Amber Will Be A Guest At CLEXACON 2019 In Las Vegas This April

2/26/2019

A few days ago Amber confirmed via her official Twitter account that she is to be one of the special guests at CLEXACON 2019 in Las Vegas. CLEXACON is the first and largest multi-fandom event which aims to bring together LGBTQ fans, allies and content creators to celebrate positive representations of LGBTQ women in media.

As many of you will know Amber played the role of Tara Maclay in Buffy the Vampire Slayer together with Alyson Hannigan (Willow). They played the first openly gay couple on a US network television show. Amber played the role of Tara with both honesty and sensitivity, which earned her much deserved praise. The role had a big impact on her life, and Amber continues to support the LGBTQ community to this day. Amber is excited to be attending this year but rather than paraphrase or quote her I’ve included a link to her original tweet, click here.

CLEXACON 2019 will be held on 11th-15th of April 2019. At Tropicana Hotel Las Vegas Nevada: 3801 Las Vegas Blvd S. Las Vegas, NV 89109.

Double Whammy Audiobook Is Re-Released & Narrated By Amber Benson

1/20/2019

Earlier this week Audible re-released Double Whammy the first book in Gretchen Archer's Davis Way Crime Caper Series. This new version is narrated by Amber Benson. In 2014 Amber narrated Double Dip the second book in the series taking over from Dina Pearlman who had narrated Double Whammy when it was first released in 2013.

Amber has gone on to narrate the next five books in the series:
Double Strike
Double Mint
Double Knot
Double Up
Double Dog Dare

If you're not familiar with the series it centers on Davis Way who is part of the elite security team at Bellissimo Resort and Casino in Biloxi Mississippi. Davis and her team have dealt with thieves, con men, murderers and more while risking life and limb more than once.

Last year Double Whammy was rereleased to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the beginning of the series. The audiobook version has been re-released and Amber has the chance to take us right back to the beginning as we meet Davis for the first time.

Davis the new recruit on the security team runs into her ex-ex-husband while trying to tackle rigged slot machines. Things take a darker turn beginning with a case of mistaken identity and a trail of dead bodies. Luckily for Davis help is at hand from Bradley Cole her landlord, lawyer and just maybe her love interest too.

This newly released version of Double Whammy is exclusive to Audible.

Double Whammy audiobook is unabridged. The audiobook is available to buy from Audible both here in the UK click here and in the USA click here, both sites offer the facility to buy the audiobook for a one-off fee for non-members.

Audible also offers a range of packages where in return for a regular monthly fee a user is entitled to download Double Whammy as well as access to a vast library of audiobooks also available on the site. The number of books you can download in the month will depend upon your individual package, for full details see the respective Audible websites.

Amber uses her vocal talents and lets loose her lovely southern accent to really bring the characters off the page I'm really looking forward to hearing Double Whammy for the first time.
