Yes, a couple of you guessed what the special anniversary giveaway was about and you were right! Here’s your chance to read Pride before its release date of February 1st, 2009. 😉
As Rachel Vincent’s critique partner, I’ve already read this and it’s my favorite of the first three books. You are definitely in for a treat!
So, to win one of these ARCs, all you have to do is leave a comment. You have until Friday, December 5th at midnight. (Oh, and here’s a little tip–Rachel will be giving one away on her blog as well, so you’ll get two tries this week!)
You can read an excerpt of this book here, but check out the blurb!
Here’s hoping cats do have nine lives
I’m on trial for my life. Accused of infecting my human ex-boyfriend—and killing him to cover up the crime. I’m not guilty. But tell that to the panel of Alphas sitting in judgment. Infecting a human is one of three capital offenses recognized by the Pride—along with murder and disclosure of our existence to a human.
I’m two for three. A goner.
On top of that, Marc is in danger of being tossed from the Pride, then we discovered a rogue stray terrorizing the mountainside, hunting a wild teenage tabbycat. I think I can protect her from both the ambitious rogue and the scheming of the territorial council.
If I survive my own trial…
Edit: I got my copy of the ARC in the mail today. The dedication made me tear up. Back at ya, sweetie!
Sounds totally yummy! And did I mention I love your new pictures…
Thanks! Kathy did a fantastic job. I just love them. 😉
The first two were awesome! Count me in 🙂
I can’t wait to read this book. I loved the first 2. Thanks for a great contest.

I only recently got into this series, but they’re fantastic and reading the excerpt was such a tease – I’m so exited but with nothing more to read!!
I loved Rogue and I’ve been eagerly awaiting Pride. Plus my birthday’s on Saturday and this would be an AWESOME gift! 😀 Thanks for having the contest, Rinda!
If you’re willing to post to Australia, I’d love to be in the running, please 🙂

I would love to get an ARC of Pride. I review for a site called Bitten by Books. On the subject of your last post you can check out my review of Jenna Black’s The Devil’s Due</A. there as well. Just to see if I’m on the level if nothing else 🙂

Oh, isn’t Rachel’s books wonderful? I can’t wait (unless I have to 😦 ) to get my hands on this next book. Ieeeee! So excited.
I would love an arc! Can’t wait for Pride or Prey. What sort of books do you write Rinda?
Dying to read this whether I win an ARC or not. It would be so nice to read this EARLY.
WOW!!!! And this is just the first day! I’m glad everyone is so excited about Pride. It’s good… and so is Prey! (I’m such a tease!)
A couple have asked about my work. I write urban fantasy among other things. I’m not currently published in book length fiction, but my agent is now marketing my first series, so I’m hopeful I will be soon. You can read more in the Who Am I tab above.
A funny fact for you all– Rachel and I hooked up as critique partners after she gave me a CRAZY topic challenge and I wrote Now They Run From Valen Greer–also in the tabs.
I’m so happy to see you all excited about her next book. 😉
How fun to be running the contests at the same time. I would love to be entered in the contest. It must be really great being Rachel’s critique partner…how does someone go about becoming critique partners with someone?
I would love to receive the ARC of Pride. I love this series I’m holding back from reading the excerpt…
I can’t wait to read the book!
Lori T, it depends. The best place to meet potential critique partners is at writer’s meetings. Rachel and I met online first even though we were both members of the Oklahoma Romance Writers. She won a topic challenge, gave me a CRAZY topic and I wrote the Valen Greer piece in the tabs. She asked if I wanted to work with her and that was more than two years ago. We have very intense writing schedules, so it seems to work well with just two of us since it’s a lot of last minute.
I wrote up two guest blogs for her with actual comments from our critique sessions. She posted them a few weeks ago. One is kind of funny and one shows how hard the work can be. 🙂
i would love to enter.
id luv to get an arc!!!
enter me, please!
I have just found this series and am excited to read them all. I would love to be in the contest and looking forward to you getting your full length fiction published.
I love your books! I cant wait for the newest one! to win an ARC would satisfy that urge so much quicker! haha
I Hope I win a copy of Pride! Rachel’s books always get released later in Europe!
I would love an ARC, the series is amazing.
Sounds awesome! Please sign me up to win a copy and thanks! Happy Holidays to you.
I would love an ARC…here’s hoping I win.

Please include me in the contest. I love Rachel’s books!
Maria
I would love a copy!! I picked up Stray because I read the first few pages in the store and there was not only my home state of Texas, but UNT my alma mater! I became instantly hooked. I flew through Stray and Rogue finishing both in a little over a day. Please…I would love an ARC!!!
I’ve also bookmarked you so that I can keep up to date as to when your series comes out! I know that you said that it’s being marketed now but I have faith! Good luck!!
I’d love to win one of these ARCs. Put my name in the hat, please.

Whee–another chance to win! Love it.
I so want one. It looks awesome.
PICK ME!!
I CAN’T WAIT FOR THIS BOOK!!! SO I GOTTA HAVE ONE!
I WOULD LOVE A COPY
I would really love to win this ARC. I desperately want to know what sort of turn Marc and Fayth’s relationship is going to take. I can’t wait to read Pride because I love the excerpt and I love reading what sort of trouble Fayth gets herself into.
ooo pick me!
I have read both Stray and Rogue at least 4 times each and loved both books.
I love the way Faythe says it like it is and if you dont’t like it tought s___.
The way you write the stories make me not want to stop reading until I am done.
I was disapointed that Pride delivery date moved from the fall to Febuary but anythig that is this good is worth waiting for. I read the first chapter on your website and can”t wait till she partial shifts in front of them.
I am on pins and needles waiting for Pride and Prey.
Thanks for all the hours of entertainment from reading your books.
Rick Wheeler
I can’t wait to read it. I’m hoping to win this because I think I’ll emplode if I have to wait till Feb. Well…. not really, but it feels like it. I absolutely love your style of writing. It feels like I’m right there watching everything play out. Not many people have that tallent of making the readers feel like there with the characters, but you totally pull it off. Good luck on the next book (not that you really need it), and I hope you have a good weekend.
Yes, please. Thank you!
Great on getting your (Rachel’s) ARC! Would love to be in for it too! Its so exciting when a new one in the series is out. Its fun to celebrate when its out and then when its reading, its like leaving all behind during devouring the book! Its a great cycle for each book, LOL. Love it!
These books are great. I really enjoyed the Stray and Rogue, and can’t wait to read Pride and Prey.
I’m not sure whether you’ll post to Scotland- but its such a great contest that i figured i’d enter anyway! Love the series and thanks for the contest!
I would love to read Pride. 🙂
Would LOVE to read the novel sooner than later…

Betty Sanders is commenting, because she screwed up and commented on the wrong post the first time. HeHe. Life is good.
Love to get this early, especially now that you’ve said it’s the best.
