Welcome to the 106th week of My Sexy Saturday.
This week’s theme: That Sexy Time of Day
There are people who make love in the morning. There are people who make love at night. Or maybe it’s the afternoon. Whenever it is, it’s that sexy time of day.
And today I'm subletting my blog to Rue Allyn. She's here to promote her new book and show us her book boyfriend. Take it away Rue.
Hi
Zrinka, thank you very much for this chance to share a bit of Knight
Errant with you and your readers.
He
had failed to dent her serene armor. Worse, he had committed himself to a
troublesome and unnecessary journey to Palermo. How had she done it? Without
saying a word, Juliana had somehow bent his will to hers, and he had not even
gotten her clear promise to return to England.
He
studied her shining calm. His father had worn a similar serenity. Robert had
adored the man’s good-natured control. Control that cloaked an evil too great
to tolerate, even in a beloved parent.
What
threat to a man’s soul did Lady Juliana hide beneath her tranquility? He watched the gentle sway of her hips as she
went to help the cook with his pots. Robert’s body hardened, despite the
knowledge that he would never touch her. The woman was a menace. Edward was
right to want her under some man’s thumb. It could not happen soon enough to
suit Robert.
Too
bad Palermo lay more than a month distant and the same back again. ’Twas more
weeks of traveling with her serenity than he wanted to risk. But risk it he
must. He could not simply ignore her. Before they reached Palermo, he had to
convince Juliana to return to England. Saint Swithan’s shroud! How he was to
accomplish that without setting hands on her, he did not know.
Every
medieval woman needs a weapon, Juliana Verault’s sharpest blade is her smile,
but Robert Clarwyn soon realizes how to get under the lady’s guard. For more
about Knight Errant and my other books I provide a blurb and links
below.
BLURB
Lady Juliana Verault gladly left England—and its men—far behind in
her quest to live as a Beguine. But the Christian community ceases to provide a
safe haven when she’s called to travel to Palermo, Italy, where she’s entrusted
with a letter from the pope that could radically change the church’s stance on
women. Juliana holds the key to upending the power structure throughout Europe,
but only if she can dodge her cousin, King Edward I of England, and his
betrothal plans for her.
Edward
sets Sir Robert Clarwyn, a knight errant and loyal hunter of criminals and
traitors, on Juliana’s trail to retrieve her. Robert has never failed to bring
home his target before … but then, he has never encountered a quarry like Lady
Juliana, who can befuddle and bemuse him with just a smile.
If he
can’t find a way to compel her to return to England, he’ll lose any chance of
regaining his family lands and redeeming his heritage. Yet Juliana must
complete her mission or risk endangering her gender’s future in the faith.
With danger and intrigue mounting,
Robert and Juliana must rely on each other and be willing to risk everything …
including their hearts.
