#SexySnippets... Where Mijo wonders...


Hi all,

It's #SexySnippets time, where a group of writers tease you with a mere seven sentences. You can find us all  here and if you fancy joining us, that's where you sign up.


On 31st July, Compromised, the prequel to my new Regency Series, Cursed Treasure is out. ( www.evernightpublishing.com ) and it's a free read.



"Pay the price. The heart of ye child to be liftin the curse. Dare ye risk it?"
 A time of terror, a time of hope?
When Mijo escaped from Madame Le Guillotine, and set sail to England, little did she know who her savior was, or what he would mean to her.
Theo was enchanted by his émigré, but knew what trouble they could be in. After dodging the French, revenue men and smugglers now they had their feelings to contend with.
Passion was all well and good, as long as they could weather the storm it unleashed, and solve the curse.

Marie-Josephine decided she would prefer to help sail the boat instead of being told to hold on and stay out of the way. Patience was not her best trait, plus, the attitude of the captain could almost make her wish herself back in her beloved France—almost.

Except there was the not inconsiderable presence of Madame Le 

Guillotine and the sure knowledge she'd be on her way to make her 

acquaintance if she ever set foot on French soil again. Her enemies

had made certain of that. She sighed as the boat pitched and she 

rolled over onto a coil of rope. The tarry strands stuck to her bare 

ankle—her stockings had shredded and been discarded days before

and scratched the skin. It was nothing compared to what others 

suffered.

Happy reading,

Love,  R x
