Blurb:
When Sage stumbles across
a man hanging by his coat in a tree, she's torn between fear and curiosity. He
introduces himself as Sir Cade, and though his English accent sends a tingle
through her, Sage finds his Renaissance clothing and archaic choice of words
odd. An accidental touch sends a jolt of inexplicable electricity through her
and after they kiss, Sage finds herself on an enchanted adventure filled with
medieval mayhem and the possibility of a new life. Will Sage go out on a limb
and believe in the magic he professes? Or will she remain rooted to her time
without him?
Excerpt:
"Shit." She removed her hand, but
the after effect still resonated within her. Showered in the sensation, yet
oddly chilled without the warmth of his touch, an involuntary shiver ran
through her. "Who the hell are you?" she whispered.
"C-Cade.Sir Cade—of Surrey." His
eyes clouded. "Damnation, woman, are ye a witch?"
Despite the seriousness of the moment, she
couldn't help but smile. "A witch?Um, definitely not. I think it's
you." She braced herself. "Watch." As soon as she laced her
fingers through his, he sucked in a breath.
Her eyelids twitched then closed, and she
fell into the depths. The pulse of pleasure, like a bubble of air in a pond,
slowly rose and popped at the surface of her mind then rippled. It
felt...right.
"Pray thee! Ye must cease this."
Cade slipped from her grasp, his eyes wide.
She gasped at the sudden disconnection.
"I didn't do...whatever that was."
He took several steps back, his eyes nearly
black with...was that fury? "Ye harbor power over my...emotions."
Oh, that wasn't fury she imagined, but
passion.
"I—" What could she say? It was
as if there was an electric current pulsing through him. One that singed the
very core of her and made her quake with need. Her heart quickened at the
thought of his fingers running over her body, searing her with his touch. She
had no doubt it could ignite into something truly magical. Kiss him, a voice
inside her urged. Surprised by the thought, she almost followed through. Who
was this strange man with electrifying hands?
"Is Surrey a planet?" she
blurted. "Are you an alien?" The shock created stupidity, the only
explanation for her ignorant remark. "I mean, where is Surrey?"
He tilted his head, a crooked smile
conflicting with his furrowed brow. "I dare not ask what an alien is. Or a
planet for that matter. But, I assure ye, Surrey is here in England."
It took a moment for his words to sink in.
"Oh, Cade." She took his hand, but he snatched it away. She eyed the
muscles straining against his shirt when he ran his hand over his face. She
wanted to rip his friggin' clothes off. "You're in New York."
"York, England?"
Shit, the hope in his eyes was painful. She
hated to snuff it out. "No. Upstate New York." His blank stare made
her continue. "Have you heard of Grand Island?" Still
nothing."In between Niagara Falls and Buffalo?"
He slumped to the forest floor.
"Hell's teeth," he whispered. "'Tis not a place I have ever
heard of."
"Well, the island is tiny, but surely
you've heard of Niagara Falls?" Her giggle cut short at the shake of his
head. "Oh shit." She sat beside him. "You're teasing me,
right?"
He raked his fingers through his hair.
"I jest not."
A thought gnawed at the edge of her mind. A
weird, outlandish thought. "Okay." She opened her mouth, clamped it
shut, then tried again. "Now let me get this straight. You're from
England."
"Aye." He propped his elbows on
his knees and cradled his face.
"And you've never heard of New
York?" Her words sounded wooden, even to her own ears.
