selection of the narrator. On the opposite side, there have been authors were not part of the process at all. What was your level of involvement with your books being formatted to audio books? 

RZ: I’ve done both. There are series where I’ve sold the rights and not been involved past that, and there are series where I’ve done everything from chosen the audition excerpt to hiring the narrator to paying said narrator. I’ve enjoyed both paths, to be honest.

Q: Can you please us do you listen to your own audiobooks? If yes/no why?

RZ:  I don’t listen to my own audio books, just like I don’t read one of my books after it has been released. I think I’d just want to keep tweaking it or changing minor parts, and it’s too stressful to think about it since I can’t do it. Once a book is out there, I figure it’s not mine anymore, anyway.

Q: If someone one who is new to audiobooks was to ask “why do people listen to audiobooks” how would you answer this?

RZ: I think a lot of folks listen to audiobooks while multitasking. Some do so while commuting or driving, while others do so while they’re doing other tasks.

Q: Can you tell us what you are currently working on? Any secret projects you can share?

RZ: Right now I’m gearing up for the release of Vampire’s Faith, which happens on June 19th. It’s the newest book in the Dark Protector series, and it sets off a whole new arc, so it’s perfect for new readers to join in the fun.

Q: If you could pick one person to narrator your life who would it be and why?

RZ: Lucille Ball, if she were still alive.

Q: How about a quick speed round… ready?

Coffee or Tea? Tea

Taco or Burger? Burger

Summer or Winter? Winter

Mountain or Beach? Mountain

Audiobook Lovin’ Presents: Guest post by Angela Dawe + a giveaway

Banner 2018 Audiobook Lovin

Viviana, Enchantress of Books and I are pleased to welcome the talented Angela Dawe to the blog!!!

Angela DaweAngela Dawe is an actor and narrator based in the Midwest. She has had the privilege of narrating many wonderful books featuring sweet and satisfying HEAs, including multiple titles by Nora Roberts, Jennifer Ashley’s Highland Pleasures series, the Psy-Changeling-Trinity series by Nalini Singh, and the Kathleen Turner series by Tiffany Snow. In addition to voice acting, Angela has acted on stage and screen, and has worked extensively as a sketch and improv comedian.

*****
What would happen if a narrator became a character in one of their favorite authors series?  Well Angela Dawe has written a fun little story.  She has become a herself in the Nalini Singh‘s Psy-Changleing series. Shall we take a look at the newest member of the Psy-Changleing world? 
******

Angela Dawe, alpha of the small but powerful StarSerif clan, clicked the “Send Audio Files” icon on her tablet and sat back in her chair, rolling strong shoulders stiff from hours in front of a microphone. Moaning low at the feel of her taut muscles finally stretching, she rolled her head around in a slow, clockwise motion, then repeated the move counterclockwise, easing the tension from her pale, slender neck. Tendrils of her dark-honey hair had escaped her hasty bun, and now she felt them tickling her skin. It occurred to her that was the first tactile sensation she’d been aware of since beginning her session in the recording booth.

She’d been narrating for over seventeen hours without a break, losing all sense of time and space as she immersed herself in the life of Ena Mercant. Her clanmate Luke Daniels had finished his final edits on the biography he’d written about the famous 19th-century Psy poet just days before, after having spent nearly three years researching her work and her life – the work and life with which Angela now felt intimately familiar. When the StarSerif alpha narrated a story, she didn’t just read about the people in it; she became them. It was why she’d become one of the most sought-after narrators in the world of audiobooks.

As Angela released a luxurious sigh, a message popped up on her screen from her clanmate and producer Tanya Eby:

Files successfully downloaded. Proofing should have any pickups for you by Thursday. Presale numbers are looking good! Between Luke’s incredible writing, your incredible narration, and Ena Mercant’s incredible life, I smell another Audie for Scarab Publishing… 🙂

Angela chuckled. Scarab Publishing was her beloved clan’s main source of income, and in the seven years since becoming alpha, Angela had used her rare combination of business acumen, artistic vision, and good old-fashioned charm to make it one of the most respected – and successful – publishing houses in the Western hemisphere. Securing the rights to Ena Mercant’s private estate and personal vault on the PsyNet had been StarSerif’s biggest coup to date, and if she hadn’t already known the world was waiting with breathless anticipation for the chance to finally learn the details of the brilliant recluse’s life, the countless media requests she’d been receiving for interviews and soundbites would have made it clear as day.

She dashed off a quick reply to Tanya:

Luke really outdid himself with this one, that’s for sure. As for the Audie, you know I’ve always trusted your sense of smell… 🙂

Speaking of smells… Angela’s awareness prickled as she realized a certain smell had crept into her recording studio – not a metaphorical smell, either. No, this was the very real scent of cedar and eucalyptus and fresh mountain air, and another subtle note she’d yet to put her finger on. Despite having only met him twice, she would have known his scent anywhere: Constantinos Nicolaides, the human CEO of Galaxy Publishing, a man known as much for his curious combination of shocking good looks and disdain for romance as he was for his ruthless business dealings.

Galaxy, the largest publisher in the world, had been trying to acquire StarSerif Publishing for the better part of a year now. Normally, Constantinos Nicolaides controlled every aspect of Galaxy’s dealings from his reputedly opulent office suite on the top floor of the company’s headquarters in Chicago, but he’d made the unprecedented decision to take on the StarSerif’s negotiations in person after Angela and her three closest lieutenants, Mikael Naramore, Dick Hill, and Karen White, had all but laughed a lower-ranking Galaxy representative out of the room when, during a meeting in a Detroit hotel conference room, the poor man had suggested they sell out to the larger company.

Now she felt her blood rush inexplicably at the awareness of his presence, and in the instant before turning around to face him, she tried to deduce what tactic he was employing by showing up here today. The fact that Nicolaides had come unannounced to StarSerif’s hive, nestled in the beautiful “up north” region of Michigan’s lower peninsula, was not entirely shocking to her; the element of surprise could be useful in business negotiations. But the fact he’d made it into her her studio space without tripping any alarms or revealing himself to any of the sentries who would have informed her of his presence as soon as they’d become aware of it, made her wonder who exactly she was dealing with. Why would a hotshot publishing tycoon possess the stealth of a predator?

One thing Angela knew for sure: she was no man’s prey…

*****

So what do you think?  I am pretty sure that Angela needs a permanent role in Nalini’s series 😀
