Welcome to day 3 of the Paws With a Cause Blogger's Event! Let's welcome Kim Carmichael, who will give away three gift packs from her new release The Promise.
I Finally Got A Girl!
Until the
day Chloe rescued me, I was the only girl in a house full of males. It was on that day that I experienced the
phenomenon known as love at first sight.
I spied the little fluff ball and the moment her little black eyes met
mine, I knew we were meant to be. True
to my form, before I even brought my one pound bundle into the house, she was
already outfitted in a hot pink and black collar, a bow and a matching
bed.
We wrestled with names and finally
decided on Chloe, which we thought was so creative until we realized that just
about every other dog on the planet is named Chloe.
Much to my delight my little
maltipoo was small enough to fit into my Louis Vuitton purse. In fear that one of the huge males of my home
would step on her or lose her, I spend the first month with Chloe taking her to
work with me with her tiny little head poking out of my bag. Needless to say she was an instant sensation.
Though I have had pets all my life,
I have a special relationship with Chloe.
She is a true lap dog, and the moment I get home she settles down on me. She's with me while I write at night and do
my work, and she sleeps on my pillow with me.
I relish in the way she searches me out, and is the first one to always
greet me with a lick and excitement, and a game a fetch with her favorite toy.
I never ever tell her she's not a
human as she wouldn't stand for it. She
is just the little furry girl I was blessed with!
Kim Carmichael's newest release is
The Promise:
|
Demon Dolan Ciar exists on three simple words:
desire, denial, and destruction. Every four years, he is allowed one night of
earthly passion to punish a deserving female. By the time he is finished, his
victims are left as willing receptacles for demons yet to come.
Since she was four, a demon has
been the only constant in Leora Desmond's life. He taught her how to seize
control, to never give up, and to take whatever she wanted. At twenty-four,
her self-centered existence is focused on one thing. She wants Dolan, and she
won't be dissuaded.
A mistake brought Dolan to
Leora. A promise bound him to her. Returning once again to ask for his
freedom, he is faced with Leora demanding to be his next conquest. The
ultimate retribution would be to take from her the ultimate symbol of her
selfishness.
Now, Dolan must decide if he
can doom her to life in living hell or face his own set of unearthly
consequences, while Leora must choose between her pleasure and her heart.
The Promise blurs the line between
good and evil, desire and love, and promises and commitment.

He tilted his head. "You look
older."
She forced herself to blink and to
remember her goal. "Then I assume I am at last old enough to be a fit
for a demon." She stepped forward, stopping less than a foot away from
him. The back of her throat dried out, and she swallowed.
He put his hand to his chin, his gaze
taking her in. "This old song and dance. When will you use the brains
you have and leave it alone?"
His words hit her, but rather than
retreating, she moved closer. The energy, the tingle, the wafts of spice
encompassed her and lured her toward him. "Never."
"You were smart last time. Why
don't you release me so I can do what I came here for." He glanced down
at her and then shifted his focus beyond her. "I have needs as
well."
"Tonight I am the one you came
here for." The mention of his last visit stung, but she willed herself
to keep going. She ran her fingers up the buttons of his shirt. "You
always told me to take control."
He shook his head. "A lesson you
learned well."
She reached up and clenched his collar
in her fist. "I let you go last time, but tonight I am the one you
need."
He grabbed her wrist. "I spared
you before. Never forget that."
She stared right into his eyes. No
weakness was allowed tonight. "It's me, Dolan. Me, or you can be
celibate until the decade I do you the favor of dying. I don't care about
your pain." She tensed, preparing herself for his retaliation.
"I thought I taught you better
than to make demands of a demon." He pressed his palm to the side of her
face.
Heat radiated through her body, sending
a warning to every one of her nerve endings. "A demon who comforts a
child is a failure of a demon in my book."
His jaw tightened. "That was a
mistake. An oversight."
