Today is Elder‘s official book birthday! *tosses confetti* *pops the champagne cork*
First and foremost, I’ll let you know that the book is now available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble and will soon be available at Kobo. To purchase Elder on Amazon, click here. To purchase it on Barnes & Noble, click here. I can’t wait to hear what you think once you’ve had a chance to read it!
It’s hard to believe that the second Estilorian trilogy is coming to an end. After six books and a short story, I’ve grown so attached to these characters and their world. I won’t say this is the absolute end for the Estilorian series, but I will be moving on to other projects in 2013. So this is a bittersweet moment for me, I must admit!
With this being such a momentous book release, it deserves much fanfare and attention. Although I couldn’t get a host of swoon-worthy male models to pose for an Estilorian-inspired pic we could all drool over, I do have some amazing prizes to give away at the end of the Elder launch tour. Be sure to enter (Rafflecopter form below). I’d love for one of my fans to win!
I’d like to take a moment to thank these truly awesome authors and bloggers for participating in the tour. Please drop by their blogs and help support the Estilorians–you might win the giveaway in the process!

Today also happens to be my nephew and godson, Nathan’s, birthday. Since Elder is dedicated to him, he helped me decide on the launch date. Let’s all toast him and Sarah Evans from Sarah’s Books and Life Blog, who happen to share the same birthday!
I’ll leave you with the Elder trailer, created by the extremely talented Matt Landis of Flatline Films, and the giveaway entry form, along with my most heartfelt thanks for all of the support you’ve shown the Estilorians since their initial release. I have the best fans in the world!!!
Just finish reading Elder! It’s 3:30 in the morning, but I did it! I have to say it was an amazing end to this series and I’m so happy with the ending! I will truly miss this wonderful series but I look forward to what Raine has in store. Congratulations on wonderful series, that has been one of my favorites to read and to wait for. Can’t wait for your next book!
Wow…that’s just awesome to hear, Brooke! Thanks so much for reading Elder and taking the time to let me know what you thought. So very glad you enjoyed it!!

Raine, I loved it. It was an amazing story to end the best of stories. Looking forward to other works from you.
(PS: I’m also going to keep monitoring based on your comment above that this may not be the absolute end for the Estilorian series… :)
I truly appreciate your support and feedback, Alisa! It’s nice having characters who never age. You never know what might happen… ;)

Many thanks, Julia!
I’ve read all of the books in the Saraquel’s Daughters series but i haven’t been able to find any books from the Firstborn series in any of my local bookstores :(. I loved Saraquel’s Daughters series, hoping I win so I can read the others.
But congratz! and I’m hoping that I can read more of your books in the future :D
I’m sorry to hear that! The Firstborn trilogy is available everywhere the Daughters of Saraqael trilogy is sold. Best of luck in the giveaway!

Yay, Jenny!!! Well, you certainly just made my whole weekend with your awesome comments. :D Thanks so much for checking out Elder and letting me know what you think!!
Raine!
So happy that I was able to take part of this blog tour. Loved Elder and I totally geeked out when I saw that I was quoted in the book trailer. That was quite the surprise (honored). Can’t wait to see what books you have planned for us next. Though, it will be tough to say goodbye to the Estilorian world. Not gonna lie. But knowing you, I know there will be swoonworthy male leads ahead for us to read about, or at least I hope so, haha. Love your writing :)
It wouldn’t have been the same without you, Jennifer! You’ve been a part of the Estilorians from book one. So glad you were available to help launch Elder! :)
