GIVEAWAY: What’s Next for Berkley
NOTE: This post will close it’s comments tonight at 8 PM CST and the winners will be posted in the A.M. Jane
I have SEVENTEEN Berkley ARCs of titles scheduled to be published in March, April and May including NYT bestselling authors like Christine Feehan and Lora Leigh. Cindy Hwang, executive editor of Berkley, has donated these books to giveaway to highlight some of their spring titles. Play the slideshow (there is a 4 sec delay) or click through the covers and then take a look at the highlights below. Drop a note in the comments with the title of three books you would like and anything else you think Berkley should know. Winners will be picked at random. I will note that Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy has been read once (by me). It’s hysterical and contains the following line “You are the hottest biscuit this side of the gravy boat.”
****
This spring, Berkley has some really fabulous romances coming up, and it was especially hard to narrow down the list to just two highlights per month. So I cheated a bit and included three books in May. But there are many other exciting Berkley romances not mentioned here, so to find out about all the other current and upcoming books, check out www.berkleyjoveauthors.com.
MARCH
- Known for her bestselling Psy-Changeling series, Nalini Singh has written a new paranormal series, this time featuring vampires and angels. It’s darker and even edgier than her Psy-Changeling series, and I think of it as a bit of a hybrid between paranormal romance and urban fantasy, so the category on the spine is Urban Fantasy Romance–a first for Berkley. You may think that you’ve already read every possible version possible of vampires–with ANGELS’ BLOOD, I guarantee that Nalini brings a real freshness to her world, a new twist that readers wouldn’t have read before. Plus, it has all the sexual tension and passionate romance that readers have come to expect from Nalini. All that and one of the sexiest heroes ever (Raphael is definitely on my personal top 5 list)!
- Robin Schone is no stranger to romance readers–she’s been one of the most innovative and popular names in erotic romance for years–a true groundbreaker. Now, she makes her Berkley debut with CRY FOR PASSION. Set in Victorian London, CRY FOR PASSION is sexy, intense, complex, and emotional–vintage Schone. Berkley also has a special bonus for e-book readers–a free e-book of her previous historical romance, SCANDALOUS LOVERS, is bundled with the e-book of CRY FOR PASSION, so e-book readers will get a great two-fer!
APRIL
- Jory Strong made her name writing erotic romance e-books for Ellora’s Cave, and she makes her Berkley debut with GHOSTLAND, a fascinating blend of urban fantasy and sexy paranormal romance–the second Berkley title that is categorized Urban Fantasy Romance. GHOSTLAND is set in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by plague and war, and where paranormals have come out of hiding, and where society is sharply divided along paranormal lines. A struggle for power among the ruling classes may allow the Djinns to emerge from their self-imposed exile to reclaim their rightful place in the world. Jory has created a fascinating, complex world rich with mythology, and grounded it with a fabulous romance as well.
- Known for her popular military-set category romances, DEFENDER is the first in Catherine Mann’s fabulous "Dark Ops Defenders" series-‘sexy romances featuring an elite squadron of fighter pilots who will do anything for their country-or their women! When a USO boat goes down in flames, test pilot Jimmy Gage pulls a scantily clad Chloe Nelson out of the shark-filled Mediterranean. Although she is grateful and he’s hot as the fire that took the boat down, the last thing Chloe needs is a jet-jock to be her bodyguard-‘until she inadvertently finds herself closer to Gage than she ever expected, and side by side in a dangerous mission. DEFENDER will be followed by HOTSHOT in May 2009, and RENEGADE in Jan 2010.
MAY
- Erin McCarthy returns to the stock car racing world with HARD AND FAST, the follow-up to FLAT-OUT SEXY. And if it’s possible, HARD AND FAST is even funnier than FLAT-OUT SEXY. Erin is fabulous combining smart and sexy with laugh-out-loud funny, and there were moments in HARD AND FAST I literally could not stop laughing. The heroine, Imogen, is a character very close to my heart (I want to be Imogen when I grow up!), and her romance with race car driver Ty is bone-meltingly sensual. One of my favorite moments in the book is the camping scene–I’ll just say I have a similar wardrobe to Imogen, and also learned the hard way that it’s not the most appropriate wardrobe for hiking.
- SEA LORD by Virginia Kantra is the third book in the Children of the Sea series, which is her selkie paranormal romance series. In case you don’t know, selkies are half-human, half-seal–on land, they’re human but transform to seals in the water–as long as they still have their pelt. Take away their pelt, and you take away their ability to transform. SEA LORD is the story of Lucy Hunter and Conn ap Llyr, the selkie prince, and Virginia doesn’t disappoint. Virginia’s selkies are some of the most fascinating paranormal creatures around, and I love how she develops the selkies through their relationships (romantic and otherwise) with humans in her books. Lucy and Conn’s romance is both epic and wonderfully intimate, and SEA LORD really delivers–both on the emotional front, and on the action front. The stakes are high in SEA LORD, and readers will feel every moment.
- From bestselling Deirdre Martin, best known for her hockey romances, comes WITH A TWIST. It’s the first in Martin’s fabulous new series about a large, loving Irish American family named the O’Briens who own the Wild Hart, a pub in the heart of New York City. Readers will love the Irish flair and charming cast of characters as they watch newspaper reporter Quinn O’Brien fall in love with Natalie Bocuse, the sister of the heroine in JUST A TASTE. They will also be pleased with surprise appearances from some of the heroes of Martin’s hockey books.
Cindy Hwang is the executive editor of Berkley who is actively seeking fresh voices in romance. In her spare time, she enjoys Bravo Reality TV and cinema remakes of comic books.
I’ve been waiting for Ghostland – it looks great!
I wish the slideshow had a “hurry up” option. I admit I didn’t make it to the end; I didn’t have it in me to sit here for over a full minute just to watch covers go buy this morning.
I would Like to win the following three books if chosen.
Her Ladyship’s Companion has an appealing cover and I love books where the female knows exactly what she wants and isn’t afraid to go after it.
Sea Lord’s cover intrigued me with its shadowy male figure – the tilt of head and shoulders says he’s in trouble, and a hero in trouble always appeals to me.
Angels’ Blood – I’m a (no pun intended) sucker for vampire books, and am fascinated by the way each author makes her own universe and laws for them. I would inhale a book like this.
I hope I’m chosen, as each of these would be great reads.
I would like to win the following 3 books: Burning Wild by Christine Feehan, Mage by Jean Johnson, and Ghostland by Jory Strong.
I buy ebooks rather than print whenever I can. It would be great if all the ebooks are consistently released on the same day as the print books.
I believe Berkley does do that. If I’m correct, I really appreciate the fact and hope this will continue.
Thanks.
Hi
I would like the following three books if chosen:
Ghostland-because the cover is gorgeous
Hard and Fast- because you said it was funny and funny contemporary romances are the only kinds of straight contemporaries I really like.
Angel’s blood – because it sounds good from the reviews I’ve read.
Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but some of the books offered are series titles. The Mage, for example is number 8 in a series and I think it would be good to know if this is the kind of series a person can enter at Book 8 or if you really need to read the preceding books.
Thanks
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra (based on a friend’s rec)
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy (based on your rec)
Ghostland by Jory Strong (for the cover)
My gripe at the moment is that it took me a week to get Angel’s Blood in Australia. This isn’t really specific to Berkley, but to publishers in general, particularly for books for which no local edition is published. It would be great if we could get new releases at the same time as the US.
Also, some of those covers are just gorgeous.
Hi
I read the entry at Nalini Singh’s Blog about that giveaway and really woulkd like to take part, but problem: I’m from Gemany. Is it possible for me to be chosen?
Well regardless of that, to chose was really hard, since they are all great books, but if I would win I would like to have Burning Wild (love Christine Feehans Leopard Series), The Mage by Jean Johnson and Lora Leighs Nauti Intention.
Thanks and Greetings from Germany ;)
Thank you so much for the chance of winning a book. I would like the chance to win the following books:
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Defender by Catherine Mann
With A Twist by Deidre Martin
I appreciate all the great authors you have given us.
I would love to be the winner of
1. Ghostland – Jory Strong –
Cindy – I think your a genius for signing Jory Strong, I own every single ebook and will own every single paperback, her writing is pretty much guarenteed to satisfy my booklust with enthralling plots, captivating characters and supernova hot sex scenes.
2. Burning Wild – Christine Feehan
Cindy – I have been dieing for a new leopard book for years and I’m ecstatic that Christine has wrote another one, please encourage her for more :)
3. Hard and Fast – Erin Mcarthy.
Cindy – Erin is a relatively new author to me but what I have read is top quality, either making me smile or fan myself to try and cool down.
All in all I thankyou for signing some of my fave authors and their awesome series…
I would like to win:
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy. I have the first book in the series and it looks like a lot of fun.
Ghostland by Jory Strong. I’ve seen this book mentioned at a few sites and it’s on my to-buy list. Great cover!
With a Twist by Deirdre Martin. I’ve never read anything by this author, and your description of the book sounds great.
Thanks.
Hi,
If you are shipping to Scotland please count me in!
1. Sea Lord – Virginia Kantra
I enjoyed the first book in the series very much
2. The Accidental Human – Dakota Cassidy
Dakota Cassidy makes me laugh
3. Ghostland – Jory Strong

