Blood Debt Blog Tour: Guest Post



Blood Debt (Touched #1)
Author: Nancy Straight
Genre: New Adult/YA Fantasy
Release Date: July 15, 2012

Description:

Her whole life, it had just been the two of them. Before her mother’s last breath, she gave Camille the information she had craved her entire life: the identity of her father. Daring to contact him, Camille was welcomed by an entire family she never knew existed. But nothing comes without a price, as she discovers when her family claims a legendary heritage tracing back to a centaur touched by Zeus.

As she learns the secrets of her Centaur bloodline, she is drawn into a forbidden love with Drake. Her life may be the blood debt required to pay for her mother’s transgressions. The same person who once held her mother captive, and forced her into decades of hiding, now controls Camille. Her only chance is to seek a piece of her mother’s past that will win her freedom and the life she desperately wants.





My Top 10 Favorite Books

Thanks so much for signing up for the Blood Debt tour! It’s great to be back here! Wow, Stephanie, do you know how hard this post was? Could you possibly have asked me for anything harder? Maybe reciting the Articles of Confederation or the US Constitution? I want you to know I’ve been agonizing over my favorites for days, DAYS I TELL YOU!! I would have rather you asked me to name my top 25 books Alright, it’s your blog, we’ll do it your way. *smiles*

Each of these ten books (and in many cases the following series) consumed my life while I read them. I read in bed at night, in the morning before the kids were up, in my car waiting at the bus stop, on the way to the movie theater, at a restaurant. . . are you getting the picture here? Can you say obsessed? Every waking minute that I was able to, my nose was in my kindle. I hope these are some of your favorites, too. If not, I HIGHLY recommend you read them!

In no particular order:

Significance by Shelly Crane

Inescapeable by Amy Bartol

Five by Christie Rich

Beg for Mercy by Shannon Dermott

Reckless Magic by Rachel Higginson

Existence by Abbi Glines

The One by Heather Self

Meant to Be

The Wild Ones by Michelle Leighton

Eternal Eden

Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your favorite books with us Nancy! Even though it was a tough one for you to tackle!  :)
I LOVE Starbucks’ White Mocha Latte and Mountain Dew, (but not together). I have a lead foot so I set cruise control when I drive, even in 25 MPH zones. I almost never win when I play Angry Birds, but have my 8 year old close, so he can clear the hard levels for me. I grew up on a farm and am opposed to eating fresh chicken (not opposed to meat - just opposed to any meat that was alive a few hours before lunch). I am a huge fan of the show, Big Bang Theory, on CBS. I have a stray cat that I feed every night and morning but she’s never let me get closer than within 3 feet of her – I keep thinking eventually I’ll wear her down and she’ll let me pet her. I share my life with two fantastic sons, three rotten dogs and a husband that I adore.
