Happy Sunday! These last two weeks have been crazy...CRAZY! I don't seem to have stopped. It's been one thing after another. So yup, this means I haven't done much writing. So I'm sharing a six from my recent release that's available to purchase in most eRetailers. Info/buy links in the left-side bar.
When A Mullo Loves A Woman By JoAnne Kenrick on GOODREADS 4.25 avg
(Mullo, by the way, is a gypsy legend of the undead/vampire - read all about it here and here)
"Adam released my shirt and leaned against the doorframe with a wicked smile and a hint of naughtiness in his eyes. I backed up, but he stalked me step for step, with the same determination in his eyes that I saw the first time he followed me. He wanted something.
“You.”
Run, Pearl, run.
If you kiss him now, you’ll be hurt when he leaves.
"A deceptively complex story about the power of true love, featuring a scandalously wonderful leading man who will stop at nothing to save his soul mate. Throw in a few devious villains and a secret family legacy, and you have a winning and surprising paranormal romance." Bridget, The Romance Reviews, on When A Mullo Loves A Woman.
Happy Loved-Up Day for tomorrow!

I love Adam's naughtiness. Wonder if it will be worth the hurt after.
ReplyDeleteYup, he's a naughty one! The naughty ones are always worth the hurt ;) don't you think? hehe Thanks Jessica xxx Hope you enjoy your Sunday morning!
ReplyDelete::Sigh:: I love naughty heroes.
ReplyDeleteWonderful, sizzling tension in this scene between Adam and Pearl. Great how you show her dilemma. Just one question. What's a Mullo?
ReplyDeleteTension and intrigue. Great job!
ReplyDeleteGreat question...Mullo is a gypsy legend of the undead/vampire. In my book, they feed on souls/energy rather than blood :) Thanks for asking xx
ReplyDeleteIf you're interested in reading more about Mullo, I wrote an article about them: http://www.joannekenrick.com/2010/09/moment-writer-dreams-of-drum-roll.html
and I have video'd an author reading, too, if you want a little more from my sexy mullos!

ReplyDeleteOMG! His name is "Adam"? I'm SO in LOVE!
ReplyDeleteNice excerpt!
ReplyDeleteWow! The page sizzles!!
ReplyDeleteoh, kiss him! kiss him!
ReplyDeleteWho can resist a wicked smile?
ReplyDeleteI wanted to yell at her "But it's a romance book! He's not going to leave!"
ReplyDeleteOf course if it's a series he wouldn't leave without being replaced by someone even better.
I really liked this bunch.
Tis better to have loved and lost...and it makes for more exciting writing and reading too! Go Pearl, Go!
ReplyDeleteSexy six!
ReplyDeleteGreat character with some complexities even in a snippet. Glad to know what a mullo is...intriguing!
ReplyDeleteI love the tension in this scene -- and I love a good first-person narrative!
ReplyDeleteCheeky boy. Yummy. I wonder what she means with the last line: "you'll be hurt when he leaves"? What a place to stop!
ReplyDeleteKiss him, then run. Yep, grab the kiss first.
ReplyDeleteI think he might be worth the hurt : )
ReplyDeleteHero's are always worth the hurt :) But try telling that to Pearl, she's rather stubborn!
ReplyDeleteLOL Graylin.... kiss and run!
