A little
bit about the book:
Abby Davenport has
spent the last fifteen years forgetting her past until a fateful night reveals
her false reality. Thrust into a new world of dark sorcery and ancient magic,
she's shocked to discover her destiny lies as the keeper of a powerful relic.
Now everyone wants to control, own, or destroy her. No longer able to discern
truth from lie, she’s torn between a charming guardian and a mysterious
summoner. Abby finds herself strangely drawn to each man—one sworn to protect
and one who calls to her soul. Can she survive the strange and dangerous
labyrinth of the first realm, where every move, emotion, and reaction must be a
calculated one?
Excerpt from Dark
Summoner:
His index finger tapped methodically
against his glass as watched me. “Everything in good time.”
“Sounds like I’m more of a prisoner
than a guest.”
“I don’t take prisoners, Ms.
Davenport. They’re a waste of my time.”
I tried to think of anything I could
to hang over his head. “I doubt the Council would appreciate the way you’re
treating me.”
His face was suddenly very dark.
“The Council is only concerned with their continued reign over the realm. They
only need you alive and doing as they say. Your comfort, your happiness, is
irrelevant to them.”
Doubt crept through my mind. Was
that true? God, I hoped not.
“You know what? I’m done talking to
you. I want to go. Now.” I stood up from my chair. “So send me to the dungeon
or wherever the hell you plan on keeping me. But send me now.” At this point,
I’d take anywhere except being near him. I had too many conflicting emotions,
especially when he was around.
Laughter rumbled through his chest.
“You are in no position to be making demands.”
“And you are an asshole.”
He looked mildly entertained by my
outburst, the corners of his mouth lifted into a wicked smile, but something in
his eyes held a new respect. His gaze shifted from my eyes to my lips,
leisurely traveling up and down my body.
About the
author:
With her debut novel Dark
Summoner, D.D. Miers begins the Relic Keeper Series, a fast-paced romantic saga
filled with danger, destiny, and magic, set in her favorite genre, Paranormal
and Fantasy Romance.
Born with a wildly overactive
imagination, she’s told stories of enchanted worlds, treacherous villains, and
epic love for as long as she can remember. She keeps a watchful eye for the
paranormal hiding around every corner and constantly checks the window or
rearview mirror for a vampire or fairy.
Although she has a fondness for
all things fantasy, she's an epic romance fan at heart and in everything she
asks, “What would Jane Austen do?” The journey to becoming a published author
has been a long but exciting one. A fervent desire for taking readers from the
ordinary to the extraordinary keeps her motivated, and she believes that
everything is better with a good helping of romance thrown in.
D.D. is a proud member of the
Romance Writers of America (RWA) and the Fantasy, Futuristic, & Paranormal
Sub-Genre of RWA (FF&P). She continues to attend conferences and writers’ workshops
in order to help inspire, share, and promote her love for romance.
During her downtime, she loves to
spend time with her family, share her obsession of all things romance with
other fans, and catch up on her never-ending TBR list. She resides in beautiful
Southern California with her wonderful husband, an adorable toddler, two
kitties, and the many different characters living in her head.
