Galactic Holiday - Out of This World + Giveaway!

I'm delighted to welcome my good friend Anna Hackett today as part of her blog tour for her new sci-fi release, Winter Fusion, which is also a part of the Carina Press anthology A Galactic Holiday.  Don't forget to enter the contest at the bottom of the post to be in with the chance of winning some fab prizes!

Anna's Bio:

Anna Hacektt Mining Engineer by day and writer the rest of the time, Anna Hackett grew up an avid reader with no dreams of being a writer. Her career in mining has taken her all around the world and sparked her desire to write.

As a teenager, she raided her mother's romances and her father's action adventure books, so no surprise that her stories combine both. She especially loves reading and writing short stories—the perfect intense read to fit into a busy lifestyle—and teaches the writing workshop, Short Story, Big Impact. When she isn't wearing boots and a hard hat, she's at her computer drinking too much Diet Coke and working on her stories.

Along with her husband and son, Anna lives wherever her mining career takes her. She's always delighted to hear from readers.







Beyond Princess Leia
Princess Leia was voted 89th greatest film character of all time by Empire Magazine. When you think “galactic heroine” a cinnamon-bun hairstyle, flowing white dress and blaster pistol usually come to mind. Leia epitomizes the tough, smart and dedicated sci-fi heroine.
Meet 3 other galactic heroines who can solve futuristic crimes, pilot space tugs and close galactic trade deals. They are all smart, tough and sexy and star in the sci-fi romance holiday anthology, A GALACTIC HOLIDAY from Carina Press.

ARCHANGEL OF MERCY's Release Day!!!

Today is the official release day for Archangel of Mercy! And look what just turned up! My beautiful author copies!!!



 "Ashcroft’s unique world-building blends several familiar mythologies and draws the reader in with a creative and intriguing plot… Her characters are fascinating, the story line compelling, the romance scorching – don’t be surprised if you find yourself reading this book late into the night!”

Kylie Griffin, National Bestselling Author of The Light Blade Series


Destined to fall... destined to love...



"Archangel Of Mercy would appeal to readers who enjoy Nalini Singh and JR Ward. Dark, gritty and erotic. I loved it!”
Laurie London, Author of the Sweetblood Series
When Aurora Robinson attempts to open a rift between dimensions to embrace her true heritage, an arrogant Archangel is the only one who can save her from the jaws of hell. And while she owes Gabriel her life, she’s determined not to fall at his feet-despite the desire she feels whenever they’re together.

After his wings were brutally destroyed millennia ago, Gabriel has no compassion for humans like those who ruined him and betrayed the ones he loved. But when he inexplicably finds himself defying ancient protocols to rescue a woman from a fate worse than death, he is shocked by the searing attraction he feels for a mortal.

As the ancient forces that seek to punish Aurora for her actions close in, Gabriel offers the tempting woman protection at his private sanctuary. But as they both succumb to their desires, they discover an even deeper connection-one that threatens to consume them.

Black Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to the Black Friday blog hop!

I live in Australia and we don't have a Black Friday sale (we don't have a Thanksgiving celebration either, which is a shame). But I grew up in England, and remember how the sales would start on Boxing Day and they would be frenzied! Prices would be slashed and people would camp out to grab the best bargains. Since I hate being wet and cold (two things you're guaranteed to be at the end of December in England!) I never did this! I was much happier snuggled up in the warm :-)


There's only eleven days until Archangel of Mercy, my erotic paranormal romance from Berkley Heat, is released! I'm giving away some Archangel swag to one commenter on my blog.

Between an angel and a desperate woman comes salvation -
and a raw passion that challenges them at every turn... 







Over 18s Only Please!

Donut Holes & The Next Big Thing

Happy Wednesday! Today I'm visiting my lovely friend, Eleni Konstantine over at her Taverna in her Writing Buddy Wednesday slot. Find out what I'm up to at the moment and what's in my immediate future (apart from donut holes and coffee...) (no I cannot tell a lie. Donut holes and coffee are always in my immediate future...)




I've been tagged in The Next Big Thing by fellow Aussie author Alison Stuart who writes fabulous time travel romances and historical novels set during the seventeenth century. Allison's latest release from Lyrical Press is Gather the Bones, descibed as Downtown Abbey with ghosts, from Lyrical Press. 


I'm instructed to tell you all about my next book by answering these questions and then to tag between three to five other authors about their Next Big Thing. So here I go!

What is the working title of your next book?

Archangel of Mercy

Where did the idea come from for the book?

