He fought<\/strong> Selena\u2019s fists tightened in the dirt and rocks. She picked up a large rock and flung<\/strong> Selena picked up more rocks and hurled them. At home, she\u2019d often played ball with the children who visited the commune. She was considered a good pitcher, but she\u2019d never imagined that she\u2019d use skills from a harmless game to do violence.<\/strong><\/p>\n A soldier\u2019s blade pierced his hip, and Jade grunted. Selena flung a rock the size of a grapefruit and struck the Kimbrian in the back of the head. She took down another while Jade finished off the remaining soldiers.<\/strong><\/p>\n She didn\u2019t wait a moment before running to Jade to inspect his injuries. Panting and dripping sweat, he dropped the enemy sword and limped toward her, embracing her with his free arm. His other hand still gripped his machete.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cAre you all right?\u201d he asked roughly.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m fine, but you\u2019re hurt again. Oh, Jade. I\u2019ll get the first aid kit.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n Tears welled in her eyes. He\u2019d been stabbed and slashed and she wasn\u2019t certain the first aid kit would be enough. Making her way toward the kit, she glanced around at the bodies strewn across the cave floor.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWhat did I do?\u201d she murmured. <\/strong><\/p>\n She\u2019d taken lives. That was strictly forbidden. She shouldn\u2019t kill, no matter what the reason.<\/strong><\/p>\n Still, she couldn\u2019t worry about that now. She had to help Jade. She picked up the first aid kit, turned and practically crashed into his chest.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cSelena.\u201d He grasped her shoulders and stared into her eyes. \u201cAre you all right?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cNo, but we have to take care of you first. You\u2019re\u2014\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n She stared at him, dumbfounded, and placed a hand to his sweat-dampened uniform that had, just a moment ago, been torn and bloody from a shoulder wound. She stepped back and examined him thoroughly. He wasn\u2019t injured at all. <\/strong><\/p>\n Around them, the bodies of the Kimbrian soldiers vanished.<\/strong><\/p>\n Blurb:<\/strong><\/p>\n What happens when a warrior priest from a strict religion meets a free-spirited priestess from a new age commune?<\/p>\n 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 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 Pre-Order Links:\u00a0Amazon<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0Apple Books<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0Barnes & Noble<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0kobo<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0\u00a0Smashwords<\/a>\u00a0\/<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Powered by Linky Tools<\/b><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/kate-hill.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/warriorpriestbookcover200x300.jpg\")
