BLURB:
As a Highland Warrior cursed with
immortality, Malcolm Campbell fought many battles, but staying away from a
beautiful witch is proving to be the greatest of his life. But when a blizzard
traps them together in his castle and dark energy shrouds his home, her
closeness ignites buried desires and tests the vow of celibacy he made to his
wife's broken body centuries ago.
Izzy Alexander embraces being an empath and a witch—until she falls for a man
she can never have, a man who hates the very essence that is her. When Tarot
cards mysteriously appear, and Izzy experiences disturbing visions featuring
their godchild in company with a demonic visitor, and the impending deaths of
her sister and brother-in-law yet again, she secretly uses her powers to
uncover the dark threat.
Without acceptance and trust, love is impossible. Somehow, Izzy and Malcolm
must learn to do both before black magic claims another victim.
By letting go of the past, they can ensure their godchild's future and break
the inevitable cycle of death each life time. As a storm rages, desire
burns—and ancient evil lurks.
EXCERPT:
Why can’t I be
like everybody else?
Izzy
Alexander stared at the fish swimming, in their
virtual aquarium, across her computer screen. While
she sat at her desk in Malcolm Campbell’s castle, the
soothing scene didn’t calm her as it sometimes did.
No,
the poor creatures were forever stuck in purgatory, they’d
never get anywhere, never accomplish anything. Kind
of like her, and her infatuation with Malcolm.
God,
how had she fallen head over heels with a man
who was in love with someone else, and
who
couldn’t stand what she was?
Why
can’t I go through life with blinders on, not knowing
what people feel, what they think by touching them?
Why does my life have to be so strange? Well,
let’s see. Maybe because I’m a witch and an empath
who fell in lust with a thirteenth century Highland
warrior who’d been cursed with immortality by
Lailoken, a Druid High Priest, and who also happens
to be my current employer as well the owner of this
castle in which I now sit. Yup, that about summed it up
and equaled weird as hell.
“I
can’t do this anymore,” she said and peeked behind
her. She swallowed the lump in her throat as she met
Malcolm’s stare. Damn, he’s gorgeous in a rugged masculine
way, but he was never going to be hers.
He
leaned against the mantel of a huge stone fireplace
in the great hall wearing black dress pants and a
green designer sweater, a glass of whiskey in the
same
hand that had sent desire coursing through her body
two years ago at his slightest touch.
But
that’s all it had ever been, one night in Scotland,
one kiss, the promise of passion.
