Vancouver

A great big thank you to all of the readers who made my first Canadian signing so totally awesome!! Now I'm going to expect a standing-room only audience at any future signings I do here! :-)

We did record the Q&A and so did a reader, so once one of the videos goes live, I'll post up the info.

Then, to top off my good mood this morning, I woke to find the Psy-Changeling series on NPR's list of 100 Swoon-Worthy Romances. Check it out - there are tons of great recommendations on the list!

Today and tomorrow, I'm holing up in my hotel room to finish the final proofs of Rock Redemption. It's already been edited and proofread professionally, but I like to do my own read before I turn over the manuscript for formatting, make sure no gremlins have snuck in.

Also, don't forget, the second excerpt from Archangel's Enigma goes up next week, August 4th.

I hope you're all having an awesome week so far. What are you up to?

Rock Redemption - Out October 6th

ROCK REDEMPTION

Nalini Singh
(Out October 6th)

From New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh comes the next contemporary romance in the Rock Kiss series…

Kit Devigny could have loved rock guitarist Noah St. John. Their friendship burned with the promise of intense passion and searing tenderness…until the night Noah deliberately shattered her heart.

Noah knows he destroyed something precious the night he chose to betray Kit, but he’d rather she hate him than learn his darkest secret. All he has left is his music. It’s his saving grace, but it doesn’t silence the voices that keep him up at night. Chasing oblivion through endless one-night-stands, he earns a few hours’ sleep and his bad boy reputation.

When a media error sees Noah and Kit dubbed the new “it” couple, Kit discovers her chance at the role of a lifetime hinges on riding the media wave. Wanting—needing—to give Kit this, even if he can’t give her everything, Noah agrees to play the adoring boyfriend. Only the illusion is suddenly too real, too painful, too beautiful…and it may be too late for the redemption of Noah St. John.

Please note, you MUST include your mailing address in the entry. (We have to post these out before we fly to New York tomorrow, so there will be no time to follow up. Entries without mailing addresses will be disqualified.)

If you'd like to go in the random draw to win one of 7 Advanced Reading/Review Copies of Archangel's Enigma, send an e-mail to naliniDOTassistantATgmailDOTcom (replace DOT/AT with symbols ./@), with:

ARCHANGEL'S ENIGMA ARC Contest" in the subject line  

AND 

Your mailing address in the body of the email.

By 9a.m., 15th July 2015, New Zealand time.

                                           Contest now closed. Winners have been notified.


Please follow the correct format for entry re the subject line, so your e-mail goes into the right in-box. (Your e-mail address will only be used to contact you should you win, and your mailing address will only be used to post out the ARC to you should you win.)

Since this is an Advanced Review Copy, if you win, we'd ask that you please post a review somewhere before the release date (September 1st) - on a blog, on Amazon, B&N, Goodreads...it's up to you, but it would be much appreciated if you'd post your thoughts somewhere. The contents of the review are, of course, totally up to you.

A note about the ARC - it's substantially the same as the final book, but since ARCs are printed prior to the final round of edits, there are some errors in the text that aren't in the final book.

- Nalini & Ashwini : )

The fine print: Contest is open internationally. One entry per household. Entries without mailing addresses included will be disqualified. No purchase necessary to enter. Winners will be chosen randomly using random.org and the ARCs mailed out on 15th July 2015. Void where prohibited.

A funny

Ashwini found this and shared it with me. Had to keep the sharing going, because this needs to happen. Telepathic keyboards asap! ;-)

Edits, Blurbs, Excerpts, and Newsletter Vignette

Lots of news today!

I've just got the manuscript for the next Rock Kiss book back from the copy editor, so I'll have my head down for the next week going over that.

The blurb will be ready for release next week, on the 15th. Don't forget to swing by to have a read. No cover yet, but it's in progress! Release date is October 6th.

The first Archangel's Enigma excerpt is up on the website. This is the same excerpt as that which went out in the June newsletter. The second advance excerpt will be up on August 4th. Then the book will release on September 1st!

I'm continuing to work on the Psy-Changeling novella anthology I mentioned last year in this post. No release date on that yet as I want to complete everything first, but I'm  now on the final novella (two stubborn characters who are meant to be together and who are giving me fits! More to come once I figure out what's happening with them).

The July newsletter will be going out in about ten hours after this post goes live. I've written a brand new vignette for it that I hope you'll all enjoy. If you aren't yet a subscriber, you can join up at this link. If you join too late for this month's newsletter, or have any other issues subscribing, email Ashwini and she'll make sure you get a copy: naliniDOTassistantATgmailDOTcom

So that's my news. What are you up to?

p.s. Sorry for the missing book club last week. We're back to regularly scheduled programming as of this week!

Bastien and Kirby's story is now out in German! I hope you enjoy this Psy-Changeling novella!

Versprechen der Dunkelheit

Eine neue Kurzgeschichte aus der Gestaltwandler-Reihe von Nalini Singh!

Lange hatte der DarkRiver-Leopard Bastien Smith nach seiner Gefährtin gesucht und als er ihr nun endlich gegenübersteht, ist er fest entschlossen, sie nie wieder gehen zu lassen. Denn die süße Kirby entfacht eine Begierde in ihm – so ungezähmt und ekstatisch, wie er sie noch nie zuvor gespürt hat …
