Hey Everyone!
Fae King’s Temptation is on pre-order!!!
I’ve sat on this book for months. I know, crazy, right? But here it is. I’m so excited to have you read it. Not that you’d be able to divine that little tid-bit by the gnawed state of my nails. It seems those crazy author nerves don’t get any easier the more books I write.
You’ll be happy to know the second book in the series, Fae King’s Hunger, will launch very close to the first. I’m currently working feverishly on the manuscript’s completion as I write this blog post. I’ll have the final pre-order information posted to my web page once I’ve received the book back from my editor.
And guys, the cover for this book is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
In the meantime, here’s an excerpt from Fae King’s Temptation to tide you over.
(Excerpt from Fae King’s Temptation by Layla Harper ©2019)
I rip the covering from my head to find I’m surrounded by tall trees. A bitter breeze sets my teeth chattering anew.
Not wasting any time, I spring to my feet and take off through the trees before my attackers realize their error. My gaze flings from side to side. No concrete paths. No brick buildings. No pond. No Doras Ring. Just miles and miles of forest.
How long was I out? And where the hell am I that it’s so freaking cold?
I hear noises up ahead. I can’t distinguish if they’re animal sounds or bad guy grunts, so I forge ahead, pumping my arms and pushing my legs as fast as they’ll go.
Fear is starting to do bad things to my insides. I can’t hyperventilate. I can’t. Not now. Not until I’m somewhere safe. A place where I can stop and make sense of this craziness without losing my mind.
Something crashes against my back.
I stumble, flailing my arms in the air in a futile attempt to catch my balance. I hit the ground hard, landing on my left shoulder with a loud “oomph.” Groaning, I quickly roll onto my hands and knees and freeze.
Three men circle me.
Wait, are those masks?
Because if those aren’t masks over their heads, then three humanoid-looking men are staring at me through yellow eyes like I’m a dinner buffet on legs.
