True Love Takes Courage and Sacrifice.
Dark
warriors of might...
Mel is a vampire warrior sworn to hunt and
kill demons in the dark streets of Vancouver. But he's burdened with a new
assignment: find the meaning behind the Vampire Prophecy. Having no faith in
the gods and their empty words, he believes there's no truth to the ancient
legend until he meets Breeana, a human woman who bears the mark of the prophecy
and resembles the mysterious woman haunting his dreams. When a vengeful demon
spies Breeana in his arms, she is marked for death. He must take her from the
world she knows until he can eliminate the threat. But the real danger is the
role Breeana must play in fulfilling the prophecy and the intense feelings she
brings out in him. Mel is forced to choose between his obligations to his kind,
the world, and the woman he loves. Does he have the courage to let the one
woman who could heal his wounded heart and soul go, or will he bind her to him
for all eternity?
Small
warriors of light...
Veterinarian, Dr. Breeana Spencer yearns
for love and companionship, but the disappointment of failed relationships has
left her bitter. She now finds solace in romance novels. But when she meets a
mysterious stranger, she's drawn to him by a connection so forceful it shatters
all reason, leaving her incapable of resisting him. As Breeana’s drawn deeper
into his danger-filled world, she learns she's part of an ancient vampire
legend. Breeana fears her future is no longer hers and will not include Mel. As
their enemies close in, desperate to destroy them both, she must fight to
convince Mel her place is at his side. A life-altering choice is before her—one
that will take all her courage and love to make.
Excerpt from Love’s Prophecy, book #1
in the Prophecy Series
Breeana stared at Mel, appalled by his
words. The gardens—the beauty of the evening—forgotten.
He cleared his throat. “The first memory I
had as a child was of my father dragging me from the slave dungeon and locking
me in the killing cage.”
She jerked back. His arm slid from around
her shoulders. “The what?”
His eyelids lowered as he looked at the
grass. “It was an iron box suspended from the top of the castle by a chain. The
front had narrow slits, just wide enough to allow the morning sun to shine in.
He used the cage to punish his slaves or his soldiers, hell, sometimes just for
sport.”
“Oh my God!”
Mel's gaze drifted out over the yard. The
look on his face told her he no longer saw the gardens or smelled the perfume
scented air. His mind must have drifted back hundreds of years, reliving what
sounded like a horrific nightmare.
“When I realized what he was about to do, I
panicked. I fought back but I was young, maybe four or five. My arm snapped as
he shoved me inside, but I didn't feel the pain, it paled in comparison to the
terror I felt when I heard the lock click.”
His eyes filled with terror and bounced
around like the eyes of a trapped, frightened animal. “I knew what was coming.
I'd heard the screams of others who had burned alive.” He swallowed. A trickle
of sweat coursed down his temple. “I clawed at the bars, pleaded with my
father, but he just laughed.”
His words chilled her to the bone. Nausea
churned her stomach.
“I tried to sift—disappear—but vampires
can't sift through metal or rock, and the spaces between the bars were too
narrow. I was trapped. I…I continued begging my father to release me. Then as
the first rays touch my skin, just when the pain began, he ordered his soldiers
to pull the cage back in.”
Numbness spread through her. She opened her
mouth, but shut it. What did you say to someone who had lived through such a
traumatic experience?
“That was the first, but not the last time
he locked me inside,” he said in a flat tone. “Each time he pulled me back in.
I don't know why he didn't end it there.”

existence is shattered once more. Drawn into Kal’s deadly world of vampires and
demons, she must now put aside her hurt and anger and learn to trust him. Can

away the one man who owns her heart and soul?
Her
secret will change his life.
Powerful, and lethal, Kal is a vampire

has captured his heart. As fate tosses them together once again, Kal must fight
to win Katherine’s trust and forgiveness before evil separates them forever.
But is he ready to become the man she needs him to be? Or will he lose the one
woman he can’t live without?
Excerpt from Prophecy’s Child, book
#2 in the Prophecy Series
Katherine busied herself by unzipping her
suitcase and stacking her clothes on the bed. She sensed Kal behind her, but
didn’t acknowledge him.
“Katherine?” Kal cleared his throat. “I know
it’s been a huge inconvenience quitting your job and moving in here, but I hope
we can at least be civil to one another while you’re here.”
Her boss’s angry face flashed through her mind.
When Katherine quit her job—with no notice—Michelle had been livid.
She walked over to the dresser, yanked open
the top drawer, and dumped her load of clothes inside. “I’ll try, but I’m not
promising anything,” she said through gritted teeth.
He cursed under his breath.
She wheeled around. “What the hell more do
you want from me?”