I really need to get that new Schone book. It looks wonderful.
With a Twist by Deirdre Martin
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Angel’s Blood by Nalini Singh
I would like Deirdre Martin’s ARC because I read her short story that begins this new series in the anthology she did with Lori Foster and Jacquie D’Alessandro. I want to know what happens next in that family.
I would like Erin McCarthy’s ARC because I’ve read her Las Vegas vampire series and would like to try some of her other work as well.
I would liked Nalini Singh’s ARC because I’ve seen the cover and review for this book almost everywhere and I want to know why people think it so good.
You tease!!! I’ve been waiting for Imogen and Ty’s story forever (okay since Nov, but it feels like forever!)
1. Fast and Hard by Erin McCarthy
2. Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James
3. Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
I want Berkley to know that I want Ryder and Suzanne’s story after Fast and Hard AND I would love more books in this series!!!!

1. The Accidental Human– Dakota Cassidy— she’s hilarious!
2. Hard and Fast– Erin McCarthy- haven’t read her yet, but so want to.
3. Dead If I Do– Tate Hallaway- this one looks interesting.

Ghostland by Jory Strong
Assuming you’re shipping to Australia. :)
Hard and Fast
Riding on Instinct
Ghostland
Cheers!
1. Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy – I’ve been waiting for this one since devouring the Flat Out Sexy
2. Burning Wild – Christine Feehan – I’m a Feehan junkie and her leopard stories are hot
3. Any in the Urban Fantasy Romance category
Note for Cindy – Hooray for an Urban Fantasy category! I can’t wait to try it. Also, I wish the covers (I’m especially thinking of Hard and Fast) weren’t quite so naked. It leads to comments like “Mom, why does your book have nipples on the cover?”
Wow, Berkley has all the good authors I love! It is so hard to choose only 3 books. If I get chosen, I would like-Ghostland by Jory Strong, Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy, and White Star by Elizabeth Vaughan. Thank you.
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan —
because it’s a Christine book! lol I admit it; I snatch hers up without really paying attention to much else than her name on the cover (though I do at least make sure I don’t already have it before buying–but that’s mainly to appease the hubby)
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra —
Something about the cover on this one just appeals to me in a major way.
Angels' Blood by Nalini Singh —
Angels and vampires. Need I say more?
I admit, I’ve never read the last two authors, but the cover alone would have made me pick Sea Lord up off the shelves–to the husband’s very loud grumbling and moaning. And I would possibly even buy them, so long as they aren’t written in first person. I’m unfamiliar with the authors, so I have no idea if they write in first or third, and that’s more a personal taste than talent reflection. I just can’t get into a first person story.
And I also liked the cover for Jaci Burton’s book, Riding on Instinct–the colors on it are really nice and it draws the eye; sexy without being in your face about it. Personally, I prefer this type of cover to the more blatant ones.
I would like Hard and Fast, Nauti Intentions and Riding on Instinct. Can’t wait until they come out. Winning would be better ;)
My three picks would be:
Angels’ Blood by Nalini Singh
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
Thanks to Cindy Hwang & Berkley as well as everyone at Dear Author for this fabulous giveaway! :)
I’d love the following books:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Burning Wild by Christeen Feehan
Revealed by Kate Noble.
It was definitely a challenge trying to whittle it away to 3! I’m amazed at how many great authors Berkley represents. Kudos to them for making good choices!
I would love to have The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy – I’ve read the first book in the Accidental Friends series and I really liked it.
Also, Ghostland by Jory Strong. I’ve heard amazing things about the book and it looks great!
Finally, Dead If I Do by Tate Hallaway. I’ve read all the previous Garnet Lacey books and I have been really looking forward to reading this one.
Thanks for the chance to win and for hosting this great contest!
Quite a few on my list, I’d like to try for:
The Mage by Jean Johnson
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
White Star by Elizabeth Vaughan
The Moon, Sea Lord and Angels’ Blood, if a Canadian is allowed to win *g*
This is honestly a great selection of authors! Some of these titles will be bought and added to my TBR box (no ereader for me just yet). And I want to say, most of those covers are fabulous! I personally am not a huge fan of half (or fully) naked male chests (same as for half naked bosoms) on book covers but those shown in the slideshow were pretty nice on the whole! :)
I would like to win:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
With A Twist by Deirdre Martin
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
This is a great giveaway!
Thanks for offering us a chance to share our wishes and expectations!
Most importantly, do *not* label books as ‘romance’ when they are not! I know the ‘romance’ label sells books, but customers who feel they have been lied to are very angry customers and they stop buying from publishers who do this.
Also, I’d like more books like Judith James’ ‘Broken Wing’, Carolyn Jewel’s ‘Scandal’ and Liz Carlyle’s ‘Tempted All Night’, to name three I recently read that really stuck with me; books with emotional impact that do not rely on outside plot, but explore the characters’ internal world and their motivations.
If I win, I’d like:
McCarthy, Hard and Fast
Collins, Her Ladyship’s Companion (How come neither author nor title are listed on the Berkley Author website?)
Kantra, Sea Lord
Oh, and I’d love some of those fabulous covers that UF and paranormal books get for Historicals as well. I’m tempted by the covers, but since I don’t read paranormal (yes, I know that’s what the Kantra is), publishers are wasting those fabulous covers and not making sales when it comes to me.
I have no issue with naked males, but I’d really like for them to have nipples, because nipples are part of the human anatomy and the obsession to make them taboo in this country is really irritating the crap out of me.
What I’d like to go away are the historical covers showing women’s dresses falling off their backs. Some of the covers are gorgeous, but why are these women’s dresses falling off? They’d be ever so much more gorgeous if they didn’t do that weird stuff!
Some of the most evocative (albeit totally period inappropriate) covers I’ve seen lately are the new Mary Balogh ones.
Fully clothed females who are incredibly sensual and appealing. If the PR department had put them in period appropriate dresses it would have been perfect!
