I don't know when I'm going to do when the party stops!

Sharon F.

Sake...Huh? IO have a naughty tale that involoves some sake. What's a girl gotta do to win Red Kiss? I can't wait much longer...Borders here I come *run out house*

MEOW! Count me in on the cougar prowl! I'm reading Red Fire right now and I'm already salivating for Red Kiss!

Lovin' the party. Plse count me in :)

Fabulous party. Count me in please.

You and Deirdre are out of control! ;)

Would love to win a copy of any book ;)

Count me in...for the the contest and the cougar prowl.

I'm so glad I'm not alone in my channeling of Elaine Benis on the dancefloor. Hey we should start an Elaine Benis Dance Troupe...who's in?

Great party ladies!!! Congrats to the winner of the contest for the last two days. Think of us (non-winners) while you enjoy your goodies.Any chance you ladies making it to Fort Liquor-Dale (better known as Ft Lauderdale). I know it's not anything like the places so far on your tour, but we do have nice beaches and nightlife, and some very interesting people!!Count me in again today.Too bad the sailor weekend has already passed. All those men off their ships at Port Everglades (which is so close)YUM.

Me, me, me please!!

Sake sounds delish! Count me in!! Thanks for such a great contest!

Tokyo!!! This HAS to turn into a wild movie script!!!

Good morning, dear partiers.

Hugs, Nancy/JJ

count me in please!

Looking forward to seeing where the party goes tomorrow }:)

Tokyo? Wow, you guys are making the rounds on your world tour! Are you by chance going to make a stop in Budapest to visit the Lords of the Underworld boys? I bet you two could set that castle on fire...literally-LOL!

More fun to be had...sounds great!

Okay, so I watched the Flashback Disco video. I do believe it was sake induced as well. Either that, or Gena's giving a hint to her next series of books. I mean a bull with a hook? A moose with fangs cooking Thanksgiving dinner? Classic.

So excited to read Seduce the Darkness! Hope to win

I do not like yo Sam I AM - sorry I couldn't think of anything to rhyme with Ares!
Sorry for the double post. I couldn't get the word verification to come up for some reason.

I can't wait to read the new book!

confessionsofawanderingheart(at)gmail(dot)com

Tatoo would've been hilarious if it was a dragon being chased by a cougar!

Count me in too.

This has been great and lovin the recipies..hehe..Thanks so much!
HUgs,
Kelly

Hmm, what does it say about me that I was totally game to go topless yesterday but you mention a tube top and a mini skirt and I shudder?

Wouldn't it be fun to actually do this kind of vacation one day? Man, we'd all probably end up in jail, which has to be good fodder for writing, right? :D

/rueyn on Twitter.

Can't wait to hit the dance floor in my new stiletto black heels and micro mini.

Club hopping and drunken tattoos, I'm in!!


Lovin' the party,count me in on the book giveaway please.

elaing8(at)netscape(dot)net

Yay, more drinks! With good books nonetheless, LOL! What more could a girl want? :-)

Lovin' the party!

Really enjoying the world tour, pics, and drink recipes.

Yea!! Dancing!! SO much fun! Good luck with the boyz!!

Dragon tattoos...very nice.

I would love to be entered.

Wow! That's one powerful drink! No need for sake! Be careful about the 'meow' lolol

Please enter me.

Dottie :)

I love Tokyo and wouldn't mind a dragon tattoo, so pass around the sake. Thanks for the contest

Not much of a dancer myself, so you're not the only one scaring people. Love the tat, wish I could work up enough courage-inebriation-to get one myself.

I can't wait for Seduce the Darkness to come out. Thanks for the party and the contests. It gives me something to look forward to when I get up. I am having a blast.

Count me in! I've loved your locations this week, and given the fact that today my plans include getting the oil changed in my car and shuttling the kids around town, your vacation tour is that much more fun!

