Here it
is, the new cover for In the Enchanter's Arms! The third book in the Magically Kinky! Magiste
Chronicles is back with a vengeance, and this new smoking hot cover is once
again proof of the talent of Winter Bayne.
I'm
excited about this relaunch – surprisingly,
this book didn't need a lot of rewriting. This was one of the first books I wrote
from beginning to end without having another project going at the same time. My
critique partners know I usually am juggling two books at once - and I do have 2 all-new WIP right now, as a matter of fact! This year in particular has had me working on several projects at a time, what with all the re-releases I've
worked on. But this book (and the 4th in the series) was written pretty much
exclusively at the time of its first draft. I don't know if that's the reason it didn't need a lot of revisions.
Of course, I had to fix some things, like typos, and the million extra and totally unnecessary
commas that had been added to the book. lol There were also some strange turns of phrase that needed massaging, but
overall, this was a pretty clean manuscript. I think is one of my favorites, definitely in the top 3 - for the moment. ;-)
Here's
the gorgeous new cover:

* It Takes a Powerful Dom to Make her Want to Submit *
Being
in control of her life is Enchantress Regine Marchand's mantra, and the role of
Domme is the perfect way to do so. An accomplished equestrian, championship is
in sight - no one will get in her way, not even an overbearing Dom who vows to
take control.
Fascinated
by Regine's cool façade, Cameron McIntyre senses the depth of passion lurking
under the surface. Despite her protests, he recognizes her desire to submit,
and vows to be the one who dominates her. But when he is forced to suspend her
from competition due to illegal performance enhancement spells, he fears he
will drive her away, instead of into his arms. Believing in her innocence, he
promises to help learn who set her up while convincing her that submission to
him is what she truly wants. Submitting to the tall Irishman brings a new level
of pleasure Regine has never known, and makes her question everything she knew
about herself.
When an
unknown enemy from her past targets her for revenge, she and Cameron must
discover who wants to knock her out of competition for good, possibly killing
her in the process.
**
Contains lots of explicit Magically Kinky! love scenes of the paranormal kind,
including magical sex toys, potions, bondage and spanking and more!
How about an excerpt? You know the drill – NSFW! :D Enjoy!
Cameron couldn't take his eyes from her. From the moment
she'd entered the party, his gaze had been locked on her, the mass of dark
blonde curls tied up in a long saucy ponytail, the stiletto-heeled boots that
made her already long legs look like they stretched on forever. He found
himself imagining what it would be like to have them wrapped around his waist
while he pounded deep into her. The intense reaction shook him. Years had
passed since he'd had a response like that to any woman. He knew in that
moment, she was different.
She stood tall, almost evenly eye level with him. He liked
that. He wasn't much for tiny women, fragile as birds, like the ones he usually
found in clubs and parties. He always worried he would break them during a
scene, the agitated concern leaving him detached and unfulfilled. But this
woman, she could take what he gave her.
Did she play at being a domme, or had she only begun
participating in the BDSM world? Something about her hinted at innocence, or a
naiveté, that she covered with her steely attitude. He couldn't say for sure
why he became convinced. Just a gut feeling as he'd told her. His gut was
rarely wrong. He'd seen, rather than heard, the sharp intake of her breath when
she'd watched the flogging and when the other sub had been forced to suck her
master's cock, hands locked behind her back, at the mercy of the man who then
laid a paddle across her ass. This mystery domme had clearly gotten highly
aroused at what she'd seen, and none of it had to do with watching the other
doms. Her gaze had been squarely focused on the women being tormented. No
matter what denials she'd tried to make, the role of sub intrigued her. He'd
been at this game for a long time and knew how to read people.
He watched her speak to her sub, the man sliding out of his
leather pants to lie across the bench. She fastened his cuffs. Cameron absorbed
every movement she made, the way her breasts pushed against her corset when she
bent, the light catching the lines of her muscular thighs, visible beneath the
short leather skirt, her lips moving when she spoke to the young man. He
nodded, responding in the affirmative to every question and Cameron admired her
for taking the care that the man would be comfortable. Well, as much as one could
be, strapped down over a spanking bench, arse high while a woman laid leather
across it.
Cameron wanted to tie her across that bench and redden her
with a paddle, before he plunged into her welcoming heat. He shifted, his
swelling dick constrained by his own leather garments.
She stood back, her crop tapping against her leg. He hung
in the shadows, and couldn't help smiling when she glanced around. Was she
looking for him? He suspected so. Something about the way she hesitated before
she leaned over and spoke one last time to the man tied down before her.
Cameron suspected she gave instructions to put on a good show. Because she wanted him to be watching?
The man gave another nod and she responded with a pleased
smile, but a tremor swept over her. She took a position beside the man, facing
Cameron. Her eyes remained focused on the sub's ass.
His gaze raked over her lean, tall form. She might be an
athlete of some sort; strong defined muscles revealed by the short skirt and
corset, blended with luscious curves he'd love to run his hands over. He wanted
her tied to his bed, open and helpless before him, surrendering her will to
his. His cock pressed against leather, reminding him again how long it had been
since he'd reacted so strongly to a woman. In the few years since losing Ciara,
he'd taken his pleasures, but no woman had inspired this sort of response.
Below her mask, her plump red lips caught his attention.
They bore the same shade as a mouthwatering glass of exotic wine, one he wanted
to sip slowly and savor. Merlin, he could make a meal just nibbling on those
lips.
Over the murmurs of the audience, Cameron clearly heard her
say, "Count."
She raised her arm and brought the crop down across both
cheeks of the man's ass. He barely moved and distinctly said, "One."
Cameron folded his arms, watching her technique. She did
know how to wield the crop, bringing it down again and again, each strike
landing directly beside the previous one, leaving a precise pattern of stripes.
The sub counted precisely, though by the tenth stroke, a harsh groan escaped
him when she swung the leather a bit harder. Cameron couldn't take his eyes
from the domme. Her cheeks flushed, shoulders swaying with each breath, lips
parted, she looked like a decadent, wild creature. One he wanted to tame.
He stood silently, absorbing every detail of her
interaction with the sub. She crouched before his head and they spoke and for a
moment, a smile curved her mouth. A surge of jealousy that she hadn't smiled
like that at him surprised him. He wanted
that warmth, wanted her touch. He had to fight to keep from stalking over there
and pulling her long fingers away from the man's face.
All too soon, she uncuffed her sub from the bench and let
him pull her close for a hug. Cameron's vision went red and his hands clenched.
His teeth ground together as she turned away. He couldn't watch anymore. Need
pounded in his head, his cock painfully hard. He needed this seen to. All
around him, willing subs mingled, any one of them could take care of him. But
he didn't want any of them. He made his way to the bar and growled out a
request for a double Scotch. He tossed
it back, and requested another. Finally the haze in his thoughts cleared and he
knew exactly what he had to do.
