Weekend Writing Warriors from A Tempest of Passion #shifters #regencyromance

Happy Sunday, everyone!

I'm sharing yet another snippet from A Tempest of Passion as I'm not ready to share any from my current WIP just yet.

I'm continuing in the same scene. Emily is non too pleased William is there, but things could change... What can I say, I'm a sucker for a beautiful smile :)

Enjoy!

Abruptly, he turned away, a small smile playing on his lips as if he knew something she ignored.
 Emily shifted in her seat, searching for words to dismiss the unpleasant man. 
“Your parents…?” he asked.
“Have gone for a walk,” she responded mechanically. “It is their routine at this hour. I shall tell them you have called.”
“Please do. Though, it is you I have come to see. After I found you unconscious on the terrace and brought you back inside, I lost sight of you and wanted to see how you were faring.” 

He smiled at her, a brilliant, earnest smile that had her taking back her thoughts on his appearance.

A Tempest of Passion Emily Bunsbury is most definitely not a fainter. She prefers to leave that sort of shenanigans to young debutants and to those desperate to land a husband. She is neither. Except last night she passed out and was rescued by none other than the town’s most eligible bachelor: William Dalton. Of course, she wants nothing to do with him, but her heart and body don’t seem to be in agreement… Banished from his pack for a crime he did not commit, William Dalton does not have the desire or the time to court women, yet, when he meets Emily Bunsbury he is incapable of staying away. Certain that it is nothing more than a passing fancy and not the mating pull, he pursues her. However, as the unknown threat that expelled him from his pack strikes again, William realizes that Emily means much more and he must keep her safe. Now, if only she’d agree to his terms… As danger grows with each passing day, will the couple learn to trust each other or will their love be nothing more than a temporary tempest of passion?

Weekend Writing Warriors from A Tempest of Passion #shifters #regencyromance

Happy Sunday, everyone! and Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there!

Quarantine has finally gotten to me an I've dyed my hair. Hahaha. It was supposed to be a reddish brown but it's turned out a darker shade than I would have liked. Hopefully it'll fade soon.


If you still haven't joined my Facebook group, make sure you stop by. I'm holding a special Mother's Day Giveaway there.

Last but obviously not least, on to today's snippet. I've jumped a few lines but we're still in the same scene as last week. Made some changes to keep to the Weekend Writing Warriors guidelines.

Enjoy!

“Mr. Dalton, I am indebted to you for I do not know what came over me last night, but I have been told that my well-being is your responsibility.  I am most grateful for your assistance.”

William smiled broadly, the motion pulling the mark beneath his eye. Emily’s breath caught and she curled her hands into tight balls at her side, aghast against the unexpected urge to touch that blemished flesh.

“It was but my duty to rescue you from the cold, heartless floor, Ms. Bunsbury,” William said with a jovial grin. Clasping his hands behind his back, he waited for her to say something.

Emily only clamped her jaws together, desperately searching for words. Speechless.  Only one other time in her life had she been unable to speak under a man’s gaze, and back then she had been but a naïve girl of ten and eight years. Now, she was twenty and eight years, a wiser woman who knew what a perusal like the one Mr. Dalton gave her meant. He was like all others: thoughtless to a woman’s desires and mind, only curious to what lay beneath skirts and petticoats.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy.

In case anyone is interested, I've created a Facebook group. You can find the link to join at the bottom of the post.

On to today's snippet! Since everyone seemed to enjoy last week's snippet from A Tempest of Passion, I'm continuing more or less from where we left off. Her servant has left her alone with Mr. Dalton and they're holding a bit of a staring contest...

Enjoy!

He was watching her, like a dog deciding what end of the bone to chew on first. Irked, she stared back. William Dalton’s features had no finesse, to be honest, he reminded her of a wild dog. His hair was unruly and too long, the lines of his face were angular and rough. His lips were too wide, his nose too narrow and his left cheek disfigured by an ugly pink scar extending from below his eye to the edge of his mouth. Then there was the matter of his eyes. Dark and unreadable, they had an air about them that spoke of a man with little joy in his life. Emily shuddered. It mattered little to her that this was the man that had “saved” her last night. It was time for him to leave.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

How are you all holding up? I'm doing well, though working more on the day job than usual and finding little time to write.

