Rainbow Snippet 16-17 April




Rainbow Snippets is a group for LGBTQ + authors, readers, and bloggers to gather and share six sentences from a work of fiction- a WIP or a finished work, or a book recommendation.


We would like to thank you for visiting our blog and reading, and commenting on the snippets from Druids Lodge.

Here's another snippet from our new book, Druids Lodge. Due out on May 2nd, at Dreamspinner Press.

Luke glanced around. “It’s a wonderful party. I’d love some crackling, honey.” Luke winked.

“As you wish.” Finn playfully slapped Luke’s ass as he left to do as Luke requested, a smile on his face. Honey indeed! He selected a couple of crispy pieces, then became sidetracked by the array of sweets and in particular a rich chocolate mousse cake. He carefully cut a huge wedge and picked up a couple forks. They could share. When he turned, Eric, the fucking Viking, was all over Luke like a rash. Finn saw red, and the cat was all for eviscerating him on the spot.


The Blurb


What lurks in Dartmoor?
After his father's death, Finn Darcy returns to his ancestral home to become chief of his werecat clan. The mysterious Druids Lodge lies nestled in the shadows of Dartmoor National Park, where the legendary Beast of Dartmoor, a large panther, roams the woods and moors.
Finn cannot take his place at the head of the clan before he claims his mate, Luke Devlin, the one he marked while still a child. Feeling he was deceived at the start of their relationship, Luke refuses to accept his fate. He bides his time, determined to escape when the opportunity presents itself before Finn’s jealous and possessive dual nature destroys everything they have left.
But then werecats and their mates start disappearing, and Finn is adamant his mate must be protected at all cost. 
Events take a grim turn when Finn is abducted and forced to fight for his life. Luke must choose between his chance at freedom or saving Finn.

  1. I'm thinking Eric the Viking better watch his back.

    1. Finn is definitely the jealous type. Thanks

  3. Interesting! I don't know if I'm on the right track or not, but I'm suspicious of Luke's motive in sending Finn off to fetch him some crackling.

    1. Thanks for your comment. Ulterior motives, or just wants some crackling.

  4. Uh oh Eric is probably headed for trouble here (but the food sounds divine).

  5. Forget Luke, eat chocolate.

    Or use one of the forks to gouge Eric's eyeballs out, whichever strikes your fancy.

    (I sense a fun scene coming up, though!)

    1. Finn likes Luke just a little bit more than chocolate, but, he could be tempted by the old fork to the eyeball trick. Thanks for your comments.
