I have been inspired by Puss Reboots to do something a little different with some of my books. Instead of placing this book up on PaperbackSwap as I normally would have done I am instead going to give it away, free, to one of my readers.
Once a medieval knight, Don Rafael Perez has clung to his honor despite seven tortured centuries as a vampire. Now he’s found peace – if not love – as leader of the largest vampire territory in North America. But a rival is challenging his rule – by targeting Grania O’Malley, the forbidden beauty to whom Rafael has lost his heart. But when she’s attacked, will he break his oath of body and soul to never help create a female vampire-and do everything he can to save her? And if he does, can Grania help him destroy the night creature Rafael has always feared?
Diane Whiteside’s Bond of Blood is an engaging, sexy, and fun romp through the countryside of Texas that will keep readers flipping the page from start to finish. While not one of my favorites, I did enjoy the book and I think others will too. Click here to read my review of this book.

A Vampire book? Sounds good, thank you for the post. Have you also a lik to an online-shop where i can get the book, please?
I knew there were vampires in Texas. I live there and I suspect this book may be based on a neighbor. ‘Course he goes by the name of Bubba and drives a pickup, but I think it’s him. I’ve never seen him bite anyone, but he’s got this little dog, Red, that has a mean set of teeth. Yeah. I need to read this book.
Alas! no shipping to India??
Count me in. My blog post about this giveaway will be up on Friday.
Btw, I’m also having a book giveaway at my book review/contest blog – A Book Blogger’s Diary. Drop by if you’re interested.
Thanks!
gautami tripathy,
I’m sorry.
Next time I’ll do a giveaway that is open to all international readers. But this time around, since I’m a bit short on cash, I had to restrict the shipping. And in the case of the destinations not listed, the shipping price was actually more than what the book was worth. x_X
Happy Friday! Thanks very much for offering up your book for a giveaway. I know I appreciate it! It sounds like a wonderful book to read in front of the fireplace (if it remains on the cool side like it is now) or on the back deck on a spring day. Please enter me in your drawing.
Have a lovely weekend…..Cindi
