    Can I say I was SOOOO glad to see you weren’t in the Romance category. Dimitri vs Hawke vs Dragos was bad enough, if Curran would have been in there I don’t know that I could have made a decision!

    I went into my goodreads account and voted for you guys. I’m not sure what it says about me but I couldn’t vote for every category and there were only two of the authors listed that I had read their book that was nominated. Yours and one other author I voted on, luckly you two weren’t in the same categories so no problems. There were some authors that I like but hadn’t read the book listed so I have a lot of reading to do. But hey you got my vote as I love all the books I’ve read that you wrote.

    That is some awesome company that you have in that category. But the LOVE that is Kate & Curran PLUS the added bonus of a Curran POV just made the decision all that more quickly ;)

    Now trying to pick a POV scene from what you’ve given? THAT’s HARD. *sigh* No preference honestly, what you’ve given us has always been marvelous!!!!!!!!

    Choosing just one Curran POV was tough. Any one of those scenes looks awesome.

    I would love to read the Julie saving scene! Curran seemed pretty pissed about it after, so I want to know how it went down for him as Kates POV is so foscussed on the blood.

    The POV that I really, REALLY want to see is one where Curran has his claws on Aunt B’s throat informing her that if she ever interferes in Kate’s clan again, ie: Andrea or Julie, she will find out just how alpha he can get.
    And it was only repect for the mother of his mate’s best friend’s mate that kept him from ripping her head off right now for almost getting his adopted daughter killed.
    Now that would be a POV to read!

    I already voted as well and I was happy to vote for you guys – especially since I really love your books, especially the ones released this year. (Well, for Kate, I think I like books 3 and 4 slightly better than 5, but I do like how you dealt with the relationship changes).

    I’m back to re-reading all the Kate books again since I now have them on the kindle as well as “real” books. It’s great going back to the beginning of the series and “knowing” more about a scene by having already read the POVs and the later books.

    I have realized though that there are SO MANY Curran POVs that I would love to read. I would absolutely love the one’s listed but I would also really enjoy:

    Curran’s reaction to Kate having control of Derek in Magic Strikes
    Curran’s thoughts when Bran kisses Kate in Magic Burns
    Curran’s reaction to Kate control of a power word in Magic Burns
    Curran’s POV at the end of Magic Burns…

    there are just SO MANY…

    Is Gordon bribable to do a whole book of Curran POVs?
    THAT would be AWESOME!!!
