Inspired by his angelic face, Elaine of Rockland calls the injured man she has plucked from the sea and nursed back to health Gabriel. With no memory of who he was before, Gabriel has nevertheless retained his skills as a healer and a warrior and uses both to aid the people who saved his life, building a new life for himself in Rockland. But despite the irresistible passion that ignites between him and Elaine, and the love that neither can deny, his past catches up with both of them and threatens to destroy them.
The following excerpt from THE MAD KNIGHT’S BRIDE is for readers 18 and over.
While Elaine gathered firewood, Gabriel pitched their tent.
As dusk turned to darkness, they sat talking by a fire.
“I like being completely alone with you like this.” Elaine licked her fingers and discarded a bone from the piece of rabbit she’d been eating.
Gabriel drew her into his arms and licked her lips.
“Take me, Gabriel,” she whispered fiercely, straddling him and clutching handfuls of hair at his nape. She bit his lower lip and parted his cloak, slipping her hands beneath his billowy shirt and stroking his ribs. Her palms pressed to the hard muscles of his chest, her fingers biting.
His hands mirrored her actions, his palms gently cupping the softness of her breasts, his thumbs brushing her nipples while he kissed her, his eyes closed, completely absorbed in her kisses. Smiling wickedly, she removed a hand from his chest and dipped it in the snow. He gasped into her mouth as her ice-cold hand stroked him where he was hard and clutched him where he was soft. His kiss became more demanding, his body shivering from more than just the cold. She’d guessed that dipping her hand in a patch of snow would get his attention. Most
men would have shriveled from the cold, but not Gabriel. Severe sensations aroused him far more than gentle touches.
