ReplyDeleteHi Teddy,
ReplyDeleteHere's my teaser from p. 15 of Elizabeth Hoyt's TO BEGUILE A BEAST.
Two weeks ago, Helen wouldn't have even let them (meaning her children) touch something that dusty.
But the, two weeks ago, she'd still been the Duke of Lister's mistress.
She hooked me there!
Best,
Emily
Thanks for sharing Em, I have To Beguile a Beast waiting for me too.
ReplyDeletePainted Veil is moving slowly, not because it's not good but because I'm dying from the flu, so will hopefully look at it thru non-flu hazed eyes next week!
I am interested in reading this someday... when my pile shrinks ;}.
