Promo: DUKE OF DANGER by DARCY BURKE
Meet the Author:
About the Book:
After killing his opponent in a duel, Lionel Maitland, Marquess of Axbridge, is known as the Duke of Danger. Tortured by guilt, he shields himself with a devil-may-care attitude. However, when he kills another man in another duel, he’s beyond redemption, even though it wasn’t his fault. He refuses to smear a dead man’s name, especially when he’s left behind a blameless widow who doesn’t deserve an even bigger scandal.
Widowed and destitute, Lady Emmaline Townsend must marry the man of her parents’ choosing or beg unsympathetic relatives for support. The only way out is to ask for help from the one man she’s sworn to hate, the man who owes her anything she asks, the man who killed her husband. They strike a devil’s bargain in which passion simmers just beneath the surface. But her dead husband’s transgressions come back to haunt them and threaten their chance at love.

Excerpt:
“Good
afternoon, Lady Townsend. May I offer my deepest condolences?”
She turned
on the chair, barely curious as to who might be visiting and eager to send him
on his way. But as soon as she pivoted, it was as if a dam inside her split in
two and a cascade of emotion tumbled forth.
Bolting from
the chair, she took two long steps toward him. “You.”
“Yes, me.”
The Marquess of Axbridge didn’t flinch. Indeed, he stared into her, his blue
eyes clear and piercing.
“You’ve a
singular audacity to come here.”
The marquess
bowed deeply. “I beg your pardon.” He looked at her once more. “And your
forgiveness.”
Rage
spiraled through her, and it was glorious to feel. “You’ll never have either.”
“That is
completely understandable.” His tone was tight, measured. His cool reserve
antagonized her.
She narrowed
her eyes at him. “I’m so glad I have your approval.”
“I wouldn’t
ever ask for, nor expect that.”
“And yet you
ask for my forgiveness. It hardly seems to matter—I’ll give you nothing save my
undying hatred.”
“Which I
deserve. Nevertheless, I would apologize for what happened.”
“Apologize?
You didn’t step on my foot during a dance. Nor did you spill a glass of ratafia
on my gown. You killed my husband.”
Now he
flinched. His eye twitched, and his lips pressed together so hard, they turned
white. And yet he was still incredibly handsome. That hardly seemed fair.
He took a
step toward her. She didn’t retreat, but her body tensed. She clenched her
hands into tight fists. Her spine was so straight and stiff that she could have
flown a flag from her shoulder.
“I didn’t
come to make excuses, but please know I had good reason to demand satisfaction.
I’d hoped he would settle the matter before moving to weapons, but he refused.”
She gaped at
him. “Are you somehow trying to blame my husband for your actions?”
His jaw
tightened, and he blew out a breath. “No. I came to offer my condolences, beg
your forgiveness, apologize, and offer any assistance you may need—ever.”
He wanted to
help her? She stared at him, the
anger inside her curdling. “I would never want anything from you, nor would I
ask.”
“I certainly
understand you not wanting anything from me; however, if a need should ever
arise, I would very much like to help you.”
“I think
you’ve done quite enough.” Fury churned through every part of her, and she
wanted to lash out. Needed to.
“Actually, I can think of one thing I would like from you.” She took a step
toward him, her lip curling. “I should appreciate it if you would be miserable
for the rest of your life. I would take great joy in knowing that you will
wallow in guilt and anguish for all your days.” She glared at him, long and
hard.
“I can do
that,” he said softly, without a shred of irony. “You may be pleased to know
that I am already well on my way. And I shan’t trouble you with my presence.
I’m leaving England today.”
“Good.”
“My offer
will always stand, whether you choose to take advantage of it or not. Should
you require anything at all, please contact my man of affairs.” He held out a
card.
She didn’t
want to take anything from him. “Choke on it,” she spat.
He withdrew
his hand to his side. “Again, my deepest apologies, Lady Townsend.” He turned
and strode from the room, his broad shoulders straight, his gait sure.
Damn him.
Damn
him.

