Please
give a warm welcome to Lucy from
Borderland Bride by Samantha Holt today as we sit down and
see what makes him/her tick.
Q:
So tell us about yourself. What got you in the crosshairs for your author?
Oh,
quite a few things! A forgotten marriage contract, my dislike of a certain lord
and my refusal to marry are probably the main things!
Q:
What was it that drew you to your mate?
Well,
he is very handsome…but I wanted naught to do with him at first. Somehow, he
charmed me, though I still do not understand quite how.
Q:
A little naughty fun, where was the wildest place you seduced your partner(s)?
It
is not really wild but our first time was in the Great Hall. It was very
romantic. Suffice to say we have had some fun through the entire castle since
marrying but Dominic was determined that we should not make love again until we
were married. He can be very honourable when he wants to be.
Q:
Boxers, briefs or Commando on a man?
Forgive
me, I am not sure what any of those are.
Q: If your partner wants to seduce you, what's one sure fire trick he/she can play?
Q: If your partner wants to seduce you, what's one sure fire trick he/she can play?
Dominic
has a way of looking at me that turns my bones to jelly. He gets a hungry look
in his eyes and I know I am in trouble.
Q:
What is the one place on your partner's body that you know will drive them
wild-in and out of bed?
His
neck and ears. When I kiss or nibble them he shudders. I love being able to
torture him like that though I know I will pay for it later if I do it in
public!
Q:
What was one of the most embarrassing thing your author did to you in
Borderland Beauty?
I
am clumsy by nature, so Ms. Holt enjoyed showing me up in front of Dominic.
Thankfully he found my little trips and stumbles very endearing. I also fell
over when ice-skating, that was certainly an embarrassing moment.
Thank
you Lucy for joining us on 'Meet
the Character' day here at Dawn’s Reading Nook Blog. Please find Borderland

Excerpt
“You care
a great deal about the ‘other women’. ‘Tis odd when you profess to care little
about my affairs.”
“I care
not what you do. You are a free man and may lie with whomever you choose.”
His lips
slanted into a wry smile. “And yet the mere mention of other women sparks anger
in your eyes. I told you before, your eyes give you away. ‘Tis more than
indignation that ignites the fire in your eyes, ‘tis jealousy.”
“Jealousy?”
she spluttered. “Why should I be jealous?”
As he
leaned closer, Lucy edged away, gasping with surprise as her back hit the cold
stone wall. With nowhere to escape, Dominic moved closer still, bringing his
mouth to her ear. His cheek brushed hers and she shuddered as his breath swept
over her.
She
supposed she could probably shove him away but her hands would not cooperate
and instead clung to the stone, as if the rock could somehow provide her with
the strength needed to deny him.
So easy. It would
be so easy just to turn her head and kiss him. It would take only the smallest
of movement. His lips grazed her exposed neck, so briefly that she would not
have been sure it happened were it not for the scalding imprint his mouth left.
“You are
jealous because you wish to be one of those ladies,” he breathed into her ear.
She
gulped and shook her head but any words of protest died on her lips as his hand
came up to the other side of her neck and curled domineeringly around it.
He kissed
her ear. “But ‘twill not happen.” He kissed again as she frowned. “For you
would not be just one of those ladies.” His lips sealed around her lobe,
nipping briefly at it and extracting a choked cry from her. “You would be the only lady.”
Blurb
Lord Dominic is in need
of a wife. With the reivers, the wild and dangerous criminals that haunt the
borderlands, breathing down his neck and his brother now married, he needs a
strong woman by his side. So when he finds out about an old marriage contract between
him and his neighbour’s daughter, he vows to give the mysterious woman a
chance. Upon meeting the beautiful, feisty maiden, he vows to make her his
wife.
Lucy Montgomery wants
nothing to do with the arrogant lord. She doesn’t understand his interest in
her. Surely a man like Dominic could never fall for a woman like her. Hurt by
the past, she refuses to believe that she is anything more than a game to him.
If only she didn’t find him quite so charming.
Can Dominic persuade
Lucy that she is more than just another woman to him? And with the reivers
growing bolder, are there worse dangers than Lucy saying ‘Nay’?
