Waiting for Something to Destroy It – Scarlet Nights #weekendwritingwarriors #vampireromance

Posted on by Kate

It’s been a while since I’ve participated in the Weekend Writing Warriors. I’ve been working on edits for the Darkness Therein and Interludes, and I finally finished Manticore and it’s currently with my editor at Changeling Press.

I’m glad to be catching up on my blogging again!

Today I’m sharing an excerpt from Scarlet Nights that was released in September. It includes the previously published novellas Starving Artist, Hungry Novice, and Feasting with the Enemy. Now Blair and May’s entire story is collected into one book.

Thank you for stopping by!

Excerpt:

After a moment, she opened her eyes to look at him. He took her hand and kissed the back of it, then gazed at their entwined fingers, a far-off expression in his eyes.

“That’s a quizzical look,” she remarked. “What are you thinking about?”

“Just that I never thought I could be this happy again.”

She smiled.

“And that I’m waiting for something to destroy it.”

Her smile faded and she squeezed his hand. “Blair, you must learn to live for the moment — to enjoy what’s happening now and stop worrying about the future until it comes.”

“You’re starting to sound like Hamilton.”

Scarlet Nights

by Kate Hill

Driven by rage at the death of his family, Blair dedicates his new life as a vampire to fighting evil. But when he fails to save a family from the fate his own suffered, he retreats to endure self-imposed starvation while he immerses himself in his art.

Alone and penniless, May is hired to care for Blair’s country manor. She is soon infatuated with the handsome, tormented artist who has deeper secrets than she could ever imagine.

The mysterious New Reign is seeking additional members. Their philosophy — recruit or destroy. Given the chance to resurrect his murdered first wife and children, will Blair now sacrifice the woman he loves — his wife and blood child, May?

Scarlet Nights  contains the previously published novellas Starving Artist, Hungry Novice, and Feasting With the Enemy.

  2. He should listen to her. Worrying too much about happiness being destroyed will take all of fun out of being happy.
