Thanks for the welcome!
RT was a blast, but I’m glad to be back. The exciting news for today is that Part 2 of my interview is up at Romance Novel Television. You can also click on this link in case you can’t see the video below.
Romance Novel TV has been so supportive and it’s great that they’ve chosen to release this interview to coincide with my May release, BLOOD CALLS from Silhouette Nocturne. Here’s a little blurb for you about BLOOD CALLS, number 6 in THE CALLING Vampire Novel series.
Her blood called to him, but for vampire Diego Rivera, Ramona Escobar’s sensuality proved even
more potent. He had to resist-for there could be no such thing as love
for him. Five centuries ago Diego had vowed never to turn another with
the bite of the undead. And though Diego knew the dark underworld of
New York was no place for a human, his unslaked desire commanded that
Ramona be his for one night.
But when the artist’s life was threatened by a reclusive millionaire
who had used Ramona’s skills to build a forgery ring, Diego needed to
unleash his inner demon to save her. Then he was faced with a
choice-lose the woman he loved or turn her with a vampire’s kiss.
REVIEWS:
5 Angels from Fallen Angel Reviews: “Having read Death Calls, Devotion Calls, and Blood Calls one after the other, I am impressed with how original each book is even though they share characters at times. Caridad Piñeiro has done a wonderful job, once again, developing believable characters in believable circumstances with unbelievable characteristics. She has allowed the reader to suspend belief and delve into her world time and time again only to see new nuances each time they visit. I am hooked. Thank you for hours of amazing reading.”
5 Stars from HUNTRESS REVIEWS — Reviewed by Detra Fitch : Author Caridad Piñeiro pumps so much life into all her characters that I almost believe they are real. Special Agent Diana Reyes, and her vampire lover, Ryder, are secondary characters in this Nocturne episode. (If you have not read their story, titled DEATH CALLS, you will still have no trouble with this book. Other secondary characters had their story told in previous titles too.) The main characters of this story, Diego and Ramona, are a perfect match for each other. I never felt the need to hit one of them on their head because of any sort of stupidity. They are both intelligent and realistic people, while also cautious when it comes to their hearts. Creating characters that I can actually care for is a special talent in authors, and therefore, I cannot recommend this title highly enough.
4 stars, Just Erotic Romance Reviews: “In addition to being an imaginative writer, Ms. Pineiro is a daring one as well. She has created an unusual heroine in Ramona by giving her artistic passion and an ailing body that cannot keep up with her larger than life goals. Diego is a very complex character to like. The constant battle between his human and vampire self is intriguing to read. . . There is a depth in every character within this dark, steamy world struggling to keep a balance between humanity and the blood craving clan. Although it has loads of action and beautifully written scenarios, the storyline doesn’t overload the senses while the reader is engrossed deeply in imagining everything.”
Alternative Worlds: “The vampire romance novels of Caridad Pineiro’s “The Calling” Series are tastefully erotic, very action oriented and character driven. In BLOOD CALLS, number six in the series, the protagonists are afraid to love for very different reasons. Ramona, knowing time is short, is determined to live life to the fullest and meet the goal of seeing her mother cared for in a nursing home for the for the rest of her natural life. Readers will like Ramona but adore Diego whose mixed emotions make him a believable character.”
5 Stars from SingleTitles: “BLOOD CALLS is an astounding mix of passionate emotions with the paranormal, resulting in a mesmerizing story of eternal love. . .The romance between Diego and Ramona is beautifully expressed, where their every thought and deed are significant in the outcome of their relationship. With the threat of danger escalating throughout the story, there is no way to put this book down until the final word is read. A gripping and satisfying story, BLOOD CALLS will pull readers into this alluring vampire world.”
