Hey Alyson! I ordered Blue Moon off of Overstock, but it won't ship till August, so I rushed out to the store and found a copy of Blue Moon because I couldn't wait, hehe. :] I read it in one sitting, which I've never done with a book before. Not even Twilight. But yeah, it was amazing, and I'm so excited for Feb. when Shadowland comes out. :]]] - Chelsea (pronounced Chel-see-uh)
Since I didn't win a signed copy of your book, I would love it if you signed a copy of the book for me when I get it and when you in the Inland Empire. I am so excited to read the book and I wish the third book would come out the same day, but I know that's not going to happen. lol. What's the name of the third book?
