Welcome to Blog Tour de Force Masquerade! I hope you’re having fun because I surely am.
I’ve taken over Todd’s blog!
Yep, that’s right. It’s mine for the day. I think I'll settle in with a good book and let you guess who I am. Take your time, I have all day.
Want to know what I’m reading, with my feet up, chillin’ on Todd’s blog? Well, I would have read First Chosen, but I read that weeks ago. Absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I read his reviews for this book. Have you?
And some older reviews:
You guys lucked out with him joining this tour. You’re so lucky that he’s giving away a FREE eBook to every person who comments to this post. And sends me wine.
Ok, ok, I lied about the wine part. But seriously, he is giving away some other free stuff too. A proof copy of the print version of his novel First Chosen along with a special book from his storytelling cape or cloak from Renaissance Faires. I hear both are pretty rare!
Plus, every guess automatically enters you in the drawing to win a free Kindle. After this tour, you are definitely going to need it.
Bottles of red wine sent to me get you extra entries.
Okay, I’m lying again.
But you know, a girl can never have enough wine. Oops, did I give away who I am? Person! I meant to say person can never have enough wine. #oops
Where was I? Oh yeah, kicked back with Stevie (that’s a hint) reading Elena Gray’s Widow Maker. This book is CRAZY GOOD! And it’s not the only incredible book on this tour. After this, I’m hopping back on the Ann Charles bandwagon. I hear we’re going through Deadwood again.
Have I given you enough hints? No? Come on, I can’t tell you everything about me. Okay, just a few more. Did you know that I’m a sucker for love? I’m not really into scary…seriously, I’m not. I know I know, it’s close to Halloween and this is Masquerade…I can’t help it. I live love scenes, hot guys who make beautiful music, and always come through in the end.
Nothing scary about that.
Hmmm, what else?
Music! Can’t forget that! As much as I love Stevie, I don’t go anywhere withoutmy iPod. Anywhere! “The Black One” is probably the mostimportant accessory I carry. Without it, nothing would ever get written. And that’s enough for you. No more hints. Start posting so you can get First Chosen for FREE. (just one more hint, FREE is my favorite word)
And don’t forget to leave your email address. Leave it like this so the SPAMBOTS don’t get ya : haha at trickedyou dot com
Well, I gotta go before Todd gets back. I hope he doesn’t mind the chocolate cookie crumbs and coffee stain I left on his blog.
See ya!
If you do happen to get any of that wine, would you mind bringing it over to Elena Gray's blog and sharing? Commenters have been taunting me with offers of alcohol and even #chocolate but none have come through for me...
ReplyDeleteI will guess Amber Scott has abducted this blog. First Chosen was a very cool book and it would be awesome to have a unique copy and a super unique bookmark.

Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI featured you on my blog post today, trying to help get the word out for you. I posted it on Pinky's Pub facebook page too and will post on Smashwords facebook page a little later today. I don't want it getting buried in the posts there by posting this early.
I am going to guess that it's Belinda Boring behind the mask. Wild guess, but a guess, lol.
Thanks for the fun and the fabulous book!
pinkmaiden821(at)gmail(dot)com
I have no official guess just yet. I need to do a little digging and see if I can figure something out.
ReplyDeleteExcited about the book tho!

hi Todd! it's either Amber or Belinda masquerading as you. Amber more likely. c",)
ReplyDeletemaking a guess and here's looking forward to receiving a copy of your book! thank you very much.
aobibliophile(at)gmail(dot)com
Hey, person trapped at Elena's blog, I will definitely share the wine. Maybe the two of us can convince Todd's guests of the importance of sending wine!
ReplyDeleteWell, this may be a really wild guess, but I am going to guess that M. Todd Gallowglas is masquerading as himself. I'm running out of people! However, I may have to change my mind later. I checked out the "First Chosen" preview on Amazon. It sounds great and I can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteegstanley@gmail.com
@Pinky
ReplyDeleteGood guess and I'm sure Todd is excited about the feature.
I don't know, something tells me this might be Jackie Chanel.
ReplyDelete~angela.citylove@gmail.com
Aww, aobibliophile, great guesses! Being mistaken for Amber was on my bucket list
ReplyDeleteHaha Elizabeth! Good guess! That's a cool idea but I don't know if Todd likes wine as much as me :)
ReplyDeleteI'm going for Jackie Chanel This book sounds great, count me in.
ReplyDeletelvs2dv at gmail dot com
@Angela I don't know about that. I heard a rumor that Jackie Chanel is knee-deep in edits right now. No one has seen her for days.
ReplyDeletelol Bummer about the wine eh?
ReplyDelete:)
Jess
romanceaholic at gmail dot com
Yes, Jess, it truly is. *shakes head sadly*
ReplyDeleteMy guess is it's Amber Scott incognito here today....but I could be wrong, of course.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I would love to read your book First Chosen Todd! Thanks so much!
Lauriej170 at gmail dot com
Candy, I'll make sure you get a copy
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Amber Scott! This is the first time I think I may actually be right, but with my luck, I'm still probably wrong. Oh well! This book sounds great; can't wait to read it!

