1.) It’s funny.
Her sister had been
dragged away to some hideous supernatural version of Fight Club and
she was daydreaming about the love of a demon. Someone ought to smack
her.
“Ow!” She rubbed
her forehead where she’d just bumped it on a low hanging tree root.
“Stupid karma.”
2.) It’s sexy.
They were panting
and sweating, bruised and bloody and desperate as hell. He looked
into her eyes, a stark look of pure lust – dark and sensual but
full of possession. He was taking his war prize. And she was it.
3.) Its adventurous.
Then the worg
charged. There was no way her lame protection circle would do a lick
of good against such a powerful attack. So she did what every other
red-blooded American girl would. She ran like hell.
4.) It’s romantic.
Everything he wanted
in a woman, he’d found in Samantha. Courage, intelligence, a sense
of humor, a kind heart. She was that and more. He hadn’t known he
liked freckles that appeared in the sunlight. Or waking to a husky
voice, thick with sleep, in the morning. Or the little spot between
two eyebrows that crinkled with deep thought. Flirty smiles, playful
surrender in the bedroom, a cute, spankable ass, amber eyes, curly
hair he wanted to grab in handfuls – gods, everything!
5.) And sometimes
sad.
More than once, she
had stared out the window, wishing, hoping he’d miraculously
appear, wearing that sexy half-grin and flashing his smoldering eyes.
But he never appeared. And when the vision faded, it left her
crumpled in a ball, fighting back deep, angry sobs.
6.) There’s a cool
animal sidekick.
A giant…dog
would’ve been an understatement, flew out of the shadowy corner and
landed on thick paws in front of her. Pitch black in color, covered
in bulging muscle, it bared its oversized teeth and snarled. Holy
mutant flea bag!
She crab-walked
backward a few feet, never taking her eyes off the beast, until she
felt her sword under her hand. “Nice doggie.” The thing’s eyes
glowed red as it stared at her weapon. “Nice possessed doggie.”
7.) There’s a sexy
demon.
“Dance
with me,” she commanded.
His
brows lifted.
“Come
on.” She grabbed his hand and tugged.
With
a smirk, he let her pull him to his feet.
“Just
put your hands here and here.” She guided his hands to her hip and
shoulder but he yanked out of her grip.
“I
know how to dance, woman,” he growled. Then he plopped both hands
on her low back, just above her backside, and yanked her up against
his body.
8.) You get to meet
Aedan, a rockin’ hero from a later book in the series.
Aedan spoke around
mouthfuls of food. “I tried to usurp the Unseelie throne,” he
said unapologetically. “I’m down here learning my lesson.
Repenting. All that shit.”
9.) There’s a
reprise of characters from earlier books.
Sage? How she’d
changed from the insecure girl Sam had once met. The stone guard ran
toward the queen. With a simple squeeze of her fist, they crumbled to
dust. She huffed as if blowing a kiss and a gust of wind swept
through the arena, blowing the dust into the air. The mountain shook
again, chunks of rock plunged to the ground. She was bringing down
the whole damn place.
10.) Did I mention
there was a sexy demon?
“You shouldn’t
tease a demon. We have different rules about payback.”
She arched a brow.
“Thought you weren’t a demon?”
He kissed each peak.
“In bed, I am.” Before she could make another smart-ass remark,
he nibbled his way down her side, holding her down when she squirmed.
At the apex of her
thighs, he looked up and grinned. “Lie still, love, so I can make
you scream.”

About the author:

So
I spent the next four hours on an airplane writing my first book on
scraps of paper and an airsick bag (which thankfully I didn't need to
use).
Now
I spend too much time in my head, plotting evil villains and the hot
men (and women) who ruthlessly kill them. I think far too much about
fae politics, dragon power games, and how fast werewolves can change
forms. But writing my paranormal romance series has given me a
productive place to express those dark places in my mind.
I
live in New England with my husband and two kids. Though I will go to
my grave denying it, my husband insists I would be thrilled if he
suddenly sprouted fangs.
