Description:
Golden
Alexander is trapped in a nightmare.
Trying
to flee her hallucination of a demon, she runs heart first into the
brooding alpha male she’s been dreaming about for years, and then
her nightmare really begins.
Kris
Pietka is done with women...he’s broken. But when he meets Golden,
an overwhelming need to protect her tests everything he thought he
knew about himself, and the paranormal.
A
bond forged centuries ago thrusts them together as they search for a
way to break an ancient Druid curse prophesying their demise. Racing
against the clock, they travel from Vermont, to the Carpathian
Mountains in Poland, and the Scottish Highlands in search of answers
and a way to break the curse.
But
something evil watches—it covets, and time is running out.
Will
fate allow love to prevail against unbeatable odds, or will Golden
wake to find it was all a delusion?

Excerpt:
The
side door to the house opened behind her.
“Matka?
Dzien dobry? Ma? Hello?”
The
deep male voice filled the kitchen. Filled her. Her muscles
tightened, her arms vibrated like she’d been doing yard work for
the last hour and had just turned off the weed whacker.
Mary
raised an eyebrow in her direction before looking past her to the
door. “Kris, proszę meet Golden. Come, come.”
Heavy
boots sounded on the wooden steps. The loud thumping stopped as if in
mid-step and an invisible electric current slammed into her back.
Heat spread through her and settled in her belly.
“Matka,
what’s going on here?”
“Golden
is your Babci’s new caregiver.” Mary enunciated as if she were
speaking to a five-year-old. “I told you last week she answered the
ad and was coming today. She’ll be starting on Monday.”
Mary
glared at Kris and then turned to Golden with an apologetic smile on
her face. Kris moved around the table and stood next to his mother.
Her
mouth fell open.
He
narrowed his piercing blue eyes at her, and a lock of sandy brown
hair fell from behind his ear.
He
looked exactly like the man she’d been dreaming of for years.
The
once cozy kitchen felt tiny. Airless. Too hot. Using the table as a
lever, Golden forced herself to stand and shot a glance in Mary’s
direction, worried she was hallucinating her dream man and looked
delusional. It wouldn’t be the first time she’d acted crazy.
Okay, Mary didn’t act like her new employee was tripping her ass
off. Good to know.
Words
in a language she didn’t understand flew out of his mouth, his
unfriendly gaze fixed on her. Wow, angry much? He was obviously
talking about her in a not so nice way, which pissed her off.
Combined with her confusion, she was a hot mess. And all the while
her emotions were ping ponging, her body pulsed, begging for this
jerkoff to touch her.
His
brows furrowed, and he ranted as though she weren’t in the room.
Rude. New plan. She’d figure out how she’d dreamt of him later.
First, she wanted to know what he had against her and why she reacted
to the jerk like he’d brought her a dozen roses while hanging out
the sunroof of a limo.
Mary
cut him off with a single word. “Dosyć!” She closed her eyes and
whispered, “Enough.”
Kris
sucked in a breath, and without another word, pivoted on his heel and
walked deeper into the house.
What
was wrong with him? Ever hear of anger management classes? And what
was wrong with her Benedict Arnold body? Pick an emotion and stick to
it. Anger, that’s what was called for here. Not, gee you’re hot,
I’ve been dreaming of you for years. Want to hook up?
Figures,
the one guy that finally made her wake up and say hell yes was a
total turd.
