Branded By Fire Release Day!!

Thank you everyone for making the countdown to Branded By Fire so fabulous!! I hope you all had a fun time and that you enjoy Mercy and Riley's story!!

Thank you also to everyone who's dropped by the blog to comment, and/or written to me about Branded. I'm so absolutely delighted by the response to the book! Because so many of you have written re a spoiler thread, I'll open one up on the blog tomorrow! (There'll also be a spoiler section going up on the fan forum).

I've got a few release day links I wanted to share.

I was interviewed by the lovely Jax Cassidy for Hooked on Romance. Swing by and say hi (there's a book and a super-duper magnet *grin* up for grabs).

Several awesome reviews of Branded have just gone up around the web. Here are some snippets and links!

I closed Branded by Fire at 11 PM, having skipped making or eating dinner until then so I could finish reading Mercy and Riley’s story. Sexy, intense and riveting, this book was also deeply satisfying. I couldn’t put it down.
~ Janine for Dear Author
And from the first chapter when they finally share total skin-to-skin privileges and then some, the pages burn up with passion, lust, anger, tenderness, sensitivity, claws, teeth and all when these two interact in and out of the bedroom.
~Sandy M for The Good, the Bad and the Unread
I've always loved how Singh doesn't simply portray her changelings as people who just happen to be able to shift into animals. Rather, the fact that a they are animals as well as humans influences her changelings even when they are in human form. "Their animal" is still there, and will react to events and feelings, giving changelings' emotional reactions a certain wildness which I love.
~ Rosario's Reading Journal

Oh, those lucky book reviewers - the wait for Branded is driving me crazy!!! I came upon the Psy-Changeling books late into the game, so I had the first 5 books waiting to be read. I went through them like crazy and devoured them all after reading Lucas and Sascha's story, and the books have stayed true to the hot, page turning reads that Slave to Sensation was. I can't wait to see how Mercy and Riley story plays out and hope we get to see more stories from your psy-changeling world!

Happy release day, Nalini! I can't believe it's really here. It sems like forever since the last book.

Oh, and I lend Angel's Blood to my sister in law. I wanted to take her the Psy-changeling books, but I haven't replaced Slave to Sensation yet--I lent it to someone and her toddler ate it. LOL

Natasha said...

Happy release day! Branded By Fire is on my Kindle acting as a huge incentive to get my work done so I can sprawl on the recliner and read.

Una said...

Happy Release Day, Nalini and lots of success and sales!!!

Oh those lucky people who got it early. I'm just grateful I called and confirmed my copy is reserved but they wouldn't let me pick it up yesterday (July 6th). Guess where I am heading on my lunch hour today...oh yes, Mercy and Riley are MINE! =) Can't WAIT!!

Happy release day Nalini! I was lucky enough to get the book a few days early...umm it probably helped that I was calling my bookstore everyday ;)

I'm really sad, went to my local bookstore &walmart, and neither had it...also checked online, none of the barnes & noble in my area have it either...;_;...I'm so sad I have to wait...am tempted to download it, but I prefer a book copy...

Dawn said...

Found Branded at my local Meijer's last week. I had it finished in 2 days. Awsome book :)!!! I can't wait for the next one! November's way too far away *sigh*

I read this in one night, and I tried to pace it out so I could make it last, but it was just too GOOD!!! I loved this, oooh just sooo awesome!

I tell you this all the time and I mean it every time I say it-

Can't wait for the next one!
