I might be late getting to the other blog posts this week. My daughter had surgery on Friday and I am here playing nurse- I am so NOT a nurse.
This week's excerpt is from my medieval fantasy romance – A Voice in the Air
Scene Set – Cadi hears some wonderful news.
Excerpt –
Cadi finished her mug of ale then placed it on the table. With the hollowness in her belly filled, she settled back in her chair.
“The rest of today is yers.” Fira waved her hand. “Wander about the manor house. Speak with Aderyn. Ye are about the same age. Then sleep this eventide. On the morrow, we will begin the preparations for yer journey.”
“Journey? I have never been anywhere. Where will I be going?”
“Ye have to find my son. Ewen. And bring him back home.” Fira smiled. “The blush on yer cheeks at the mention of his name warms my heart. I am glad he is loved.”
wee bit more
Cadi scratched her fingernail against the wooden table. “Aye, he is loved. But he does not know it. Nor returns it.” A spark of joy lit inside her. She looked up. “Ewen is alive?”
Blurb and Links
Squire Ewen followed his liege into battle with a head full of romantic notions of knights, heroics, and damsels in distress. Being captured by a troll, thrown into a cave, and awaiting a hideous death was not how he had foreseen his adventure to play out.
Can Ewen stay out of trouble long enough for Cadi to rescue him? Will Cadi overcome her doubts and fears and bring her beloved Ewen home to Plucks Ridge?
Or will the petty evilness of The Scorned One defeat all and destroy the magickal realm?
If you love action, humour, quirky characters, and romance, then Daryl Devoré’s latest medieval fantasy romance – A Voice in the Air – is a must read.

ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteReally loved this
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI like this, haven't seen the concept of resting up and having one nice night before the quest begins used before. Great snippet!
ReplyDelete:-)
DeleteShe's both scared and excited to go looking for him. Great mixed feelings.
ReplyDeleteMeant to add, hope your daughter recovers soon.
DeleteYes, Cadi is. And thank you.
DeleteI loved that it took her a moment to realize Ewen was alive. Joy cometh in the morning. I'm certain she is the perfect person for this mission. Love is a great motivator. Tweeted. And I hope your daughter is doing well. Hope also this was a planned surgery, not emergent.
ReplyDeleteYes, she was so focused on what Fira was saying - the implication didn't dawn on her at first. Yes, the surgery was planned.
DeletePraying for your daughter. Great snippet, loved how it suddenly all clicked.
ReplyDeleteThank you for both.
DeleteLovely scene.
ReplyDeleteThe quiet before the storm. A moment of pause full of meaning. Great snippet!
