Valentine's Day will be upon us in the next couple of days, and Romance is in the air, especially in our house. Mr. Mc. and I met on the 13th Feb, 22 years ago (we were one of his early shots that year! Lol!) So, Cupid's Day is always a sort of double celebration* for us. But this year we're making it a triple*. Our third celebration is the release of my third Spellcrackers book (how's that for synchronicity!).

And my 3rd book is, if you've been following the celebratory giveaways,
The Bitter Seed of Magic!
It releases in the UK on 17th Feb (1st time in print), but
The Book Depository seem to be shipping early! Yay!
(Don't forget you could win a copy here at
Rabid Reader - scroll down - or here at
Falcata Times)
and, of course, in a few weeks time we'll be celebrating again when ...
The Cold Kiss of Death - Spellcrackers # 2 released in the US on 26th April (
out now in the UK)
But it's another pair of fang-tabulous LoveBirds, one of my favourite couples from an awesome paranormal romance/ UF series, that are featuring in this week's (# 5) celebratory giveaway . . .
This Side of the Grave** by
Jeaniene Frost ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dZP11OO0i2Y/TVV9RW5zEwI/AAAAAAAAA9s/4vXVH255J0M/s320/JF+TSOGrave.jpg)
Danger waits on both sides of the grave…
Half-vampire Cat Crawfield and her vampire husband Bones have fought for their lives, as well as for their relationship. But just when they’ve triumphed over the latest battle, Cat’s new and unexpected abilities threaten to upset a long-standing balance…
With the mysterious disappearance of vampires, rumors abound that a species war is brewing. A zealot is inciting tensions between the vampires and ghouls, and if these two powerful groups clash, innocent mortals could become collateral damage. Now Cat and Bones are forced to seek help from a dangerous “ally”-the ghoul queen of New Orleans herself. But the price of her assistance may prove more treacherous than even the threat of a supernatural war. …to say nothing of the repercussions Cat never imagined.
Ooh, I can't wait! How about you? And you don't have to, or at least not for the first 20% which you can read
