At First Snowfall



Weekenders Romance Watch



At First Snowfall
Author: Cecilia Corona
Genre: Mainstream Romance
Buy: Amazon



Blurb:
May all your dreams come true, takes on a whole new meaning when Xiomara finds out she's an Oracle with Fae witch powers, and her boyfriend is a werewolf from another realm. When her half- brother shows up on her doorstep with his prophecy, the true nightmare begins. She must stand beside him in the battle of Galant or the evil Queen will destroy the kingdom. Some faerytales are all too real, but if she can unleash her powers and learn to control them before the first snowfall, she just might find her happily ever after.


Enchanting Excerpt:
"NOOOO!" Mara screamed from her safe place within the wall Adelaide created around them. Mauricio fell, but he kept his gaze on Xiomara. She reached out for him and before Adelaide could hold her back, the most beautiful light cast through her fingers tips. Mauricio shielded his eyes. Prince Jayce rushed over to him and used his powers to cast a wall around them. All went silent and, for a moment, Mauricio thought he was lost unto the underworld of the Fae. Lost forever, but then he felt Prince Jayce's hand grabbing at him, lifting him up from the ground. In all the chaos, he didn't realize he'd transformed back to his human form. He now stood, buck naked in front of everyone, bleeding from the wound he received. He knew he would heal soon. The cut wasn't too deep and didn't hit anything vital. He glanced at Xiomara and the look on her face felt like another stab to his side. Xiomara had never seen him in his wolf form. A dream wasn't reality. She'd never seen anything like this. He could see the horror of what happened in her eyes, but also her curiosity. So many emotions flitted across her face.

Losing Who



Weekenders Romance Watch

Book 3 in the Loving Who series

Author: Cynthianna
Genre: Mainstream Romance
Buy: Mojocastle Press




Blurb:
Cici Connors is losing her mind—or is she? Alien time traveler John Smith vows to return her memories, but will his sci-fi con only attract an invasion of Earth by artificially intelligent life forms?

 

Enchanting Excerpt:
(A telepathic conversation between John and Cici, wherein he tries to explain why he had to blank her memories.)


The time lines…They got a bit muddy. We had to undo them and start afresh in order to keep the universe from exploding. You’re sensitive to how the time lines flow, Cici, but you’re not one of us who can step totally out of time and look at them objectively. So, you’ve got to trust me on this point—you know me from before, and I’ve come back for you against the wishes of my own kind.

Some of what he was relating to her mind made sense. Cici had felt these past few days as if she’d been yanked out of time and thrust back into it at another spot against her will. She sensed that the clock had been turned back and that she was reliving the same days again, only this time with a slightly different cast of characters in a completely different situation. You’re risking your own safety to be with me? she wondered.

I am. I’m risking your safety, too. That’s why I wanted to confess as soon as you seemed able to deal with this knowledge. If you want me out of your time line, I’ll go, Cici. But before I go, I wanted you to know that it wasn’t my idea to leave you behind in the first place.

You want to be with me? Cici felt tears burning beneath her eyelids, but she couldn’t find either her eyes or her tissue to wipe them away.
My kind doesn’t know what romance or love means really, but I think I’ve learned more about it since we met. It’s why I came back for you.

Damn… You’ve wrecked my cynicism. She felt the warmth of a sun upon her cheek like a kiss of an angel. Anything is possible, isn’t it, John Smith?

She heard a soft chuckle then, It is when you love someone, Cici Connors. Love makes all things possible.

Leaving Who


Tantalizing Thursday

Excerpt
 
 
Sequel to Loving Who

 
                    Leaving Who
Author: Cynthianna
Genre: Mainstream/Fantasy Romance
Buy: Mojocastle

Excerpt:

     “You want…more than…me?”
     His wide eyes and quivering lip betrayed how stunned John Smith was by my revelation, but somehow he still sounded indignant. The depth of his self-love knew no bounds. I could see the first Doctor booming such an arrogant statement to his companions who, of course, would reply apologetically, “Right you are. You know what’s best, Doctor.”

Duty: a novel of Rhynan


Tantalizing Thursday

Excerpt

 

              Duty: a novel of Rhynan
Duty
Author: Rachel Rossano
Genre: Mainstream/Historical/Fantasy
Buy: Amazon

Excerpt:

"The red one is mine," he said. 

I didn’t raise my head although instinct urged me to. Father had called me Red. He said I was born screaming, skin deep red like the beets in the garden and hair fiery like the setting sun. The man who spoke was not my father. 

I glanced at him from beneath my cloak’s hood. Arrogant in his size and superior mass, his eyes picked me out of the writhing mass of captives. Early morning sunlight glinted off plain armor and an unadorned helm, yet the unwashed barbarians treated him with the respect due a commander.

The Sword and the Pen




The Sword and the Pen
Elysa Hendricks

It was time. After penning ten popular sword-and-sorcery novels, Brandon Alexander Davis was ready to stop hiding in his fictional world, to start living a real life. Just one problem: as he plotted the noble death of Serilda D'Lar, his fictional creation, complete with mile-long sword, skimpy leather outfit and badass attitude, appeared in his study.


This warrior woman whom he knew so well, so strong yet vulnerable, was both fantasy and reality. She was an invitation to rediscover all he once knew--that life is an incredible, magical journey and, for love, any man can be a hero.