Whoa, how did we get to Tokyo...and has anybody seen my top? :D

Wow I wish I was in Tokio!
Hey count me in for the contest!

I'm anti-sour ever since the time I botched mixing an Amaretto Stone Sour. Blech. Also not big on melon. I'm more of a Lynchburg Lemonade type of girl ... that or a Fuzzy Navel.

Ya'll get to have all the fun. Hope the Tats are very colorful. Be careful and don't drink too much sake.

Oohh Tokyo---would love to go there.

Happy Wednesday everyone!!

Aww, I CANNOT pass this up!!!

That Tokyo Tea sounds delish!

And the dragons tattoos look so awesome!

Sake... I'll pass on, but the dragon tattoo I'm right there with ya. Watch out for cat scratch fever.. lol

I love dancing, so count me in, not to mention I love reading a spicy book. So count me in with the book contest.
Cindy F

Partying around the world with everyone is anexperience of a life time!! throw in the contest with two OUTSTANDING authors.....well I have no words!!

I think I am going to stop by the book store to find some of Deidre's books. I have an angel tattoo, does that count?

Clubbing in Tokyo with you two!!!! I'm in!! :)

I love you both of your books!!!

Gena-my daughter asks me everyday where you are with Gideons book; she wants you to hurry up so you can go back to her YA books!! I love it! Her fav book of all time (yes it surpassed Twilight) is Oh My Goth! I need to win her a copy...pick me!!!!!

Tokyo, dancing, and dragon tattoos... the life of bliss. :)

That drink sounds good, better than yesterdays i must say :) i'm not a big fan of basil. And dragon tattoos wow, i like that, don't have a tub top but i'll but on my halter and i have the hottest white mini and tons of heels. I'll dance big and no will notice your elain impression :)

Haven't won yet, but maybe third time's a charm? :D

My tube top keeps falling down...oops that's my skirt, wait...where is my shirt? Hey, where are we again? What, I'm just drinking tea! LOL...I'm not that bad......anymore:)

hmm....drinks and books, what more could a girl ask for....

Oh, you ladies are SO much fun to party with!! And my dragon tattoo is smoking hot! I figure that the military guys will want to show us their tattoos, then we can show them ours, right?? :)

I'd always wanted to go to Tokyo and now with Gena, how could I have possibly said no!? :)

Feeling a little confused on my days and nights, though!

@Arleen--when your daughter asks where Gena is with Gideon's book, tell her Tokyo! LOL!! :)

@ginathefan--I'm giving away RED FIRE mostly, just because it's book one in the series. But today, since you mention it, I'll also give away a RED KISS! How's that? :)

@laska! Thrilled you want to check out my books!! :)

And thanks to EVERYONE for all the great posts! Keep 'em coming! do you know we almost broke 300 posts on Monday! Maybe we'll get those last ten posts. :)
hugs

Gena, I was already a big fan of yours, but thanks to Party Week, I discovered Deidre! I just ordered several of her books!

@WandaC--wow, thank you SO MUCH!!Hope you love them.

Thanks to everyone who is popping by my blog this week, too! I'm feeling the love!

Here's the link in case you need it:
www.deidreknight.blogspot.com
hugs

@Diedre-Red Kiss is book 1?
I'm glad you're giving one of those away,I haven't read the series yet,best to start with book 1:)

Ooooh, while you gals hit the club scene, I'll be hitting the anime scene. I have a weakness for anime!

This is so much fun

Sounds like you had fun! :)

ok,I keep mixing the book order up...I think its all those drinks you've introduced me too.lol.I went back and looked book 1 is Red Fire,that's the one I really,really want;)

You guys are the best!

I'm to chapter 17 of Gideon's book and I think there'll be around 30. I'll be writing the sequel to Intertwined next.

Red Fire is the first book in Deidre's Gods of Midnight series and Red Kiss is book two. You can't go wrong with either one!!

