On Friday, July 12th 2013
we (Rachel and Arlene) had the pleasure of driving to an amazing author event
at the Southern California Pomona Mining Company for a blissful
evening of book mingling, dining and even dancing!
There were over a dozen of our
favorite Contemporary Adult and New Adult Indie Authors on-site sharing their
latest books and fun swag.
Here’s a list of the authors who
attended the signing:
Catherine Bybee (Not Quite Dating)
Nyrae Dawn
(Charade)
Kailin Gow (Falling for Summer)
Melody Grace (Unbroken)
Audrey Harte
(Love in all the Wrong Places)
M.R. Joseph (Reunion)
Kimberly Knight (Where I Need to Be)
Bethany Lopez (Make
it Last)
Raine Miller (Naked)
Addison Moore (Someone
to Love)
Monica Murphy (One Week Girlfriend)
Julie Prestsater (Against the Wall)
Kristen Proby (Come
Away With Me)
Elizabeth Reyes
(The Moreno Brothers)
CJ Roberts (Captive
In The Dark)
So needless to say, we were in
absolute book heaven! We had a great time meeting these indie authors as well
as chatting and laughing with some fellow book enthusiasts. It was pure
enjoyment swapping spicy book recs with one another and hearing about some of
the Fifty-type book parties our fellow readers organize and host. O.O
The highlight of the evening was
clearly meeting CJ Roberts and having the chance to conduct a live interview
with her while she took a break outside of the restaurant. She was hilarious
and twisted in the best combination possible. If you missed that interview, be
sure to go HERE for more details.
We both came to the event with our
own personal book stash ready to have signed, but as always when we meet these
authors and their book piles are in reaching distances our hands become grabby,
and we walk away with more than we intended. Love it!
Before we share what we brought back,
we wanted to announce two book winners that posted a comment on our Author
