Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Katee Robert to the blog, author of Queen of Swords! She's here today to share with us some of her favorite teasers from the book. So, check it out & let me know what you guys think!
Synopsis: When the cards tell Ophelia Leoni she' supposed to marry the Prince of Hansarda, the gunrunner grits her teeth and boards the starship that comes for her. It doesn't matter if the ship's commander is the gorgeous stranger she just spent a wild, drunken night with. As a Diviner, she’s painfully aware the cards don't lie. Ever.
Boone O’Keirna knows Ophelia is trouble the second he sees the way she moves. Not about to let the deadly little hellcat marry his sadistic half-brother, Boone pretends to be the Prince’s emissary and kidnaps Ophelia. Too bad they can’t be in the same room without him wanting to throw her out an airlock–or into bed.
Even as they fight each other–and their explosive attraction–Ophelia and Boone sense something is wrong. Too much is going their way. Soon, they realize while the cards may never lie, the truth is sometimes hidden between them...and the future king of Hansarda is not one to take defeat lying down.
Queen of Swords is available June 12th, 2012 from Entangled Publishing!

Teasers:
Please note, this is an adult title.
#1 - Against her
better judgment, her gaze slid to the man taking up more than his fair share of
the bed. He was delicious. Absolutely delicious. Even relaxed in sleep, his
muscles stood out beneath tanned skin marred by scars. The marks crisscrossed
up his back and over his shoulders, perfect, shiny lines made by some kind of
blade, or maybe giant claws. They were enough to make her reconsider her
morning-after policy and crawl back into bed with him.
#2 - Schooling his face, Boone spun around, forcing her to
scramble back to avoid running into him. “Problem?”
“Yeah. This crap bucket doesn’t look like it will fly, let alone
get to a Far Reach planet like Hansarda.”
Whichwasthepoint.“And?”
“And?” She sputtered and threw her hands in the air. “Lady, but
I’ve been saddled with an idiot.”
“You really shouldn’t clench your jaw. It’s not good for your
teeth.”
Boone had a hard
time keeping a grin off his face when she gave a little shriek. He shouldn’t
get so much pleasure from riling her up, but while they were arguing he had an
excuse to watch her. Her violet eyes practically shot lasers at him, her face
lighting up with anger.
Katee Robert learned to tell
stories at her grandpa’s knee. Her favorites then were the rather epic
adventures of The Three Bears, but at age twelve she discovered romance novels
and never looked back. Now living in Eastern Washington, she spends her time—in
between ogling men’s goodies and planning for the inevitable zombie
apocalypse—writing speculative romance novels.
