But starting next week you will see my 3-4 reviews a week like I normally do. I am still around to reply to comments at night though. š Thanks, my peeps. On to the giveaway.

She wrapped her arms around him, holding him tight, resting her head against his chest. If she only knewā¦he was damaged, had kept every emotion locked away deep inside for so longātrembled at the thought of letting her in.
Ice cold. Her skin was so cold. He hadnāt noticed the temperature dropping, was too engrossed in her. āLetās get you inside, out of the cold.ā Taking her hand, he twined his fingers through hers, leading her down the stairs to their room.
āDo you want a drink before bed? Um, before we go to sleep I mean,ā she was breathless.
Seeing her standing there, riveted to the floor, watching him, his nostrils flared, catching her scent as he stalked towards her. This woman captivated him. Inexplicably he was drawn to her, a base need he couldnāt put a name to. Reaching out, he caressed her hair. Wantā¦needā¦desire, filled him, threatening to spill over. Tentatively, she reached up, caressed his jaw, her fingers soft against his stubble, the sensation heading straight to his groin. A simple touch of her hand was all it took, in that moment he wanted to crawl into her skin; mark her for all time.
āDamn the whisky,ā he choked out.
The room crackled with electricity, a dim silvery light filling every corner and crevice as he dipped his mouth to hers. The clock on the mantle stopped ticking, he felt her breath hitchābefore she could take her next breath, he kissed her with savage need.
Taking her into his arms, she moaned against his mouth, holding him tight, losing herself within their kiss. His muscles twitched under her caress, he growled, an ancient predator ready to devour her. Hands moving to his hair, she played with his braids, twining her fingers through them, pressing her chest into him.
āIāve never wanted any man like this.ā
He lifted her up, settling her against his hips, his desire for her evident, his erection pressing against her core. The contact was electrifying. As he licked his way from her earlobe down her neck, she moaned, deep in her throat. The feel of her, wrapping her legs tighter around his waist, he could hold her forever.

Yes! Totally can’t wait to read this! Adding it to my TBR list… Love that cover, too ; ) I always wonder how much power they have over the direction of the design of their book cover. My brother just got into designing book covers and would like to know what he should expect! Thanks for sharing with us and Thanks for the giveaway!

You usually have very little say over your cover design when you are traditionally published.