This is so cool...Konichiwas (sp?) Sake is dangerous....you guys sound like you are having so much fun...I am in for the dragon tat...always wanted one of those...definitely would need sake to numb the pain...

Congrats to yesterdays winners...

Numbers are a little low today so far...hmmm...they must all be hung over from yesterday or jetlag...it is amazing how both you and Deidre can still party after flying around...the hottie is a major one...can you box him up and send him via airmail? I hope you guys continue to have lots of fun...I will zip in again later on...

Peace and love,
Paula R.

Count me in. :)

Love the blog theme. I would love to win a book :)

Hello, dahlings!
I should add that the hottie IS a real hottie, isn't he?

And, yes, RED FIRE is first in the series, then next is RED KISS (and coming up will be RED ANGEL and RED DEMON, but those aren't out for a while yet!)

Btw, anyone around here on Twitter? Come follow me! www.twitter.com/deidreknight.

I love tweeting! D

Hi Gena! Count me in! I belong to a group of stay at home moms on a parenting website and we have a "virtual vacay" at least once a month. We vote on where we'd like to go (and post pics) and then vote on who we want to be our sexy "cabana boys"...LOL!!
Last week was Venice, Italy and Dwayne Johnson and Kenny Chesney were our voted "gondola sailors"... It helps "shake it up" to pass the time between diapers, crazy kids and endless loads of laundry
Cheers!!

SAKE BOMBS!

I love reading your blog, Gena, and I LOVE your blog parties!!

Tokyo, I love that city! I've only been once, but definitely a place I'd return to.

Wow sounds like you're having a good time! Can't wait until i start reading the books! xo

I love sake with sushi! What a fun party.

Tokyo --- yippee yeah! I always wanted to go. More sake plz-a little warm of course. Did I see a man in uniform?

Dom Arigato Mr.Roboto. Is it time for everyone to start kung foo fighting yet? (hehehe;>)

Great party! Count me in!

WOW, if beefcake like that is there... I'm headed to Tokyo right now and they better call out animal control because this cougar is on the prowl for beefcake like that. LOL
Hope you girls have a great time at the clubs.

I want a dragon tat!
*downs sake*

Somehow Gena, I doubt you're as bad as Elain! But even if you are - all the club goers probably have on their sake-goggles, so you're safe!

Deidre - Pick me, pick me! Red Fire sounds juicy!!!

OMG this is just what the doctor order after a manic week like this one! Yay!

The world will never be the same once this world tour is done ;o)

@Mindy, animal control? You made me laugh!

I'm thinking everyone has rented a private jet and are now en route to join Gena and me in another sake run! Wait, that's Gena running after some Marine, trying to show her tattoo!

@L2! LOL!! Never. The. SAme. I like it!

And just wait until you see where we're heading TOMORROW!! WOOOO!! I'm going to need a vacation to recover! LOL!

Love the dragon tat. In Oita they do great fish tatoos, not scary but very artistic. I would love a copy of your book. Keep up the good write.

Add Me into this!
I think that your next drink should be a bottle of Dom from Paris!
If I win will u email me at hughes1992@yahoo.co.uk
Thanks love you Gena

I am so jealous! sound like you are having a wonderful time. I think I'm going 2 call my girls and schedule a girls night. Bring on the sake!

Three days of hot men so far. And the drinks and other scenery haven't been too bad either... LOL

Kanpai!

I'm not sure a tube top is the best choice for energetic dance moves. LOL

Great party!

Hey everyone! You guys have the best parties - drinks, books, and exotic locations. I will definitley have to hit the back yard with my new drink, book, and sunshine!

Would love to go to Tokyo!
Margay

Hey guys hope you have a good week and I love how a dragon is the compramise between an alien.

I'm enjoying the party!

ok, i'm turning into a lush with all of your fab drink recipes (as well as broke), and Seduce the Darkness leaves me in need of serious refreshment. That is a great cover and title!!!!

I would love to win a book! Count me in too!!!

