Evernight Publishing Birthday Blog Hop



Welcome to the Evernight Publishing birthday blog hop!

Evernight Publishing opened its doors two years ago. In those two years we’ve signed over one hundred and sixty authors and published over three hundred books. From paranormal to contemporary, we’ve had more best sellers than we can count and made thousands of people smile, sigh and gasp. So, as a thank you to all our readers and everyone who has supported us, we’re holding this blog hop and we have a whole lot of prizes to offer you.

Here's how it works... the more blogs you hop to (shown below) the more chance you have of winning prizes. Each author on the hop is offering a prize and Evernight is offering the following grand prizes, a Kindle, a $100 Amazon gift certificate, two Evernight swag bags (which includes a tote, a tee, vouchers, a mug and other coolness) and a personalized Facebook banner. To be in with a chance of winning the author prize simply follow the blog you're visiting and leave a comment which includes your email address. Each entry on each blog is then counted towards the grand prize draw. The more entries you have, the better your chance of winning a grand prize! You also get extra points for liking the Evernight Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/#!/evernightpublishing. Just make sure you let us know in the comments that you've done so.

Good luck and happy hopping!

Hello everyone, I'm Doris and welcome to my blog. I am very excited to be part of this blog hop, because I had just joined the Evernight family, when last year's hop was going on, so didn't manage to take part. I was a brand new and rather clueless author, when Evernight gave me a chance, publishing my Debut Novel Lure Of The Blood back in November 2011. I'm sure I floated on cloud nine for weeks.

I am still floating to be honest, because ours has been a very successful partnership. I signed my 14th contract with Evernight only last week. Not bad for a year.

*big grin*

I have two releases with Evernight this month, and both involve Halloween and some rather delicious vampires.



My story in Just Vamps is called Living The Dream.



Everyone knows that happy ever afters only happen in fairy tales. Real life is cruel and painful. Bianca may wish for the two hunks in the shadows to notice her, but that doesn't mean it's going to happen—until Halloween that is.

When Sister Maria insists that Bernhard and Archie escort Bianca home, the events that follow can only have been a dream. The hottest sex she's ever had cannot account for the changes Bianca sees in the mirror. Vampires aren’t real, right?

Just Vamps releases October 17th





My Story in The Eclipse Of The Blood Moon is called Destined Lovers


When the blood moon coincides with Halloween, the forces of darkness unite to wreak their evil spells. Will this All Hallows Eve bring joy or sorrow?
Curses abound and destiny calls, as vampire meets human, devils atone to the moon, an angel takes human form to protect the gypsy girl he loves, shifters hunt their mate on land protected by a powerful white witch, and a black widow hunts her prey in human form.
Is love enough to break the cycle? Or is all lost under the orange glow of the menacing sphere in the sky?


This releases October 19th

For the hop I am giving away three copies of my back list. Please click HERE to check them out or click on the My Books Tab on the top of the page.

Just let me know in the comments which one you would like and why, and I will pick three winners at random once the hop is over.

In addition check out the ARe 50% sale of all Evernight books

You will find my page here.

  1. I am certainly excited to start the Birthday Blog hop, I certainly took advantage of the .99 amazon and ARe sale, I picked up 2 of your books! I would love to add your Goldie and Her Bears to my TBR list, I'm already following you on FB and Twitter (and I had already liked the Evernight FB page previously under Evita's Reads) ;)

    Doris, you are a new-to-me author, so I don't have a clue as to which books I would like should I win your draw. I'll need to think on that for awhile! LOL

    I'd be very happy to get "Virgin Behaving Badly Anthology".

    I liked the blurb of "Little Miss Frigid Knickers" + I always pick anthologies when I can, because they are the best to discover some wonderful new for me writers.

    Wish Your new releases to become bestsellers,

    Love the blurbs. If I am chosen, I would like Lure of the Blood please. Well, there are 2 reasons actually, one because it was your first book with them and two because who doesn't enjoy a sexy vampire and alpha wolf?
    Thank you for the opportunity to read another of your books.
