It’s out!

June 26, 2012 by Jeaniene Frost 48 Comments

As the subject line states, Once Burned is now available! I’m thrilled to have it out in the wild and I hope you enjoy Vlad and Leila’s story. Note: Audiobook readers, there’s a glitch where, as of now, it’s not available on Audible.com or iTunes. My publisher is working to get that fixed asap.

As a reminder, here is where I’ll be this week to celebrate the release. If you’re in any of these areas, I hope to see you! If you aren’t local to these stores, never fear: The Malaprops event tonight is being livestreamed so you can listen in and ask me questions. Links below for more details.

ETA: If you want a SIGNED copy of Once Burned, Malaprops still has some. Order here:  http://www.malaprops.com

    I got the ebook from B&N last night at 10:36 PM MST. Read the entire thing in one sitting. When UPS delivers the paperback from Amazon today will reread the whole thing in one sitting (again)! Have to say I really loved this one Jeaniene and I’m looking forward to reading more about Vlad and Leila.

    Another good book. Was hoping for Vlad’s POV but he is quite out spoken. 😀 Totally left it up for book 2. Was also hoping for more then a flash of the “gang”. And was REALLY hoping for a teaser for book 7. 🙁 But good non-the-less!

    I woke up at midnight last night just to read it when it was delivered to my kindle- I read it in 3 hours! It was excellent, I really liked Leila and can’t wait to learn more about Vlad. I’m probably going to read it again tonight. Do I really have to wait a year for the next book??? AAAAAAAAAAAAA

    Happy release day Jeaniene!! Ugh I kept on missing the live chat event. So tired today, I didn’t sleep till 3 o’clock in the morning. At exactly 12:01 A.M on the dot, I immediately logged on my kindle and started on the book right away. Trying my hardest to savor the chapters by reading it very very slowly, but I don’t know how long I could do it.

    I’ve always been a fan of Bones, but now I’ve changed my mind. Move away Crispin, make room for Vlad! He’s such a gorgeous bad@ass…Could hardly wait for the next book (going to be a long torturous wait)

    I got my eBook on June 27 and read it in a couple of hours. The next book will only be out in Spring 2013 (*pulling hair*).. Meanwhile, what are your other books which will be out this year? I’ve tried to search for the next release date of anything written by you.. but couldn’t find the dates.. I have to say I LOVE YOUR BOOKS! Team Bones? Team Vlad? Arggh! Congratulations on yet another wicked accomplishment!

    OH MY GOD!!!!! Once again Jeaniene you have blown away my mind, and you did not disappoint. But then again I never believed that you could!!!!!! Oh Vlad 🙂 he is soooo overly confindent and arrogant isn’t he? But damn I love him, well technically I love you (and I do…trust me I do) because you made him up but let a girl dream and let’s say that I LOVE HIM(cuz I do…I really do!!)
    But the again I love all of your characters(Bones….yummmm)
    But really 2013…. Ima die you know, from waiting. But then again like Cat would say, if I was for e to wait, the pleasure would be all the more delicious! Ahhh I just get all happy just thinking about it…. Let’s hope that the months passes by fast and my iPad doesn’t break from the constant pressing of replay of all your books!
    Well I really love you and I really wished you would come to Miami!!!!
    LOVE YOU (team Vlad………….defiantly….yummm)

    Just finished reading Once Burned and I thought it was AWESOME. I love Vlad but I must say THANK YOU for adding another kick-ass heroine in Leila. She’s just amazing. I wish I can do some time traveling to get the second book in 2013 because I’m impatient to know their story next.

    PS: I would love to see the list of the songs Leila used to block out the vampires to reading her mind :D. Do they all come from the 80’s?

    I read the book the 26th and 27th and finished it. So sad not to know what happens when Vlad comes back into the room. He is so much more than I imagined from all the Cat and Bones books. He is just TOO LARGE, MORE THAN LIFE SIZED IN MY MIND. Could not get enough. The only problem I see is I purchased the e-book through Amazon.com. I am sorry to say that the editing was abhorent. There are so many mistakes in the book that sometimes I did have a difficult time staying on track. Please contact your editor and have them look into the person who edited the book. I really loved it even with the typos. Can’t wait to find out more.

    Just finished, and I must say I love Leila. She’s a full blooded woman, sexy, strong, and with just the right touch of darkness to be interesting.
    And Vlad? I always liked him more than Bones. He didn’t show all he’s worth (although he’s as arrogant, as I expected), but, fortunately, he still has time. It’s only fist book in this series, after all.

    Sorry to say, but… well, I was also disappointed with some of his ways. And it’s not a matter of morality or ethics – fear is a formidable weapon and sometimes a ruler has to be cruel and make his enemies fear him. It can save more than a few lives.
    The point is, torture can work, if you need specific information from someone. But torture to determine whether someone is guilty or not? Please! If you torture people long enough, they will eventually say anything you want to hear, just to escape the pain (Ever heard about Inquisition and witch trials? They never sentenced people to death without confession. And how many of their victims really were guilty?). Anyway, people will confess, even if they are innocent. Or they can hold on long enough, even if they are guilty. Either way – it doesn’t prove anything. If someone says differently, one’s either stupid or likes to hurt people any time he has a chance (exactly like Rend).
    And Vlad really should know it.

    Vlad came out on my birthday, June 26! I got to the bookstore and searched for Once Burned. It wasn’t on the shelf. I was so worried that I’d have to wait until they got it in. I went to the “help” desk, but the lady was crazy busy. So I assulted her push cart of books yet to be shelved. I found it and happily trotted of to have a very fantastic birthday reading all about Vlad 😀

    Tha is what happens when you post a response without checking it,after reading through Vlad(*sigh…sigh*)and Laila’s book.

    I wonder when leather pants will come back in for men in a big way…well,a girl can hope…Laila may just be falling in love,but I am truly smitten!!!Woof!

    Hy Jeaniene; first of all I would like to congratulate you for your books which are absolutely breathtaking. I would really want to know if after ONE GRAVE AT A TIME will come more books about BONES and CAT, of course and if so when will that happen?
    Thanks a lot, I hope we will have time for an answer and keep up the good work.
