Rainbow Snippets

Here are six sentences from our new book, Druids Lodge. Due out on May 2nd, at Dreamspinner Press.






Henry had told him the legends of Dartmoor, of the Devil and the Wild Hunt, the spectral hounds, of travelers attacked in these very woods. His father had warned him repeatedly about those who fell prey to the mysterious Beast of Dartmoor. A shiver ran down his spine. He had an eerie sense of being watched. The blackness obscured everything except what was in his immediate proximity. Behind him a branch snapped. Lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a crash of thunder.


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 man 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 love the idea of weaving old legends with the shifter ethos. And of course anything that has Druids in it is a must for me :D

  3. Uh oh. Perhaps he should have listened to his father's warnings? (But then again, where would be the fun in that?)

  5. Oh my! Druids, shifters, darkness and passion. If that's not a perfect combination I dunno what is! Great snippet and I hope there'll be more next week!

    1. Druids Lodge is the name of Finn's ancestral home. Alas we have no Druids, but the darkness, shifters, and passion are all there. Thank you