I would love a chance to win a copy of:
Ghostland by Jory Strong – I love this cover. I’ve been trying to get my hands on it since I saw it last fall!
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy – I’ve heard great things about this author. I have The Accidental Werewolf on my desk to read right now!
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra – I loved her novella in the anthology, Shifter.
I would love to read:
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan.
Thank you for the giveaway. :)
What a great selection of books coming out!
I’d love to win a copy of
~Hard and Fast
~The Defender
~Sea Lord
I think Berkley has been doing an exceptional job of publishing
really great stories by a wonderful array of authors. The only change that
I’d like to see is possibly a slight drop in price on older releases. When a person
“discovers” a new author, they like to go back and read that authors backlist.
I know I do, anyway. It would be nice, in this economy, if publishers could make doing so a little easier on our pocketbooks.
Many of them look good, but I think I’ll go with:
Sea Lord
Ghostland
White Star
Hi, I’ve enjoyed reading your site for the last couple of months. Thanks for the opportunity, and I’d love to win:
Hard & Fast – Erin McCarthy
Angel’s Blood – Nalini Singh
Practice Makes Perfect – Julie James
Her Ladyship's Companion – loving the compliment color scheme on the cover!
Sea Lord – love selkies, haven’t read any though
With a Twist – because the hero is flat out driven to get her
Great giveaway!
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Ghostland by Jory Strong
White Star by Elizabeth Vaughan
I’d love the Erin McCarthy book, Deirdre Martin’s With a Twist, and Virginia Kantra’s Sea Lord please!
And thank you to Berkley!
My 3 choices:
1. Riding on Instinct – Jaci Burton
2. Nauti Intentions – Lora Leigh
3. Hard and Fast – Erin McCarthy
It was very difficult to choose!
Here are three authors I’ve never read before.
Julie James – Practice Makes Perfect
Kate Noble – Revealed
Catherine Mann – Defender
I’d like to say Thank You Berkley for still providing ebooks in MS Lit format and for making them available on the MMP publication date. Please don’t stop! Not everyone has a Kindle or Sony!
This is such a great line-up of books. Some of them are auto-buys for me (like Nalini Singh) so I don’t need to put those on the wish list. I’d love to win:
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
I’m with the other commenter who said that ebooks should come out on the same day as hard copy. And thank you for not pricing the ebooks higher than the mass market (*cough* Simon and Schuster *cough*) which merely makes me determined to not to ever buy those books and instead wait for them from the library.
Making backlists available easily via ebooks would be great. Someone else mentioned that when you discover a new-to-you author, you sometimes fall in love and want to gobble up all the books. It’s a lot easier if I can buy all of them online in one big swoop.
Her Ladyship’s Companion
Anything by Robin Schone
Nothing, I repeat, nothing paranormal, shape-shifter-y, nor corporate sponsoring of the heroine with Iphones and designer labels. Judith Krantz did it better, twenty yrs ago.
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Angel's Blood by Nalini Singh
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra
A list rather than a flash of covers would have been easier! Just my opinion.
Discovering Julie James has been one of the best parts of my year so far! She is so hilarious, and I’ve bought my friends her books as gifts!
I would love to win:
1. HARD AND FAST – Erin McCarthy (FLAT-OUT SEXY was one of my top 2008 reads)
2. WITH A TWIST – Deirdre Martin (Loved her hockey series; NHL addict here)
3. REVEALED – Kate Noble (Love a spy romance, heard good things about COMPROMISED)
If I “get lucky”
Practice Makes Perfect
Hard & Fast
Nauti Intentions
The spring releases look great!
Daaaannnngg….check out how many people put Hard & Fast on their wish list.
Long live the contemporary!
“With a Twist” Deirdre Martin
“Nauti Intentions” by Lora Leigh
“Practice makes Perfect” by Julie James
Oh my gosh, I about peed my pants this morning when I saw this giveaway!! I am super excited about Erin McCarthy, but it’s on its way from Amazon already, so hopefully I will get it soon.
I just wanted to say that I think Berkely Publishing has some of the best authors out there. Their funny, the authors understand romance, and book after book they have winners.
THANK YOU!!!
If I win I’ll chose:
Her Ladyship’s Companion
Dead If I Do

3) Angel’s Blood- Angels, Hunters and Vampires written by Singh – enough said.

Clearly, I’m on a contemporary kick!
I wold love to win these 3 titless
1. Riding on Instinct – Jaci Burton
2. Nauti Intentions – Lora Leigh
3. Hard and Fast – Erin McCarthy
They are all series books and i have read the ones before and cannot wait tell these are releases … it would be wonderful to get them before they come out … less waiting … a wonderful contest and good luck to all
:winks:
I’m happy to see so many interesting books coming out in the next few months. If I were lucky enough to win the drawing, I’d pick:
Virginia Kantra, Sea Lord
Christine Feehan, Burning Wild
Rebecca York, Eternal Moon
I’ve been following these series so it would be lovely to have the books. I’m also delighted to hear that Robin Schone is coming out with a new book. It’s been far too long since her last book!
I would like to win:
Angels Blood – I have been reading so much about this one and it sounds great.
Ghostland – For the title, cover and basic premise.
Dead If I Do – I read the first 2 in the series and loved them.
Its a great contest and nice of Berkley to offer it. They have some wonderful authors and when they release something by a new one I know its bound to be good because they know how to pick them.
wow — those are all great selections! It’s hard to pick only three!
The three that caught my eye and I’d love to win are:
Her Ladyship’s Companion
Dead if I Do
The Accidental Human
Honarable Mentions to:(sorry it was really hard to narrow it down LOL)
With a Twist
Hard & Fast — It’s hard to pass up a book with a killer line like the hot biscut one!
The one thing I would like Berkley to know: I personally can’t stand covers with the men wearing sun glasses. They look stupid — not mysterious or dark/brooding. It’s so cheesy!
I’d like Hard and Fast, Cry for Passion, or With a Twist. (Hm, lots of three-word, middle-word-uncapitalized titles.)
I’d like Sea Lord, Hard & Fast (can’t resist the “hot biscuit” quote), and Cry for Passion. I LUVVV me some ebooks.
1. Ghostland by Jory Strong
2. Cry for Passion by Robin Schone
3. Riding on Instinct – Burton
I intend to buy the Lora leigh anyway. Thanks!
I’d love to win:
Rewriting Monday by Jodi Thomas
Defender by Catherine Mann
Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James

