TRACE'S TROUBLE by Lexi Post is FREE for a limited time!

Trace's Trouble (Last Chance: Book 2) is FREE for a limited time!

Cowboy Trace Williams thought he had trouble when his wife served him with divorce papers, forcing him to move to his cousin’s horse rescue ranch. But that was nothing compared to handling the female squatter he’s supposed to evict from Last Chance Ranch. Though she’s a crack shot and has no use for politeness or subtlety, her ability to communicate with animals has him seeking her out on behalf of the ranch…and himself.

Whisper Adams lives off the grid. She cares for her invalid uncle and watches over the wildlife that finds her. The animals are more trustworthy than the people she’s encountered. So when a hard-bodied, easy going cowboy arrives at her trailer and causes her heart to race, she’s anxious for him to leave, until he asks for her help at the ranch.

Since they end up together more often than she prefers, Whisper doesn’t deny her attraction to Trace, who introduces her to new experiences, from riding horses to an erotic night in bed. But mixing with people, any people, opens her to new threats. This relationship might cost Trace his heart, but it could very well cost Whisper her life.

Read The Sand Prince by Kim Alexander #Fantasy #Adventure #Romantasy

  

The Sand Prince

(The Demon Door Book 1)

Synopsis

Two worlds.
Bound by magic.
Divided by a Door.
On the barren, war-ravaged demon world of Eriis, the fierce queen Hellne fights to keep her people alive and her son Rhuun's heritage a secret. On the green and gentle human world of Mistra, demons have faded into myth. Only a handful of old men and fanatical children still guard The Door between the worlds.
Different and shunned by his demon kin, Rhuun finds refuge in a book that tells of a human world of water and wonder. Forced by his mother's enemies to flee Eriis, he finds himself trapped on the other side of The Door in the very place he has read and dreamed about—Mistra.
Chained to the deadly whims of a child who guards The Door, Rhuun must balance serving and surviving, even at the risk of exposing his true identity. Riskiest of all is his task of kidnapping an infuriating young woman who is about to find out that the demons of Eriis are much, much more than just an old bedtime story.

What are the other books in the series?

The Heron Prince

The Demon Door can be opened...but the price is deadly.

Prince Rhuun has found acceptance among the humans on Mistra, something he could never have in the demon realm of Eriis, not even as heir to its throne. What's more, he has even found love with the prickly, passionate heiress, Lelet va'Everly.

The idyll can't last. The prince has enemies who are after more than his throne. They are out for his blood…which holds the key to unsealing The Door between the two worlds, and the demons want in. When Rhuun is lured into a trap on Eriis, Lelet has no choice but to turn to a motley group of exiles, children, and madmen to help save him.

Lelet soon discovers that, like all things, rescuing the prince comes with a price. The secrets in Rhuun's blood may be worth killing for, but are they worth dying for?

The Glass Girl

Love opens all doors…but betrayal locks them forever.


Newly blessed (or cursed) with wings and fire, Prince Rhuun of the demon realm of Eriis sees hope for his life in the human world of Mistra with his fierce human lover, Lelet va'Everley. She literally went to hell and back to save him, and she's not about to let anything—or anyone—ruin their perfect future.


All too soon, the claims of family, duty, and justice force Rhuun and Lelet to confront new griefs and old mistakes as they attempt to restore balance to the throne of Eriis. But, with every jealous rumor and each vengeful whisper, friends turn, family schemes, and forgotten enemies creep from the shadows.


Treachery in Eriis and betrayal in Mistra jeopardize what Rhuun and Lelet have fought so hard to build, threatening to tear apart the two lovers, their families, and even their worlds.

The River King

SOMETIMES LOVE DOESN’T CHANGE THE WORLD. SOMETIMES IT CHANGES ALL OF THEM.

Rhuun, the half-human and wholly reluctant prince of the demons has finally reunited with his fiery Lelet. It’s too bad they must hide behind a facade of icy indifference to fool those who are determined to keep demons and humans apart...by any means necessary.

There is more at stake than bringing the miracle of rain back to Eriis. It's not just sand and lost royals poised to come through the newly-opened Door. Something ancient is hungry, and fat, complacent Mistra won't stand a chance. Even worse, whispers and shadows speak of blood magic that could destroy not just The Door, but all Doors—forever—barring the way home for lovers and enemies alike.

Will the love Rhuun and Lelet have moved worlds to share be the very thing they must sacrifice to save their worlds?

Free Regency Recipe: Apricot Ice Cream

A Regency Romance for Your Tastebuds (with modern freezer privileges) 

You may not realise how often Regency heroines flirt over frozen treats, but I do. You see, I’m ice cream’s most devoted admirer - and apparently, so are many of Jane Austen’s most refined characters. Ice cream, or “ices” as they called them before Haagen met Dazs, only sashayed into English society around 1718.

