The Angel
After three years caring for her dying mother, Layla Callaway learns she was adopted under unusual circumstances. Following a cryptic message to seek her birth family in Oregon, Layla uproots her lonely life, quickly finding she descends from witches and wizards. Magic is in her blood, and a handsome family friend is eager to prove it. Through a ring imprinted with her birth parents’ memories, Layla’s enigmatic past comes to light, presenting possibilities and trials more chimerical than her wildest dreams.
The Guardian
Quin’s natural charisma yields plenty of witches, but he longs for the lost witch – the mysterious Layla. He's dreamed about her his entire life, envisioning the day he would lay eyes on her face and aura. When that day arrives, not only is he breathless, he’s confronted with the challenge of a lifetime – an innate need to keep her safe and forever by his side.
The Hunter
Employing fiendish manipulation and manpower, Agro uses the arcane force of others to elevate his supremacy and wealth. Nothing pleases him more than latching on to a mystical vein, and never has there been a more enticing source. The divine witch will be his.
EXCERPT 9:
The door opened, and Rhosewen slipped inside, flashing a smile as she
clicked the latch into place. Aedan smirked at her stubbornness. Then his
breath caught in his chest as she stepped into the moonlight.
She wore a wispy, white nightgown with thin straps and a deep
neckline, displaying her slender collarbones and firm cleavage.
Aedan swallowed a lump then slid his gaze down her curvy waist, his
lips parting with a reverent sigh. The hem of her gown wafted around her upper
thighs, giving him his first full view of her legs, which were even better than
he’d imagined, and he’d imagined them perfect.
She walked toward him, her ivory skin glittering with every fluid
step. “Were you sleeping?” she whispered, climbing into bed.
Aedan rolled onto his side and propped his head on his hand, scanning
her from head to toe. “Nuh-uh.”
She wiggled closer. “I was missing you.”
“What a coincidence,” he whispered, drifting his thumb over her cheek.
“I was missing you.”
He wanted to see the rest of her body, the parts hidden beneath the
thin nightgown. They called his name, testing his self-control. “You have a
fantastic body, Rose. If you’re here to tempt me, mission accomplished.”
His fingertips slid into the V of her gown then flitted to her side,
trailing over her hip to her thigh. Goosebumps followed, and she giggled,
cuddling closer to his warm body.
“How tempted are you?” she asked.
He returned his fingers to her cheek, tilting her head back to find
her eyes. “Very, but I don’t want to push my luck.”
“You’re sweet,” she whispered, searching his gaze, “and I love that
about you, but right now, there’s something else I want.”
“I’ll give you the world, Rose.”
“I don’t want the world. I want you to stop being so polite to my
parents and start making love to me.”
“Here?” he laughed.
“Now,” she soberly confirmed,
wrapping a hand around the back of his neck.
