MIND YOUR GODDESS – WYTCHFAE 3
Cool jazz and hot kisses…
The Goddess Epona awakens in the Roaring 20’s. Can this flapper summon the razzle dazzle to reclaim her powers and the heart of her dark Guardian?
Excerpt:
The moon hung round and golden on the western horizon. Rustling branches along its way, a slight breeze stirred the pre-dawn air. Dark shapes emerged as roses and hedgerows. Epona shivered and rubbed her bare arms.
Warmth returned as Eshigel enfolded her in his embrace. The silk of his eye patch brushed against her cheek. “Our night together disappeared like a hell phantom. Stay here with me, Goddess.”
The low timbre of his voice slid as rough velvet over her skin. When he nuzzled her throat, a delicate tremble rippled her body. “Darling, I’d like nothing better, if you hadn’t made me promise to send you home at dawn.”
“I don’t want to go.”
“I don’t want you to.”
Now tell me, what era would you choose to visit if you could go back in time?
Cheers & Happy Reading from Flossie Benton Rogers, Conjuring the Magic with Paranormal Fantasy Romance
Happy Birthday to YOU,
Happy Birthday to YOU,
Happy Birthday, dear Flossie,
Happy Birthday to Youuuuu!
And to Epona too!
I’d like to live during Celtic times when women were equal to men.
My goodness, you have a lovely voice, Carmen. Thank you for the birthday song. I would love to visit the Celtic times you’re talking about. Have you read the Sister Fidelma books set in those times?
I’m ashamed to admit I haven’t though I have a large number of them. Will do it one day. Thanks for the suggestion!
I think I only own one of the Sister Fidelma books, but I read most of them when I was at the library. I would love to own them all. They are the type of books I like to hold in my hand, although it would make more sense to have them on the ebook reader, wouldn’t it?
Congratulations, Flossie! A belated Happy, Happy Birthday and a huge congrats on the one year anniversary of MIND YOUR GODDESS. I loved taking a trip back to the Roaring 20s with your novel and Epona.
I’m intrigued by many of history, including the Jazz Age, but I think if I could choose to live in any, I would pick the Victorian Age or the Regency Era. I love the romance of both! 🙂
BTW, lovely photo!!
Mae, I can SO see you floating around in your lovely gown in the Victorian and Regency eras. You’d be the belle of the ball.
I’d be with you in the 20s. What a fun era. Hope the birthday was super! Jillian
You’d fit right in, as you’re the cat’s pajamas, Jillian!