By the time Darcy was brooding in drawing rooms, it was still the culinary equivalent of a handsome stranger; mysterious, expensive, and absolutely swoon-worthy. Flavours, however, were... daring. Rye ice cream, for example, is the sort of experience best left to history. Fruit ices, however, became the ultimate luxury in Austen’s time, not only because of the delicate flavours, but because summer - when fruit was available - was also when everything melted faster than Marianne Dashwood’s heart. 

Since I like to imagine I’m the sort of person who could afford an ice house in 1813, here’s a delightful recipe from Hannah Glasse’s 1755 Art of Cookery Made Plain. They used moulds back then for serving, because nothing says “Regency elegance” like your dessert arriving in the shape of a pinecone or a miniature temple. 

Need more inspiration? There you go...

Ingredients: 

• 12 ripe apricots (romantically blushing) 
• 170g / 6 oz / ¾ cup powdered sugar 
• 470ml / 16 fl oz / 2 cups cream (luxuriously scalded) 

Regency Method (involving mortar, sweat, and social status): 

1. Boil your apricots like they just insulted your bonnet. 
2. Skin, pit, and pulverise them with a mortar, ideally while making eye contact with a footman. Add sugar and cream (the double refined kind - because obviously). 
3. Sieve, pour into a tin, and play Regency ice tetris.
4. Surround with salted ice in a tub. 
5. Stir occasionally, with gentle disdain. 
6. When thickened, scoop into a decorative mould and repeat the ice bath ritual. 
7. Let it chill for four hours while you embroider or fend off suitors. 
8. When ready, dip the mould in spring water (not tap, darling) and unmould with grace. 

Modern Method (for those lacking a scullery maid): 

1. Blend apricots, sugar, and cream like a sensible modern human. 
2. Freeze in a lidded dish. 
3. Stir every so often until it firms up like a hero’s jawline. 
4. Spoon into moulds, or eat it straight from the dish while bingeing Austen adaptations. 

Serves: 6-8 refined guests - or 1 shamelessly indulgent author (because some romances, like apricot ice cream, are meant to be frozen… and then devoured).

Excerpt:

“I always said I wouldn’t have sex without marriage,” she whispered.
He raised his eyebrows so high they almost touched his hairline. “You’re a virgin?”

She nodded.

“Holy shit,” he said. The shock in his voice was evident. “That’s like discovering unicorns are real.”

His analogy was so off the wall that she chuckled. Instantly, the tension she’d held in her shoulders released.

“How old are you, Cherry?”

“I’m twenty-four. Why?”

“Because by now you’ve outdone your mom by eight years.”

She blinked, waiting for him to continue.

“Don’t you see?” he asked, continuing. “You are nothing like her. I mean, I never met the woman, but I can see the goodness in you. The eyes reflect the soul, darlin’. And yours show pure light and love.”

The words shifted the foundation of her world, and the pieces of her past lay in broken shards around her. She’d tried hard to be a good person, to make her grandfather proud of her, and to realize that he hadn’t made a mistake in giving her and Church a home.

“Cherry?”

She looked up at Heart. He pushed her bangs off her forehead. The same delicious shivers that she’d felt before when he’d touched her was still there. Would it be that terrible to give into the desire she felt? Or would giving in be the first step down a slippery slope?

Heart leaned in, breathed in her scent. Having his face so close to her neck made her wet. Excited. His fingers trailed down her neck, over her shoulder, down her arm. He lightly caressed the soft skin on her hand.

“Are you seducing me?” she asked nervously.

A wicked little grin lifted the corners of his mouth. He kissed the shell of her ear.

“Trust me,” he whispered.

Who am I?

Beth D. Carter grew up in Missouri and began writing at a very young age after being influenced by her mother's very naughty romance novels.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I like writing about the very ordinary girl thrust into extraordinary circumstances, so my heroines will probably never be lawyers, doctors, or corporate high rollers. I try to write characters who aren't cookie-cutter and push myself to write complicated situations that I have no idea how to resolve, forcing me to think outside the box. Music inspires me and each story has its own signature song.

I am a full-time writer and stay-at-home mom which means I watch a lot of animated movies. Over and over again. I hate washing dishes but I love cooking. I hate washing clothes but I love wearing them. Writing my bio is difficult because I never know what to say so I hope you like this one. My favorite color is red but I look best in black (it's slimming). I hate people who don't pick up their dog's crap in public places, people who don't use turn signals, and I really hate people who are rude and condescending. I especially hate discrimination in all and every form. And although I love holding a book in my hand, I absolutely adore my e-reader, whom I've named Ruby. So many books at the touch of a button! I love to hear from readers so I've made it really easy to find me on Facebook or Twitter or email me at: beth@bethdcarter.com.
