Dear Gentle Readers,
I am sure you have heard me rave about how much I love Iona Morrison's books. From her first one, Harvest Club, I have been a big fan of the Blue Cove books. This is her new one and I am so excited to continue reading about Jessie, who is am empath, and her handsome lawman boyfriend, Matt, as well as the ghosts and villains that show up along the way. Iona has graciously sent us an excerpt to read before you buy. Enjoy!
Hugs,
Carol
Excerpt:
A flash of lightning lit up the living room with its brightness, followed by a clash of thunder that reverberated off the walls around her. The reflection danced eerily across the cove. She shielded her eyes, looking away for a few seconds. The air crackled with suspense. Jessie stared out the window, not wanting to miss…what? Motionless, she was spellbound, gazing into the heavens as the flashes of light and the darkness suddenly took on forms. With their swords drawn and gleaming shields in front of them, beings of bright light zipped in and out of the clouds. And then she saw him, a dark, terrifying dragon-like creature rising out of the dark waters and rushing toward the sky, warring with the creatures of light in the night sky. Suspended, he stood on his haunches, his sulfurous breath spewing fire, his red eyes glowing in the darkness. One large winged creature flew toward the dragon and thrust at him with his sword. The bright light streamed through the creature, pushing the dragon back into the darkness. Where did he go? She strained to see if she could find him. He retreated, circled around them, and streaked across the heavens from the other side, only to be pushed back again by another angel taking the first one’s place. Back and forth they flew until all the light raced toward the dragon, driving him into the blackness.
