Giveaway: Shady Lady - Ann Aguirre

Wow! Time Flies! It's week # 11 of my 16 weeks of giveaways to celebrate the the upcoming US release of book 2  The Cold Kiss of Death (out 26th April), and the UK release of book 3 The Bitter Seed of Magic (Out Now and available from The Book Depository with Free WorldWide Del) *insert shameless self-promo plug* *g* Giveaway now closed!

BIG THANKS again to everyone who's bought it! You all Rock!.  And Hello and Welcome to all you new blog visitors and followers, and thanks to everyone for joining in with the celebrations.

So this week's giveaway is for
Shady Lady: Corine Solomon # 3 (US) (UK)
by the fabulous (SuperWriter*!) Ann Aguirre.

Here's the blurb from Amazon

I'd spent my whole life settling, trying not to attract attention, and generally doing whatever it took to keep other people happy. I didn't want to do that again. Not when I was finally comfortable in my own skin. Sure, there were certain challenges, like a drug lord who wanted me dead, and the fact that I owed a demon a debt that he could call due at any moment. But everybody's got problems, right?

Whenever Corine Solomon touches an object, she immediately knows its history. But her own future concerns her more and more. Now back in Mexico, she's running her pawnshop and trying to get a handle on her strange new powers, for she might need them. And soon.

Then former ally Kel Ferguson walks through her door. Heavily muscled and tattooed, Kel looks like a convict but calls himself a holy warrior. This time, he carries a warning for Corine: the Montoya cartel is coming for her--but they don't just pack automatic weapons. The Montoyas use warlocks, shamans, voodoo priests--anything to terminate trouble. And Corine has become enemy number one...

Ooh! I can't wait! And there's not long to go now, as Shady Lady releases in the US on the 5th April, and the UKon the 12th May!

Now there's three things I think of when it comes to the Corine books, and they are Butch, the Blond Chihuahua, Mexico, and cocktails! And the last two together made me think of holidays! Yay!

Now Mexico is one place I'd love to visit for a holiday! And if you want a chance to win a copy of Shady Lady, then please leave me a comment telling me your favourite place for a holiday, either one you've been to, or one you'd like to go to.

*SuperWriter Ann writes urban fantasy (the 'awesome and often spine-chilling' Corine Solomon series), romantic science fiction (the 'OMG wonderful, and wait till you read Aftermath: Ann is a brilliant, evil, character torturing, author' Jax series), apocalyptic paranormal romance (the 'so looking forward to these' Ellen Connor books with Carrie Lofty), paranormal romantic suspense 'with swoonworthy heros'(as Ava Gray), and post-apocalyptic dystopian young adult fiction: Enclave. 'You will need to read about Deuce and Fade, they will blow you away'!Yep, I'm a big fan of Ms. Aguirre's writing . . . in case you hadn't noticed *g*.

Please note: My usual blog policy is that I try to reply to all comments on the blog, but for ease of admin I won't be replying to any comments made on any of the giveaway posts during the 16 weeks. Sorry, but it makes it much harder to sort out the winner. However I do read and enjoy all the comments, and will, of course, continue to reply to comments on any other post, so if you have a question for me, leave it on one of those, thank you :-)
