Heaven-Sent
Highlander
Warriors
in Bronze Book 2
by
Nancy Lee Badger
Genre:
Paranormal Romance
A
Scottish Highlander falls in battle only to awaken beside bronze
statues at a present-day museum. Befriended by a beautiful Fae
creature and her allies, he must defeat a demon or die.
At
an American museum, surrounded by Auguste Rodin’s bronze statues, a
Scottish Fae beauty is at a crossroads. Now that Gwendolyn’s
friends are engaged, and the demon they fought vanquished, should she
return home? After committing a terrible act, she could not explain
to her cousin why she had appeared on his doorstep.
Alexander
awoke in darkness inside a bronze statue, remembering how the green
of Scotland’s Culloden field had turned red with blood that day in
1746. Had he died before awakening nude and sightless in front of
strangers in present-day Raleigh, North Carolina? The mystery of how
was overshadowed by why. Told that another warrior awoke when a demon
threatened to take over the world, had a second demon escaped Hell?
When the demon appears and demands Gwen join him, Alex must use all
his new skills, weapons, and Heaven-sent powers to keep her and the
world safe.
His face was a
bruised mess, and his hair still had leaves entwined in the strands.
His voice was like a sorcerer’s . . . low and too pleasant to
ignore. Why
would he want me to stay? “Lass,” he said,
chuckling, “why else would a man wish a woman to stay? There be a
verra soft bed and darkness to conquer.” “Now you sound
more like the man I ran away from, not too long ago. He wanted me to
lie with him, as well. I choose who. I choose when. Do you
understand?” As her voice rose, she stepped away. He grew closer, and
she could smell the forest on his skin. She gave him a gentle shove,
pushing him inside the room. His hand whipped out for balance and
smacked against her breasts. “Heaven above!
Take care, warrior, or you will sleep the sleep of the dead!” “My pardon. I seem
to keep missing the mark. I meant to drag ye close, and kiss ye, but
I am a fumbling idjit.”
His shoulders slumped again, and he shuffled farther into the room. “Wait. I did not
mean to sound like such a shrew.” He turned, but did
not quite meet her gaze. “Ye are no’ a wee mouse-like beastie.” “A figure of
speech. Sorry.” “May I share a
kiss?” Could a simple kiss
goodnight hurt? She had felt pain from many aspects of lovemaking,
but . . . “I would never do
anything to harm ye, lass.” Before she could
answer, Alex slid a muscular arm around her waist, and drew her into
his chest, then into the room. Both hands slid up her sides, as if he
was following a roadmap like the ones she and Sam had learned to
read. When one hand cupped the back of her head, he drew her to his
mouth, and settled his lips against hers. His touch was gentle and
his lips were soft and warm. A click meant the door had closed.