Catherine Mann, Defender
Deidre Martin, With a twist
Kate Noble, Revealed
I would like to win:
Catherine Mann, Defender
Deidre Martin, With a twist
Kate Noble, Revealed
Looks like my previous comment didn’t make it, so apologies if I double-posted. I would like:
Hard and Fast
Defender
With a Twist
Umm… All of them?
Since I have to pick:
Ghostland I’m judging a book by its cover and premise here. Looks interesting.
Sea Lord I’ve enjoyed the series and want to see how it ends.
Hard & Fast Her first book helped save the contemporary; I want to see what she does next.
Thank you!
I would like
White Star
Rewriting Monday
Burning Wild.
I have read and enjoyed Practive Makes Perfect, Angel’s Blood and The Accidental Human.
I’m reading Erin McCarthy’s A Date With The Other Side right now. I finished Bad Boys Online on Saturday. So I am totally glomming onto all of her titles right now (I want to write like Erin McCarthy when I grow up).
So I would love, appreciate, honor and grovel for Hard and Fast by Ms. McCarthy, Rewriting Monday by Jodi Thomas (cover looks like something I would totally pick up) and The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy because the title made me laugh out loud.
And thanks for the wake up. I’ve been trying not to fall asleep at my desk and this was better than the cup of coffee that did nothing.
Ooooh, pretty, pretty books…
I would live to get a copy of any of the following (since I have to choose three):
Defender by Catherine Mann — I’m not sure the cover would draw me in at the store, but the blurb sure did.
Ghostland by Jory Strong — her name keeps popping up and I think I should give her a try. Plus the cover looks interesting.
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan — because I’ve liked others in this world.
Thanks for the chance!
This is a great giveaway. Thanks so much. I would love to win:
Nauti Intentions- Lora Leigh
Riding on Instinct- Jaci Burton
Hard and Fast- Erin McCarthy
I have to agree with the other poster that commented guys on covers with sunglasses look cheesy.
I would like to win:
The Mage by Jean Johnson. Love the cover
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra. Love, love the cover.
Revealed by Kate Noble. I liked her first book and this one sounds cute as well.
Thanks to Berkley and Dear Author for having such a wonderful giveaway. The titles I would love to win are:
Rewriting Monday ~ Jodi Thomas
Hard and Fast ~ Erin McCarthy
Revealed ~ Kate Noble
I picked Jodi Thomas because I love her writing. Erin McCarthy because I’ve read some great reviews of Flat-Out Sexy and Kate Noble because I’d like to try a new to me author.
My picks are:
White Star
Nauti Intentions
Burning Wild
My picks, like my purchasing decisions, are totally based on favorite authors – though I had trouble narrowing those to 3 here! I also thought the cover/title of Practice Makes Perfect looked interesting.
I would like to win the following 3 books: Burning Wild by Christine Feehan, The Mage by Jean Johnson, and Ghostland by Jory Strong. I’ve read all Christine Feehans books and love them and I’ve also enjoyed the Sons of Destiny series by Jean Johnson. Thanks!!
I would like to be in the drawing for these three books
hard and fast
nauti intensions
sea lord
what can I say I like the covers ;)
I would love Ghostland, White Star and Hard and Fast. Love me some biscuits!
The books that I would like to win are: Burning Wild by Christine Feehan, The Mage by Jean Johnston and Eternal Moon by Rebecca York. I have read all of Christine Feehan’s books and can’t wait for the books by her that are coming out this year. I also really like this series by Jean Johnson and Rebecca York. There are some other interesting titles coming out that I will have to check out too.
If chosen, I would like:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Ghostland by Joey Strong
Dead If I do by Tate Hallaway
Thanks for the chance of winning these lovely books! I’ve also taken note of the other releases, and bookmarked them.
I would like:
Cry for Passion
With a Twist
Hard & Fast
Deidre Martin is a gem. Either DA or SB turned me on to Power Play and I loved. Can’t wait to read this one.
Thanks!
Defender, Flat-Out Sexy, and, uh… maybe The Mage?
I’m not very good at telling a book by its cover ;)
If I could win, I would pick:
Ghostland–sounds interesting and great cover
With a Twist–I’ve been meaning to try this author
Hard and Fast–I read the first book in this series and really enjoyed it
Thanks for this contest!
practice makes perfect hard and fast and revealed thanks for the giveaway
great covers – so many to pick from. If by chance my name is pulled from the hat I would love to have Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy, Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh, and Practice makes Perfect by Julie James. thanks
Note to Berkley & Ms. Hwang:
Brilliant! I love the 2-fer option for ereaders that you are offering with Robin Schone’s new release. This is exactly the kind of thing that moves a book from my “wish list” to my “buy now” list!
And if my name is pulled from the hat I would love to read Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy, Cry for Passion by Robin Schone and Defender by Catherine Mann.
Thanks!
Great contest! There were so many good choices that it was hard to narrow it down, but I did it!
Burning Wild – Christine Feehan
Nauti Intentions – Lora Leigh
The Accidental Human – Dakota Cassidy
Thanks!!
Great giveaway!
I’d love to read:
With a Twist
Riding on Instinct
Nauti Intentions
thanks
If I was picked I would love to get:
Her Ladyship’s Companion
Angel’s Blood
Sea Lord
I was wavering over picking The Mage (the title made it sound interesting) but I’m glad MelissaG mentioned it was part of a series. Even if I don’t win I’ll probably eventually pick up some of these. If I would have found out that it was part of a series after I bought it I would have been really mad. I wish covers would have numbers on them when they’re part of a series.
I love when people give out ARC’s. I think it is a great idea. I loved what Nalini did with the ARCs for Angel’s Blood and gave out the ARCs with the condition that the winner write a review and spread the good news. I think more authors could benefit from this, especially for the first book in a series.
Here are my requests:
Tate Halloway: Dead If I Do
Jaci Burton: Riding on Instinct
Jory Strong: Ghostland
Good luck to everyone who enters.
The Mage
Hard and Fast
Ghostland
God Berkley has awesome covers….droolworthy.
I would love to win..
“The Mage” by Jean Johnson
“Burning Wild” By Christine Feehan
“Hard and Fast by Erin Mccarthy
If i could only pick one it would be buring wild…That book looks fab-o!
I was lucky enough to get an ARC of Jory Strong’s new book, “Ghost Land”. What a read! I would encourage everyone to perorder this so that they can get this book as soon as it comes out! It has such a depth of world building and such a wonderful love story. It is different from her other works in that it is more of an urban fiction, but it still has that hot love story that she does so well. I think her long time fans will love this new series and new readers to her work will become hooked like the rest of us! I can’t wait to read the next one!
Sign me up for these three:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
Ghostland Jori Strong
The only general thing I would say is that most of the covers are really good. I really appreciate the lack of mullets and improbable body positioning.
Cool!!!
I’d love to have
Mage by Jean Johnson
Hard and Fast by Erin Mccarthy
Defender by Catherine Mann
The three books I would love to win are:
1) BURNING WILD by Christine Feehan
2) GHOSTLAND by Jory Strong
3) PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT by Julie James
Throwing my hat in for:
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy
Thanks for the opportunity. :-)
Wow, so many nice ones to choose from. One thing I’d like to see changed is the display of the moon on the cover of a paranormal. It seems like it’s the only thing the art dept can come up with for non-humorous paranormals. So either you get a cartoon cover or some version of the moon. (This isn’t just a Berkley thing – I see this poor moon everywhere!)
My top three picks:
1. The Mage
2. The Accidental Human
3. White Star
Thanks!
I’d like to win:
Hard & Fast
Nauti Intentions
The Mage
Rubbing the rabbit’s foot… oh please, oh please, oh please…
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan.
Thank you!
Shay
(who is busy hot gluing another leaf on a three leaf clover)
Here’s my picks: Burning Wild, The Accidental Human and Riding on Instinct.
Thanks for these fascinating arcs. What a great giveaway. I would enjoy Sea Lord,
Ghostland and White Star.
I would love to win:
With a Twist
Hard and Fast
Her Ladyship’s Companion
The first two because (joining the Dear Author and Smart Bitch campaign) I am desperate to read some great well written contemporaries, and the last because I also love a historical.
I’m assuming Berkeley is prepared to send international?
Hi,
wow what a great selection. If you’re posting to the UK I’d love
Nauti Intentions, Ghostland and Riding on Instinct.
Many thanks to Cindy for these great offerings. I love Berkley, great authors!.
Thanks.
Tina
So many great titles coming out, yea for Berkley.
Three on my wish list are:
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Wow. What great books to choose from. It’s hard to pick just 3, i added most of them to my Wish list.
But if I only have to pick 3 they would be:
Dakota Cassidy – Accidental Human
Christine Feehan – Burning Wild
Erin McCarthy – Hard and Fast
My 1st choices were Nalini’s Angel’s Blood but I have already bought it and Nauti Intentions, which I have on order so I didn’t pick either one of those.
Thanks,
Heather
What a neat giveaway (and an awesome lineup)! My three choices:
With a Twist, by Deirdre Martin

