From May 5th to May 18th I’ll
be on a blog tour promoting the third book of my Spirit Trilogy, Spirit
of the Sky. At each stop I’ll give away a $5 Amazon gift certificate to a lucky
commenter. Each stop will have a picture of an eagle in the post. Follow the
tour and send me the number of different pictures you saw while following the
tour. If there is more than one correct entry I’ll draw a winner on May 21st to receive a $25 gift certificate to either
Barnes and Nobles or Amazon, a handmade custom ereader cover, and chocolate.
Blurb for Spirit of the Sky
To
save her from oppression, he must save her whole tribe. To give her his heart,
he must desert his career…
When
the US Army forces the Nimiipuu from their land, Sa-qan, the eagle spirit
entrusted with watching over her tribe, steps in to save her mortal niece.
Challenging the restrictions of the spirit world, Sa-qan assumes human form and
finds an unexpected ally in a handsome cavalry officer.
Certain
she is a captive, Lt. Wade Watts, a Civil War veteran, tries to help the blonde
woman he finds sheltering a Nez Perce child. While her intelligent eyes reveal
she understands his language, she refuses his help. But when Wade is wounded,
it is the beautiful Sa-qan who tends him. Wade wishes to stop the killing—Sa-qan
will do anything to save her people.
Can
their differences save her tribe? Or will their love spell the end of the
Nimiipuu?
Excerpt
She
smiled and his heart leapt into his throat. He thought her beautiful from the
first moment he saw her standing in the river fiercely protecting the child,
but watching her tense face relax and smile, he was smitten. A light and
pleasing calm washed over him for the first time in a very long time. He could
only bask in the moment briefly. They
were enemies.
“I am from
the sky, and I watch over the Nimiipuu.” She nodded her head and flashed him
with yet another smile. “You may call me Angel.”
“Only if you call me Wade.”
She
nodded. “Let me check your wounds. You have moved around.”
“Why are
you taking such good care of me when your warriors left me for dead?”
Her
sunshine gaze peered straight into his eyes. “You saved my niece at the village
and the wounded from the Bannock scout. You do not have the thirst to kill like
the other soldiers.” She bowed her head and removed the blood encrusted bandage
from his shoulder. “The Nimiipuu need you.”
Her touch
warmed his body, tingling the areas around his wounds. He glanced at her small,
delicate hands hovering over his injuries. He shut his eyes, and then opened
them. Her hands shimmered as if in a fog. His pain subsided, in fact, his body
felt well rested.
A soft
lyrical chant rose from her lips as she continued to hover her hands over his
wounds. Her eyes remained closed, her light lashes resting on her sun-kissed
cheeks. He’d never seen a woman as beautiful as this. He had to learn her true
origins and return her to her family.
