Emerald Fire teasers
Here's a teaser from the fantasy novel Emerald Fire. Don't forget, the ebook is free for Kindle until 6-3-19.
They waited for a week for the girl to make an appearance. It came as Sandel carried the milk back to Derah to churn for butter. He turned at the sound of footsteps on the path. There she stood, painfully thin with impossibly large emerald eyes. “Can I please have milk?”
“Of course, you can, lass. Come with me to the cottage where it’s warm.” She shook her head vigorously and backed away from where he stood. “Tell you what, Derah and I will leave milk each day in a bottle with a cork stopper. Would that be all right?”
“You better not trick me,” came the reply. She put more distance between them. “Tricks are not nice.”
“I promise never to trick you, Loriann. That was your name, wasn’t it?” he reassured.

Here's another Emerald Fire teaser. Enjoy!
Kaegan found that he was drowning in the depths of her eyes. “You could share the bed with me. I promise to behave like a gentleman.”
“No, the floor is fine,” she replied. Loriann placed the heavy pack by the fireplace. She took a seat on the floor and leaned against the wall. The cloak wrapped tightly about her body would ward off the night chill.
He stoked the fire, squatting next to her as he fed one small piece of wood after another to the flickering flame. Taking a chance, he touched her arm, “You can sleep in the bed with me, honest I won’t bite.” The cold steel of the dagger’s edge was at his throat before the glimmer of light on steel could register in his mind.
The blade pressed harder. “If you touch me again, I’ll carve your eyes out of your head and leave you for the crows.”