Ooh - thanks for another fun contest and party invite! I already have a little dragon tat, but the drink'n'prowl adventure sounds incredibly fun! *evil grin*

Cheers
kim DOT giardina AT gmail DOT com

club hopping and tattoos sounds like fun. Definitely would have to be a little intoxicated for the tattoos though. :) Needles and I do not get along. Let the fun begin....:)

You know, after a couple of those Tokyo Tea's I'd agree to most anything--tattoos in obscene places, body piercings, role playing the lives of my favorite romantic heroines...*sigh*

The excerpts are outstanding. Already read Deidre's (you don't want to miss Red Kiss!!!!O.M.G!), but I'm dying to read yours, Gena!

Sake and dragon tattoo's sounds likes a great time!

And when I said excerpts, I meant blurbs. Sheesh, alcohol has gone straight to my head *g*. Or maybe it was the beefcake?

Tattoos, sake, and dancing? Sounds like a good time. Hope you ladies are being careful though. Dont get into trouble... ;)

enter me please

Ohh count me in :)

~Sarah-Beth

Hahaha sake and dragon tattoos! Yes!

I wanna party with you girls for real! But no tube top for me (really bad idea) but I'll wear a cute spaghetti strap top with the mini-skirt. Just make sure you hold onto your purses.

And military men! What a great idea! Seriously, you girls are so fun :)

I'd love to see Tokyo! As for the dragon tattoo, my husband has that covered! HAHA! It's on the back of his neck! I've got two of my own a beautiful symbol for "Spirit" and my son's name. Soon there is going to be a third tattoo seeing as though I just had another baby! Soon his name will be added to me permanently because I love them so much! As for the sake...unfortunately I don't do alcohol very well, do I'll be the D.D. and take you ladies out on the town!!! Who says you can't have fun sitting back watching and laughing at all your inebriated friends? HAHA! It's all good FUN!!!
Uh-oh...feeding time! The little man is starting to cry! Can't wait to see where we go next!!!

Amy xo

Count me in! Ooo and ladies I love the covers of your new releases!!

WOW! That's some kind of drink. I think I'll stick to the rum punch so I will still be able to read.

We should party like this every day!

I can't wait to see where you take us tomorrow. I think you 2 need a chaperone, I will gladly volunteer. Have a great day.

I am so jealous of all the traveling you are doing! Sounds fun.. I'm still studying my ass off for grad school exams. Would love to check out the new books! Have fun! : ) Surrealstar@yahoo.com

Major announcement! Tomorrow night Gena and I will be chatting LIVE from a top secret international destination!! :) live, tomorrow night at 9 pm EASTERN, join us at the chat room at www.knightagency.net. Follow the link to the chat room and come play with us! We'll be giving away dragon tattoos. Ha, not really. We'll be giving away the secrets of the universe. Well, maybe. No, we'll actually be giving away some wonderful prizes! Come play! D

Hi Deidre and Gena,

billi jean

Wendy

Wow. The tube top makes my chest look..very chesty! Lol love the Dragon tat!

"Oh My Goth" count me in please, please, please!!! Just got on the "Darkest" bandwagon and it is hot, hot, hot. Sorry about repeating myself but it is!! Having a hard time waiting for the next books!!! If you girls party as hard and fast as your books then I want more!!! Would love any book if I win.

Sake and tattoo parlors are a bad combo. We'll need to see a pic of the new tat of course!

Can't wait for the new book!

Great party! Count me in!

Great party! Count me in.

Goodness gracious, sounds as if the
party is really rocking! So many
guests stopping by to "see and be

grab a drink, ( no sake, no dragons
for me today! LOL) then it's the dance floor for me! Count me in,
and also for all the fun!

Pat Cochran

When you get to Scotland do a toast on the isle of Skye for me!!

Still hoping to win one of your books Gena (I already have the Red series) :)

Thanks
Becki

Sounds like you two having a fun time. Don't get into too much trouble with those men in Tokyo.

