gone-wild_276Vampires Gone Wild, which includes my Vamp City novella, A Forever Love, is available today for download to your ereader! The official blurb:

The vampires have gone wild in this collection of never-before-published stories by bestselling authors Kerrelyn Sparks and Pamela Palmer, and two rising stars of paranormal romance!

V is for VampWoman by Kerrelyn Sparks

Pamela decides to shed her prim and proper ways for spandex and a mask to help fight the Malcontents. Now if only she weren’t so distracted by the sexy vampire fighting by her side . . .

A Forever Love by Pamela Palmer

Trapped in Vamp City, Lukas has been unable to return to the beauty who stole his heart. But now that she’s stumbled into his world, it will take every ounce of cunning he possesses to keep her alive.

First Dates Are Hell by Amanda Arista

Valiance’s first date in a hundred years is going great . . . until they’re attacked in the parking lot and quiet, unassuming Esme turns out to be way more than she appears.

Blood and Water by Kim Falconer

Beneath the waves of San Francisco Bay lives a vampire race that wants nothing to do with the “landers” except to feed on them. But when Stellan sets eyes on Angelina, everything changes.

The book is available for just $2.99. For those who prefer your books in print form, I’ve been told Avon will be printing a small number for sale through on-line bookstores within the next couple of months. Stay tuned!

Love Untamed lowresAnd if you missed my announcement over the holidays, my seventh Feral Warriors novel, A Love Untamed, is out.

“A Love Untamed is a sure pleaser for fans of this fantastic and exciting series. Surprises and shocks, twists and turns, lows so dark they were a torment to read and highs so lofty they made me dizzy, all pepper the novel making it a true page flipper. 5 Stars!” Long and Short Reviews review of A Love Untamed

Welcome to the Pajama Party at Feral House!

December 9, 2012 · 1,006 Comments

Welcome to Feral House and the second annual Pajama Party!

I’m meeting you on the front stoop of Feral House, today. Careful on the brick steps! It’s a bit chilly here, overcast and cool—a typical December day in Great Falls, Virginia. The Ferals are a little uneasy about so many guests arriving when things have been so crazy. They asked that we all come in at once, so we’ll gather here for a few minutes while everyone arrives. Oh, and by the way, there are still a number of new Ferals unaccounted for. If any of you have accidentally gone feral (drawn fangs and claws) recently, now’s the time to speak up. They’re looking for you!

Kim Castillo, my valiant assistant, is helping me out today. We’re giving away a ton of prizes: Ten signed books plus a Grand Prize of a $50 Amazon gift card! If you win a book, I’ll send you a signed copy of the book of your choice (Feral, Esri, or Vamp City). Just let Kim know which one when you give her your address. (All winners must send Kim (kimscastillo@gmail.com) their snail mail addresses.) If you can’t decide, I’ll surprise you. At the end of the party, we’ll be awarding the Grand Prize which will be drawn at random from everyone who posts during the two hours, including trivia winners. The full list of winners will be posted on my blog tomorrow, so be sure to check back!

Shall we get started?

Follow me down to the Comments section below where everything is happening. You may have to log in the first time (just takes a second), then you’re good to go!

It’s Raining Feral Warriors!

November 7, 2012 · 1 Comment

Grab the nets! I’ve got all kinds of Feral fun for you to catch.

If you love the Feral Warriors and want a never-before-seen glimpse into Lyon and Kara’s story, or if you’re new to the Ferals and want to find out more about these uber hot shape-shifters, I have news! Avon Books has just released (and only for a short while), a special version of Book 1, Desire Untamed with Bonus Material, for just 99 cents!

To celebrate, I’m doing a fab giveaway of a Kindle Paperwhite over at Bitten By Books Thursday, Nov. 7th. RSVP beforehand to increase your chances of winning!

Book 7 in the Feral Warriors series, A Love Untamed, will be in bookstores December 26th and by popular demand I’ll be hosting another Pajama Party at Feral House. Mark your calendars for Sunday, Dec. 9th from 2-4pm EST for two full hours of giveaways, tiny teasers from A Love Untamed, trivia questions, and the occasional appearance by a Feral Warrior or two.

Last, did you know there’s a Feral Warriors novella? Hearts Untamed was originally published as part of the Bitten By Cupid anthology, but has been re-released as a stand-alone e-book for just $1.99. This is Zeeland and Julianne’s story, but several of the Ferals play supporting roles. And this is the story where Melisande, the heroine of A Love Untamed, is first introduced. You’ll get more out of A Love Untamed if you’ve read the novella first. Just saying…

There’s more Feral fun over at my website: excerpts of A Love Untamed, a Fox postcard giveaway, etc. If you haven’t signed up for my Newsletter, don’t forget to do that, too, while you’re over there. It’s the easiest way for me to keep you up-to-date with what’s going on with the Feral Warriors and Vamp City.

Go Feral!

Happy almost Halloween!

I’ve been writing, writing, writing, finishing up the second book in the Vamp City series, A KISS OF BLOOD, which comes out next June. The romance is really starting to spark, the action is off the charts, and I’m absolutely having a blast writing Quinn and Arturo’s story.

In addition, I’ve just written a Vamp City novella about a new couple, Elizabeth and Lukas, that will be coming out February 12th in the Avon Impulse anthology VAMPIRES GONE WILD.

Hearts Untamed is Out Today!

September 18, 2012 · 2 Comments

I’m delighted to announce that my Feral Warriors novella, Hearts Untamed, from the Bitten By Cupid anthology, is now available as a stand-alone e-book for just $1.99. This is the story that introduces Melisande, the bad-tempered and dangerous Ilina, the heroine of my upcoming Feral Warriors novel, A Love Untamed (releases Dec. 26th). Plus, you’ll see Jag in his bad-boy glory, Kougar, and Hawke before any of them found their mates. (For those who prefer print books, Bitten By Cupid is still available.)

From the back cover:

Ten years after he spurned Julianne’s declaration of love and then vanished, Zee’s back—only this time he’s the one being rejected. Julianne’s in desperate straits, and involving Zee could jeopardize his immortality. But he won’t take no for an answer—and Julianne’s about to discover that her former love is even wilder than she thought…

Many Feral fans have told me that this is the story that first introduced them to the Feral Warriors. If you haven’t read it, I hope you’ll take this opportunity to pick it up. Because maybe, just maybe, Zee and Julianne have a role to play in a future Feral Warriors novel. Just saying… ; )

RWA 2012 Anaheim

Lynsay Sands, Kerrelyn Sparks, and I at the Literacy Signing

I’m home from Anaheim and, six days later, finally firmly back on east coast time. What a blast, though! Southern California has the most gorgeous weather. The Anaheim Marriott, where the convention took place, was practically within walking distance of Disneyland, and while I never quite got to Disneyland, I did sneak away one evening with my roommate and critique partner, Laurin Wittig, for drinks and beignets in Downtown Disney.

While days were spent in meetings and workshops, the nights were the most fun. Wednesday night was the Literacy Signing, all proceeds going to charity and over 500 authors signing. Crazy! But always fun.

Thursday night, five authors, two Avon editors, and a member of the Avon Books publicity team traveled to the incredible Cerritos Library for a panel, book signing, and a tour of the most incredible library I’ve ever seen.

Laurin Willig, Sarah MacLean, Lori Wilde, me, Alma Katsu at the Cerritos Library

Friday night was the fabulous Avon Party at Maestro’s Beach club in Newport Beach.

 I’m back home, writing like a fiend before my next trip, New Orleans for Authors After Dark this coming Wednesday. Hope to see some of you there!

 

Meet Pamela Palmer in Southern Cal!