“You don’t want to know.”
She slammed the drawer shut. “Try me.”
“You sure?”
“May as well get it all out on the table.”
He closed the door; the lock clicked into
place.
Fear of being alone with him took the edge
off her fury.
Heat from his gaze burned through her
clothing. “I want you naked on my bed. I want to see you smile, hear you
laugh.” He pushed away from the door and stalked toward her from across the
room. Lifting a hand, he caressed her cheek with the pad of his thumb. “I want
you to love me again. But most of all, I want your forgiveness.”
His fingers traced the contours of her jaw,
her neck. “I know you don’t want to hear it, but I love you—I always have.”
Her mind screamed run, but her feet remained
rooted to the floor. Each word chipped away at her defenses.
Leaning closer, his lips gently brushed
hers. “All I’ve ever wanted was your happiness.”
His tongue outlined the seam of her mouth.
Desire scorched her willpower. Without thinking, she opened for him, and his
tongue swept inside.
A deep groan tore from his throat as his
arms tightened around her.

True Love takes Strength and Compromise
He
kidnapped her heart
For Natalie Tortelli, everything comes down
to a hard-won fight. She’s survived an insane mother and a cold, indifferent
foster care system. To stand apart from everyone and everything is to trust
only in herself—and that suits her fine. But all that changes one night when
she happens upon a handsome stranger, murdering another. To make matters worse,
the killer takes her captive and claims he’s part of a vampire race that
protects humans from demons. Caught in a dangerous world she doesn’t
understand, Natalie has no choice but to trust in him. But her pride won’t
allow her to fall for the sexy kidnapper.
She
stole his soul
Soren from the Fourth Clan of vampires
loves his life. With an endless supply of demons to fight, and willing women to
share his bed, why wouldn’t he? Love is an emotion he cares nothing about. But
the foundations of his philosophies are shaken to the core after he has to
detain Natalie. She’s unlike any woman—vampire or human—he’s ever come across.
When it comes time to let her go, he finds he doesn’t have the heart to release
his wild and sexy captive.
The
power of love binds them
Together, Soren and Natalie attempt to
unravel the secrets that haunt her past—which might tie both of them to the
vampire prophecy. Though their passionate relationship is more than either had
expected, both hesitate to fully entrust themselves to one another. But if they
don’t, death may be the only thing that unites them.
Excerpt from Prophecy’s Power, book
#3 in the Prophecy Series
With both hands covering Soren’s pecs,
Natalie pushed harder. “Get off me,” she snarled through gritted teeth.
“What?” He placed his hands on the mattress
and reared up. The muscles in his arms shook. Sweat dampened his hairline and
glistened on his cheeks. “I don’t think I heard you correctly, ‘cause I swore
you told me to get off you.”
She leveled a hard glare at him. “You heard
me. Now get off.” For emphasis, she heaved under him.
He scowled. “Why the sudden change of heart?
And don’t bother saying you weren’t into it. Believe me, sweetheart, I know
you’re as hot for me as I am for you.”
“I’m not!” Jesus, she sounded like a
petulant child, which sparked her anger. It irritated her he could read her so
well. Whatever. She’d put an end to any ideas he had. “I knew you couldn’t be
trusted.”
“What the fuck does that mean?”
“You promised you wouldn’t rape me, but here
you are, forcing yourself on me.” Oh, that was low. Guilt turned her gut sour.
His expression darkened. All traces of
bewilderment evaporated. Fury took its place. He jumped up as if he couldn’t get
away from her fast enough—and she didn’t blame him.
He paced the room, running both hands
through his short hair. On his third trip around, he stopped and a low growl
grew in volume. Slowly, he glanced sideways at her. His fierce appearance said
he wanted nothing more than to strangle her.
She gulped and slammed her knees together
before scurrying into to a sitting position.
“Rape?” he asked in a deceptively calm
voice. “That’s the label you’re trying to slap on what was happening between
us?”
Fear held sway, keeping her from nodding.
“So, it wasn’t my name you called out? It
wasn’t me you begged to touch you?” Turning so he faced her full on, he crossed
his arms. Powerful muscles along his shoulders bunched.
Oh, dear, God! Did she actually say the
words from her dream out loud?
Her cheeks flamed, and she glanced away, not
wanting to see the truth in his accusing glare.
Dammit. She couldn’t win with this guy. But
the last thing he needed was a bigger head. In a situation like this, best
course of action was to deny, deny, deny.
She copied his folded arms motion—though his
was an intimidating gesture. Hers was more of a
hope-he-doesn’t-see-my-heart-pounding gesture.
