It's party time!! Before we start passing out the cocktails, I thought I'd lay out how the party will run.
First, it's going on all week.
Second, there are going to be at least two posts per day, though a couple of days have three. Each post will be by a different guest author and all of them have giveaways...which is why the theme is Xmas Come Early! Each giveaway will run for at least 24 hours, so even if you miss seeing a post go up, make sure to scroll down past the most recent post and enter. To make it easier for you to party-hop from post to post and keep track, I'm going to be numbering them.
I've got new and established category authors from Sweet to Medical, debut authors (yay!), erotica authors (ooh la la), historical authors and of course, paranormal. And that's not all! Some are friends and some are new to me. But one thing's for sure - they are all ready to party! :)
Okay, let's kick off this party in style. Would you like to win an advanced look at Visions of Heat? I'll print out, sign the manuscript and send it to you. Or if you haven't read Slave to Sensation, I'll send you a copy of StS instead.
All you have to do to enter is tell me which fictional character you'd bring to life if you had superhero powers?! (I'll pick a random winner sometime tomorrow). Hmm, I find myself torn between Mr. Darcy and the dragon Temeraire - how cool would it be to talk to a dragon?! Ok, your turn!

My first pick would be Rhett Butler.
Easy choice. Who would not want to meet and talk to J.D. Robb's Roarke?
Joyce, you took the words right out of my mouth! lol I would so love to meet Roarke!
I agree, Roarke definately has to be bought to life. Gorgeous, mega-rich, dangerous, Irish accent, I could go on and on.
Or you could bring J.R Ward's Phury to life. A hot, tortured, celibate vampire. What more do you need?
My pick is Wrath from Dark Lover.
Roarke is tempting, but I think I would go with Jamie from Diana Gabaldon's Outlander books!
WHoo Hoo< let's get the party started!!
Oh, and I want ASHm from the Dark hunter series. Uh hmm, yummy!
It would have to be Roarke!
Nalini, this is the sort of question that torments people! How could you? Like Annie, I'll be coming up with candidates all day. Mr Darcy definitely. Phury - oh, yes, please! I had a huge crush on Prince Andrei from War and Peace. Or Captain Wentworth from Persuasion. Mr Rochester? Yes, he had his problems but he was interesting. Rupert from Mr Impossible. Actually, yes, that's my choice - Rupert from Mr Impossible by Loretta Chase. Bring him on!
Hmmm...so many to choose from but I'll say Derek Craven from Dreaming of You by Lisa Kleypas.
LKH's Jean Claude. Can you imagine? Wow. :D
Love the Visions of Heat cover by the way! Hawt! :D
I would love to meet Atticus Finch. What an honour that would be.
Ooh, I thought of Roarke too but then I figured he might be a bit mad at being parted from Eve *g*
Mr. Darcy gets my vote for sure!
That's a really hard one. How can you pick just one? I have to agree with several of the others, though. I'd love to have a brother from J.R. Ward's series. It'd have to be one not matched up yet though, cause I hope he'd want ME! I'd say either Phury or John Matthew aka Tehrror. (sp?)
Hey, Roarke gets my vote,too. Would love to catch a glimpse of that man in action.
I'ld like to talk... with Leigh's August Brothers especially Cade or Mikhail from Dark Prince
Oh, Temeraire would be so cool.
I wanted to say Miles Vorkosigan, but I think his energy would kill me, so I'm going to pick his wife Ekaterin instead.
So many great characters already mentioned but I think my pick would be LKH's Asher or Frost.
There have been lots of good characters mentioned, but I think I'll have to go with Rhett Butler. Who could turn down that wicked grin of his?
So hard to choose! Funny how I can't think of any romance heroes. it's like reading them, I can see how well they'd do with their heroines, but not for me. But Temeraire would be awesome, love that series and he's such a wonderful dragon.
Wow! I was also thinking of one of the brothers from J.Ward series. Rhage is all someone could ask for: a great warrior, a dragon and a vampire.
I also love Lucas from STS. I have a thing for Panthers I think that they are very smart, sexy and intriguing animals.
Without hesitation, Roarke from the Eve Dallas series!
Smooches Barbara! I have a thing for panthers, too (in case you couldn't tell lol):)
Wow, I think Roarke is trampling over the competition!
I am right in the middle of a Roarke book right now, so I'm with you lot on that one. Though I fear I might simply pass out in the face of all that beauty!!!
I'll add Mayor Phineas Tucker from 'Welcome to Temptation' to the mix, if I may.
This is too much fun Nalini!!!
Ally
I would love to bring Aragorn to life
I'd like to meet any one of the Coulter brothers from Catherine Anderson's series. Sexy men on paper, but would they be in real life?
Just thought of 3 more men I'd like to bring to life. The 3 special forces dudes in Fiona Brands books - Marrying McCabe, Cullens Bride and Heart of Midnight.
And I agree Ally - Phin for me too.
I'd like Jamie Fraser from Diana Gabaldon's 'Cross Stitch' series to step off the pages.
Not sure about the looks department but boy, does that hero have page presence!!
Ally, I'm with you on Phineas. Of Fiona Brand's guys Blade Lombard wins hands down!!And then there's the oh so enigmatic Jacob Catlin in Elizabeth Lowell's Tell Me No Lies.
Tessa
have i missed the 24 hours? I hope not! I would like to speak with Dream of the Endless from the Sandman series by Neil Gaiman and anyone from the Black Dagger Brotherhood!
Nah Tessa, I like Cullen the best.
Although they are all gorgeous men.
Legolas comes immediately to mind!
Catherine Asaro's Sauscony. Now there's a woman!
I would choose Wolverine from X-men.
Ash and Semi of the Dark-Hunter fame, Ranger and Morelli from the Plum series, and Brad Pitt as Achilles from the movie Troy.
What fun! Mr. Knightley from Emma, if you please!!
RULAGH, the exo-biologist and veterinary surgeon at the Interstellar Humane Society in the book THE HUNTRESS by Barbara Karmazin.
Roarke, of course.
Colin Bridgerton from Romancing Mister Bridgerton by Julia Quinn
Joe Morelli, I think. Captain Wentworth. Mr Darcy. Wolverine. Too many fictional men -- not enough time!
Great party, Nalini. And thanks to Annie for extending the invitation.
