Blurb:
A man who only believes in
fact.
Even after everything the Clan
has endured, Angus has always held onto his scientific leanings. He isn’t a
believer of instant attraction, so, he is surprised by the force of his
attraction to Irishwoman Maggie O’Conner. He doesn’t trust her, but she soon become
an obsession he can’t seem to shake.
A woman who defies every logic.
Single mother Maggie comes from
a long line of magickal women, but she walked away from that part of her life.
When Angus bursts into her life, she tries to ignore the handsome Scot, but
soon finds that she needs his protection. She knows he’s not normal, but she
never expected him to be the one man who could capture her heart.
A need they could not deny.
As they work together, their
need for each other threatens to consume them both. But just as they close in
on the next jewel, a new enemy emerges and puts everything they hold dear into
jeopardy.
Excerpt
But he was waiting for her to
do something so she did the one thing she could think of. She rose to her
tiptoes and brushed her mouth over his cheek. When she pulled back, he had a
stunned look on his face. She started to feel weird standing there.
“Uh, okay. Goodnight.”
“Is that what that was? A
goodnight kiss?” he asked. There was something else in his voice. The affable
tone had dissolved and there was an edge to it that caused her to curl her
toes.
“It was to thank you for the
tea.”
“And dragging you across the
world and putting you and your son in danger?”
“You know, men can never be
happy. I was nice enough to let that go and thank you but no, you have to
complain that I kissed you back.”
“So it wasn’t a goodnight
kiss?”
She rolled her eyes. “No.”
“Good.”
Then, he grabbed her right hand
and yanked her forward. Before she knew what was happening, his mouth was
pressing against hers. A burst of heat swirled in her belly as she tried to
think of something, anything. Before she could, he was stepping back. Her head
was still whirling, and she was gasping for breath. He was standing there as if
he hadn’t done anything.
“What the bloody hell was
that?”
He smiled. “A goodnight kiss.”
Then, he turned and ambled down
the hall as if he hadn’t just turned her world upside down.