1. Hard & Fast (can’t wait to read this one!!!)
2. Riding on Instinct
3. Her Ladyship’s Companion
If I’m chosen, I’d like the following 3 books:
The Mage by Jean Johnson
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Angels’ Blood by Nalini Singh
I am a HUGE fan of Jean Johnson’s, so I’d be so happy to win! Plus, Angels’ Blood has gotten rave reviews, and from the excerpt I read, I know I’ll love it. I’ve also heard really great things about Ghostland, and I’m sure I’d like it too. :P
Dear Berkley,
I know you publish many parnormal titles (not my cup of cake at all), but let me thank you for some amazing contemporary and historical titles I’ve found in your program!
Three books coveted by Yours Truly:
Kate Noble – Revealed
Julie James – Practice Makes Perfect
Evangeline Collins – Her Ladyship’s Companion
Would you ship to Canada?
1. Hard & Fast by Erin McCarthy
2. Burning Wild by Christine Feehan

The list is like a huge box of fresh doughnuts! WHICH TO CHOOSE!!!
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy cause I love humor with my men!
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh cause her guys are just too hot to be real! LOL
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan ok the title said it all! giggles!

Marie
I’d love to own quite a few of this books! It’s difficult to choose, but riding purely on instinct (hur hur), I’m hoping for the following three books:
Her Ladyship’s Companion
Angel's Blood
With a Twist
If you ship to New Zealand I would love the following
Burning Wild (confirmed Christine Feehan junky)
With a Twist (like to try new authors and I’m a fan of the Irish lol)
The third one I was tossing up between two books and have settled on one because I liked the cover.
Dead if I do.
Really great set of offerings. My three would be:
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
but if I could only choose one, definitely Ghostland by Jory Strong. It’s so rare to find urban fantasy novels.
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Dead If I Do by Tate Hallaway
With A Twist by Deidre Martin
I think this is a great promo idea – even if I don’t win the above books, I’ve now got all three authors on my radar, and will be looking for them in the store (for present, future and past releases).
As for suggestions for Berkley – I’m slowly getting my toes wet in the ebook market, but I agree with the commenter above who suggested ebooks be released on the same date as the print version.
What a great way to introduce upcoming titles. I love looking at different covers – amazing what a range of art Berkely has!
If case I’m lucky, I liked the look of:
Rewriting Mondays
Accidental Human
With a Twist
Thanks Berkley!
I’d like to win:
Dead If I Do by Tate Hallaway
The Accidental Human by DAKOTA CASSIDY
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
I would love to read:
Revealed
Her Lady’s Companion
Burning Wild
Although I have hundreds of ebooks, I still love the feel of having the actual book in my hand.
Lora Leigh, Erin McCarthy, and Virginia Kantra.
Thanks!
I would like to win these books if picked,
Dead If I Do by Tate Hallaway
Eternal Moon by Rebecca York
The Accidental Human by DAKOTA CASSIDY
Berkley is putting out some great books.
So hard to choose but I’d love a chance at these three:
Ghostland
Hard and Fast
Eternal Moon
I loved Angels’ Blood and its good to see more planned in the Urban Fantasy Romance category.
My three choices:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy(An author that I have just started reading)
Ghostland by Jory Strong (Author that I have never read)
Cry for Passion by Robin Schone (A favorite author)
Thanks for the great opportunity!
whining here…. I can only pick three, what a great selection!!!
:-)
If chosen, I would like:
1. Burning Wild by C.Feehan
2. Hard and Fast by E.McCarthy
3. Ghostland by J.Strong.
Thanks so much!!!
I would love to win
1. Lora Leigh Nauti Intentions
2. Elizabeth Vaughn White Star
3 Erin McCarthy Hard and Fast
Thanks for the great giveaway, but I have to ask does Cindy have any info about Patience?
What an awesome giveaway! I’m interested in two titles:
Ghostland by Jory Strong (first pick)
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra
I’ve had both of these authors on my wishlist for a while now. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Oh man, I’ve been dying for these three (ESPECIALLY the first one):
— Angels’ Blood
— Sea Lord
— Burning Wild
wow, how am I supposed to only pick 3? You all are slightly evil in your awesomeness, you know that?
Angel’s Blood (Nalini Singh)
Ghostland (Jory Strong)
Hard and Fast (Erin McCarthy)
Cause, while I love some good paranormal/urban fantasy, I also love the funny.
Thanks Cindy and Jane, for the chance.
Ohhhh all the pretty books!
My 3 choices:
Sea Lord – Virginia Kantra
Burning Wild – Christine Feehan
Magic Strikes – Ilona Andrews
(follow up choice if Magic Strikes is not included: Nauti Intentions – Lora Leigh)
Berkley has some HOT titles coming up! I already have Nalini Singh’s Angel’s Blood, which is perfect 10/10 book!
TY for hosting this one = AWESOME!
Wow, you can tell when there’s a contest by the length of the comment thread!
My ARC choices would be CRY FOR PASSION, PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT, and REWRITING MONDAY. HARD AND FAST I will probably read anyway (I read the first one as part of the “save the contemporary” campaign and liked it a lot more than I thought). Most of the others look like paranormal (I’m off those for now) and/or series I haven’t started. Although WITH A TWIST looks really good, too; it’s hard to choose just three.
WOW all these books look great!!!
With a Twist, by Deirdre Martin
Erin McCarthy – Hard and Fast
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
So many choices!!! It was hard to narrow down to three, but I picked:
The Mage – Jean Johnson
Practice Makes Perfect – Julie James
The Accidental Human – Dakota Cassidy
I have been waiting for the next Johnson and Cassidy books for ages. I loved the first Julie James book and can’t wait to read her next one. Of course, there are so many other authors that I can’t wait to read their next book, including most of your list! Thanks for the chance to win!
All the books look great!
My picks are: Hard and Fast, Erin McCarty
With a Twist, Deirdre Martin
Defender, Catherine Mann.
It was hard to pick just three but these look good:
Her Ladyship’s Companion by Evangeline Collins
Rewriting Monday by Jodi Thomas
Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James
I’d like to win these:-
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James.
… please!
So difficult to choose, but I’ll go with:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy (in the mood for contemporaries)
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan (been waiting “forever” for the next in this series)
The Mage by Jean Johnson (heard lots of good things)
Thanks for a great giveaway!
Oooo They all look good, but I’ll go with:
GHOSTLAND
Revealed
White Star
Wow, it’s difficult to choose just three! (I’m a huge fan of quite a few of Berkeley’s series). Okay, my three picks are:
1. The Accidental Human – Dakota Cassidy
2. Angel’s Blood – Nalini Signh
3. Hard and Fast – Erin McCarthy
I’ve read a lot of books by Jory Strong and some show a real talent for story telling, but that new one doesn’t sound like something I’d enjoy. I do enjoy a good laugh, so:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Defender by Cathrine Mann
Dead If I Do by Tate Hallaway
well… I’d love to have the 3 sea-books by Virginia Kantra
(wishful thinking from someone who never really wins anything in such competitions….)
Rewriting Monday – Jodi Thomas
With a Twist – Deidre Martin
Hard and Fast – Erin McCarthy
I could not find any info on either Her Ladyship’s Companion by Evangeline Collins (the site didn’t even recognize the author) or Burning Wild by Christine Feehan. Has there been a name change for the latter book?
Just FYI, I am not attracted to the drawn ‘comic book’ cover. The Evangeline Collins cover, OTOH, made me want to find out if the inside of the book matched the cover…which seemed to promise a historical delight.
I will try and be adventurous in my choices since I have read the other authors and have them pre-ordered anyway.
I would like to request, if I win:
White Star by Elizabeth Vaughn
The Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra
Ghostland by Jory Strong
If chosen, I would like:
Jaci Burton – Riding on Instinct
Erin McCarthy – Hard & Fast
Lora Leigh – Nauti Intentions
Thanks!
So many wonderful books to look forward to :)
I would love to read:
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra
Thanks for a great contest!
A lot of wonderful titles, but these are the three that I would love to have –
* The Accidental Human
* Ghostland
* Sea Lord
I would like to put my name in for:
1. Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
2. Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
3. The Mage by Jean Johnson
I would add that if I think about it Berkley has probably been one of my publishers of late, and many of my auto-buy authors are at Berkley including my absolute favorite, Nalini Singh(already own Angel’s Blood). Christine Feehan is another auto-buy, and both Lora Leigh and Jean Johnson have made me happy with their work of late.
I would like to win these titles:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy (based on recommendations I often hear from others – I’ve never tried her books myself.)
Ghostland by Jory Strong (Like others said, mostly because of the wonderful cover, but I hope this book has no fated mates or something similar.)