great post ;-)
My guess, Amber Scott. Am I right? Thank you for this awesome giveaway. My email pringpringles(at)yahoo(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI going to say Amber Scott.
ReplyDeletedivavixenqueen(at)hotmail(dot)com
I am going to guess it's Rachel guest hosting the blog today. I would love to have a copy of the ebook and ecstatic to have a hard copy of the book. Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteladymargaretrose@yahoo.com
Too much confusion this week....*rubs temples*
ReplyDeleteUm, I'm gonna guess Ann.
Saph
saphsbookblog at gmail dot com
I think I've already guessed that Belinda was visiting elsewhere so I'll guess it's Amber Scott here. Just a shot in the dark though. Can't wait to read this book (and the others!).
ReplyDeleteitsyournovel@hotmaildot com
Wine is a must! Hard cider, too! Love the post and the tour. So much fun and so many awesome books.
ReplyDeleteLacey is my guess. thanks for the books. Sorry never bought wine and wont in the future. But I could wine some. rhonda rlrlaney@yahoo.com
ReplyDeletehttp://readalot-rhonda1111.blogspot.com/
Hmm, who would love wine and chocolate? Okay just about every woman. So I'll guess Amber Scott.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway and Todd's book looks so interesting.
Siobhan
nevadafox at gmail dot com
I like to visit each blog just to confuse everyone.
ReplyDeleteI do love me some wine. (ya know, when I'm not having a martini).
Wow, y'all must think I'm a lush. Hey, I have small children. You'd drink, too.
At least the work is #somewhatcoherent.
#teehee
Have fun, peoples.
I have no idea who the guest is. Thank you for doing this and I look forward to reading your book.
ReplyDeletehnwhitlock2000 at gmail dot com
Marsha! I don't think I'm as snarky as Rachel but I do try.
ReplyDeleteJust finished another book from the tour. It's still a little too early for wine, so I'll just have another cup of coffee. What gets coffee out of a blog?
ReplyDeleteYou guys are doing a bang up job with your guesses and Ann and Rachel stopped in to say hi! Cool :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post. This has been a fun week. Look forward to reading your book. Thanks.
ReplyDeletekenla.lord at gmail dot com
I am going to guess that the mystery blogger is Ann Charles. Todd, thank you in advance for First Chosen.
ReplyDeletecmhswi at yahoo dot com
I am going with Ann Charles for this one:-)
ReplyDelete.. Ready to read this book... Sounds great!
Soccerma3@gmail.com
Lindsey
I don't know guys. Last time I checked, Ann was over on Jackie Chanel's blog mixing margaritas. But keep the guesses coming.
ReplyDeleteSo...I'm being swayed by popular opinion...and my mouse is sulking. I guess Amber Scott... I guess I need a do over of the whole Masquerade!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fun and the freebies!
Quinn
Yes, I think Amber might be lurking here trying to fool everyone. Then again, it's done so well, it could be one of the other ten authors! #Doh
ReplyDelete:)
pmccallum99 (at) yahoo.com
This is so fun. I love being here on Todd's blog. It's so different from mine. I could go to sleep here.
ReplyDeleteI also think it's Amber because I'm reading Irish Moon as we speak so I know she loves romance and hot men, and since I got this book for free from her, I also know she likes to give away free ebooks! I hope I'm right:)
ReplyDeleteI am also excited to read Todd's book, so this is a win-win all the way for me!
jwitt33 at live dot com
I'm going to guess that this is Jackie Chanel all snuggled up in this blog. Lemme just refill your wine glass for you!
ReplyDeletemelorabrock {at} gmail {dot} com
I'm having so much fun, so many books! You gotta love Blog Tour de Force!
ReplyDeleteI believe I can see Amber writing that...
readingromances.contactATgmailDOTcom
I'm guessing Rachel? No? Never mind, I'm having a fun time. Thanks!
ReplyDeletetamsyn5@yahoo.com
I am guessing Jackie Chanel...mostly because of her book cover from the main blog hop site =p
ReplyDeletephaedracamille@gmail.com
Wow! And I say again, WOW! Thanks everyone for stopping by!
ReplyDelete@pinky - thanks for the feature on your site.
@Anonymous - I'm not much of a wine guy. I'm more of a Single Malt Scotch man, 15 years or older is my preference.
@everyone - I'll start sending out links to ~First Chosen~ soon. Please be patient; there's a lot more of you than I expected! Not that I'm complaining at all, just awed!
Hmmm I'm going to guess Amber, too!
ReplyDeleteThis book looks fascinating. My email is emilyannward at yahoo dot com. Thanks for the giveaway!
Amber Scott?
ReplyDeletemeghan.guarnieri@gmail.com
I'm running out of people I know... um... Ann? Is that you?
ReplyDeletereikibirth at gmail dot com
I'm going for Amber Scott. This book sounds great, count me in.

