The King’s Favorite
by Tanya Anne Crosby
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Historical
Fantasy Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Fearing
her “gifts” will be used to defeat her sister Matilda, Elspeth escapes the
Black Mountain priory that has sheltered them since their father's death, only
to find herself indebted to, of all men, a Scotsman, whose loyalties are in
question...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT ONE:
“What’s
wrong, Malcom?”
Peering
back at the donjon, Malcom pulled Elspeth toward Merry Bells, rueful that he
would be putting his faithful horse back on the run. “I’ll explain when we’re
away.”
“Malcom!
You are frightening me!”
“I’ll
explain everything when we’re gone,” he said again.
She
tried to free her hand from his. “My dress!” she protested. “It was a gift.”
“There’s
a coffer full of rich gowns at home that belonged to my grandmother. You may do
with them what you will, and if they do not please you, I will buy you a
hundred more.”
Still,
she struggled to free herself. “But your silver, your hauberk, your blade?”
“I
have plenty of silver,” Malcom reassured, refusing to release her. “My armorer
will fashion me another. And it was an old dirk; I’ll get myself another.”
“It
was not an old dirk,” she argued. “Tis shiny and new and bears the sigil of
your house!”
“Our
house,” he reminded her. “What is mine is also yours.”
“Wait!”
She gasped, sounding alarmed. “My Llanthony tunic, Malcom! We cannot leave it
here, or he’ll know.”
They
reached Merry Bells and even before he lifted her up to put her on the horse,
he untied Merry Bells from the post. Then he grasped Elspeth about the waist
and set her atop his saddle, praying Merry Bells was up to the challenge.
“’Tis
like he already knows,” he told her. “You must trust me,” he demanded. “As I
trusted you.”
