Vampire Babylon by author Chris Marie Green

Tomorrow’s the day!

The third Christine Cody Bloodlands book will be released tomorrow, September 27! In Blood We Trust takes up where Blood Rules left off—with trouble brewing in the new monster society. (For an excerpt for In Blood We Trust, you can go here )

If you’ve been reading the series, you know that there’s a lot of darkness and it’s not necessarily a strict “paranormal romance.” It was a departure into darker fantasy for me in a lot of ways (hence, the new pen name), as I wanted to tell an epic story with a heavier theme. Thank you so much for sticking with the series with all the ups and downs and continuing adventures—hopefully there’ll be more to come, so stay tuned via the usual places like Twitter, Facebook, and my blog!

You might’ve seen my “What To Expect” list of hints about Blood Rules and In Blood We Trust on Twitter, Facebook, or the blog, but here’s a collection of what I posted:
#1: Gabriel finds out what’s in store for him during his development as a vampire, and it includes something called “the gloaming”… #2: Even during a victory against bad guys, there can be trouble when the victors can’t agree who’s in charge now… #3: Mariah just might have the opportunity to find a sense of closure re: her traumatic attack in Dallas…. #4: In classic cowboy movies (which Bloodlands uses as a template), endings are often bittersweet….

So…Tuesday. That’s the day for In Blood We Trust!

Here’s a list of some upcoming guest blogs and appearances (although there’s always a chance something will be added at the last minute—so you can check Twitter, Facebook, and my own blog for that, too):
