PRINCE OF SHADOWS CONTEST:

And the winner is...Julie Nielsen of Tasmania won my May/June newsletter contest and received a copy of Susan Krinard's "Prince of Shadows". Congratulations Julie and hope you enjoy your book!

FLAMES PAST IN PRINT!

Several months earlier than expected...at least earlier than I was expecting. But then that's the way the ball bounces in publishing land—either slow as molasses or fast as the-speed-of-greased-lightning (how's that for mixed metaphors). But for all of you who just couldn't wait to get your hot little hands on a trade paperback edition of my paranormal romance, FLAMES PAST, it's now available from Awe-Struck E-Books http://www.awe-struck.net and for a LIMITED time it will be available for 25% off the regular price! Details below:

What people are saying about FLAMES PAST...

"...Flames Past is a rich, emotional novel. True to life characters, with realistic dialogue and emotions, Ms. McKeever draws you into Echo's world, her reunion with Sean, and his realization of the betrayals of the past, and the knowledge of his son.

Four stars to the excellent quality, and style of Flames Past, and to the writer who drew me in, despite the fact it was well past my bedtime, and kept me up far later than I intended. From beginning to end, through each chapter, it's a story you can't lay down, and won't want to."
-- Shadoe, 4**** for Romancing The Web Reviews

"...Gracie C. McKeever has a distinctive, darkly humorous voice that adds spice to the natural dialogue and smooth narration in this novel..."
-- Mayra Calvani, for eBook Reviews Weekly

"...Echo and Sean are two great characters. Their emotions and actions ring true.
The paranormal activity is described in such a way that it is very believable. I expect to read more and more of Ms. McKeever's books. In this day and age, having the hero be a firefighter is wonderful. Could it be that Ms. McKeever also has a touch of ESP?"
-- Rita Hyatt of Romance Club Review Group
