A: “So, are you two still living in Panama City at Carmen’s house?”

C: Smiles and wraps her fingers in Gabriel’s. “Yeah.  I want to stay close to Lissy and the Greers as long as possible.  Gabriel says that we can stick around for another ten or so years before people start to notice that we don’t seem to be aging.”

G: Flips Carmen’s hand over and starts making a spiral design that starts in the center.  “Laura is about to drive Carmen crazy with wedding planning details.  Mary, too, both of those women want to see her become a Vorrian.”

C: Huffs, “I said I would marry you.  I didn’t say that I would parade around like some over indulged princess.  Can’t we just run away to Vegas or something?”

G: Shakes with quiet laughter.  “Not happening.  I have already been cornered by each of those women, and they plan on gelding me if I let you talk me into running away and eloping.”

A: “Carmen, honey.  Get over it.  They love you.  Remember, your marriage – their wedding.”

C: Rolls her eyes at me, “Not you too.”

My Review


The fantasy novels of  Ms. Flossie Benton Rogers have two strong points: they are captivating, and their characters are real and endearing. She has a beautiful turn of phrase and can deftly describe settings, places, worlds and characters. The Wytchfae series is amazing! There are so many things I loved about Demoness Dreams, the sixth book in the series,  that I don't even know where to start. Imaginative and well crafted,  it is one of the best stories I've read this year. You just can't help but fall in love with the characters, and have your own delightful 'fairytale good feeling' when you finish it. The writing style was easy to read and flowed well. I found the story engaging and it is well worth your time for a read. Also, the author's take on fae is enthralling and breathtaking. The character development was well done. The good characters had flaws and the bad characters had redeeming qualities. The love between the hero, Bane, and the heroine, Neva, grows as they learn about each other and I think that this was one of my favorite parts of the book. Bane finds himself torn between the oath he made to the Master of the Underworld and his budding feelings for the woman he is supposed to exterminate. Will he fulfill his duty? Will the demoness be annihilated? I never reveal the plot  of a story as I don’t want to spoil the pleasure for other readers, but, trust me, it’s a book worth your time and money. I suggest this book even if you have not read the previous ones. Demoness Dreams can basically stand by itself. All in all, I consider Demoness Dreams a great escapist read for both young adults and adults. I look forward to the next book in the series! My rating:

Guest Promo (LXXXV) Medieval Monday Spring

MedMon
Today I'm delighted to welcome author Ruth A Casie to the blog, all the way from Brooklyn, USA. Her new romance sounds wonderful:


                                     Knight of Rapture 


Blurb:
He crossed the centuries to find her…
For months Lord Arik has been trying to find the right combination of runes to create the precise spell to rescue his wife, Rebeka, but the druid knight will soon discover that reaching her four hundred years in the future is only the beginning of his quest. He arrives in the 21st century to find her memory of him erased, his legacy on the brink of destruction, and traces of dark magick at every turn.
A threat has followed…
Bran, the dark druid, is more determined than ever to get his revenge. His evil has spread across the centuries. Arik will lose all. Time is his weapon, and he’s made sure his plan leaves no one dear to Arik, in past or present, safe from the destruction.
But their enemy has overlooked the strongest magick of all…
Professor Rebeka Tyler is dealing with more than just a faulty memory. Ownership of Fayne Manor, her home, has been called into question. Convenient accidents begin happening putting those she cares for in the line of fire. And then there’s the unexpected arrival of a strange man dressed like he belonged in a medieval fair—a man who somehow is always around when needed, and always on her mind. She doesn’t know who to trust. But one thing is certain. Her family line and manor have survived for over eleven centuries. She won’t let them fall, not on her watch… in any century.
Excerpt:
She took another step and past the stone marker.

The air chilled and the sky turned an array of colors. Everything around her began to swirl. She realized her mistake too late. The portal, she was in the portal.

Arik. Close to him now, she reached for him but her hand passed through the form. She examined her hand turning it over then spotted the shadow of the man.

An illusion?

The shadow turned towards her. She watched as the wind washed over his face and it changed. “Bran,” she whispered in disbelief. Her head swiveled while she searched for something, anything to grab on to. The portal had one use and she had no intention of leaving.

Get out, her brain shouted.

His lips twisted into a cynical sneer. He tilted his head in jaunty satisfaction, snapped his fingers and vanished.

“No,” she yelled. “Arik,” she closed her eyes and screamed in her head trying to mind touch him while the wind tore at her.

“Beka,” he boomed.

Her eyes snapped open. She shielded them from the dust and debris and stared at Arik on the other side of the opening. He stood at the high plateau, miles away. His hands were braced on the opening’s edges, which were nothing more than solid streams of whirling wind. He struggled to keep the portal from closing.

“Come.” His voice didn’t allow for any argument.

The wind whipped at her, pushed her back. She tried again. “I can’t. The wind.Keeps.Pushing.Me. Away.” She shoved her staff in front of her and anchored it in the ground. Against the gusting wind, pulled herself towards him.

“A little more, Beka.” He gripped the edge of the portal with one hand and stretched the other out to her. She shoved her hand towards him as far as she could. The tips of their fingers brushed. In a burst of effort he Hecaught the top of her hand, a precarious hold. With a tight grasp she wrapped her fingers around his thumb.

Safe, she wasn’t far now.

She concentrated on his face. The corners of his mouth turned up as he pulled her towards safety. The wind grew stronger buffeting around them then changed its path.

Before she could brace herself for the new direction, the gust blasted them. Without a firm grip, her hand began to slip. She pushed through the building panic. His smile slipped. The expression on his face turned to determination. Again her hand slipped until he held her by her fingertips.

He held them fast—crushing them but that didn’t matter. He had to hold on to her. Every muscle strained. Inch by inch he brought her closer to him. She tried to help him the best way she could. Anchored to the edge of the portal, Arik encouraged her on. But his alternatives were limited. The closer she got to him, the stronger the gale blew. Just a little closer, that’s all she needed for Arik to grab her and get her out of the portal.

The wind exploded from another direction.

The blasting gale pushed her staff away from the opening, across the dirt, cutting an ugly scar in the ground and dragging her away with her staff.

Away from Arik.
