Book Description:
Rachel Ryan wakes up with no
knowledge of where she is or how she got there. Thrown into a world she thought
only existed in myths, she finds more questions than answers.
Shape shifters, faeries, and
vampires hide in plain sight among humans. There’s a war quietly brewing in the
shadows. Rachel stands between mankind and those creatures that live in the
darkness.
Enhanced with power she doesn’t
understand, she’ll tip the scales, but who is the real enemy?
Excerpt:
“The
bitch has to die. She murdered my son!” The mother of the werewolf Rachel
killed in self-defense. “I will avenge my child!”
Behind
her is Alonzo’s brother. He puts his arm around his mother to comfort her.
“Don't cry Mama. I will get justice for Alonzo.” He turns towards the council
and yells, “I demand Weregild from Rachel Ryan!”
Out
of nowhere, Bastien is beside Rachel. His hand on her arm, and whispers in her
ear.
“Uh,
I want Bastien as my champion!” Rachel blurts out as Bastien starts to unbutton
his shirt.
Miguel
just bit off a lot more than he can chew. Bastien
is a fun loving kind of guy. He’s easy to laugh, and always joking, but he’s
also the son of the Alpha Prime. He was taught to fight brutally from the
cradle.
“Bastien,
son, you are familiar with the law. She’s not our kin, nor mate to our kin. We
have no ties to this woman. You cannot champion a stranger.” Claude reminds
him.
Claude
is a slick one. Every word he says is carefully measured. There was something
in there meant for Bastien to grasp. Father and son stare at one another.
Bastien snakes a hand around Rachel’s waist and leans her backwards until
she’s flush against him. His right palm is flat on her abdomen. He tilts her
head to the side with his left.
“Then
I claim her.” His teeth sink into the flesh of Rachel’s neck.
Bridget Blackwood is a hopeless
romantic and a fan of happily ever after. She grew up in East Texas where she
met and married her high school sweetheart. Together they moved to Southern
Illinois, it's been home for over a decade now. Bridget began telling stories at
an early age, she writes in self-defense because the characters in her head are
loud and bossy. A social butterfly by nature, Bridget loves to talk and laugh.
When she isn't writing she enjoys watching horror movies, playing video games,
and not cooking.
