    About this ebook

    A prequel novella in the Indigo Skies World...

    ---

    One arm caught around her middle and flung her back to the wall. Her eyes found mine mere seconds before I ground my hungry, angry lips against hers, more beast than being. She squeaked and wriggled, but the softness of her body slowed my heated plunder to something subtler.

    My hand curled around into her hair, tipping her head back ever so slightly so my fierce kiss could better explore the sweet bow of her lips. I pressed into her, hard heat and need seeking solace in her form.

    Her body began to subtly arch back, cursing my mind to blank thought with her gradual reciprocation. Like the sweetest of flowers, her lips bloomed, parting to my desperate taste.

    ---

    His thousand year old heart craves her, but is she the woman, yet, that she is set to become…?

    A prequel set in the Indigo Skies universe, Ruari is a vampire awaiting his fate when the key to his future and the curse of his past, Violet, crosses his path once more. Mortally linked to his sire, Ruari hasn't seen Violet for a thousand years and she has no knowledge of him or the knot in their destinies.

    Fuelled by desire, can he halt her self-destructive ways or will he give in to feelings he's harboured for a cruel and slow millennia?

    Rebecca Clare Smith

    Primarily a fantasy hound, Rebecca is an animal lover with a writing style that meanders between dystopian and urban. She lives with her pragmatic other half & their cats in the lovely UK county of Yorkshire (where tea drinking is expected & dunking biscuits is mandatory). A big fan of social media, chances are you’ll catch her online at some point during the day where she is more than happy to add readers & writers as friends. Her day job is friendlier than her plot lines might have you expect & her house is far less cluttered than her head, surprisingly. Occasionally she attempts to garden or clean, but is more often found with her face buried in new writing or the writing of others.
