Welcome to this week's dirty dozen which are taken from my Paranormal Romance Lure of the Blood - scheduled release December - through Evernight Publishing
Heroine Marnie is walking home late at night, a decision which throws her right into her own Twilight Zone...
The
whoosh of air and the low male growl were the only warning–– before she even
managed to draw much needed air into her lungs, her attacker went flying
through the air. Another blur of air and the sickening sounds of tearing flesh,
crunching bones and the fluid-filled gurgle of her attacker filled the alley.
When she finally managed to get her breathing under control, the stillness was
deafening and the cool hand under her chin made her gasp.
Moss
green eyes in a face as pale as the moon were boring into her, the dark brows a
stark contrast to the luminous skin under the slightly too long unruly mob of
jet black hair. The man towered over her and she swallowed nervously, taking in
the width of those enormous shoulders and the ribbed muscles she could feel
pressing against her bare skin, where his body was holding her up against the
wall.
Her
skin warmed where his eyes roamed briefly over her exposed torso, before he
stepped back and pulled her coat firmly around her.
“Steady,
chere. I’ve got you. He’s not going to bother you again. Can you walk?”
The
deep, slightly accented voice sent all her nerve endings a-tingle and awareness
slammed into her with the full force of a sledgehammer.
“Wh…who
are you?”
Things are not what they seem, I can tell you that much ;-)
