AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT & GIVEAWAY: Lily G. Blunt
Our last, but certainly not least, author to help us close out the Kimmers’ Erotic Book Banter's six month blog-iversary celebration is non-other than Lily G. Blunt.
Let me tell you Lily is one tireless supporter. Of other authors, bloggers, benefits, and the LGBTQ community as a whole. Her care and compassion to give to those around her knows no bounds and it shows.
I myself aspire to be as passionate as Lily is and to that end I must apologize. Apologize that I have not completely lived up to giving her the same level of support in return.
Regardless of the reasons behind it my review of her recent release, Let Your Heart Decide, did not make it to the blog site, and in return, did not get promoted as it so graciously deserved. For this I am truly sorry! I can only say that a mistake was made and I own up to that.
Not only will I be posting my review on Thursday, July 7th but as such I am personally purchasing, and giving away, 3 eBook formats of Let Your Heart Decide to 3 very lucky winners. All you need to do is post a comment to this article below, ON THE BLOG PAGE, as to why you would like to read this story. All names will be placed in a drawing and 3 random winners will be selected on Monday, July 11th. Once announced I will loop back with you for exchange.
NOTE: This giveaway will most likely be coming from a retailer other than Amazon. But I am more than happy to help you get the book to your eReader.
May this gesture somehow go a little way to show that I do truly pride myself on supporting the fabulous authors who so tirelessly give so much of themselves to us via the work they poor into their books and the community.
So, Lily. Quite the selection she has going. And I have had the distinct pleasure of reading two of her most recent works. Works which are quite different than the other.
Finding Love the Perfect Size for You sees Ty, a male escort, assisting a closeted, virginal Andy.
Hoping to express his attraction to another man, Andy thinks Ty is just the person to “prepare” him.
Where this hook-up leads, neither male could have expected.

Lily's Let Your Heart Decide, being a brotherly love tale, may not be for everyone. You most definitely must have, and keep, an open mind.
This story however is beautiful in its simplicity yet poignant in its message. Love knows no bounds.
Add to that a little haunting mystery as a backdrop and you have a very engaging read that keeps you entertained throughout.
And….
Right now during the month of July, at Smashwords, Lily's Let Your Heart Decide, Paint the Sky, and Peindre le Ciel are available at half price, 50% OFF, if you use the code: SSW50.
But let us not forget one truly awesome work of Lily’s that immensely reflects the person she is. Immediately after the Pulse Orlando shooting took place, Lily rallied the troops and started an anthology benefit. Read Lily's blogpost here: https://lilygblunt.wordpress.com/2016/06/13/love-is-love-poetry-anthology-in-aid-of-the-pulse-victims/
A book that will be comprised of poems from published and unpublished authors alike, the Love is Love Poetry Anthology has an intended release date sometime in July with all proceeds benefiting the Equality Florida Pulse Orlando Victims Fund.
To remain informed about the books progression and official release date feel free to join the Facebook group and stay tuned to Lily’s blog.
As you can see, Lily is one busy lady. But she was gracious enough to leave two of our lucky readers a chance at winning. One person will receive an eBook choice of Lily’s backlist while one UK winner will receive a signed paperback of their choice from Lily’s work. Good luck to all of you!
I want to thank all of the authors who helped us celebrate the past couple of weeks. Without you Kimmers’ Erotic Book Banter would not even be here today and I am humbled you took the time out of your busy schedules to show your support.
And to all the readers, we hope you have enjoyed the Spotlights and will give these great authors the benefit of a read and review. Reviews are the life blood to an authors work.
As the celebration draws to a close I will be selecting winners today, July 5th, at 5:00 CST/United States and will be posting thereafter. So, take this last opportunity to sign-up to be entered to win. I will loop back with each winner for exchange of their prizes.
We hope that you will stick around and continue to enjoy Kimmers’ Erotic Book Banter blog. You can look forward to a monthly Newsletter from here forward along with our regular features such as Sunday Steals & Deals, Monday Mentions, and Taboo Tuesday. And July is shaping up to be really hot as we have a host of reviews, cover reveals and blog tours scheduled in the upcoming weeks.
Good luck and good reading!
Lily G. Blunt writes contemporary gay romance. She loves to explore the relationship between two men and the intensity of their physical and emotional attraction. Angst often features in her stories as she feels this demonstrates the depth of the men’s feelings for each other. Lily is forever writing imaginary scenes and plots in her head, but only a few ever make it to the page. There never seems to be enough hours in the day despite having left the teaching profession to concentrate on her writing!
Lily discovered the wonderful world of m/m romance novels five years ago via fan fiction and went on to write stories in her spare time. With the encouragement of her friends and readers she decided to publish some of her work. Lily subsequently self-published several stories via Amazon and later published short stories with Torquere Press, Wayward Ink Publishing, and Pride Publishing.
