Whisper of a
Witch
by Suza Kates
BLURB:
Biologist
Shauni Miller, a beautiful as she is compassionate, harbors a secret that could
alter her life forever. If she chooses to share it. Dr. Michael Black helps
Shauni in her time of need, but sees more in the raven-haired temptress than
she ever meant to reveal. He knows she’s hiding something, but then, so is he.
Both Shauni and Michael have a role to play and decisions to make as a
centuries-old prophecy has yet to be fulfilled. Only the fates know if they are
meant to be together. Or if one of them has to die.

EXCERPT:
“Oh, no you don’t,” she
said with a shake of her finger. “I’m not being derailed again.”
“What?” His gaze
lingered on her shoulders and the curve of her neck. He wasn’t halfway finished
with her, yet. “Yeah. You were going to tell me something.”
“Now you’re catching on.
And you were going to tell me how you found me out in those woods.” She looked
at the large, golden lump of dog snoring in the foyer. “And don’t tell me it
was all him.”
Michael felt his
previous mellow aura zipping up tight. She’d relaxed him to the point of
pre-catatonia then after one look at her, he’d been aroused again and gunning
for round two.
Now he felt neither
level of satisfaction. He was back to agonizing over how she would react to his
dirty little secret. Hell, she might consider it a breach of privacy, the way
he perceived what people were feeling, especially his ability to tune in to her
so well. It was like he had a direct line to channel Shauni. All day. All
night.
So
he did what any fearless man would do. “You go first.”

ABOUT SUZA KATES:

| Suza Kates |
Suza Kates can’t remember a time when she didn’t
love books, but two particular memories stay with her. “As a young girl I
picked up Little Women, read it straight through, and promptly turned to
page one to start all over again. The next book I did that with was Mind
Hunter by John Douglas, tales about profiling serial killers.”
Thus a twisted romantic was born.
Throughout her teenage and young adult years,
she read everything from horror to historical romance yet never imagined
writing anything of her own.
It was during a long, cold winter in a tiny
apartment in Germany that Suza picked up a pen and notebook to entertain
herself. “The apartment was so tiny, my bed also served as my living room
couch. Plus, I shared it with three cats.”
Missing the warmth, the hospitality, and the
food of the South, she wrote about those things with a huge dose of family
thrown in. She says she still has a sweet spot in her heart for her first book,
Southern Moon, but to date, she hasn’t revisited it for submission to
her publisher.
Suza followed her heart to Savannah, Georgia,
and it was the gorgeous city with its moss-covered oaks and secrets of history
that inspired her to consider paranormal romance. “I had an idea about sisters
and magic, so I went to work on the first book of The Savannah Coven Series, Whisper of a Witch. The series is
still going strong, and I am grateful every day that I took a chance on
paranormal romance, a genre I wasn’t very familiar with and had never actually
read before writing it.”
Suza has since joined RWA and can’t say enough
about this organization. “The education and support are unparalleled. I am so
grateful to all of my fellow writers who have offered advice.”
Suza still resides in Savannah and is currently
working on her next book. She considers it a perfect day when she can sit at
the keyboard with coffee in her cup and one of her cats purring in her
lap.
