He can’t outrun himself…

Legionnaire Jamie Armstrong lives in the shadows. A medic haunted by his mistakes, he knows better than to hope for redemption. But his latest mission brings a threat he doesn’t see coming—an attraction as irresistible as it is dangerous. Hacker Samira Desta is a woman he swore to forget, but as a key witness to a deadly conspiracy, Samira is his to protect.

But the woman he rescues might be the one who saves him

After a year in hiding, Samira’s worst fears come true when her cover is blown and the unlikeliest of allies comes to her aid—the secretive Scot with whom she shared one unforgettable night. Hunted by lethal forces and losing the battle against their desire, Jamie and Samira make a desperate play to take the fight to their enemy—but those at greatest risk of ruin may be themselves…



Coming May 29th from Harlequin Books

Teaser...

"...It's not password-protected, then?"
"Looks like a swipe pattern," she said, pulling off a glove.  "Which is only effective if you wipe the screen after each use."  She flicked a fingertip in a Z shape and the screen lip up.  "You see?"
On, he did see.  Nothing sexier than a smart brain.  And the longer she used it for techie stuff, the less time for awkward after-the-morning-after conversations.  With luck, they'd get through the next few hours with no chance to even reference their...liaison.  Just so long as he didn't go kissing her again. (Page 92-93 of the ARC)

Awkward much?  Hehe.




Queen Takes King (Their Vampire Queen, #2)How many Blood will come to the vampire queen's call... and will they be able to protect her from the king?

For the first time in her adult life, Shara has plenty of money thanks to the Isador legacy--and she's not alone. Daire and Rik are devoted lovers, but they know other Blood are coming. Blood who may challenge Rik for the coveted alpha spot at her back.

As her power grows, so does her hunger. But without fangs, she fears she'll never be the queen her Blood expect. More Blood means power struggles and complications, and she has no idea how to keep everyone happy. Worse, her dreams are quickly becoming something to fear.

Moving to establish her permanent nest, she can't stop dreaming of the king. A massive monster. Chained in darkness. Lost to madness. He roars with fury in her dreams, demanding his release.

But is he the key to unraveling her own mysterious past--or the most dangerous threat of all?


Teaser...


"I had an accident with the knife." 
"On your neck?" I tried to keep my tone light and teasing, but his blood called me. My hands started to tremble, my pulse jumping frantically, like I was an addict going through the shakes.

"Guillaume helped."

I spent my Monday reading the first book in this series, Queen Takes Knights, and enjoyed the premise a whole lot -- so much that I had to dive right into this one. So far, I'm a fan of this one too. Maybe even more than book 1? Too soon to tell but it's great so far!!


Those are our teasers for this week! What do you think? Do you have a teaser to share? Leave us a comment and link us up!
