Kylie's Kiss Blog Blitz



Welcome Delia! I've so been looking forward to this visit. Can you sit awhile so we can talk about the Solomon's Gate series? Destiny's Gate was just wonderful. Matter of fact, I couldn't resist and I told everyone about it last week. And to be honest, Kylie's Kiss looks even better. How long will we have to wait for Gypsy's Game, I wonder?

Oh, and I understand today is a very special day for you...

That's right, thank you! Happy Birthday to me! But I have a gift for YOU!

For me?

LOL Well, for some lucky readers who would care to follow me in this birthday blog blitz! I will be touring from blog to blog - and I'm bringing along Kylie Matthews, the heroine from my new release,
Kylie's Kiss! I hope you'll join us.

So I guess we'll have to wait for Kylie to show up at the next stop before we can learn more about them?

Well, here's what it's all about.

On a dare, Kylie Matthews lands smack in the middle of Solomon's Gate-Castle Creek's new Christian dating agency-and she finds herself revealing exactly what she's waiting for in a relationship.

And????

LOL Well, all right. Here's a little snippet.

Excerpt:

“Don’t be embarrassed, sweetie. We all wait for something. What are you looking for? Do you know?”
She heaved a sigh. Might as well lay it all out on the table. “I’ve probably read too many fairy tales and watched too many romantic movies,” she mumbled.
Destiny leaned closer, straining to hear. Kylie forced herself to meet the other woman’s curious gaze and raised her voice, blurting out the embarrassing answer. “I’m waiting for the kiss that makes my legs weak and steals my breath away. The kind of kiss where an over‐dramatic movie producer would add fireworks and gunfire in the background.”
There. She’d said it. Kylie closed her eyes and plowed ahead. “I’m waiting for the man whose lips will touch mine and make my heart come alive,” she finished in a tiny voice.

Oh my gosh, now I can't wait to hear more!

Then be sure to follow along! As you visit each blog, be sure to leave a comment - just in case we don't see you.
Every comment counts as an entry into the drawing that will be held at the end of the day. Winners will be announced on my website at http://www.delialatham.net/blogblitzjune27th.htm .

FIRST PRIZE:
Isn't it beautiful? The pendant is a bottle, and the other little bottle in the picture holds Queen Esther anointing oil - something to go in your pendant. (I obtained both necklace and oil from The Master's Jewels.) The pretty stones on the pendant are duplicated on the other side, and then, of course, there's that sweet little pearl hanging from the bottom. The pendant is 2 1/2 inches long.

ADDITIONAL PRIZES:

For every half dozen blogs I visit on June 27th, I will give away one pdf copy of either Destiny's Dream (Book one, Solomon's Gate) or Kylie's Kiss (Book two, Solomon's Gate) ; OR a print copy of Morning Rendezvous
(winner's choice). So...if I'm hosted at twelve blogs, I'll give away TWO books. If I have eighteen hosts, THREE commenters will win a book. And so on.

Below are all the blogs Kylie and I will be juggling on June 27th. So it all starts here.

As I schedule more, they will be added here, so you'll know where to find us. (Two blog addresses beside any host's name indicates that host will post Kylie's and/or my information at two different web locations).

  12. Hi, everyone! Wow, how nice to find such a wonderful group waiting. Delia will be back in a little while, but I wanted to stop in and say hello too - and that I hope all of you enjoy my story! God did so much for me in the course of Kylie's Kiss, and I'm eager to talk about all of that. First, good luck to ALL of you in the drawings! And now...does anyone have a question about my own book, or the Solomon's Gate Series in general, that they'd like to discuss? I'll sure try to answer your questions and comments. :)

Thank you, Patsy...Delia has been having a great birthday, but it's been so packed, I don't think she's had time to really appreciate it yet. :) Marianne, you're such a lovely lady, and I happen to know Delia enjoys your books immensely. Martha, it's been a fun blitz, thanks to a bunch of people like you! Good luck to all of you in the drawings!