It was very odd. After a random comment from my good friend Eleni Konstantine about a new publishing line opening up, this image of a moody, Alpha Archangel just appeared in my mind. He was alone on the outer edge of the universe and refused to either leave my muse alone, or open up and let me know his story for about five years!


What genre does your book fall under?

Erotic Paranormal Romance

Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?

No idea. I will leave that up to my readers to imagine! (although I could have a lot of fun auditioning actors to play Gabe! (all in the name of research. I suffer for my art).


What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?

Between an angel and a desperate woman comes salvation - and a raw passion that challenges them at every turn.

Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency?

Archangel of Mercy is published by Penguin's Berkley Heat line and hits the shelves on 4th December 2012.

How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?

This book started out as a novella many years ago and gradually evolved into a full length after several rewrites. So the short answer is - a very long time!!!

What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?

This book, and the others in the series, are about fallen archangels and the women who capture their hearts. Laurie London,, author of The Sweetblood series, said this about Archangel of Mercy:

"Archangel Of Mercy would appeal to readers who enjoy Nalini Singh and JR Ward. Dark, gritty and erotic. I loved it!”

Who or What inspired you to write this book?

A random comment by a writing buddy, the haunting image of a solitary Archangel on the edge of the universe and the Mayan long calendar :-) 

What else about your book might pique the reader's interest?

If you enjoy tortured Alpha heroes, fallen bad ass archangels, sizzling sex and merciless villains then you might enjoy Archangel of Mercy!

I've tagged some of my fellow Romance Writers of the Apocalypse authors to tell you about their Next Big Thing next Wednesday - here are their links so you can check them out!

Maggie Nash - Maggie is doing her Next Big Thing today as well, so pop on over and have a peek!

Heroes with Wings. Or not, as the case might be...

Today I'm over at Riverina Romantics where I'm chatting about heroes with wings! Because Archangels have wings. Except Gabe, the hero in Archangel of Mercy doesn't. The reason why is wrapped in his dark and destructive past, but their loss affects everything he does in the present. Pop on over to Riverina Romantics and join in the fun!

I'm giving away one copy of Archangel of Mercy plus some gorgeous swag on the Riverina Romantics blog. The giveaway is international, wherever The Book Depository delivers. Look forward to seeing you there!

End of Days at Magical Musings

There is also a giveaway of a copy of Archangel of Mercy to one commenter on my post over at Magical Musings - the contest is open internationally to wherever The Book Depository delivers.

Congratulations!

In other writing news I've been chatting with my fabulous editor at Ellora's Cave and today I received her revisions on Betrayed. I'll be starting them tomorrow and hope to have them done by the middle of December.

As for Tainted, the fourth book in my Roman/Druid series, I'm more than three quarters of the way through and had hoped to finish by the end of this month. But that's now taking a back seat as I tackle the revisions. There should definitely be more hours in the day!

And I have finally posted the first chapter of Archangel of Mercy up on my blog!

Autumn Harvest Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Autumn Harvest Blog Hop!

Autumn to me is October and November, russet leaves, a chilly wind and red noses. But when my family and I moved to Australia several years ago, we had to get used to suddenly having all the seasons upside down.

September is the start of spring down here, and even after fourteen years I just can't get used to it! It feels so wrong when it gets to October and November and the weather is heating up, the sun is shining and the roses are blooming. My internal clock insists that the nearer we get to Christmas I should be piling on the layers whenever I set foot outside the door, or turning up the central heating and curling up on the sofa with a fabulous romance.

Well, although I now have to peel off the layers and turn on the air conditioning, one thing hasn't changed. I still love curling up on the sofa with a fabulous romance :-)


There's only three and a half weeks until the release of Archangel of Mercy, written under my pen name of Christina Ashcroft, and I'm getting pretty excited! This is the first book in a new series of fallen Archangels and the women who capture their hearts, coming on 4th December from Berkley Heat.

Over 18s Only Please!

Destined to fall... destined to love...

When Aurora Robinson attempts to open a rift between dimensions to embrace her true heritage, an arrogant Archangel is the only one who can save her from the jaws of hell. And while she owes Gabriel her life, she’s determined not to fall at his feet-despite the desire she feels whenever they’re together.
After his wings were brutally destroyed millennia ago, Gabriel has no compassion for humans like those who ruined him and betrayed the ones he loved. But when he inexplicably finds himself defying ancient protocols to rescue a woman from a fate worse than death, he is shocked by the searing attraction he feels for a mortal.
As the ancient forces that seek to punish Aurora for her actions close in, Gabriel offers the tempting woman protection at his private sanctuary. But as they both succumb to their desires, they discover an even deeper connection-one that threatens to consume them.
