Favorite Quote Friday #113

Happy Friday!  How was your week?  I've been working on something very exciting that I'll share with you soon.  I can't wait!  I also handed Rendezvous With Yesterday, The Gifted Ones Book 2, over to my editor.  Woohoo!!  The manuscript came in long, as usual, so I expect I'll have some cutting to do.  But, it's always such a good feeling to finish writing and editing the manuscript myself and move forward with the next step. :-)

A USA Today Bestseller

A Sorceress of His Own, the first book in The Gifted Ones series, has received some great reviews on Amazon this week.  Thank you, Jeanie Welge, Manda, and Debra Allen!  I'm so glad you enjoyed Dillon and Alyssa's story, and I appreciate so much your taking time to write a review!

"One of the best romance novels I've ever read.  I even actually reread it on occasion. It's well written and the plot is just as captivating as the romance."

— Jeanie Welge

"This book was wonderful! Strong, intelligent main characters, a bit of sorcery, romance, adventure, all put together so nicely it leaves you begging for more! If you're in a "book drought", this one will restore your faith in authors! She makes you feel the world instead of simply telling you about it. Kudos! I'll be looking into more of her work!"

— Manda

"I loved this book from the beginning to the end. I always loved healers so I loved Alyssa and Dillon together. It was a powerful, breath taking passionate, mesmerizing story. It captivates you from the beginning to the end. You won't want it to end. I hope there will be many more like this one. I highly recommend this book and give it 10 stars."

It's time once more for Favorite Quote Friday!  Thank you again for making Phantom Embrace a USA Today Bestseller!  If you missed the news, this is the first time Yuri and Cat's novella (previously published in the On the Hunt anthology) has been released as a solo novella.  :-)  And thank you for celebrating its release with me!  You always make book releases so much fun.  

I thought I would give you another quote from it today that features the hero and heroine.  

Yuri found a love seat on the fringes of the room and claimed it for his own, his heart thumping madly as it always did when Cat seated herself beside him. 

“Did your hunt go well?” she asked. 

He nodded. Those delightful little tingles shot up his arm where it brushed hers, and he wished for the millionth time that they could truly touch. That he could hold her in his arms and feel her slight weight against him.

Have a wonderful weekend!

It's time once more for Favorite Quote Friday!  I thought I would give you another quote from Phantom Embrace today.  It features Yuri and Cat:

The amber glow in his eyes intensified. “I love old-fashioned underwear,” he hissed. 

She bit her lip. “You don’t prefer the tiny panties and bras women today wear?” 

He shook his head. “If you knew how many times, as a boy, I tried to catch a glimpse of underwear like this beneath frothy skirts, you’d know that this is what turns me on.” 

She smiled, imaging it

Have a wonderful weekend!!

It's time once more for Favorite Quote Friday!  Phantom Embrace will release on June 28th.  That's the Immortal Guardians novella that tells Yuri and Cat's story (previously released in the On the Hunt anthology.)  So today I thought I would give you a mini excerpt that features the hero and heroine.  :-)

A belt circled his hips, equipped with several sheaths that held blades of various sizes. He unbuckled the belt and set it on a dresser behind him. “In all of the times you came to my room,” he said, his hands going to the button on his pants, “did you ever peek at me while I was in the shower?” 

She shook her head, her gaze fastening on his hands. 

“Did you want to?” 

She nodded as he unbuttoned the button and drew down the zipper. 

“Shall I turn the lights on then, or leave it dark?” 

“Lights on,” was all she could squeeze out. 

Taking two steps backward, he reached over and flipped a switch.

I'll be spending this weekend with Robert and Bethany, the hero and heroine of Rendezvous With Yesterday.  (Those two always make me laugh.)  :-)  I hope you'll have a great weekend, too!

It's time once more for Favorite Quote Friday!  Only a month to go until the release of Phantom Embrace, my Immortal Guardians novella that revolves around Yuri (a powerful immortal who spends his nights hunting psychotic vampires) and Catherine (a two-century-old ghost).  It was previously published in the On the Hunt anthology, and is making its solo debut.  :-)  So today I will share a quote from it that features the hero and heroine:

She lowered her head and wished she could rest it upon his chest, feel his heart beating beneath her ear. 

“How I wish I could hold you in my arms,” he murmured. 

The words mirrored her thoughts so closely he might as well have read her mind. “As do I.”

Have a wonderful weekend!  And stay safe if you're in the path of the storms!
