Lisabet's News

July 2010

I have tons of exciting news to share this month!

New and Upcoming Releases

Fire in the Blood Cover Just a few days ago, Accent Press released Maxim Jakubowski's erotic anthology Sex in the City: New York, which contains my story "Woman in White". So far the book is only available from Amazon UK but I expect that will change soon. From the list of contributors (not including me!), I'm certain that it's a fabulous collection. I've posted a brief excerpt from my story if you're interested.

My vampire ménage novella Fire in the Blood will be released by Total-E-Bound on August 16th. I just finished the edits and I have to say, they left me wet and breathless. This is one of the most sexually intense books I've written in a while. You'll find an excerpt here, though it's a bit of a tease.

I'm going to be doing a mini-blog tour to promote this book during August, with character interviews, background notes and of course prizes. If you want to be kept up-to-date on my appearances (and your chances to win), join my Yahoo group, Lisabet's List.

Penny at Black Raven's reviews gave Necessary Madness Five Ravens and a Recommended Read award. She writes:

Necessary Madness grabbed my attention from the first page to the very end. Ms Sarai’s skills as a word builder almost took my breath away. I could feel Kyle’s utter despair as he suffered through the visions that plagued him. It was equally as easy to feel the pain that Rob was feeling as he struggled against his attraction to Kyle.
You can read the entire review here.

Phaze Books has finally released my erotic thriller Exposure in print! You can buy it directly from Phaze or from Amazon.com.

And last, but not least, I just signed a contract with Total-E-Bound for my story "The Understudy". This tale will be released in November as part of a M/F BDSM anthology called Master Me

Other News

Last month I promised you a summer romance for free reading. I always try to keep my promises! Click here to read "Last Dance", an intense, nostalgic romance story with a hint of the paranormal that captures what I feel is the essence of summer.

I finished and submitted my Christmas story "Almost Home". Now I'm waiting to hear the decision! It was fun writing about snow; it brought back some happy memories of my time living in New England.

Tomorrow (the 17th of July) I'm blogging at Hitting the Hot Spot. My topic is "Too Much Sex". Curious? Drop by and see what I'm complaining about.

Contests!

Thanks to all who entered my Wish Fulfillment contest. The lucky winner is Virginia from Virginia. She wished for a copy of Incognito, which is now in her hands!

For my July contest, I'm giving you multiple chances to win. To enter, go to the Free Reading and pick a story to read. Then send me an email to contest [at] lisabetsarai.com with the subject "Free Reads Contest". In your email, tell me the first name of the main character(s) in the story. That's all there is to it! I'll randomly pick a winner on the 16th of August and give away a copy of my brand new release Fire in the Blood.

But here's the good part. You can read more than one story, and send in more than one entry, if you'd like. Just make sure that you send a different email for each story. There are more than twenty stories on the site; that's a lot of chances!

Speaking of chances, you still have a few days to enter my giveaway at Nikola's book blog. He's going to draw a winner on the 25th of July. Go to http://cunninghamfan.blogspot.com/2010/07/interview-giveaway-lisabet-sarai.html for more information!

Lisabet's Pick of the Month

My July Pick of the Month is the Nikola's Book Blog. This is not just because he did such a great interview of me! Seriously, I'm impressed by the variety in his reading and the intelligence of his comments. Check out his Amazon wish list. I only wish all twenty year olds displayed this level of intellectual maturity!
