#FreebieFriday FOR LOVE OR VENGEANCE #Giveaway

Good morning and Happy Friday! It’s #FreebieFriday and today I’m offering the first 15 people who e-mail me at caridadpineiro at gmail dot com an ARC of FOR LOVE OR VENGEANCE! I’ve just re-released this book which is #12 in The Calling is Reborn Vampire Novel series.

For those who haven’t read any stories in the series, don’t worry. These stories standalone although you will see characters from other books and know what’s happening in their lives. I don’t know about you, but I just love finding out what happens to people whose stories I’ve read. I like to know that the happily-ever-after continues past the first book!

Here is a blurb for FOR LOVE OR VENGEANCE:

What’s a goddess to do when her job is to mete out justice?

FBI Agent Helene Alexander is Nemesis, the Goddess of Vengeance and she has a job to do or her days on Earth as a goddess may come to an end. To accomplish her mission, she has lived with a ends-justify-the-means attitude for centuries. That is until her sexy new partner Miguel Sanchez has her wondering what it would be like to be more human for a change.

He’s carrying the weight of guilt for a death that could have been prevented . . .

FBI Agent Miguel Sanchez watched an innocent bystander get caught in deadly crossfire and so he knows what can happen if his partner should get careless with her quest for justice. Her cannot tolerate her harsh ways and brash attitude, but it’s hard to ignore how hot she is and the soft center he sees beneath her hard façade.

A dangerous serial killer will test their newfound love and risk their lives . . .

When the “Broadway Butcher” strikes again, Helene and Miguel are pulled into an investigation that will force them to face their greatest fears and their beliefs about finding justice for the killers victims. In a battle for life and death, Helene will have to choose between exacting justice or saving the life of the man she loves.

#ThrowbackThursday Romance Writers of America Conference #NYC #RWA2015

OMG, I have so much to get done before this year’s RWA National Conference! Luckily it’s in New York City which gives me a little bit more leeway since the travel issue is minimal. I am so looking forward to the conference, hanging out with long distance friends and hopefully meeting some of you at the Literacy book signing or at the conference if you’ll be attending.

The 2015 “Readers for Life” Literacy Autographing will be on Wednesday, July 22, from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. at the New York Marriott Marquis
in the Westside Ballroom. If you want to line up early, head to the Broadway Ballroom and RWA staff will take you down to the Westside Ballroom when it’s time for the signing. You can find out more about the signing at the RWA Website.

I’m doing three workshops at the conference! One is with my Write to Success buddies where I’ll be discussing some legal aspect of doing box sets. Another one is on Box Sets and I’ll be talking about memes, videos and other ways to promo. Last, but definitely not least, I’ll be doing a workshop with my awesome buddy Nisha Sharma on getting organized. Nisha is AMAZING at getting organized.

Of course, in addition to the book signings and workshops, I am looking forward to the mixers and parties! Today’s Throwback Thursday is to the 2011 RWA Conference in NYC and my fab dancing shoes. I wore these to the Harlequin Black and White Ball in the Waldorf Astoria so I could dance the night away. I definitely plan on wearing them again to the conference!

#TeaserTuesday FIGHT THE SHADOWS Free Read

FighttheShadowsI’m really excited to be part of the launch of CJ Lyons Shadow Ops Kindle World. It was really interesting to jump into this world of covert ops and write a fast-paced suspense and emotional romance.

Today’s teaser is a sexy encounter between Warrant Officer Patricia Morales and Staff Sergeant Rick Sanchez, two of the newest members of the Special Threats Response team that is the heart of the Shadow Ops world.

Blurb

He had never given up hope of finding his wife’s killers . . .

Marine Staff Sergeant Rick Sanchez had survived two tours of duty and returned home to join the New York City Police Department. He’d found something besides his calling at the Police Academy: he found the love of his life. When his wife is killed three years later by gang thugs, Rick feels betrayed by the police department that calls it a drug deal gone bad and claims his wife was dirty. He quits the force and vows to get to the truth, but he doesn’t foresee the danger coming at him from both the street gang and a pint-sized warrior who threatens to steal his heart again.

She had clawed her way out of the barrio and hated being drawn back into that life . . .

Patricia Morales had worked hard to build a better life for herself outside the crime-ridden section of New York City where her family had settled after leaving Honduras. It wasn’t easy, especially after her father was killed in a car accident. But she’d joined the National Guard and found a way to a better life for her family. Deployed as part of Joint Task Force Empire Shield, she hopes to one day help her half-brother out of the gang life. When her half- criminal activities may involve a possible terrorist threat, Patricia must face her past and deal with her attraction to a man determined to send her half-brother to jail for a murder he didn’t commit.

Happy 4th of July & New Releases

Happy Independence Day!

I don’t know about you, but it seems to me that summer is just flying by! It’s already July and I’m looking forward to one of my most favorite days, the 4th of July. I love going to the Jersey Shore to watch the parade and see all the fireworks shows plus get together with friends for a barbecue to celebrate Independence Day. I hope you all have nice plans for the 4th of July as well. Here’s a photo of fireworks from last year’s 4th of July!

#TeaserTuesday TAMING THE BACHELOR

Taming the BachelorGood morning! I hope you all had a fabulous Monday. Today’s Teaser is from TAMING THE BACHELOR which is part of the JERSEY GIRLS Contemporary Romance Box Set. I love this story because (1) I am such a science geek like Daisy, (2) Brad is a sexy surfer dude and (3) the story is set on the Jersey Shore! I hope you’ll enjoy the story as well.

Teaser

Brad Evans doesn’t understand why a woman like Daisy Ramos would be interested in a guy like him. . .

She’s the first woman who’s ever made him consider giving up his beloved bachelorhood, but falling for her presents all kinds of problems. For starters, she’s one of his partners in a successful biotech company. But worse, she’s the kind of woman who will drive a man to distraction and Brad’s not sure he can risk losing his focus or his heart to Daisy. But he can’t ignore that whenever she walks into a room, he wishes things could be different between them.

Daisy doesn’t believe that a confirmed bachelor and beach dude like Brad will ever walk down the aisle . . .

Especially not with a woman like her. She’s known Brad for years and knows he’s never serious about anything. He flits from one woman to another and spends his free time playing volleyball on the beach. He’s not a forever kind of guy and her determined workaholic mind warns her that he’s absolutely the wrong man for her, but her heart says something else.