Rewriting Monday by Jodi Thomas (I have never tried her, but I like a change of pace once in a while.)
Most of the books seem interesting, one way or the other, and I’m glad that there are quite a few sub genres to choose from. Also, the covers are quite nice. (I can’t help it, I am visually oriented. If the cover sucks, and I don’t find valid reviews and recommendations… That’s a sale lost.)
The book that caught my eye the most was Her Ladyship's Companion by Evangeline Collins. The cover is kinda nice, but I will be waiting for reviews before I buy either of these books.
I would like:
Her Ladyships Companion
Burning Wild
White Star
Nauti Intentions by Lora leigh
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Riding on Instinct by Jaci Burton
I love all three authors and have the other books in each series.
Cool giveaway. My three choices are Ghostland by Jory Strong, Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra and Defender by Catherine Mann.
I would love to win a copy of
Ghostland by Jory Strong
A Vampire’s Claim by Joey W. Hill
Endangered by Kathleen Dante
Dearest Dear Author,
I may be alone out there on the end of my lonely little limb but I eschew paranormals & fantasy and go for the straight contemporaries. So here’s what I would love in my heart of hearts:
1. Catherine Mann’s ‘Defender’ (I’ve read everything else she’s written so I am quivering for this one).
2. Erin McCarthy’s ‘Hard and Fast’ (OK, that cover model can definately come a-callin next time my hubby is on a business trip. Make that a long business trip).
3. Lora Leigh’s ‘Nauti Intentions’ (I recently read the other 3 books in this series and altho the sister was barely mentioned, I am still anxious to see what’s in store for her).
Thx ladies!
Zippy
Lots of great titles! If I win I would love to get:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Her Ladyship’s Companion by Evangeline Collins
Revealed by Kate Noble
Thanks!
Thank you so much DA and Ms Hwang for an amazing contest!
Hmmm..decisions…
– Angels’ Blood
– Hard & Fast
– Practice Makes Perfect
I haven’t read any books by the latter two authors but have heard so many good things about this. And I know and love Nalini’s books and I’m going nuts waiting for the library’s copy of Angels’ Blood :) Oh, and I’m being presumptuous and assuming that if you are able to ship to Australia, Finland, Italy or Scotland then New Zealand will be OK too please? Thank you!
Thanks for this fabulous opportunity.!
Hard and Fast – Erin McCarthy. Cindy Hwang, if you are reading this, please, plesase make sure we get to hear Ryder and Suzanne’s story. Hearing about them in Flat Out Sexy really had me wanting to find out a lot more about them.
With A Twist – Deirdre Martin
Nauti Intentions – Lora Leigh
I would love to win these,
Hard and Fast -Erin McCarthy
Burning Wild- Christine Feehan
Nauti Intentions- Lora Leigh
Ireally liked the covers on most. The catoonish covers just don’t do it.
I think that the cover art and blurbs should set the stage for a book.
Make you want to step inside and read.Her Ladyships Companion was
very eye catching.
Ladyship’s companion
GHOSTLAND
Dead if I do
How exciting!
Hey!
My top three pics are:
1. Practice Makes Perfect
2. Defender
3. Burning Wild
Thanks for the opportunity!
Before anything else, I was able to read Nalini Singh’s Angels’ Blood and I highly recommend it. The story was so addicting and the characters were just awesome.
Now on to this great contest. Thanks for the opportunity and all of these titles look great. It was hard to choose but I was finally able to narrow it down to:
Ghost Town
White Stars
Her Ladyship’s Companion.
Once again, thanks for the contest and this has really added to my reading list for 2009!
Thanks for the contest. My book choices are:
“Defender” by Catherine Mann
“Revealed” by Kate Noble
“Nauti Intentions” by Lora Leigh
Hard and Fast Erin M
With a Twist Deirde M
Her Ladyship Companion E Collins
Also I just wanted to let everyone know, even though it’s not on the list, I loved Christine Blevins first book and I was really happy to see that you all have a new one by her coming out! That made my day. Thanks for doing this.
Thanks for the contest– Great selection! It was a bit hard to narrow it down, but I did it! And, surprise surprise (Not!), I picked all paranormals that I’ve been DYING to read (continuations of series I already love!):
1. Eternal Moon by Rebecca York
2. Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
3. The Mage by Jean Johnson
Thanks for the contest!! Woot! haha well three books for me would be
The Mage by Jean Johnson
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Angel’s Blood by Nalini Singh
Wow – what a great bunch of books! The three books I would like the most are:
GHOSTLAND by Jory Strong
WHITE STAR by Elizabeth Vaughn
REWRITING MONDAY by Jodi Thomas
The only thing I’d like to tell Berkley is thanks for such a great contest!
Here are the 3 books I would pick:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
These are 3 of my very favorite authors. For Berkley – I love discovering new paranormal stories and authors. Please keep them coming!
there are a lot of great books coming out soon. From Berkley I am looking forward to many but these are my top three. Great contest, thanks.
Ghostland
Hard and Fast
Angel’s Blood
Hard & Fast, With a Twist & Burning Wild – because I love all those authors, and the combo of titles cracks me up :)
Oooh! Free books.
These are my choices if I get picked:
1. Angels’ Blood – Because I just read the library’s copy and it was so amazing that I want it for my book shelf. I declare this book “Book Shelf Worthy” which is a rare feat in my household.
2. Ghostland – since the storyline is a little different and I love the cover. Plus if Jory use to write for Ellora’s Cave, this might be a little spicy without having to be hosed down.
3. Her Ladyship’s Companion – I have no idea why I put this 3rd over other choices. The cover looked good but I usually rip off steamy covers anyway since I have young children in the house.
Note: please have Singh start pumping out some more books. I can’t wait to see how she develops as a writer.
My pics are
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy
White Star by Elizabeth Vaughan
Rewriting Monday by Jodi Thomas
Thanks for the contest!
~ Popin
I have been a long time reader and member of Robin Schone’s Group. I also read/review eBooks for JERR. I will take anything but would especially like Robin’s new book or Jory Strong’s.
White Star, Elizabeth Vaughan
Nauti Intentions, Lora Leigh
Angels Blood, Nalini Singh
I liked Vaughan and Singh’s other books, and I own two of the Nauti books that I have yet to read. Nothing like hoarding to make you start a series. I don’t like to wait between books.
Squee, givaways!
Jory Strong, Ghostland: Cindy, you’re a gem for signing Jory! I’ve never met a Jory book I didn’t love and I’m so excited she’s been picked up by a NY publisher. She and her writing absolutely deserve it.
Lora Leigh, Nauti Intentions: Lora is a dear and I love her books.
Erin McCarthy, Hard and Fast: I’m not generally a fan of contemporaries (or Nascar), but after hearing about this series here and at SBTB, I’m interested.
Berkley is by far one of my favorite publishers. I adore paranormal romance that is steamy, well written, and has fantastic characters, and they are brilliant at publishing great authors of it. I think that a majority of my favorite authors are at Berkley, actually. Keep doing what you’re doing, Cindy!
Hooray for giveaways! I’m most interested in:
Erin McCarthy, Hard and Fast
Robin Schone, Cry for Passion
Catherine Mann, Defender
Angels Blood, Nalini Singh
Rebecca York, Eternal Moon
Hard and Fast- Erin McCarthy
Wow, they all sound great!
I love love Erin McCarthy and have the first book in the series on my tbr pile.
I have also put Catherine Mann’s book on my tbb list and will be looking for the Dakota Cassidy book that is out.
Berkley does have a great line up of authors!
This is a great giveaway! Thank you.
I’d love to win Burning Wild by Christine Feehan, Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh, and Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy.
Wow, Awesome Contest.
Would love to read:
With a Twist – Deirdre Martin
Hard and Fast – Erin McCarthy
Rewriting Monday – Jodi Thomas
Robin Schone’s Cry For Passion sounds very intriguing and I love novels set in Victorian or Regency periods that have all these strict rules that are ready to be broken.
Erin McCarthy’s Hard And Fast sounds like a fun and exciting read that will bring action and romance for the audience.
Virgina Kantra’s Sea Lord sounds VERY interesting b/c she uses selkies instead of other overused paranormal creatures. Plus I’m a huge sucker for paranormal reads.
HI,
I would like to win:
1. Defender extremely sexy cover
2. Ghostland – Looks terrific
3. Sea Lord – the cover captivates me
This is an awesome contest! I’d love to win: Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy, Ghostland by Jory Strong, and With a Twist by Deirdre Martin.
In this day and times, these giveaways are awesomely welcome! It’s so hard to choose, so I’ll list down five that caught my eye. ;p I hope that doesn’t disqualify me. LOL
HARD AND FAST
THE MAGE
GHOSTLAND
ANGELS’ BLOOD
HER LADYSHIP’S COMPANION
would love to win
Naughty Intentions by Lora Leigh
Ghostland by Jory Srong
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy
I finished Angel’s Blood today and it absolutly rocked. Very nice series and al I can is I want some more please, prettly please.

