KNIGHT OF RAPTURE
by Ruth A. Casie
Carina Press
SUMMARY: He crossed the centuries to find her…For months Lord Arik has been
trying to find the right combination of runes to create the precise spell to
rescue his wife, Rebeka, but the druid knight will soon discover that reaching
her four hundred years in the future is only the beginning of his quest. He
arrives in the 21st century to find her memory of him erased, his legacy on the
brink of destruction, and traces of dark magick at every turn.
A threat has followed…Bran, the dark
druid, is more determined than ever to get his revenge. His evil has spread
across the centuries. Arik will lose all. Time is his weapon, and he’s made
sure his plan leaves no one dear to Arik, in past or present, safe from the
destruction. But their enemy has
overlooked the strongest magick of all…
Professor Rebeka Tyler is dealing with more than just a faulty memory.
Ownership of Fayne Manor, her home, has been called into question. Convenient
accidents begin happening putting those she cares for in the line of fire. And
then there’s the unexpected arrival of a strange man dressed like he belonged
in a medieval fair—a man who somehow is always around when needed, and always
on her mind. She doesn’t know who to trust. But one thing is certain. Her
family line and manor have survived for over eleven centuries. She won’t let
them fall, not on her watch… in any century.
Visions of his warm bed
and even warmer wife lit Lord Arik’s face. A deep rich chuckle rumbled in his
chest at the vivid images of how he’d wake Rebeka. Who would have thought the
great druid Grand Master was a besotted bridegroom? The summer had been warm
and all the sweeter with Rebeka by his side. He stood on the open terrace at
the back of the manor, surveyed his domain and swelled with pride. Fayne Manor
was a thriving estate that had been the family home for eleven centuries and it
would stand for eleven more.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Ruth
A. Casie is happiest when telling stories either chatting in a group or writing
them down. Here’s what she had to say: “I
love to put my hero and heroine in tough situations and dare them to work it
out—together, always together. They haven’t disappointed me. Oh, they complain but in the end their love
and relationships are stronger than ever.
While I keep tormenting my druid knight, I’m outlining a new series. The
working title is the River of Time. It’s about an elite technology security
officer, whose job is to eliminate time travelers, but falls in love with a
time traveling art appraiser and has to choose between his duty and his one
chance for a timeless love. I love this story line because it lets me stretch
my contemporary voice while working in historic time periods. I think this is
the best of both worlds. For most of you, my contemporary side will be a surprise.” Visit Ruth at www.RuthACasie.com and www.RuthACasie.blogspot.com.
