Yes, ladies and germs, it’s that time — time to give away TWO HARD BITTEN<\/a> ARCs!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, I’ll give away two, signed Advanced Readers Copies of HARD BITTEN, the fourth book in the Chicagoland Vampires series, on February 14, 2011. HARD BITTEN will be released on May 3, 2011.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

And now, the rules: To enter, leave a comment on this page (no emails, please) identifying your favorite Chicagoland Vampires character.<\/strong> <\/div>\n