Pass the sake, I like that dragon tat. *grins*

I love to go out dancing. You girls sure know how to party it up. I'll confess I'm a spy if you send one of those military hunks to snatch me up.

Sounds like you're having a grand time!

stephanie.campisi AT gmail.com

Oh, how nice, another great cocktail to try. With a little buzz, you might just get me on the dance floor. Would love a chance at Red Kiss.

Gena - I love your Lords of the Underworlds books and your Wisteria stories! I can't wait for more! The women rock and the men are amazing! Can't put them down once I get started. Keep 'em coming! ;-)

Sounds like a fabu time! =]

Love the recipies

Loving Tokyo atmosphere and can't wait to read seduce the darkness =)

ooh sake.. weakness incarnate. and I will need bail money after a bottle of that.

Isn't it spelled Konnichiwa? I have a friend who loves using japanese words, and who is her victim? Me.

hehe, I learned right quick what some words were. Heck, I know how to say "Good night" in japanese

i cant wait to read seduce the darkness!!!

Oh hotness! He is drool worthy!

Love her tat's!

Count me into the contest also!! Woo hoo!

That girls tatoo is beautiful but I bet it hurt getting it!!:)

Sounds like you are having a great time! Love your books! Wish I was there!

You two sure know how to do a party right! Men in uniforms...men out of uniforms...yummuy drinks that make EVERYONE such wonderful dancers....I'm loving this party week! Lions may roar but Cougars rule!

Sweet! Woo to the hooo.

Count me in!~

Congrats to the lucky ladies who won the last two days. Please count me in.

PARTY... did some girl mention a party? LOL!! Well you need to count this Aussie Gal in...

ps: Congrats to all the previous winners...YIPEE!! there is some awesome reading in those books... besides partying... reading a great book has gotta be high on the list also of pleasureable activities... hehe... you gals know what I mean....

take care & best wishes!!

The Tokyo Tea sounds good, but I can't handle the sake.

Hope you are having fun

From Cabana Boys to the French Riviera to Tokyo Nights, you ladies sure have taken us on a fun filled journey. Can't wait to see where we are going next... Perhaps Greece or Scotland(gotta love those kilts)?

Keeping my fingers crossed that today will be my lucky day to win!

Looking forward to tomorrows chat

Wow,dragon tattoo's...this your first tattoo? I have 2 myself...my husband has 9 of them. I'll try...rhomitz1@yahoo.com.

A dragon seems like a good compromise! Dancing sound like a lot of fun. I hope you're enjoying your WILD trip!! HEHE!

Ooh loving the Tokyo scene! and why not get dragon tattoos!? Then go out dancing to show em off! You go girls! Here's to more of your books! And hoping I win! lol

Count me in!!

Love the tattoo idea, just got a dragon myself and it is amazing! The question then remains... where shall it go? Try Carmen Electras aerobic striptease if you want to learn some interesting moves for the dance floor and beyond...

Wow love the cover there Gena! I'd love to be in the contest! Thanks bunches!!!

I love to shake it and dance! :) And this is a great way to see the world!

Sounds like a blast! Count me in!!

Oh yeah! One of my favorite places in the world, for sure. And while we're at it, why don't we head over to Osaka for some of the country's "best" food?

My EDJ (Evil Day Job) is interrupting my partying with you guys. Then I had to come home to computer software updates. Oh well if I want to keep buying your books I guess - I need to keep going to the EDJ.

Great covers and yummy beefcake!
Count me in please :)

Darn!! I am going to be at work tomorrow. I have to work all day!! *cries in the corner*

I am thinking Tokyo Tea would go great with some sushi right about now.

I don't know if I'm too late to enter for today but I can't help it, work blocks us from everything. :( I'm loving the drink recipes!! Can't wait to try the Tokyo Tea!!

Congrats on both new releases. And thanks for letting me party with you.
