Today's post is the Super Book Blast for Genie Gabriel's Halo Legacy Series, and the most recent release in the series, Legacy Reborn, release on July 1, 2013. This is a Contemporary Romance series, with hints of mystery, and all books are available from Rogue Phoenix Press. As a Book Blast, there will be no interview or blog post, but I will have the blurb, an excerpt and a bit about the author, Genie Gabriel, and will post a list of participating blogs for you to follow. Eight randomly drawn commenters throughout the tour will be awarded a $9 Amazon GC, so please leave your e-mail address when you comment.
I'm an optimist whose
rose-colored glasses have bent frames and cracked lenses. When life kicks me in
the teeth, I find miracles and lessons I refused to learn an easier way. In
fact, I live with a small herd of miracles in the furry forms of dogs, who are
constantly trying to teach me to forgive, to play more, and to love without
limits. I write about people who find courage and integrity in the darkest
times of their lives, who rescue stray dogs and kittens, who find a person they
would willingly give their lives for, and who make their little corners of the
world a better place. People have remarked my stories "aren't what they
expected." With rose-colored glasses firmly in place, I take that as a
compliment. I invite you to share a piece of my world in the pages of a book,
and hope you find some surprises, some tears, some laughter, and always a happy
ending.

NOTE: All nine books in
the Halo Legacy Series will be $0.99 the day of the tour!
Blurb for Legacy Reborn
An attorney devoted to
social causes and a burned out women's advocate help save their home town while
struggling not to fall in love. However, an unintended pregnancy and a gift
from the heart lead them on a journey to new possibilities and love.
Excerpt from Legacy Reborn
Once
more dressed in jeans and her well-worn cowboy boots, with a jacket thrown on
to ward off the chill evening air, Phoenix walked.
Against
a backdrop of blue-green mountain peaks and the lightly wooded hillsides closer
to the farm, the hens were settling in their coop, with only an occasional soft
clucking.
Inside
the boldly painted red barn, horses whickered in their stalls. She breathed
deeply of the scents of horse and hay as she ambled through the dusty
structure, then opened the side door and walked into the llama's pasture.
The
male immediately approached her and nuzzled her cheek as she slung her arm
around him. "I love you too, Romeo."
She
closed her eyes and relaxed against the animal's woolly neck. However, her
relaxation ended abruptly when the animal stiffened and emitted a shrill cry.
Following
the animal's gaze, Phoenix saw CJ standing on the other side of the corral with
his arms folded on the top board. "Will your llama spit in my face?"
"It's
alright, Romeo." Phoenix patted the llama, then walked slowly toward the
man who had occupied too much of her thoughts lately. "What brings you out
this way?"
"You
left the Governor's presentation right after you talked to Mitch. I wanted to
be sure you were okay."
All
the memories she had been trying to walk off slammed into Phoenix once more.
"What is okay? I'm not sure I've ever been okay or ever will be. How can I
find normal or happy when I don't think I've experienced those things?"
"You
come up your own version of what makes you happy."
"A
woman is dead because of me. How can I ever be happy knowing that?"
"Mitch
said Swaggerty was waiting for Charlene. If it hadn't been that night, he would
have killed her another way."
Phoenix let that statement
sink in. One part of her brain knew that was true. So why did she cling to the
blame for Charlene's death? Maybe she was
afraid to move forward.
Looks like I have a bit of shopping to do, I am so glad this series is on sale today, aren't you? Thanks for stopping by.
