Haha! :) So funny. If only I were a Vampire, I could have written this so much faster with my super-speed.
I really want to know what everyone thinks is happening in this cover. Any guesses? I won't tell you if you are correct though. But I'd love to know how it is perceived.

This one I also must be silent on. Zip.
Carol, You are quoting me! I hope you are proofing me before you quote though. :) You know how bad I am.

Ohh, I'm all happy about quoting, as long as you proof it first. :) I cannot be trusted on my own. Haha!

I am not yet in my cackling and rubbing my hands together in glee phase yet, but I can't manage to wipe the grin from my face and I'm laughing an awful lot. :)

Not true! Most of the time is actually taken up by the mind's massaging and molding the ideas into a coherent form. Physical speed can't help with that.
I'm reading Meljean Brooks "Guardian" series and her Vampires think with extra proficiency and speed as well. So in her world, this would be true. But sadly you are correct in the Bluebell Kildare series. :)
Hey Everyone! I have a teaser for you. 7 lines from my prologue. I hope you enjoy. :)

Darkness falls, and the moon hangs high and bright atop a shield of mist. The glowing orb is ambivalent to my worry about being easier to track, but at least it gives light to walk by. The fog thickens with each passing hour as I move steadily toward the sea. Serpent-like, it twists and writhes, then billows up in alarming gusts, enveloping us in its pearly, biting embrace. Despite my chattering teeth, I take solace in the icy wind because it means we must be getting closer.
I see a nearly imperceptible movement from the corner of my eye. A dark shadow hovers on a tree limb high above, out of place in the misty forest. Then the fog shifts, and the shadow disappears in a smear of white like the rest of the world. But I know what it is.
So this is it, then. I have come so far, but the beast will get me before I reach safety. The fear and panic that have been building within me for days have finally driven me to my wit’s end. I will stop this now.
“Show yourself!” I shout. “Let me look upon the face that will end my life and the life of this innocent child.”
The shadow leaps from the trees above me, and the man—no, the beast who used to be a man—stands before me now. Tall and powerful with long fangs cutting into his lip. Dirty and ragged, the tattered remnants of clothes hanging off him. Then he speaks, and his voice is that of a man. “I have no wish to harm you. I’ve seen what happens to those who kill to ease their craving.”
His sharp eyes pierce me.
I don’t believe him, and though I tremble in fear, I bite back. “Then why do you stand over me while I sleep and gaze at my neck with longing? Why, even now, do your eyes flit to the lifeblood pulsing there?”

I just checked on Amazon.de and there it is already available to be bought right now, therefore not on pre-order...
But I will wait for the party tomorrow. Anyway, I am still in my re-listening of part one. I thought I would be through it by now. Been listening to it on my way to and from work, part of it last and all of this week. But it wasn't enough. Maybe I switch into re-reading tonight. But the audio is narrated beatyfully!

A world unravels and a heroine arises
Psychic Inspector Blue learns the shocking truth: she’s prophesied to destroy the Great Demon Lilith and save all vampires from burning eternally on the Plane of Fire. Worse yet, she will die three deaths during this one life. Jack, her sexy vampire boss, reveals this significant truth at the Dragomira Magical Artifact shop, and Blue is not pleased that she’s the last to know.
Torn, Jack, struggles between hope that Blue will save all their souls and his intense desire to protect her from this terrible destiny. With a vicious serial arsonist plotting fires in Crimson Hollow and several factions of enemies attacking her at every turn, even help from Jack and her massive wolf Varg may not be enough to save her.
Hate grows and the Great Peace Pact that’s unified the different breeds of humans for two millennia threatens to break. The dark prophecy unfolds.
Amid all this turmoil, Jack pushes Blue’s patience to the limit as his eyes vow yes to her, but his delicious mouth murmurs no. She finally puts her foot down and demands he make a decision.
What will he choose? And can she handle the answer?
The Bluebell Kildare series sweeps you into a spellbinding world, so deceptively familiar, yet extraordinarily dark and powerful, fans call for more.