Erin McCarthy ~ Hard & Fast – sorry that one line hooked me!
Lora Leigh ~ Nauti Intentions
Jory Strong ~ Ghostland – I’ve heard alot of people talk about her so this would be a cool way to see if she’s as good as they say :)
As for Ms Hwang, I gotta hand it to ya, most of the books that I read seem to have your name mentioned time and again. You know what you’re doing ;)
Angels Blood by Nalini Sighn –
Burning Wild – Christine Feehan –
GhostLand – Jory Strong.
I would love to read these dearly. As a full time mom of two little boys and the day care provider of two more toddlers reading is my escape. I would dearly love to have the opportunity to have these in my paws uh, hands. Thank you Berkly Books. What a Treat!

Holy cow. I had no idea that Robin Schone is back.

Berkley really seems to do a superior job of editing. Authors that have written for other houses in the past seem to have a stronger voice when at Berkley.
Contest wise (and otherwise) bring back the contemporary!

So my first three choices are:
1 Practice Makes Perfect-J.James
2 Defender C. Mann

(I like the cover)
Angel’s Blood by Singh
(not much into vamps but loved psy-changling series so i am curious to see NS’s take on the bloodsuckers)
oh man it is hard to pick just 3. I would go with Hard and Fast, Dead if I Do, and Ghostland. I’ve been waiting for these 3 forever it seems like.
erin mccarthy- hard and fast
lora leigh- nauti intentions
christine feehan- burning wild
It was really hard to choose just three.
Seriously, how fricking awesome are those covers. I love all of them but especially Ghostland and Sea Lord. I don’t know who the artists were but they killed those covers.

