If you enjoy history and reading time travel or paranormal romance, today's guest in My Writing Corner has a real treat for you. Author Mary Morgan has just released her latest tale featuring a tortured Celtic warrior. Mary is an award-winning author who has traveled to Scotland, England and Ireland, where she says she left a part of her soul. She vows to return at some point but for now she lives in Northern California with her own "knight in shining armor."
Mary says her passion for books started at an early age along with an overactive imagination. She spent far too much of her time daydreaming and was told quite often to remove her head from the clouds. It wasn't until the closure of Borders Books, where Mary worked, that she found her true calling--writing romance. Now, the worlds she created in her mind are coming to life within her stories. Her latest book is Oath of A Warrior. Here's a blurb:
"You met them in the Order of the Dragon Knights.
Now, journey to the realm of the Fae and witness their legends!"
Fenian Warrior, Rory
MacGregor’s love conquests are legendary, but he has never spoken of the one
mortal female who captured his heart. After his dark secret is finally
revealed, he is ordered to return and seal the wounds left open by her death.
Yet, he finds the timeline altered and swears an oath to rewrite fate, even if
it brings about his own death.
Erina MacIntyre is known
for her healing herbs and love charms. Determined to aid others, she refuses to
listen to the whispers that call her a witch. When a Highlander steps forth
into her path, he ignites a thread of strange familiarity and sparks a flame of
desire she is unable to control.
Can the destiny of two
lovers find love once more among the ashes of death and betrayal? Or will
history repeat itself, leaving a scorching path of destruction for both mortals
and Fae alike?
I like the sound of that story. Let's get an excerpt:
“Erina, mo ghrá,” he groaned, taking her mouth
with savage intensity. She tasted of honey and spices, filling him completely
and easing the torment that continually plagued him.
Breaking free, he
placed his hands on either side of the door. Giving her all of him required
something more from Erina. Without the assurance of accepting him for what he
was, Rory would be a lost man.
“Are ye certain ye want
to ken all of me? I want ye as sure as the sun rises and sets over the land
each day, but ken this, Erina—there is more to me than a simple bedding. There
are things about me that might frighten ye. What I’m about to share with ye may
cause ye to question my existence, or worse, my sanity.”
Her laugh was seductive
and soothing as she wrapped her arms around his neck. “From the moment ye
stepped through those trees that first day, I realized ye were not like any man
I had encountered. It was as if the trees parted and ye came forth from inside
them.” She brushed her fingers along his brow. “For one, ye have the most
mesmerizing eyes and they shift
colors.”
“And the second?”
Her face turned a rosy
glow, yet, she held his gaze. “I thought your body chiseled from the old Gods,
especially with all the markings on your back and arms.”
His gaze swept over
hers. “I am nae God, Erina, though some would call me a demon.”
She traced a finger down along his
arm and shook her head. “Ye are not a monster, but I am nae fool. Ye are not
like other men, Rory. I have seen the markings on your body elsewhere.” Her
finger curved around his shoulder and he trembled. “They are similar to the
ones on the standing stones carved by the ancients.”
Rory fought the tide of emotions
sweeping through him. She had come to the conclusion all on her own. “And ye
would not flee if I told ye I was one of those ancients? One where the bards
wove tales of giants who lived thousands of years ago among your own people?
Others would call the story incredulous and filled with heathen words.” He held
his breath, fearing her reply.
The smile she gave him speared
straight to his soul. “Nae. I would not flee.”
