Michelle McLean is a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl who is addicted to chocolate and Goldfish crackers and spent most of her formative years with her nose in a book. She has a B.S. in History, a M.A. in English, loves history and romance and enjoys spending her time combining the two in her novels.
When Michelle's not editing, reading or chasing her kids around, she can usually be found in a quiet corner working on her next book. She resides in PA with her husband and two children, an insanely hyper dog, and three very spoiled cats.
“Hmm, and in the meantime,
ye’ve been sleeping in my bed.”
He’d backed her up against
one of the four posters of the bed and she bumped against it with a little
squeak. Instead of pushing him away, though, she raised her impertinent little
nose in the air.
“Yes. But now that you are
home I shall make other arrangements. I’m certain a pallet on the floor
somewhere will suffice.”
“Och, no. We canna have the
lady of the castle sleeping on a lowly pallet. There is more than enough room
for us both in my bed.”
She smiled up at him. Her
sweet smile momentarily caught him off guard. Her gaze dropped to his lips and
lingered before slowly traveling back to meet his own and the heat in those
eyes hit him like a fist to the chest.
“Oh, I have no intention of
sleeping on a pallet, my lord.”
She rose up on tip toe and
trailed one finger along his jaw line.
“Nay?”
Sorcha shook her head and
bit her lip and most of the blood in his body rushed south. She looked up at
him through a thick fringe of lashes, her sparkling blue eyes staring deep into
his. A quick, gasping breath had her breasts straining against the laces of her
dress. She placed her hands on his chest…and pushed him as hard as she could,
her foot lashing out to connect sharply with his leg. He stumbled backward and
she escaped, storming toward the door.
“The pallet is for you!” she
called over her shoulder. “I’ll send up some water. I have no desire to share a
bedchamber with a man who reeks of horse and sweat.”
Malcolm hopped back until he
collided with the bed and sat down heavily. The door to the outer chamber
slammed and he started laughing. Finally, he lay back and flung his arm over
his face.
“What am I going to do wi’
that woman?” he said.
