What makes romance–and win free books!
Posted by Leah under Ebooks, free stuff, General interest, Writing & Editing1 Comment
Commenters over on the Casablanca author blog have a chance to win some May releases today–WICKEDLY CHARMING by Kristine Grayson and SEALED FOREVER by Mary Margret Daughtridge. All you have to do is let us know what says romance to you.
When editing I often find it’s the little things, the tender moments that would have little meaning to anyone outside these characters, that really make my heart melt and the story resonate long after I’m done reading. Check out more here.
And we have an amazing deal on our upcoming SINS OF THE HOUSE OF BORGIA by Sarah Bower–just $2.99 when you preorder the ebook, then going up to $9.99 after March 1. List price of the print edition is $14.99. Available at B&N, Amazon, and wherever ebooks are sold.
If you haven’t yet seen the trailer for the new Borgia series on Showtime, check it out below.

Free ebook – two days left!
Posted by Leah under Ebooks, free stuff | Tags: Joy Preble, paranormal, YA |[2] Comments
Because there haven’t been enough blizzards in NYC this winter, I thought it’d be a good idea to travel to Chicago this week. We did get in a great meeting with the great team at Levy, the folks who help get books into Target and Wal-Mart, before the snow started flying. Truly, there’s nowhere we won’t go–even into the middle of a historic blizzard–to get books into people’s hands. 
Heck, we’ll even give away books for free. This month sees the release of on of our YA line’s most hotly anticipated sequel, HAUNTED by Joy Preble. A ghostly Russian czarina, a menacing mermaid, and a girl torn between her hot lifeguard boyfriend and the immortal warrior teaching her about powers she didn’t think were possible–HAUNTED is out in bookstores now. And DREAMING ANASTASIA, the first of the series, is currently available as a free ebook. You can find it wherever ebooks are sold in any format you prefer.

Feel as though you’re constantly lending out books and not getting them back? Make sure your friend knows that book belongs to you with these adorable free book plates from ImageZoo.
You can either print them on label paper and stick ‘em on. Or print on regular paper and paste ‘em in. Or if–like me–you don’t dare permanently alter the book (gasp!), use a paperclip. Your friend can end up using it as a book mark, but at least she’ll still know that book is yours.

Snow + free books = good Valentine’s
Posted by Leah under free stuff, News | Tags: Caroline Fyffe, debuts, historicals, Leanna Renee Hieber, Rose Lerner |[2] Comments
Unlike many on the East Coast pummeled by the latest nor’easter, New York City didn’t have it too bad–about 8 inches. Just enough to give the city that beautiful pristine coating…for a few hours.
But that doesn’t mean I can’t use “Bizzard 2010″ as a great excuse to hole up and read a lot this weekend. If you’re looking for some recommendations for fresh voices, check out the current poll for best historical debut at The Season. Both Caroline Fyffe and Leanna Renee Hieber made the list!
Speaking of great debuts, Rose Lerner is giving away a copies of the absoultely amazing historical IN FOR A PENNY. Get the scoop on where to enter at her blog. If you’re a fan of Sherry Thomas, Lisa Kleypas, Georgette Heyer and any of the Regency greats, you will not want to miss this book.

Sandra Ruttan deftly combines chilling cases and riveting personal relationships to hold readers “spellbound,” as Clive Cussler notes. In fact, we here at Dorchester absolutely adore her books. Everyone on staff rushes for the copies as soon as they come in because we can’t wait to find out what will happen next for Ashlyn Hart, Craig Nolan, and their partner, known only as Tain.
We love the series so much, we want you to read the first book, WHAT BURNS WITHIN, for free. Just click on the “Browse” button above to get started. And if you want to share with friends and have the widget on your MySpace page, Facebook site or blog, click the “Get This” button and copy and paste the code–it’s that easy.
“Ruttan is talented in the way that a natural musician is talented, making all the notes seem effortless.” —Crimespree Magazine
“What Burns Within is a stunning book. Not only is this the start of a great series, but more importantly it’s the start of a long and successful career. Sandra Ruttan is one to watch.” —Brian Lindenmuth, Mystery BookSpot

We’re all in super huge anticipation of C.L. Wilson’s QUEEN OF SONG AND SOULS coming out on Tuesday. In fact, there’s a special widget on the right side of the Dorchester home page with links to an exclusive deleted scene, excerpt, and more.
Help spread the love, and one winner will receive a whole set of the New York Times best-selling Tairen Soul series. Everyone who plays will get some kind of prize. Here’s how:
- 1. Visit the Dorchester website
- 2. Click the Share button at the bottom of the widget and post it to your blog, your Facebook, your MySpace, etc., or use the embed code to post to your own site.
- 3. Email me (lhulten @ dorchesterpub.com – no spaces) the links with “C.L. Wilson widget” in the subject. For every link of a different site, you’ll get one entry in the grand prize drawing for the four Tairen Soul books: LORD OF THE FADING LANDS, LADY OF LIGHT AND SHADOW, KING OF SWORD AND SKY, and QUEEN OF SONG AND SOULS.
- Be on the lookout for a return email with a thank-you prize for participating.
- All links must be sent by Tuesday, 10/27 by 3 p.m. EST.
Unfortunately the widget does not work on WordPress blogs, which don’t support Flash. However, Blogger, Live Journal and most others are no problem. If you’re blogging on WP, send me a link to this contest, and I’ll still enter you in the drawing.
