Today’s tease comes from the book Her Dark Angel<\/strong><\/a>, which is the first book in my popular Her Angel romance series<\/em><\/a>. Read on for this Tuesday’s tease…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Serenity\u2019s hazel eyes went wide and she stepped back when the hulking mass of man standing before her drew the sword that hung at his waist, afraid that he had changed his mind and was going to kill her after all. She wasn\u2019t sure what to think when he eased himself down onto one knee in front of her, lowered his head, and held his sword out to her, the hilt and tip of the beautiful blade resting on his palms.<\/p>\n \u201cI am yours to command.\u201d His French was perfect, making his deep voice so sexy that a shiver tripped over her skin whenever he spoke.<\/p>\n Was she supposed to do something?<\/p>\n People were staring again as they passed. What did they see? They certainly weren\u2019t seeing a man offering a sword to her, that was for sure. To them, did he look as though he was kneeling with his hands raised in supplication?<\/p>\n Was he dressed in black and gold armour that didn\u2019t leave much to the imagination?<\/p>\n Did he have huge black feathered wings? \u201cErm, okay.\u201d Serenity hesitated before touching the sword. The gleaming steel was cold beneath her fingers. She took her hand away, not liking the feel of it. \u201cThanks.\u201d<\/p>\n He stood with grace, his muscles shifting beneath his golden skin, and she tried not to stare at his physique. Either he worked out a lot, or angels were naturally endowed with the body of a god. He was pure perfection as he stood close to her, his broad chest rising and falling, moving the beautifully decorated black breastplate. His stomach was bare, taut muscles delighting her hungry eyes, and the smallest black loincloth in the world protected his modesty.<\/p>\n Something that she was lacking. She lowered her gaze, taking in the toned length of his legs. They were as powerful as the rest of him. Her eyes roamed back up, over the black cuffs that covered his forearms, decorated in gold with images of lions, and over his biceps to his strong shoulders. From there, they wanted to go to his face, but his wings were too fascinating. They were large, casting a shadow across both him and her, tucked against his back.<\/p>\n She wanted to walk around him and investigate every delicious inch of him, taking in that he really was an angel and not a man parading as one.<\/p>\n An angel.<\/p>\n Abaddon.<\/p>\n Her mother had taught her gods, goddesses and mythology. She knew all about him and his kind.<\/p>\n Her eyes finally leapt to his face. He had a smile that could stop hearts and vivid blue eyes with icy flecks in them. They held her gaze, unwavering and strong, and her temperature rose when they narrowed slightly and his pupils widened. What was he thinking in there?<\/p>\n Did he like what he saw as much as she did?<\/p>\n The man was a god.<\/p>\n No, an angel.<\/p>\n And he was beautiful.<\/p>\n Breathtaking.<\/p>\n But he wasn\u2019t at all as she had thought an angel would look. Everything about him spoke of darkness, right down to his aura. Whatever power he had, it was strong and it wasn\u2019t the sort that resurrected mortals or healed them. It felt as though the opposite would happen if he unleashed it.<\/p>\n Abaddon. The angel of death. Although he had denied that title. What title did he claim as his then?<\/p>\n \u201cSo, Abaddon\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cApollyon,\u201d he interjected with a charming smile that teased his sensual lips and made her heart beat a little faster.<\/p>\n He was an angel. No matter how good he looked and how much he was making her forget her pain just by looking at him, she couldn\u2019t think about him like that. It was wrong of her. He had offered his assistance in getting revenge on her bastard ex and she was going to take it. Whatever dark power this gorgeous man had, she was going to let it rip in her ex\u2019s direction.<\/p>\n \u201cApollyon?\u201d She stopped her gaze from dropping down to take him in again. If she told him to put on something a little less distracting, would he be able to do it? She had seen through whatever spell he had used. Could he ever fool her eyes?<\/p>\n \u201cI prefer my true name.\u201d He cast a quick glance over her. His eyes lingered in all the places a mortal man\u2019s would.<\/p>\n Surely, she was off limits too? Angels were asexual weren\u2019t they?<\/p>\n The voice at the back of her mind said that the tall hunk of handsome standing in front of her definitely didn\u2019t look asexual. He looked like sin incarnate, not like an angel at all.<\/p>\n \u201cSerenity.\u201d She offered her hand to him.<\/p>\n He took it and a jolt ran through her at the feel of his strong warm hand grasping hers. She shook his hand but he didn\u2019t let go when she was done. He held it, his thumb resting lightly against hers.<\/p>\n \u201cMy mother thought I could bring peace to a chaotic world.\u201d Her heart sped when his thumb grazed hers and then he took his hand back, his fingers brushing her palm and sending another shiver through her. \u201cI\u2019m not much good at it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAt what?\u201d He quirked a dark eyebrow and tilted his head to one side.<\/p>\n Serenity sighed inside. Did he know how good he looked? Could angels be conceited? She supposed they were all beautiful so he probably didn\u2019t realise that the reason all the women were staring as they passed wasn\u2019t because they thought he was apprehending her or anything of the sort.