In any case, today I'm sharing a snippet from an oldie: A Tempest of Passion.

Enjoy! Stafe Safe!

Careless of manners, Emily sank back onto the window bench. Suddenly, she did feel poorly––her heart beat too fast, and her hands were cold and clammy. Emily stared at Mr. Dalton as he straightened his posture. She shivered. William Dalton was by no means the most handsome man she had ever set eyes on … but there was something about him that unnerved her. 
“Thank you, Gertrude,” she said, finding her voice at last. “Close the door.”
“But, Ms. Bunsbury––”
Emily resisted the urge to roll her eyes. When would they learn that she was past her prime?

“Her.”
He ground out the words, unable to tear his gaze from the pair. The man tugged the woman by the hand. She walked a step behind him, twisting the strap of her purse and keeping her head bowed.  Fear rolled off in waves from her. Sisu growled. His teeth pricked his bottom lip as they transformed. The wolf within him howled in victory. 

“Sisu.” Lee grasped his forearm in a punishing grip. “I don’t know what the fuck is happening, but I can imagine, look at me.”

A couple walked into the room. The man was tall, scrawny, and reeked of human, but the woman was something different. His mouth watered. Even within the hundreds of smells permeating Moon Point, he could pick out her scent. Sweet, like ripe strawberries. Tempting, like fresh mango fruit. He sniffed the air. There was something else, musky, piquant, delicious.  The wolf within him surged, slamming against his chest. What the hell?

Weekend Writing Warrior from Spread (Lust, Love and Darkness) #BDSM #DarkRomance

Hi everyone! Happiest and healthiest Sunday to all. I've been missing out on Weekend Writing Warriors not only due to the stress of the situation but also because if you guys recall my computer was giving me a lot of problems, so doing more than the minimum on it was taking eons. Luckily, I have a great sister who lent me the money to buy a new laptop, so I'm back!

Today, I'm sharing a snippet from Spread (Lust, Love and Darkness) which is nominated for book of the month at The TBR Pile (any votes much appreciated). I've been working on book 3 and I hope to have it finished soon. Madrid is on lockdown, but I'm working from home which is eating up a lot of my free time.

Stay safe and enjoy reading!

Hands trembling, she put on her headphones and opened the music app on her phone. The loud rock riffs surrounded her, obliterating every sound from the exterior but still incapable of shutting down the turmoil in her brain. She grabbed a handful of cereal and stuffed it into her mouth. The crunch mingled with the melody, but still she couldn’t keep him at bay.  Antonio.  His name flashed in her subconscious. Loud. Bold. Present when he should be gone. Her stomach clenched, and she belched, acid bile rising to the back of her throat.  “Fuck.” She knew this would happen.

Four days.

That’s the amount of time Betty has to hang on to her sanity. The time she needs until another of Antonio’s deathversaries rolls by. Four more days before the nightmares subside and the memories return to the past.

The problem is life around her doesn’t stop, and when she meets Rayden, long forgotten passion sparks to life. But can she move on with Antonio’s ghost looming over her?

Rayden hasn’t forgotten. Nor has he ever forgiven himself. When Betty comes into his tattoo parlor, he realizes who she is and even at the cost of his libido, he is determined to help her follow her dreams.

Time ticks fast and as their desire grows insatiably and the anniversary of Antonio’s death creeps closer, pleasure and pain blend into one.

Rayden doesn’t want to hurt her. But can he keep her from harming herself?

“Mr. Clay,” one of the guards said. “We finally caught her.”

Clay?

The man who came to stand in front of them, dressed in a navy-blue suit which matched his eyes, was the poster man for someone comfortable in their skin, who was used to getting his way no matter what.

“Jeffrey,” she gasped. “Jeffrey Clay, as in owner of this property.” Amalia’s mind reeled, no wonder he’d been so upset when he’d found out they were coming here to parkour.

“Caught her by surprise we did,” the guard continued speaking as if she hadn’t said anything. His grip on her arms tightened, and she winced. Clay’s brow knotted.