Does anybody get that wine? I'm absolutely loving this tour and really looking forward to the book!
ReplyDelete@Marlene - give me your email so I can send you the link.
ReplyDeleteAnn, Amber, Rachel...all great guesses, but I will not confirm nor deny anything until there is a case of wine at my door...or until Monday. Whichever comes first
ReplyDeleteI'm going to guess Ann Charles, just because I haven't guessed her before. I'm so bad at this. At least I'm great at reading, can't wait to check out First Chosen. ~ 1crazycalioc (at) gmail (dot) com
ReplyDeleteI'm going to say it's Amber Scott, very much a guess though. I'm lovin' the sound of this book and greatly appreciate you giving it away for free.

ReplyDeleteAmazing tour so much fun thank you!
tishajean@ charter.net
Hey, someone from Jackie Chanel's blog slipped me a bottle of wine. Now I can really have some fun here.
ReplyDeleteEven bad guesses get you a copy of Todd's book. I'll think I'll start it again. *stretches out on my recliner*
ReplyDeleteWhile I'm completely at a loss as to who to guess for this post, I'm highly entertained. Also definitely interested in reading First Chosen. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleterlconnolly [at] gmail.com
I think I'll go with Belinda this time since I haven't guessed her before. christygibbon at juno dot com

I'm thinking Ann Charles... ummm what type of wine would you like? All I need is your name to put on the shipping label ;)
ReplyDeleteMorganlafey86(at)aol(dot)com
@Rosie Glad you're entertained. This is fun.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous Pleased to meet you. I'm anonymous too. Are you a scorpio? Were we separated at birth?
@John Sometimes I'm not sure who I am either
@ Temperance Is your eye pink? That's...interesting
@InlovewithTwilight Holy Cow, have you seen the Breaking Dawn trailer. Maybe you can read First Chosen while you're waiting in line. Nov 18th baby!
@Krysykat don't worry, my UPS guy & Fedex guy know the address when they see it. :)
I'm torn between Amber Scott and Belinda Boring but I'm going to go with Belinda. This is not as easy as I thought it'd be!
ReplyDeleteromancingthedarkside at gmail dot com
I am guessing Belinda Boring. I am torn between she and Amber Scott like the above poster but am going with Belinda. Oh, I need some of that wine!
ReplyDeletesagemoon_cottage@yahoo dot com
I have no clue, but I would love a copy of First Chosen.
ReplyDeleteThe big reveal is going to be so much fun.

I'm really not very good at guessing at all... but might as well try. My guess at the identity of this guest blogger would be Amber Scott.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

Can I have my blog back??? Pretty please? I Fedexed you a case of wine. The guys said they knew the address.
ReplyDeleteBut I like it here, Todd. It's comfy
ReplyDelete@Bookwyrm Jackie is a good guess BUT I heard that she was wrecking havoc somewhere else. Might be a rumor, might not...I'll never tell. Well, I'll tell you Monday.
ReplyDelete@msmjb65 Hi to you too. I'm excited that you're excited :)
ReplyDelete@JoAnna Guess again. 3rd times a charm
ReplyDeleteHey Lori @ Romancing the Darkside How does one romance the darkside exactly? I may need some tips
ReplyDeleteArdee, help yourself. Todd sent me a whole case.
ReplyDeleteI will guess Amber!
ReplyDeleteennapenglin(at)sbcglobal(dot)net
I am in despair! Here I was having a jolly time at the Masquerade and finely guessing the true identity of the mystery blog takeroverer! Ha! - and then my guess crumbles into dust as I realize it cannot be Ann Charles and once again I realized I am among the clueless, no superiority to lord over all, no bragging rights to my great intellectual achievement realizing I will therefore once again have to resort to bribery. So mystery takeroverer, just fill out the form and leave your name and address and I will happily forward the best bottle of red available at my corner 7-11 direct to your door. Not falling for it huh, well I will make another guess are you Lacy Weatherford? If not I will still be drinking a steaming cuppa with a splash of Irish cream in your honor and toasting you with a baby Snickers for the fun you have provided me this evening and to Todd, thank you so much for participating in this fun Masquerade and for your incredible generosity in sharing First Chosen with us. I look forward benefiting from you kindness with the reading of what sounds like a very good book.

ReplyDeleteticklebear2 at yahoo dot com
My guess is Amber, since I know she loves wine very much. Although it could be Rachel cos I also know she likes martini's. But I think I'll stick with Amber.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading First Chosen. GL with the tour everyone!

Okay, I read all the blogs and I think I got at least a few of the "maskateers" figured out. Can I put 12 posts on each blog for each author to have my bases covered??? :P LOL :) Crossing my fingers for the Kindle, so I can share it with my neice!
ReplyDeleteI love the Blog Tour de Force!! This is the 4th I've participated in. I'm on a very limited income, so this is a great way to get some free books and I've discovered some great new authors I didn't know before!! Looking forward to discovering more authors through this Tour!
Well - here goes: My "maskateer" guess is Jackie Chanel
Can't wait to read all these wonderful books!!
