Cynthia Garner and the KISS OF THE VAMPIRE (ARC Giveaway!) Back to Blog

Update: And the lucky ARC winner is…Krissy Holstein! Congratulations!

Now it’s my pleasure to welcome paranormal author Cynthia Garner to the blog.  I cannot wait for Cynthia’s new book, KISS OF THE VAMPIRE, and I’m actually feeling very jealous right now…because one commenter will win an ARC of her book. Yes, it’s one of those win-it-before-you-can-buy-it-in-stores prizes. I love, LOVE those.  But I am incredibly jealous. Someone is going to get a fantastic read!

Congratulations, Giving Thanks…and More

First, let me start this post by saying congratulations, Cynthia, for the release of ANGEL OF DARKNESS.  I’m looking forward to another great read! Second, thank you for giving me some time here at your place. One of the things I love about romance authors especially is their willingness to support each other!

I’m also thankful for readers who have picked up my books and enjoyed them. Thank you all so much for your support! Starting next year I’m beginning a new series with Grand Central Publishing. In my Warriors of the Rift series, vampires, werewolves and other creatures of myth are no longer stuck between the pages of fairy tales and mythology. They’re loud and proud and living next door. Every 73 to 74 years the Moore-Creasy-Devon comet passes by Earth, opening a rift between dimensions. Entities from the other dimension–mostly criminals though some are political dissidents or persecuted as religious heretics–come through the rift and, in their drive to survive, enter and take over the bodies of human hosts. Their original species dictate the effect this possession has on the human bodies they now possess–some become vampires, some werewolves or other shapeshifters, etc.

The first book, KISS OF THE VAMPIRE, is available for pre-order now! Half-demon, half-human, Nix de la Fuente is accepted by neither and mistrusted by both. Determined to prove she’s more human than not, she devotes herself to solving crimes between the world’s mortals and its most unsavory undead. But her latest case brings her face to face with the one vampire she could never resist . . .

Called in to investigate a string of violent murders, special agent Tobias Caine isn’t interested in rekindling his relationship with Nix. Yet one look and the vampire knows his need for her is as strong as ever. Once, their all-consuming passion nearly cost Nix her fragile hold on her humanity. Now, as their hunger for one another intensifies, exposing them to an unimaginable danger, it could cost them both their lives.

For everyone who leaves a comment on this post, I’ll toss your name into the hat to win an Advance Readers Copy of KISS OF THE VAMPIRE.

    What an interesting idea. How did the rift opening via the comet come to mind? This sounds like a great series.

    This is definitely a very different idea for a supernatural genre book. This sounds highly intriguing!

  11. Amy, you’re welcome. Good luck! 🙂

    Viki, I *knew* someone would ask me that. LOL I honestly don’t know. It’s one of those things that most likely came about from me asking “What it X happened? And then what if XX happened?” It’s weird sometimes how ideas just pop into my head.

    Kara, thanks for stopping by. Best of luck!

    Khelsey, thank you!

    Lora, I love to write about paranormal creatures, but I knew I needed to give an old idea a new twist. It’s paranormal, a little sci fi, and romance all rolled up into one.

  15. Barb, that’s so great to hear. Good luck!

    Good to see you, Regina. Thanks for stopping by.

  26. Caffey says:

    So nice to meet you Cynthia G!!! I lub vamps, demons, werewolf (and all those yummy ones) and reading about this one is a huge delight! I just love the mixture of the half demon and half human! I love to read Ms. Eden’s because when I started with hers, I loved the variety of character types she had, and I started to look for more between her books (like for Succubus, etc, that was the first time I read of!) Will this special agent be in all the books or is it different characters story for each in the series?

    Again great to meet you!

    Hi there, Cathie. Each book will have different characters. In book 2 the hero is a human police detective and the heroine is a werewolf, and in book 3 the hero is a demon and the heroine is fey. You an I actually have met–I previously wrote under the pen name Sherrill Quinn. 🙂

  35. Patricia says:

    Hey! First of all, I love the font they’ve used! Not the title, but the author’s name looks really good. It’s minimalistic. And the blurb sounds promising. We don’t have enough supernatural heroines. And I think half-demons are even more intriguing. At least, to me. I’ve seen the book on Goodreads already, I think. It sounds interesting and I’d love to get to read it earlier. Heh.

    Is this international? I’m not sure if it’s been asked before as there are way too many questions. o.o But I’ve just CTRL-F’ed it and no results are showing, so…

    Um, well anyways, thank you very much for the opportunity! to get an ARC! *_*

    All my best,
    Patricia
