Rainbow Snippet January 19-20

1/19/2019

8 Comments

 
It's weekend, and time for more Rainbow Snippets. The Rainbow Snippets group on Facebook asks its members to share six sentence snippets from their work each weekend. Check out the group's Facebook page to read all the snippets and add lots of great books to your TBR. You'll find all sorts of books with the common thread that the main character identifies as LGBTQ+.

The Prince's Consort is on sale at Dreamspinner, so I thought I'd share a snippet from it with you today. The Prince's Consort was my first published book, a prince/commoner fantasy romance.
Picture





​The hour was late when their guests finally left. Amory was tired
but not sleepy, his body humming with happiness and anticipation. He settled in what had become their usual place in the sitting room. Philip handed him another glass of wine and sat close beside him. Amory sipped the wine, a crisp white that night, and watched the play of firelight over Philip’s face and glossy dark hair. So beautiful. He gave in to overwhelming temptation and stroked his fingers through all that silky hair. Philip’s eyes closed, and he made a sound close to a purr.

​
Philip always did that, and Amory was secretly delighted by it. Philip nuzzled into his hand and pressed a kiss to his palm before leaning forward to press another to his lips. 


If you'd like to know more about The Prince's Consort, you can find it here. The ebook is 35% off at Dreamspinner right now, and paperbacks of all my Dreamspinner titles are 30% off. Thanks for reading!
