Hump Day Hook #HDH Giveaway! – Love Redeems (A Redcliffe Novel)


Hello and welcome to the Hump Day Hook. This week we are feeling generous, perhaps with the true beginning of summer as we head into the beautiful month of May. Anyway, our Hump Day Hook bloggers are offering giveaways today! For my part I am offering a signed paperback copy of my newly released third book in the series, Love Redeems (A Redcliffe Novel). Here is an excerpt, to give you a taster of what to expect from my adult paranormal romance series:


      Jack was silent beside me, concentrating on the road ahead.  His energy was still strong and the atmosphere inside the car was cool and angry.  He was angry with me; I knew that.  He was also confused about my powers and he was wondering just how strong and dangerous I would prove to be.  Jack couldn’t help but worry that I had hidden my true abilities from him and Danny in order to carry out some elaborate plan to assassinate them.  He hadn’t said as much, but I knew the truth.  My mother, Lillian, had visited me during the day, speaking inside my mind.  She had told me what I needed to know.  The Mason brothers lived in a state of perpetual alert for enemies.  They trusted very few people, and now I was teetering between the list of people they trusted, and people they were wary of.  Sighing again, I roused myself and shook my head, breathing slowly in and out to try and ease the pressure I felt in my chest. 


 Now for the competition rules. All I ask is for you to comment on this post and tell me why it is that Jessica (our heroine) might prove to be a threat to the safety of the Mason brothers. You can check out the details about the Redcliffe novels on the pages at the top of my blog, or on their dedicated website. You can also read the first book, Love Hurts (A Redcliffe Novel) free on Wattpad for a limited time only. Tell me why Jessica is dangerous, and I will award a free signed copy of Love Redeems (A Redcliffe Novel) to the winner. If there are several correct answers, I will choose one at random. Good luck!

We write about romance, love, science fiction, fantasy, erotica and everything in-between, so you are sure to find something that delights the senses. You can also find us on Facebook. Happy Humping!

  2. I'm not sure if the werewolf bite made her a witch, or not, but her being a witch could cause some problems.

    1. You are partially correct Jennifer. The Mason brothers do not trust witches!

  4. Nice hook! I could feel the tension. You can't really blame him for being angry with her. Werewolves are generally wary of everyone. It's incredibly difficult to win their trust if you're not one of them, and if you lose it, it's even harder to win it again. So good luck to you, Jessica.

    As for why she might be a threat...I haven't read the books but I do know that she is a witch. And if I remember correctly, she has a feline familiar - jaguar, maybe. I imagine that her feline familiar in combination with her powers would be threatening.

    1. Thanks Jade and well remembered! Yes, Jessica's animal familiar is causing some trouble with the werewolves. In this excerpt she is actually with the vampire, but since Jack and Danny are identical twins it is easy to get them confused!

  5. I think he mostly feels threatened because she hasn't told him all of the truth about herself. She's going to have to work on gaining his trust.

    1. She is indeed, Dianne, but she struggles with his hypocrisy in this instance. He kept so many secrets from her in the beginning, and now he is angry because she is displaying power that could be greater than his own...

  6. Ooh, tense. Love it, well done.

  8. I would say they fear her witchy powers, which seem to be more erratic and yet hold more possibilities than their own powers. BUT they are so hot, and she'd never hurt them-- would she?? Would she?
