The Veil Blog Tour

Seven years ago, the Veil that separates us from what lies beyond was torn apart, and New Orleans was engulfed in a supernatural war. Now, those with paranormal powers have been confined in a walled community that humans call the District. Those who live there call it Devil’s Isle.
Claire Connolly is a good girl with a dangerous secret: she’s a Sensitive, a human endowed with magic that seeped through the Veil. Claire knows that revealing her skills would mean being confined to Devil’s Isle. Unfortunately, hiding her power has left her untrained and unfocused…
Liam Quinn knows from experience that magic makes monsters of the weak, and he has no time for a Sensitive with no control of her own strength. But when he sees Claire using her powers to save a human under attack — in full view of the French Quarter — Liam decides to bring her to Devil’s Isle and the teacher she needs—even though getting her out of his way isn’t the same as keeping her out of his head.
As more and more Sensitives fall prey to their magic, and unleash their hunger on the city, Claire and Liam must work together to save New Orleans, or else the city will burn…

Review is yet to come . . .
I'd just finished the book and after a long day of traveling, I couldn't force out a review without having the time to really digest the whole book while I wrote the review. 
 
On a Side note: The Veil had a distinct and different theme from what I'd normally read and while I had been meaning to start the Chicagoland Vampires also by Chloe Neill I hadn't yet. The Veil was set in New Orleans and the way Chloe paid close attention to locations of the city, made me felt like I was in the City.

The Cat's Meow: Mail Mices

We have Mail Mices!

I wanted to share with you some of my Mail mices that I've gotten the past few days, one was from Mindy Ruiz author of Enchanted Heart and the second was Chloe Neill author of Chicagoland vampires. 

 

Both mail mices came in large sizes, from a brown package to a large white tube . . . Yes a large white tube I wondering the same thing. 

 

Mindy Ruiz

I had won one of the prizes from Mindy Ruiz Enchanted Heart Book/Blog tour awhile ago and it wasn't the grand prize of cash prizes for Vegas since the book is taken place in Vegas. But here's a photo of what I won . . .

 

 

Prizes includes:

Water bottle with a pair of dices design and Mindy Ruiz's name

Key Chains of each house with poker chip

Two pins that says "Keep Calm and Date a Royal"

A Poker chip with an heart in the center

a Stick to place on a phone, it's has a heart shape diamond necklace

A Thank you card with an apology about a "Lost Prize" so that's where $10 Amazon Gift Card comes in

And last but not least

A Signed Book! 

Chloe Neill

Next is Chloe Neill prizes, how I came to win this prize was by a FB contest for Who should play the Characters . . . this one was for Ethan Sullivan. 

Now to be completely honest, I haven't read the books yet but picking a person to portray a character wasn't hard . . . so I went with Channing Tatum in a suit 

 

Prizes included:

A large Poster that you would see at a signing if the author was going to be present at a bookstore, she also signed it as well.

6 bookmarks consist of some chicagoland vampirs and her Elite series

Two little business cards both very different

A Cadogon  House Lanry 

A Cadogon House key chain (it's heavy!!!!) 

A button 

and a pen with Chicagoland vampires written on it
