Letter from the Author:

 Hi, Bookbugs!

"THE CAT KNOWS WHOSE LIPS HE LICKS. . ."

Dara Joy Well, of course I am talking about my latest hero, Gian Ren! The full-blooded Familiar from MINE TO TAKE, a November super-release from Leisure Books. What else can I tell you about him? He is untamable, of course. Sensual and magnetic. A uniquely beautiful creature who can make himself irresistible to women. With his stunning green and gold eyes, silken hair, and purring voice he just might coax the heroine, Jenise, into not realizing how dangerous he can be. How utterly catlike. If you thought REJAR was the sexiest stud you ever met between the pages of a book, wait until you get a load of Gian Ren, his exotic relative!

Called Guardian of the Mist by his people, the powerful Familiar finds himself captured and chained naked to a wall as his story begins. He has been captured for the heroine, Jenise, for whom it is expected he will perform—but when she takes him, who will actually be taken? Here's a sneak preview:


      "I want you to take me."
      The pupils of his dual-colored eyes flared. It was then that Jenise remembered he had been well primed for her. A small muscle worked in his firm jaw. He shook his chained wrists. "Very well. Release me."
      She laughed at his directive. The guards had warned her only to loosen his chains if necessary, but under no circumstances to release him.
      "Do I seem like a fool to you?"
      Gian studied her from beneath veiled lashes. She was an interesting conundrum in so many ways. And the riddle was becoming more complex by the moment. "Then I must refuse."
      "You cannot refuse. I can get what I want from you without releasing you," she bluntly stated.
      "You think so?" He leveled a meaningful look at her.
      Perhaps not. "Need I remind you that you are the captured one? You are mine to take."
      "Appearances can be deceiving," he intoned softly.

MINE TO TAKE is a sensual, action-packed story filled with intense emotion and energy. It is a love story which examines the nature of power. Although written to stand alone, this book is the third Matrix of Destiny book and follows chronologically after REJAR. Old friends show up, of course, and for all of you who have asked about Traed, the brooding, mysterious, and enigmatical Aviaran warrior has a very large part in this story. So settle in with a nice warm cup of mir, relax, put your feet up, and let me take you to another place—a place where a feline man growls as he makes love. . .   From my heart to yours!


Love,
