FYI, I’ll get the winners from Sunday & today’s post posted tomorrow, March 11.

Today’s excerpt comes from Mythe & Magick, one of my older EC books.

Drumming his fingers on the desk, he continued to stare at her, a frown marring his features. Black, wavy hair tumbled over his forehead, and the scowl sat rather well on his poetically handsome face. His normally smiling mouth was compressed into a grim line, and his straight black brows pulled down over his deep, deep, brown eyes. High, chiseled cheekbones and a mouth that no plastic surgeon could ever hope to duplicate completed his face, a face that had started setting girls to dreaming before he even got to junior high.

Erin knew he was watching her. Hell, she thought with inner amusement, he had always watched her from the day she had left her uniform behind and entered the private sanctum of Avalon’s small detective force. Even before that, she suspected.

Idly, as if just noticing his scrutiny, she glanced up at Seth and smiled at him as a shiver raced down her spine. Just looking at him—even after two years of being his lover and friend—just looking at him was enough to make her mouth water and her knees go weak.

His lids drooped slightly as one corner of his mouth lifted. Erin’s heart starting racing as his eyes focused on her mouth before trailing down her neck and torso, lazily working back up again until he was once more staring into her eyes.

Something was bothering him.

Tearing her gaze away from him wasn’t as easy as she made it appear and that hot, lingering glance had her insides jumping, though she kept a clear, calm mask on her face. Seth Porter had always had the ability to make her body do a slow, subtle meltdown.

He could make her laugh, make her crazy, make her needy. He had already made her love him, something she had sworn she would never do.

She knew him like no other could, even though she doubted he understood just how well she knew him. Erin knew that he wasn’t happy with her, and she knew him well enough to know why.

Erin also knew, as much as it hurt, that there was nothing she could do about it.

She had no intention of getting any more involved with him. As much as she loved him, it wouldn’t be fair.

For those who didn’t read yesterday’s post when I started the contest, the rules are…

• Each day, you get a new chance to win one ebook from my backlist. I’ll post an excerpt from one of my ebooks. To enter, just respond in comments to each new daily excerpt and you’re entered.
  
• Winner’s name will be posted on the blog and you do need to check the blog to see if you’ve won. I’m sorry, but I’ve spent way too much time chasing down winners…and hey, I gotta write. 😉 I’ll try to get it posted the next day, but be patient with me. I’m sooooo forgetful.
• The winner will select one title from my ebook backlist, posted below, or you can check it out via my website here.
• You can enter each day, but once you’ve won, you can’t win any more for this ‘ebook-a-day’ giveaway.
• Please only enter once each day. Don’t enter under multiple email addies. This is rude, it isn’t fair to others. FYI, WordPress tracks IP addies. I reserve the right to delete suspicious entries. Also, because of those who’ve tried rigging contests in the past by entering under multiple emails, I restrict all contests to one entry per household. For more on my contest rules, check out the disclaimer page
  
• The contest is open to anybody, even if you’ve won something from me before. (excluding the ‘ebook-a-day’ contest). The prize is for an ebook, you can take your pick from my backlist, but I won’t be substituting a print book for an ebook. Trying to promote ebooks and all….

And…I won’t just draw one name. I’ll draw 3 each day. So that’s 21 chances to win.

Okay…enter away!

This contest is now completed. Winners posted shortly.  To avoid confusion, no more comments will be allowed.  Thank you!
