Violence: Yes Drinking: Yes Sex Scenes: Steamy ================= EXCERPT: Braeden tore away leaving me feeling cold, like the only leaf on a barren tree, a leaf left to tremble alone in the wind. He raked a hand through his hair while he paced the floor. He was tortured and scared, a man barely hanging on by a thread. Seconds dragged until he said thickly, “I don’t understand any of this.” “Because it makes no sense, right?” I snatched my barrette up with trembling hands and started fussing with my hair. “I’ve only known you a little over a month, yet it feels like a million years. And now I’m thinking—” “Don’t.” He stalked back over to me and grabbed my hands. “No more talking. No more thinking.” His voice was rough and desperate. “Because if I allow myself to ponder this insanity—to try and understand it…I swear, I’ll go mad.” He inhaled deeply and pressed his forehead to mine. “I knew you were trouble the moment I saw you in that window. God help me.” The Darkest Frost, Vol. 2 will be available in the fall 2015. EARLY REVIEWS: “Author Tanya Holmes…needs to write paranormal more often!
