New Release from Joanne Wadsworth – Her Pirate Prince.
♥ HER PIRATE PRINCE ♥
The Mediterranean isn’t safe.
An irritating fact to be sure, but that won’t stop Captain Anteros Bourbon from showing his new wife around his Mediterranean island of Paradiso. His island borders the volatile sea where the Barbary corsairs reign, or at least they did reign. He now does, and he won’t allow any corsair to step foot on his land. Unfortunately, it appears one corsair has, as well as now stolen his wife right out from under his nose.
That corsair clearly has a death wish.
Furious, Anteros sets out to engage in a battle like no other. He intends on destroying the man who has gotten in his way, retrieve the woman he loves then ensure every single enemy he has (of which he has plenty) understands the brutal lengths he’ll go to, to keep his loved ones safe.
Death wishes, hopefully, can be dealt with.
Get it now and escape to the high seas where anything goes. (Novella of 31,000 words.)

Her Pirate Prince – Here’s a tasty excerpt:
Anteros took a running jump and seized the slit in the craggy rock cliff face.
Swinging upward, he nabbed each hand and foothold and climbed.
Halfway up, he caught the distinct mark on the rock of where the intruder had left their booted scuffmark behind. He was more than ready to throttle this interloper.
“Anteros!” Olivia shouted from below on the beach, her hands cupped to her mouth. “Where are you going?”
“To find out exactly who has dared to step foot on this island.” All the residents of Paradiso knew not to trespass on Gioiello. It belonged to him and his family alone.
“Perhaps it was Giovani returning for the basket?” She gave him a hopeful look.
“No, he knew I wished for absolute privacy with you this day.” He grabbed the next handhold and heaved up. Something fluttered about in a slit in the rock directly above his head. A piece of paper. He climbed toward it, made the ledge and shuffled along.
Carefully, he plucked the paper from the slit and turned it over. It was sealed with red wax holding the Dey of Algiers’ insignia.
“What have you found?” On the tips of her stockinged toes, she peered up at him.
“A message from Dey Hazim.” Under his breath, he growled as he broke the seal. After he unfolded the paper, he read out loud, “La morte viene per la tua sposa.”
“Morte. Isn’t that death?” Shock vibrated through Olivia’s voice.
“Sì. Death comes for your bride. That is the message Hazim has sent us.” He stuffed the message into his pocket, stabbed his fingers into the next handhold and swung higher. Whoever had delivered this message would soon know death themselves. No one, absolutely no one, threatened his wife’s life.
“Be careful, Anteros.” Olivia searched his gaze. “Please.”
“I can’t ignore this threat.” He grasped the top edge of the cliff, rolled over the precipice and keeping low in a crouch, scanned the cliff top. No one was up here, although a set of boot prints led away. He traced the prints with one finger. They were small, belonged to a child.
“Have you found something?” Olivia called, her voice getting whipped away on the breeze.
“I have.” He eased to the edge. At the base of the rock wall, she stood with her hands pressed to the craggy surface. “A set of prints, and they belong to a child.”
“Are you certain?”
“I’m certain.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Hazim is known for using children to send messages, children he considers expendable. Slave children.”
“That’s awful.” Disgust flared on her face.
“I need you to take Fedele into the trees and stay out of sight while I find the child. Promise me you’ll remain hidden.”
“I promise.” She clutched her skirts, fingers clenched tight in the red folds. “Don’t be long.”
“I won’t. Now go.” He waited as she hurried across to his horse and unknotted the reins. Only once she’d led his mount into the trees and remained hidden from his sight, did he follow the line of prints.

Her fated mate.

She holds one of the rarest of their people’s fae abilities and her immortal soul needs healing. Her desire to embrace the dark is drawing her deeper and deeper into despair and now he is left with no choice. He needs to bring his mate’s soul back into the light, or else she’ll destroy them both.

Here’s a Tasty Excerpt from Highlander’s Courage
“You need to feed now. Wrist or neck? I’m not taking no for an answer.” Liam pulled a wheeled chair forward, shucked his lab coat and jerked up the sleeves of his blue button-down shirt before wrenching his collar to one side and sending the top two buttons pinging off. “Your choice.”
“Your wrist. Open one of your veins.” If Cairstine didn’t accept his help, she’d get worse. Perhaps even as worse as Mairi had gotten. She yanked the lines from her chest, freed herself from the monitor and toppled onto his lap. “Oomph, sorry. Legs not working.”
“I understand.” His claws sliced out and he clenched one fist, pumped his hand, and stabbed his prominent wrist vein. “Take whatever you need from me.”
“Thank you.” She wrapped her mouth around his stab wound and jerked as his lifeforce flowed down her parched throat. Her nipples tightened, and a tingle radiated out from the sensitive tips. Oh my, he tasted incredibly delicious, far richer and warmer and vibrant than he had any right to taste. Pulling the laces of her bodice together as best as she could, she continued to suckle madly.
“Take your time. I’m not going anywhere.” Soothing words as he tucked her in closer.
Feeding even faster, she leaned her head against his shoulder and curled into his warmth. His heat swamped her after the bitter cold which had taken her.
He cupped the back of her head, whispered in her ear, “I can’t believe you stopped breathing. I’ve never heard of that happening to an ancient before.”
No, he wouldn’t have, not when it wasn’t possible.
Except it had happened to Mairi, right before she had Turned. Not that she’d ever told another soul that, or recorded the information in the tomes. Brief notes only had been made.
“You’ve gone quiet.” Liam tightened one arm around her waist. “Has my vein closed over? It does that rather quickly whenever I’m bagging my own blood for the supply I like to keep on hand in the blood-donation fridge. My shifter healing kicks in rather fast, I’m afraid. Try my chest, if you wish. There’s a larger vein there that remains open longer, right over my heart.”
“Thank you.” She yanked his collar wider, clamped her mouth over his left pec and sank her teeth deep. More blood flowed into her mouth, crashed over her tongue and sizzled along her senses. His rich essence hit her like a rampaging river, so iron-rich and delectable.

♥ TO LOVE DURING WAR ♥
A Clean & Sweet Historical Regency Romance
My dearest hussar,
Harry, from the day you arrived at St. Vincent’s Fort six months ago, an undeniable attraction began to simmer away between us. Whenever I got too close to you, my traitorous heart skipped a dratted beat and butterflies would abound in my belly. You have tempted me with your honor and integrity, with your deep love for your family and your fellow soldiers-in-arms. I’m aware you will fight to the death to ensure Napoleon doesn’t end up taking Portugal, and so will I. Our enemy cannot be permitted to rule all of Europe, or to force his way onto England’s shores.
I admire all that you are, but you are also from a titled English family and of far better blood than I. My true parents abandoned me as a wee baby and if not for the professor who adopted me, I would have been left to perish. That is why I will never attempt to take our friendship any deeper than I should. Days together enjoying companionable friendship is all that I’ve asked for, but this war keeps tearing us apart, as if we shouldn’t even be permitted that much.
Never fear for me, my hussar—we will both survive this coming battle. It is time for us to slay our enemy, to win this dratted war, then for you to return safely to your family.
Yours in deep friendship, Julia.