OF FLAME AND
FATE Excerpt
Copyright © 2017 Cecy Robson
The doors crash open as
a pack of weres in human form stomp in, the exception being an immense,
midnight-black wolf with a white left paw who leads them. His lips peel back,
exposing a row of pointy fangs as he growls at the vampires surrounding me. But
it’s the man storming forward with dark almond eyes and a six-inch dagger in
his hand that gives me pause.
“Hi, honey,” I say,
giving him a little wave.
Funny thing, he doesn’t
wave back. His gaze swoops over my naked body. “Hold her,” he snarls, ramming
the knife into my thigh.
Reality shoves aside the
shock of having the man I love stab me in the leg. Like a heated blade through
butter, he slices through the skin and muscle, creating a diagonal line and
spraying blood across the glass shower walls. I expect pain, scorching
white-hot pain, and to lose my blood supply in large volumes. But like the
creepy crawly beneath my skin, I just feel that wretched pulling and grabbing.
My bleeding trickles to
a stop just as Gemini’s hand plunges deep into the incision. The image is so
graphic and brutal my stomach lurches. I’m seconds from passing out. The vamps
on either side of me are the only thing keeping me vertical. But when my focus
latches onto the hilt of the dagger, and I realize it’s a femur—a freaking
femur!— my body immediately slumps.
Of course, that’s not
the worst part.
The tangle of bodies,
limbs, and faces, carved around the hilt twitch, as if seizing, breaking free
of what’s holding them to slither. Oh, and it gets better. The mouths open,
singing one messed up version of O Fortuna.
“Jesus Christ,” I gasp,
my body trembling violently as their slowly amplifying voices echo across the
room.
Agnes grips my jaw,
yanking my face toward her. “Taran, get it together before you set this whole
place on fire.”
I wrench my head free.
“Don’t you think I’m trying?!”
I bite back a curse, and
a few more, when something scampers toward my right butt cheek.
It doesn’t get far.
Gemini thrusts his hand deep, wrenching a large, screeching lump from my
leg, exciting the minute faces continuing to sing and slide along the hilt.
Their voices crescendo and their bodies writhe with glee. I don’t get a good
look at the demon impaled by the dagger, and I don’t want to. I only see enough
to realize I was right about the spindly legs and pinchers.
Gemini carries the
shrieking demon to the sink, ignoring the way the long cluster of centipede
legs kick out and clutch blindly at the air. I wish I could ignore it. But
those things you can’t unsee? I’ve seen plenty in my twisted, messed up life
and this is one more to add to my list.
Gemini holds out his
free hand. Without asking, a vamp drops an opened bottle of vodka into his
palm. Gemini pours the vodka over the demon, stunning it and causing the legs
to fall open like petals—nasty petals covered with blood, pointy grippy ends,
and little bits of me.
With a turn of his
wrist, he drops the demon into the sink. It falls with a sick plop.
Agnes’s weight abruptly
pulls off me when she stands and hurries to the sink. She flicks a lighter
another vamp tosses her and drops it on top of the demon. “Ad infernum,”
she tells it, sending it back to hell.
The vamps step away from
me as the flames spray up to lick the ceiling. The exception is Edith who
remains on her knees, clutching my leg between her breasts and sealing my wound
with several fast and enthusiastic strokes of her tongue.
“Get away from her,”
Gemini demands. His voice is more beast than human, setting off an orchestra of
snarls from the rest of the pack.
Like a very hungry dog
with a bone, Edith doesn’t want to let go. Gemini doesn’t give her a choice.
From one breath to the next, he rips me from her, wrapping me in a blanket
someone hands him and carrying me away.

Jennings College gives him a sense of purpose, while keeping him connected to
the game he loves.
There couldn’t be two people more different, yet the minute they meet,
friends and family have no doubt they belong together. Now if Mia and Adam can
only get out of their own way and embrace a little home town magic, they can
find the happy ever after they both crave…

Night’s Caress Excerpt
Copyright © 2017 Mary Hughes
I
was intensely aware I was alone in a bedroom with Seb Rikare.
My
whole body clenched.
His
eyes changed. Heated. Darkened.
I
swallowed hard. My heart started to beat faster. What would it be like to
caress the silky-looking skin of his face? Nibble that honed jaw? Touch my
mouth to those perfect, masculine lips? All I had to do was take a few short
steps to find out.
I
took one without even knowing it.
His
nostrils flared and he drew in an excited breath.
He
wants me, too. At the thought, my belly thrilled
and my heart thumped hard. He’d touch me in return. Hold me secure in his
strong arms. Cup my face in his big hands, press his lips to mine,
communicating his need in a passionate kiss.
I
took another step toward him.
He
took a single, unconscious step toward me.
Oh,
yeah. In that moment, I wanted to play with fire.
Sure,
Derek had me under his spell within weeks. Seb, as strong and handsome as he
was, could no doubt do it in days.
But
just once wouldn’t hurt, right? I wanted to, so badly.
Couldn’t
I touch him once, to see if his skin was silk or cream? Nibble his jaw, to test
how honed it was? Taste his mouth, to satisfy the curiosity burning in my body?
Just
a taste.
Somehow,
while I argued with myself, my curious feet had brought me to stand before him.
He gazed down at me. At nearly six feet myself, I was usually the one looking
down. Even with me in heels, he was over half a foot taller. The novel
experience sent another thrill through me.
I
made a small noise, like a whimper.
His
black eyes lit with fire, a hunger so primal I could see it burning in his
gaze. His hands rose. Slowly, so I could have stopped him, he cupped my face in
both his hands. My whole face. Damn, the man had big hands. He bent closer, his
intent clear.
He
was going to kiss me.
