ABOUT NIGHTHAWK:
1271 A.D.
- The Wolfe's greatest son is a man known as NIGHTHAWK.
Patrick
de Wolfe is every bit his father's son - cunning, intelligent, and ruthless. An
enormous man with his father's dark hair and his mother's pale green eyes, he's
the man destined to lead William de Wolfe's great legacy. He is so great, in
fact, that the king has personally asked for his service, as one of the king's
personal body guards. On the eve of Patrick departing for this auspicious assignment,
he finds himself caught up in a skirmish along the Scots border.
And a
prize lands in his lap that will change his destiny.
A prize
in the form of a Scots captive harboring a deadly and important secret, one
that could bring war and destruction upon those who shelter her. When Brighton
“Bridey” de Favereux is rescued by the powerful English knight, she is taken
back to the massive fortress of Questing Castle, seat of the legendary de Wolfe
family. Having known nothing but hardship and cruelty her entire life, she is
surprised when they are kind to her. The English, who are supposed to be her
mortal enemy, are gracious and generous. For the first time, she understands
that people can be kind to each other.
And the
kindest one of all is the man who saved her.
Some
loves are unexpected while others are instantly realized. The love between
Patrick and Brighton is something that comes from a deeper place of
understanding and attraction, a powerful love that cannot be denied… but it is
a love that may cost them both their very lives when Bridey's terrible secret
is uncovered.
NIGHTHAWK EXCERPT & LINKS:
Patrick
stopped to look at the source of his sister’s interest and when he did, he was
in for a surprise. He’d not seen the lady in the light. When his gaze fell on
her, he felt a bolt of shock run through him - illuminated in the torches was a
woman of unearthly beauty. She had brown hair, but it wasn’t just any shade of
brown; he could see highlights of red and gold reflected in the torchlight. Her
face was sweetly oval, as he’d noticed in the darkness, and she had the biggest
eyes he’d ever seen in a shade of blue that was reflecting pale in the weak
light. Her nose was pert, her skin like cream, and her rosy lips shaped like Cupid’s
bow.
He’d
never seen anything like her in his entire life.
“This…
this is Lady Brighton de Favereux,” he told his sisters, sounding like an idiot
because he was so caught off guard by the woman’s beauty. “We saved her from a
raiding party.”
“Is she
a prisoner?”
“Nay. But….”
Before
he could continue his sentence, his sisters rushed forward and pushed him out
of the way, taking hold of the disheveled, frightened lady. Patrick found
himself overwhelmed by small women, trying to keep hold of the postulate but
being summarily removed.
“My goodness,”
Katheryn said with concern as she put her arm around Brighton’s shoulders.
“What a harrowing experience, my lady. But you are safe now. Come with us and
we shall tend to you.”
Another
thing about Katheryn that reminded Patrick of their mother was the fact that
she could be rather pushy. “Not now, Kate,” he said sternly. “I have many
questions for the lady. I must ask now while the situation is fresh in her
mind.”
Both
Katheryn and Evelyn scowled at him. “Look at her,” Katheryn said, sounding like
she was scolding him. “Are you so cruel that you cannot see how exhausted and
terrified she is? She needs food and a bath. We shall tend to her and when she
is fed and rested, then you may question her. Are you truly so heartless, Patrick,
that you would think of your own demands over her comfort?”
He
frowned. “This has nothing to do with being heartless,” he said. “I have many
pressing questions for the lady and….”
“They
can wait,” Katheryn said firmly, pulling Brighton up the stairs with the help
of her sister. They were boxed in around her, preventing Patrick from retaking
her. It was a rather smart tactical move against him. “Let us feed the woman
and make her comfortable. Then you can go on with your tasteless military
interrogation.”
Patrick
knew he was licked. He shook his head in frustration, watching his sisters
escort Brighton up the stairs and into the keep, being most attentive and kind
to her. It would be futile to argue with them, he knew, stubborn women that
they were.