1. Cry For Passion by Robin Schone (of course)
2. Ghostland by Jory Strong
3. With A Twist by Deirdre Martin
Thanks for the opportunity DA! You guys rock!
This it tough! My picks…

Thanks so much!
Wow! This is exciting! My three choices are as follows:
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
Ghostland by Jory Strong
I really would like to see Berkley offer books in an eBook format. I read so much and travel a great deal for work. It is much easier to load twenty books on my eReader than to pack and tote 20 paperbacks or hardback novels with me. As a consumer, I would purchase more books from Berkley in an eFormat and expand my interest to additional authors.
Wow, what a great giveaway – there are so many books by authors I really like and some, by authors I don’t know seem really intriguing. A wealth of choice, but, I’d love to receive the books by:
Virginia Kantra, Julie James and Erin McCarthy.
If I am chosen, I would love to have:
1. Riding on Instinct
2. Hard and Fast
3. Rewriting Monday.
They all sound right up my alley.
My picks…
Burning Wild – Christine Feehan
Cry for Passion – Robin Schone
The Mage – Jean Johnson
Thanks!
Wow! It’s so generous that you’ve got so many books that your giving away.
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
The Accidental Human by Dakota Cassidy
If Angel’s Blood is one in the selection that is being offered then I would like to have that one in place of The Accidental Human.
So will you announce the winners, what books they got, and when you make the selection?
-Jessica
I think it is tres generous of all involved to offer these books up. And let’s face it, with the way things are and have been going, who can’t use not only free books but the pick me up that any/all books do/will bring. Cheers to that! :)

Ooo! Book contest!
I’d love:
Ghostland (love the cover and the description sold me)
Angel’s Blood

I was a little confused about if our 3 choices had to come from the 17 books in the graphic, or if we could include a choice from the descriptions. So if Angel’s Blood doesn’t count, I’d swap in Hard and Fast.
*fingers crossed*
It was really hard to choose only 3, but here’s my best shot:
Defender by Catherine Mann
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Thanks! Good luck to all.
Hope I’m not too late:
Burning Wild (Christine Feehan)
Riding on Instinct (Jaci Burton)
White Star (Elizabeth Vaughn)
If shipping to Finland is possible:
Angels’ Blood by Nalini Singh
Ghostland by Jory Strong
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
Angel’s Blood and Ghostland have been on my to read list since I first heard about them, so those would be great.
With a Twist would be my third choice because I love Deidre Martin and I’m a sucker for anything Irish.
It’s so hard to choose, but the three I’d like to win are:
Hard and Fast by Erin McCarthy
Burning Wild by Christine Feehan
Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
Berkley and Cindy Hwang have again shown that they are publishers who take every opportunity to listen to what their readers have to say. This giveaway is a great idea to generate interest in upcoming books and for them to guage what really gets their audience ticking (you really have to think hard to pick three books out of that list! But the truth is if we were to have to buy the books … we are likely to choose around three).
I think Berkley is also on its way to build audience loyalty, to the publishing house for consistently choosing some of the best authors in the genre out there. There is a lot of choice out there, and I don’t know if I am the only one or if most people will flick their eyes to see who published a book, before I even read the blurb!
Listing out all their new titles like this really raises awareness that they have something for everyone. I’m impressed, eventhough I am partial to paranormal.
Their cover art is exceptional and moving fast away from the cheesy covers that have plagued romance novels and prevented them from being taken out into public (seriously, the publishers who created an ‘adult cover’ for Harry Potter knew what they were about).
Regarding the paranormal titles that Berkley has out there, I have to first qualify that I am traditionally more a fantasy/sci-fi reader, who has been driven through sheer desperation to search for fresh world building and views outside of that genre. My search has seen me foraging in YA territory (some of the best and most original fantasy is in this category) and more recently, I’ve been giving paranormal romance a go. I did read historical romances when I was younger, but eventually got bored by the eternal sameness.
I am perhaps a little less impressed by the current level of the world building in romance novels than the average. I read reviews praising the world building to the skies and I am often still dissatisfied when I actually do read the books. I think it still has quite a way to go before it reaches the levels seen in the pure fantasy/sci-fi genre. I suppose that is inevitable if a book is classed as romance – and I am aware there is a backlash from readers who think the romance is sacrificed for world building.
I am interested to see the publishers pushing sub-genres like the two urban fantasy titles mentioned here. This is something I will be watching with interest. Another neglected sub-genre is sci-fi or novels emphasising technology levels. There is a lot out there currently about shape-shifters, and other mythical creatures which I do enjoy, but technology can be as/more fascinating as elves or people turning into tigers. Would love to see someone make it sexy! ;P Sci-fi is often targeted at a male audience (the romance is often very dry and yawn) and I am sure geek girls out there would love to read about technology and great love stories against that setting.
Another thought is that a fantasy of epic proportions might be nice … you know, sort of like what they used to do with medieval romances, only populated with otherworldly creatures, where you get a sense of the length and breadth of the created world. But again, perhaps a romance novel (which focusses on the very intimate relationship between two people) is not the right vehicle for that. The series that comes to mind is Jaqueline Carey’s Kushiel books, but then, that is classed as fantasy (even though there is some pretty hot sex in there).
Another gripe I have about the current romances out there – what’s with the grisly murders, gore, serial killers and mental cases out there? In romance novels no less. I know the whole death heightens awareness of life (a.k.a. hot sex) connection, but I find it hard to avoid the blood splatters on the wall as I navigate in the bucolic waters of romance. It really spoils it for me (it is one of the reasons why I never bought into the Psy/Changeling books, though I thought that was a sure ringer for me). I begin to think that women are far more violent and bloodthirsty than men (considering the kinds of death I have to read in sci-fi/fantasy – are are present but they are not so … gross).
Anyway, enough of me yammering on, my three choices:
#1 Ghostland – Jory Strong (the cover is so good, I’m not entirely certain I was not influenced by it; it reminds me of Neil Gaiman’s urban fantasy ‘Neverwhere’)
#2 The Mage – Jean Johnson
#3 Sea Lord – Virginia Kantra
I will probably also read Angels’ Blood, the excerpt on the author’s website looked very good and quite different from the Psy/Changeling books, though it did make me think of Anita Blake and Sharon Shinn’s ‘Archangel’.
Angel’s Blood – Nalini Singh
Ghostland – Jory Strong
Defender – Catherine Mann
I’m with Chenebe, I too come from a fantasy/Sci-fi reading background, read historical got a bit board, found paranormals but wish the world building was a little deeper.
Saying that though, I really like the Psy/Changling series
Catherine Mann, Erin McCarthy, Jodi Thomas.
Wow, what a selection.
1. Lora Leigh’s Nauti Intentions, because, hey, who can resist any of Lora’s super alpha heroes? :) Seriously can’t wait for Alex’s story!
2. Erin McCarthy’s Hard and Fast. She always has the fantastic ability to make her readers laugh and fall in love with everyone of her books.
3. Christine Feehan’s Burning Wild. Read the excerpt at the end of Murder Game and I’m excited to see how this book will pan out.
It looks like lots of good books coming out this spring.
My choices:
Ghostland by Jory Strong
White Star by Elizabeth Vaughan
Sea Lord by Virginia Kantra

Nauti Intentions by Lora Leigh
