Safari Heat Blog Hop, Sept. 11-16, Giveaways and Prizes

   

Win!!

The Grand Prize is a Kindle Fire HD 7".  The Second Prize is a $100 Gift Card to Amazon or B & N. Plus books to go on the winner's new Kindle.

Winners need to be in the US or Canada.

All the rules and how the hop will work is listed on the Safari Heat site.  Follow the link below.

Safari Heat Blog Hop

There are four ways you can earn extra entries into the grand prize giveaway:  You will get an entry for completing each of these things--leaving a comment, following my blog, following me on Facebook or Twitter.  When you leave a comment, you need to leave the following info.  Here is an example:

Name: Karen Rose Smith
E-mail: Karen@karenrosesmith.com
Comment: Great post
Twitter: Followed
Blog: Followed
Are you a reader or author: Author
Country you link in: United States



You are NOT required to do any of these, but if you do them all, you will get four entries.

What is "heat" in a book?  Does it mean explicit love scenes?  Or does it mean the tension and level of emotional intensity that heat up the novel and your emotion as a reader?

ALWAYS DEVOTED has many levels of heat.  There is sexual chemistry that invades each of Emma's and Linc's encounters.  Emma doesn't feel Linc is in her league because he's CEO of a mega media company.  He had power.  She has none.  Then there is the emotional tension between Emma and anyone searching for her sister Tina.  Her longing to find Tina invades all of her interchanges with other characters, as well as her own thoughts that rev up encounters between her and Linc.  All of the tension cyclones into a night of intense lovemaking between Emma and Linc right before the mystery of her missing sister is solved.

In addition to the prizes listed above, I will be giving away a print copy of ALWAYS HER COWBOY.  I will draw the winner from the comments on my blog.
Also, there weill be daily giveaways.  See teh schedule below.
