I'm sooo excited to have my great friend Cari Quinn on the blog today. If you have never read Cari Quinn, shame on you. I have some reviews of many of her books on this blog. She is one of my favorite people in the world, even if she cheers for Syarcuse. :) I suggest that you pick up one of her books and read it. I dare you not to buy her entire backlist and devour it. I will leave the contest open over the weekend and through the magic of Random.org, I will pick a winner. Contest rules at the bottom.
Without further ado, Ms. Quinn...
Ten
fun facts about Vincent and Kiki from VIRGIN TERRITORY
Thanks so much to Harlie for having me here today.
She’s an amazing reviewer, writer and friend and I’m so excited to be hanging
out with her!
Today marks my first release with Decadent
Publishing, VIRGIN TERRITORY. I’m so excited for this book to hit the virtual
shelves! I thought to celebrate the release I’d name five fun facts about
Vincent and Kiki.
VINCENT
1)
He’s a closet…romantic. (Ha! If you’ve
read my other books, I bet you thought I’d say something kinkier. But nope, VT
is sexy, not erotic.)
2)
He loves chocolate milk – and yes, a
real man drinks milk!
3)
His timing for certain things is
impeccable. Especially when it involves watching certain videos and maybe using
his own hand to crank the muse…
4)
When it comes to spoiling a woman, it
takes him some time to get started. But when he comes around, boy, does he come
around!
5)
He wears a chain around his neck that
once belonged to the most important person in his life.
KIKI
1)
She LOVES a guy in glasses. If he’s
Italian, bonus points!
2)
Her favorite movie is Die Hard. Bruce
Willis FTW!
3)
She has a couple of tattoos in
interesting places—and one of them is cherries!
4)
It takes her a while to warm up to
people, but she has a sweet side that can only be beat by her saucy side.
5)
She won’t give up, no matter how long it
takes to reach her goal.
What about you? Do you have one fun fact about yourself
to share? Leave a comment and you’ll be entered to win one of my backlist ebooks
of your choice!
Before I go, here’s the blurb for VIRGIN TERRITORY
if you’d like to find out more!
Network analyst by day, erotic romance writer
by night, Vincent Buonfiglio is dealing with a work-in-progress that has gone
colder than winter in his hometown of Ridgley, North Dakota. So what does a man
who needs to write hot do to get cranking?
Search out a woman for a night of no-strings sex, of course.
But his choice of partner, Katherine "Kiki" Wyatt, manager of the Quikky Snak Gas & Lube, isn't biting. Flirting over his nightly chili dog is one thing. But a date? Sex? Not happening. Dangerously sexy geeks are off-limits no matter what they might have to offer outside the bedroom.
When an armed gunman changes everything, will deadlines, exes, and mind-blowing sex prove opposites don’t always attract or allow two unlikely lovers to pen a happy ending?

ReplyDeleteI'll share two facts with you, I like tattoos but I don't think I could ever have one I have a slight fear of needles. I don't know how you handle one Jennifer let alone three!
ReplyDeleteI think I have something in common with the character, I have a bit of a rough side but I can be pretty sweet once ya get to know me. Oh and I love to read!

Congrats on the new release.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading your new book.
ReplyDeleteIam afraid to get get a real tattoe (needles you know) but love to put henna ones on now and again to add a bit of spice! I take a while to open up but once I do - watch out Oh and I am a closet erotica romance lover.... Book sounds really good and great giveaway!
ReplyDeletefingershankins@yahoo.com
WOW! This sounds AWESOME! I think I have some of your books on my TBB list Cari; I'll have to check and definitely add this one:) Gotta love a guy who drinks chocolate milk!
ReplyDeleteFun Fact: See Kiki's #4...or if that's cheating (lol!), then I was voted 'Most Cool Mom in the Neighborhood' in 1998, because while touring a new neighbor's home, her son had a trap set in his room. I picked up his drum sticks (haven't had sticks in my hand since 1984, mind you!) and did a drum roll, plus tapped out a beat. The five kids who witnessed it were impressed, and spread the word to the other kids in the neighborhood:)
I love the Ten Fun Facts... Especially Vincent's :)
ReplyDeleteA fact about me?
I sing really loud in the car, when I'm alone, and just go all out lol
The fun facts were...fun. Like the cherries in interesting places!
ReplyDeleteInteresting facts about your characters. Sounds like a great read.
ReplyDeleteFun fact??? - gee, this is like homework - still thinking - hmmm - guess fun fact would be my brain can go dead at the most inopportune moments.
Four tattoos and wanting more.. I'm also a fan of Spongebob and I know the Dora the Explorer song by heart.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a book I really need to add to the TBB list...today!!
ReplyDeleteLike many of the ladies before me, I don't have tattoos, not through fear of needles (not a problem) but due to my 'day job' as a state employee. My fun fact is that I have hundreds of 'temp tats' at home and wear them all spring and summer-I always have something peeking out of a tank top and one on my ankle-they are fun, last a few weeks and then I change for another design. There is even an office pool trying to guess what I will wear next-will it be a dragon, flower, skull....
love to win, i am an avid reader, I don't have any tatoos
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun blurb. Sounds like it has just the amount of excitement needed to get the blood pumping. Congrats on the release.
ReplyDeleteauthor.tonikelly@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the excerpt and love the title and cover. Have added this to my tbr wishlist. A fun fact-I was a professional belly-dancer before joining the Marines (and moonlighted in the DC area while stationed at Quantico).

The book sounds awesome! Good luck with your new release!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great and enjoyable post. I'd love to get a tattoo. I've always wanted one. But, I have this phobia of needles, which made getting my piercings interesting. Thanks for the chance to win.

Also, my hubby is 7 years YOUNGER than me.

Loved the facts and the book sounds great! Interesting fact about me....I am one of the few people not scared of needles, lol. I have actually had to give myself injections due to allergies and blood clots. I am also a closet erotic romance lover. Something different is that I love Care Bears. I actually still have the first one I got back int eh 80's when I was a young kid. I now have many more too, and little figurines, stickers, etc. I do share with my nephew (4) who liked them until he decided they were for "girls", lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

Congratulations Cari on your new release "Virgin Territory". This book sounds Great, I really enjoyed the Blurb!You are a new Author to me, but I LQQk forward to reading your books.
ReplyDeleteTwo fun facts about me:
1. I am an Extreme Mixed Martial Art Fan; I NEVER miss a PPV from all the Organizations, subscribe to their website, get MMA magazines sent to my home, even have my Favorite Fighters Shirts.
2. I Love well thought out tattoos. I have a VERY Colorful, Extremely Intricate tattoo of the Goddess of Love on my entire hip that goes down my thigh. It was not a stencil, my Tattoo Artist free-handed The Goddess of Love directly on me, so when I sit, it LQQks like She is sitting, when I move, it LQQks like She is moving. My Tattoo Artist IS a TRUE Artist in EVERY sense of the word, She is Amazing!
OK I spilled my personal facts. :) Hope Everyone found them interesting.
I would very much appreciate the opportunity to be considered in your very generous giveaway. Thank You.
Take Care & Wishing You All the Best,
