In the WeWriWa blog hop writers share 8-10 sentences from one of their stories.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t done very well these past few months with keeping up with blogging, but I finally have a release date for Warrior Priest. That one has taken quite a while to reach the new release stage, and I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s only a little over a month away.<\/p>\n<p>I posted a few excerpts from Warrior Priest last year, but here&#8217;s another. \ud83d\ude42 In this scene, the hero, Jade, has been injured. His friend, Asa, is treating him. It&#8217;s the first time Selena meets Asa.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for stopping by!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jade bristled. He loved Asa, but the man knew how to rile him and often took pleasure in it. \u201cWhat\u2019s that supposed to mean?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cOnly that if she\u2019s been able to handle you, injured or not, she has my respect. Can you believe, Selena, that he and his good friend Shayne are probably the worst patients I\u2019ve ever treated? Stubborn. Thick-headed. At least Shayne has a sense of humor, though. This one is usually so God-loving miserable and a complete pain in the posterior.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cAsa was absent when they taught bedside manner,\u201d Jade said.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Warrior Priest<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(Science Fiction Romance)<\/p>\n<p>What happens when a warrior priest from a strict religion meets a free-spirited priestess from a new age commune?<\/p>\n<p>Jade and Selena are as different as two people can be, but to facilitate an alliance between their worlds, they engage in a cultural exchange. With their galaxy in danger from a planet that wants to conquer or destroy all others, they realize the importance of their assignment, but it is difficult for a warrior priest and a nonviolent priestess to understand each other.<\/p>\n<p>Selena is both attracted and appalled by his old school masculinity, and Jade is tempted to break his vow of celibacy until marriage due to his powerful desire for her. Will this unlikely pair not only find common ground, but unconditional love?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Warrior Priest<\/strong> is available for pre-order at \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Warrior-Priest-Kate-Hill-ebook\/dp\/B096BGK6RM\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=kate+hill+warrior+priest&amp;qid=1622926456&amp;sr=8-1\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0\/<a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/ca\/book\/warrior-priest\/id1570525891\">\u00a0Apple Books<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/warrior-priest-kate-hill\/1139625049?ean=2940164924720\">Barnes &amp; Noble<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/warrior-priest-3\">kobo<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1087232\">Smashwords<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If anyone reading this post happens to be on Pinterest, I&#8217;ve recently opened an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/katehillromanceandmore\/\">account<\/a>\u00a0and would love to connect with you there, if you would like.<\/p>\n<p>See you next week!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read snippets from other authors in the Weekend Writing Warriors Blog hop <a href=\"http:\/\/wewriwa.blogspot.com\/\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello!