Natalie raised her chin in defiance. “No for
both questions. I woke to you shoving your tongue down my throat.”
Oh shit, wrong answer. Redness crept over
his face and his lips rippled like a snarling dog’s.
She had the smarts to shrink back.
The next second, he was alongside the bed.
His fingers bit into the flesh of Natalie’s arms as he hauled her off the
mattress. She hit the unyielding wall of his chest with a teeth-jarring thump.
Barely controlled murderous rage simmered in
his eyes. “I guarantee you if I ripped off your pants, I’d find you wet and
ready for me.”
Although crude, his words sent more moisture
to her sex. Lust destroyed her pride and unease. If he dared take off her
jeans—if he touched her core—she’d cum for sure, then all her protests and lies
would be proven false.
He pulled her closer. “Listen to me
carefully, little lady. We will have sex. And I promise you this, when we do,
you’ll beg me for it. There’ll be no rape involved, got it?”
Soren dropped her back on the bed then
stormed out of the room, slamming the door.
Natalie sat in the dark room, gaping at the
closed door.

True Love Takes
Persistence and Faith
She’ll need
persistence to break through to his heart
Author Eleanor Donavon’s life is
finally going her way. She kicked her mentally abusive ex-husband to the curb,
and her writing career is taking off. But her contented world changes when a
stranger, who’s the spitting image of one of her fictional vampire warriors,
appears in her home on the pretense of whisking her away on a vacation.
Believing him to be a cover model sent by her agent, Eleanor takes him up on
his offer in hopes of getting to know him better. When she learns the truth
about who he is, and the reason behind her imprisonment, her existence is
rocked to the core. Now caught in the brutal politics surrounding the vampires,
her only hope of surviving is to trust Sin. To complicate matters, she’s
spellbound by the fierce warrior and falling for him hard. With her heart at
stake, she must somehow break through his icy defenses to the man inside or
forever lose him to his haunted past.
Her
love gives him the faith to live again
Sin lives by his own code: don’t care
for anyone and you won’t let them down. His past actions taught him that
valuable lesson. When he receives the mission to abduct Eleanor, a beautiful
author writing about the Vampire Prophecy, his heart jolts awake. For the first
time in years he yearns to go against his principles and make her his forever,
but fear won’t allow it. When she becomes a target of the Sacred Order, Sin
risks his career to save her, but the real danger lurks when he realizes he
can’t stop his head-on collision with love.
Excerpt from Prophecy’s Language, book
#4 in the Prophecy Series
Determined to break through Sin’s defenses,
Eleanor stroked her fingers over the soft skin above the collar of his shirt.
“You heard me.”
He stumbled backward, not stopping until he
was across the room. As he gripped the counter, his knuckles glowed white. “Are
crazy?”
“No. I want this, Sin. I want you.” She took
a step then stopped when he looked ready to bolt.
“Forget it, Princess. Ain’t happening.”
“But—”
“But nothing.” He stormed over to the entrance.
“I’m taking you to Breeana’s, now.”
She chased him into the living room. “I know
you want me, so why are being so damn stubborn?”
He whirled around. The blatant confusion and
fear in his eyes almost stopped her from pressing the issue—almost, but not
quite.
His mouth pulled into a snarl, revealing
more of his fangs. “Why are you being so damn stubborn?”
The sight of his canines boiled her blood
and strengthened her desire. With her hands clasped tightly together, she
raised her head. “Because I want you—I want this. Look, we’re two consenting
adults here. And I was married for ten years, so I’m no virgin. But I’ve also
been divorced for a quite some time, and I...” Her courage faltered, but she
kept going. “I haven’t been with a man since.”
“I told you. I’m not a man, Princess.”
“I know that, but I—”
“Lady, you have no clue what you want—you’ve
no clue who I am. If ya did, you sure as shit wouldn’t want anything from me,
especially sex.”
Eleanor was about to say he underestimated
himself, but remembered how angry he’d gotten when she’d said something similar
earlier that morning. “I’m not a child. I know what I want, and that’s you.”
Sin narrowed his eyes, his body rigid. “You
do understand you’d only be just another fuck to me—another notch on my very
lengthy belt of conquests. There’ll be no feelings involved. I have none to
give, and I ain’t interested in any from you.”
His words took the wind out of her desire.
Damn. In the face of his direct declaration, could she go through with it?
Yes. This is a once-in-a-lifetime
experience, so don’t stop now. You know he’ll never shower you with love—and
you don’t want his love, just mind-blowing sex.
“I understand perfectly,” she whispered.
“And I’m not looking for love.”
Sin didn’t move or speak, but his eyes said
it all. He wanted her as much as she wanted him.