<\/p>\n They were staring for the same reason she was.<\/p>\n The man was six feet plus of godliness.<\/p>\n \u201cBeing peaceful… I\u2019m actually quite chaotic.\u201d She shrugged. \u201cNothing I do comes out right. I mean… I thought I was casting a simple spell for vengeance and suddenly you\u2019re here telling me that you heard me calling you. I wasn\u2019t asking for an angel.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou weren\u2019t.\u201d He placed his palm flat against her chest and she jumped. Her pulse rocketed and she blushed from head to toe at the feel of his wrist against her breasts. \u201cYour heart called me, not your words.\u201d<\/p>\n Serenity smiled and nervously took hold of his hand and removed it from her chest before she lost control and threw herself at him.<\/p>\n \u201cSo you\u2019re good with revenge?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cVery good at it.\u201d He stood taller, straightening to his full impressive height, looking even nobler and handsome. \u201cI am Apollyon, the great destroyer, king of the bottomless\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWait.\u201d She cut him off and held her hands up. \u201cGreat destroyer? Maybe this isn\u2019t such a good idea. I mean, you\u2019re an angel and your boss-on-high would probably be a little upset if you blew up half of Paris to fulfil my wish for revenge, and I don\u2019t want him dead… just in pain… and I can really take care of this myself. I didn\u2019t mean to bother you.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt is little bother.\u201d He frowned. \u201cI will only do as you command. The choice of revenge will be yours and I will exact it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhat about your boss?\u201d She didn\u2019t want to piss God off. She was sure that he was already fairly angry that people like her existed on Earth, those that could use magic and make their own miracles.<\/p>\n Not that she had managed anything like that so far. She was better at lighting candles and the small stuff like love potions.<\/p>\n Serenity glanced up at Apollyon. Would a love potion work on an angel?<\/p>\n She cursed and told herself to get a grip. Angels probably couldn\u2019t enter into relationships with mortals and this attraction to him was probably because she was rebounding.<\/p>\n \u201cYou are my master now.\u201d The serious edge to his expression said that he wasn\u2019t joking. \u201cI do as you bid.\u201d<\/p>\n Serenity\u2019s eyebrows rose and she slowly absorbed the fact that she had her own personal angel.<\/p>\n \u201cThen we should…\u201d She wasn\u2019t sure what they should do. Skulk off and plan something horrible to do to her ex because he\u2019d cheated on her? It all felt a little cloak and dagger and not at all like her. She had never sworn revenge on anyone, had always let her anger go and just got on with her life. Not this time though. She wanted him to pay. \u201cDo you drink coffee?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI have never tried it.\u201d Apollyon smiled. \u201cBut I have been told by others that it tastes strangely bitter and sweet at the same time, and has an interesting effect on the body. I would like to try it.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cCoffee it is.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n Did you enjoy today’s tease?<\/p>\n Caris Roane<\/a> is also posting a Teaseday snippet, so be sure to check out her blog and read it! http:\/\/carisroane.com\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Serenity is shocked when a wickedly sensual black-winged angel shows up in her city of Paris claiming that she called him when she was only casting a simple vengeance spell. He\u2019s no other than the angel of death! When the lethally handsome warrior offers to obey her and give her revenge, Serenity can\u2019t resist the temptation, but can she resist the forbidden hungers the dark angel stirs in her?<\/p>\n Intense and passionate, Her Dark Angel is a tale of desire and deepest forbidden love guaranteed to set your heart racing.<\/p>\n Available in e-book from:<\/strong> Amazon Kindle<\/strong><\/a> | Amazon Kindle UK<\/strong><\/a> | Amazon Kindle Germany<\/strong><\/a> | Amazon Kindle France<\/strong><\/a> | Amazon Kindle Canada<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Apple iBookstore USA<\/strong><\/a> | Apple iBookstore UK<\/strong><\/a> | Apple iBookstore Australia<\/strong><\/a> | Apple iBookstore Canada<\/strong><\/a> | Apple iBookstore New Zealand<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Barnes and Noble<\/strong><\/a> | Kobo Books<\/strong><\/a> | Sony Reader Store<\/strong><\/a> | Smashwords<\/strong><\/a> | All Romance eBooks<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Available in paperback from:<\/strong> <\/p>\n If you haven’t had a chance to read any of the books in the Her Angel romance series<\/em><\/a> yet, they’re all available at major ebook retailers and in paperback, and you can find the links and samples of the books at my website:<\/p>\n Her Dark Angel (Her Angel Romance Series #1)<\/a> <\/p>\n Today’s tease comes from the book Her Dark Angel, which is the first book in my popular Her Angel romance series.

\nShe imagined that he didn\u2019t. If he did, the people would probably be screaming rather than merely glancing at him as though he had gone insane.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.felicityheaton.com\/images\/uploads\/picDetailherdarkangel.jpg\" "\\"Her")
