Spring Fling Blog Hop
WELCOME TO MY BLOG ON THE SPRING FLING BLOG HOP!
What a great way to ring in the spring season by sharing some of my debut paranormal/historical romance, His Haven, and hosting TWO awesome giveaways! Exciting!
I don’t know about you all, but I’m tired of the cold weather. We got too much snow on the east coast. I love heat, so summer needs to come sooner! My paranormal/historical romance takes place during the fall/winter months. I’d much rather read stories set in the cold and snow while laying on a lounge chair on the beach. Wouldn’t you? And His Haven is available in both ebook and print formats, so you can read it on your e-reader or in paperback while enjoying this beautiful warm weather!
HIS HAVEN
Ignorance isn’t always bliss…
Handsome and diligent Avrum Brenin should have died in the fire with his mother and older brother. Instead, he is saved by the powerful and wealthy immortal, Lord Henri. Placed under his care, Avrum shares in his world of endless splendors. He must do one thing in return—look after Haven, a human and Lord Henri’s newest rescue.
The simple task proves to be more complicated than it seems. Haven is disobedient, ungrateful, and hostile, yet she is beautiful and mystifying at the same time. One night, when Avrum stumbles across Haven barely clothed and bound at the wrists, the world he has trusted in unravels before his eyes. He soon discovers that no one—from Lord Henri and Haven to his closest friend, Lysander—are who they seem to be.
Now faced with the truth, will Avrum choose to surrender to the man who rescued him, or will he have the courage to save the woman who captivated him?

Avrum stared at her for a long while, saying nothing. Slowly, his eyes returned to their normal soft brown color. He released her wrists, and his attention dropped to her parted lips. Haven remained still as his hand slid down her arm and entangled in her hair. His mouth pressed against hers with such desperation that it stole her breath away. She could feel his body soften against hers, the anger gone. His tongue ran along the seam of her lips, and she opened for him, enjoying the little explosions of heat that spread throughout her body in every place his skin touched.
He took his time kissing her, his movements never rough, but tender and full of need. Then, he released her lips and pressed his forehead against hers. Her breath came in short, quick gasps as he looked down at her. “I would never do any of those terrible things to you,” Avrum whispered to her, “because I am not like him.”
“I know,” she said softly. “I should have never said it.”
“I would never do anything to hurt you. I need you here, Haven. I need you here with me.”
Haven’s heart clenched. He wasn’t like Henri at all. His touches were gentle and slow. She wondered how she could ever compare the two. There was no fear, no pain with him. Haven tilted her chin and captured his mouth with hers again. He kissed her with just as much fervor as before, which made her knees weak and her head swim. A pleasant hum coursed through her, and the desire to feel him closer to her became overwhelming. She wanted him. She wanted him more than anything else.
Avrum’s hand ran up her back, causing her to arch forward and press more into his hard chest. His lips traveled along her jaw. A small whimper escaped her. She could feel his fingers grasping the strings at the nape of her neck. He pulled them until the knot gave way. His hand moved along her shoulder, taking the thin cotton material of the nightgown with it.
Haven twisted her hips, heat pooling at her center. Her nightgown slid down her arms, settling around her hips. The cool attic air kissed her newly exposed flesh, and it wasn’t long before Avrum’s hands were on her again, cupping her breasts and running up and down her flat belly. Haven almost cried out from the sheer pleasure of it.
She knotted her hands in his shoulder-length hair, the tie falling away. She had never felt anything like this before. It felt like her skin was crawling with electricity and simplest touch could send her over the edge.

Thanks for the blurb, sounds like a good book. My favorite time is spring, because it is when life renews itself. Thanks for the giveaway. Koala571 at msn dot com
Ha ha! Sam and Dean crack me up!
My favorite season is autumn because it’s cooler, grayer, and smells better 😉

Great post!! Thanks so much for being part of the hop :)) I absolutely love Spring. But my favorite season has to be Summer. I love the heat, the sunshine, the unpredictable weather, the possibility that anything can happen and especially the late nights outside listening to nature <3 As soon as the nights get chilly, I get grumpy. LOL

I am really having some fun on this hop finding new (to me) authors and their works. I have signed up to follow and am looking forward to the journey. I have to say spring or fall – both generally (notice I say generally LOL) have moderate temperatures and each has their own beauty. The spring offers the warming and all the fresh growth and let’s not forget the wonderfully fun daffodils, while the fall offers tempering of the heat of summer with the beauty of the changing leaves. I do think that perhaps spring will will, however, it is the daffodils 😉 Thank you for participating in the fun.

Of course, Spring is my favorite. It’s weather, flowers and most of all the romantic atmosphere appeals to me the most. 🙂
Spring, because it usually is not too hot or cold (I say usually because this year didn’t start out that way LOL_)
