I’m thrilled to be back on Sexy Snippets. This snippet follows on from the last one, where Hayden wins a kiss but refuses, noting its up to him to decide when to claim his prize. In this scene, Talia stumbles into Hayden while his is training vampire children, some of whom have significant physical challenges.
Snippet
“You were like him as a child.” Her heart clenched in compassion.
“My mother never let me give in to my differences. She taught me that while we may be denied certain choices in life, we should make the most of those we had.” His lips were now so close to hers, she could almost feel them, so she leaned in.
“No kiss,” he said against her lips, their softness a torment to her overheating flesh. “Not yet.”

Blurb:
On the night of the full moon, any male shifter can call the Trials to race against Talia Orion, alpha of the united wolf-eagle clans. Clan law requires Talia to marry the winner of the Trials, a grueling twenty-mile marathon through dangerous, rugged terrain. Talia, the product of an unhappy, political alliance masquerading as a marriage, trains obsessively to ensure she avoids her parents’ fate. Her newest vampire trainer, Hayden Mitchell, makes her powerful even as he knocks down her defenses, and finds his way into her heart. Hayden has loved Talia since the first moment he saw her. As the destined ruler of the vampire clan, he has another agenda to politically unite Talia’s clans with his own—what Talia fears most, and will never forgive him for.
