When a man gets carried away, it's the woman who's swept off her feet.

Welcome to Horny Hump Day, a regular Wednesday feature! In this blog loop, we hope to provide you with tiny little tidbits of the most sexy and sensuous moments in our books. Just 3 sentences. The books might be already published, works-in-progress, or even classic literature we think you’ll like.

This post for HHD is from my 2nd book, Deadly Enchantment, a shape-shifting wizard romance published by New Concepts Publishing.  The story revolves around a young psychic woman facing off with the dark wizard of Ravenscroft, who she is convinced has brutally slaughtered her sister in a fit of jealous rage on their wedding night.




In this segment, Dominic's deepening feelings for Serena make it more likely his evil brother will target her.  Rather than risk losing her for good, Dominic decides to send Serena home directly after the funeral of his sister.  Serena doesn't want to leave, but arguing will gain her nothing but his anger and the likelihood of a more speedy departure, so she remains silent. Though Dominic is suspicious of Serena's new found docility, until she is safely away from him he insists she sleep in his bed.  Dominic knows he is endangering Serena's life by keeping her with him, but he is unable to let her go.  He desires her, yet hates himself for not having more control.  Serena is more practical.



            Moving into bed beside her, Dominic drew her into his arms and kissed her again, just as deeply, but with less anger.  “You’re like a fever in my blood, and my only cure is to have you again, and again.”
            “I am here,” she replied softly against his lips, kissing him this time.


Torn between his desire to protect the woman he loves, and his need to be with her, Dominic takes what she so willingly offers him.

  3. Very romantic! Kisses have to be one of my favorite parts of romance novels. I think you can tell a lot about a couple from their kisses.
