In celebration of Spring, C.H. is
giving away two (2) ARCs
of her latest release, THE THREE
VICES: PATIENCE. Book one in her Regency-Era Historical
Trilogy. Here's a snippet from the Prologue of PATIENCE:
His eyes seemed to frost over as their gazes held.
Alasdair straightened to his full commanding height, his icy
visage silently challenging her. Did he truly expect her to
cause a scene?
He laid a protective hand atop the tiny gloved one
resting upon his forearm and turned his back on her. No
verbal assault, no physical blow, could have had a more
devastating effect than to receive the cut direct from Lord
Alasdair Makepeace.
The final arrow—resignation—buried itself so
deeply alongside the others that Patience glanced down,
expecting to find her mint green gown drenched crimson with
her own blood.
There was none. Her pain was as invisible as she had
become the moment Alasdair had moved away from her.
Her heart shattered, her belief in love destroyed, Lady
Patience gathered the remnants of her tattered pride and
walked away from the man responsible for destroying her
dreams.
