Giveaway to celebrate A Taste Of Copper by Elin Gregory

Taste of copper FB Elin Gregory – A Taste Of Copper

Cover Art by: Meredith Russell

Blurb

Your master has the field for today, but his name, whatever it might be, is without honour.

Olivier the squire worships the Black Knight and takes a fierce joy in his prowess as he defends a bridge against all comers. Olivier only wishes that his master loved him as much in return instead of treating him as a servant and occasional plaything.

Then word comes that the King desires to cross the bridge. With an army approaching, a bright eyed archer enticing him to desert and the first cracks beginning to show in the Black Knight’s gruff demeanour, Olivier is left wondering if his honour is worth more than a chance for happiness.

Excerpt

Olivierโ€™s heart thumped fast as he unarmed Maheris. Blood was still dripping, the sharp scent of it mingling with the stench of iron and old sweat from the arming doublet. He set the pieces of armour aside to clean later and eased the arming doublet over Maherisโ€™s head. The left arm of it weighed heavy with blood, and the shirt beneath was sodden. Olivier bit his lip as he eased the clotted fabric away and saw the bright trickle that followed.

โ€œThat will do,โ€ Maheris said once he was bare to the waist. His heavy shoulders and chest gleamed with sweat, his skin goosefleshing in the chill air, but he waved Olivier away when he brought Maheris a towel. โ€œTime for that when the wound is sealed,โ€ he said as he took a seat. โ€œYou know what to do.โ€

The wound in his bicep gaped like a hot, wet mouth.

Elin Gregory lives in South Wales and works in a museum in a castle built on the edge of a Roman fort! She reckons thatโ€™s a pretty cool job. It certainly provides more than enough inspiration for her writing.

โ€œThe button from a military jacket found in an orchard, a 16th century Venetian coin found between the cobbles of a Welsh street, a carnelian from a Roman signet ring โ€“ one canโ€™t handle them without wondering who lost them, how much they regretted it and what kind of disaster was sparked off by the loss.โ€

Although Elin usually writes on historical subjects, she has also written contemporary and historical paranormals, science fiction, crime and a Western, none of which have, as yet, been published. She likes her heroes hard as nails but capable of tenderness when circumstances allow.

Stepping in to protect my younger brother was a no-brainer. Now I have to pay the consequences and repair my tarnished reputation. That means facing my demons and spending ten days at sea on a cruise ship. At least itโ€™s for a good cause.

๐˜’๐˜บ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ ๐˜‰๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ฏ

Thanks to my interfering family, Iโ€™m thrust into a world of extravagance and dazzling spectacle. Iโ€™d much rather be at home in the vineyard. That is, until I find an undeniable connection with a gorgeous, brooding passenger. Imagine my surprise when I find out heโ€™s an award-winning performer. Why on earth would he want to spend time with me?

Itโ€™s only a cruise, a bit of fun, not a life commitment, and as my brother said --weโ€™re not here for a long time, weโ€™re here for a good timeโ€”so Iโ€™m determined to enjoy the limited time we have. I just wish my heart got the message.

๐˜š๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ-๐˜’๐˜ช๐˜ด๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ is a sweet and sexy story where two worlds collide in an opposites attract, celebrity/ordinary guy, rockstar romance set amongst the fun and chaos of a Pride Cruise.