Eleanor’s muscles vibrated, and her breasts
swelled with anticipation. Did he need her to come to him? Make the first move?
So be it. Walking on trembling legs, she
slowly closed the gap between them. Each step brought her closer to what she
craved.
“Princess,” he said with a groan. His dark
gaze latched onto her breasts then snapped to her face. “Are you sure about
this?”
“Never been more sure of anything in my
life.” And she hadn’t. She needed Sin. Why, she couldn’t explain—and didn’t
care to right now. All she knew was she had to feel him next to her, inside
her—holding her.
Just before she reached him, he raised a
hand, signaling her to stop. Panic flared in his eyes. His jaw snapped tight,
and he moved farther from her.
“Sin?” He was ready to run; she saw it
clearly in his body language.
“I’m leavin’.” He grabbed his jean jacket
off the floor next to the leather chair.
“Why?” The disappointment in her tone was
obvious as the panic stamped on his face.
“Because I’m saving you from making the
biggest mistake of your life.” Sin shot her a look full of regret then
disappeared.
Name: Brenda Dyer
Where you are from: Victoria,
British Columbia, Canada
Writing Genre: Paranormal Romance
Tell us about yourself: I’m married
and a mother of two grown sons. I live on a hobby farm with two miniature
horses, chickens, and ducks. When I’m not writing or farting around on
facebook, I love to garden. I’m going to attempt growing corn again this year.
Was an epic failure the last time I tried growing it.
Your latest work in progress: My
current work in progress is a novella from The Prophecy Series called,
Prophecy’s Origin. This one is a little different because it is written in
Lucifer’s POV.
When did you begin writing and why? I
started writing back in 2008. How my writing journey started was back in ’08, I
read this book—it was part of a series—and I hated the ending. I hated it so
much that I tried to come up with my own ending for the story. But what
happened was characters of my own came to me. Plots, backstories—detailed
history behind the world I was beginning to create. I sat down, and before I
truly knew what I was doing, I had written the very rough draft of my first
novel.
What inspires you to write? I have
to say my characters. I’d like to say my family, but they don’t understand my
need to write, lol. They just want dinner.
Are any of your books based on something personal that has
happened in your life? Not really. Just my weirdo beliefs
in certain things.
Who are some of your favorite authors? J.R.R Tolkien is #1 on my list. That man and his writing have
inspired me so much.
Favorite book? The Lord of the Rings
Trilogy. The Silmarillion. J.R Ward’s BDB novels, Sherrilyn Kenyon—the list
goes on and on.
Would you change anything that has happened to you? Totally. This list goes on and on, too.
Can you share some of your WIP? The
snippet I shared isn’t from my current WIP. It is from my latest release,
Prophecy’s Language.
“Fuck.” Sin shoved a hand
through his tangled hair as he paced the short length of the room. He stopped
and eyed her up and down.
The coldness of his gaze froze
her to the bone, but heated up her libido.
His brown stare locked with
hers. “If you knew what I wanted to do to you right now—right here—you’d run so
fucking fast there’d be smoke coming from your heels.”
Eleanor’s mouth opened, but
she couldn’t speak. The fierceness of his essence swirled around her like a
rope, holding her still.
Slowly, Sin sauntered across
the room, never breaking eye contact. His wide shoulders rolled with his lethal
gate.
Eleanor backed up until her
ass hit the wall. He kept coming. Flattening her hands on the blockade, she
turned her head, not sure what he’d do. This Sin scared her.
Sin placed his large hands on
both sides of her head and leaned in until their chests touched. “My willpower
is snapping, my little Princess.”
What’s the hardest part of writing? For
me, the hardest part about writing is writing. Some days it flows well, then
others, it’s hard to find the right words. On the tough days, I close my
document and find something else to do. Forcing the words doesn’t work well for
me.
Do you have any other hobbies? Sure
do. I like gardening. Watching T.V. Drawing and painting—but I don’t do these
ones very often anymore.
Favorite TV show and song? Supernatural. Fav songs change all the time. Right now, I’m
into listening to Halestorm.
Fast Fire Round Pick One:
Dildo or vibrator? Lol, I thought they were the same thing. Shows you what I know—which isn’t much,
apparently. I’m going with vibrator.
Inside or Outside? Outside.
Hard or Rough? Both—they go hand in
hand, lol.
Beard or No Beard? No beard—but
stubble is awesome.
Long Hair or Short? Long
Sour or Sweet? Sweet
Top or Bottom? Top.
Missionary or Doggiestyle? Doggie!
Tall or Short? Tall.
Ice Cream or Candy? Ice Cream.
