Synopsis:
Demon Dolan
Ciar exists on three simple words: desire, denial, and destruction. Every four
years, he is allowed one night of earthly passion to punish a deserving female.
By the time he is finished, his victims are left as willing receptacles for
demons yet to come.
Since
she was four, a demon has been the only constant in Leora Desmond's life. He
taught her how to seize control, to never give up, and to take whatever she
wanted. At twenty-four, her self-centered existence is focused on one thing.
She wants Dolan, and she won't be dissuaded.
A
mistake brought Dolan to Leora. A promise bound him to her. Returning once
again to ask for his freedom, he is faced with Leora demanding to be his next
conquest. The ultimate retribution would be to take from her the ultimate
symbol of her selfishness.
Now,
Dolan must decide if he can doom her to life in living hell or face his own set
of unearthly consequences, while Leora must choose between her pleasure and her
heart.
The
Promise blurs the line between good and evil, desire and love, and promises
and commitment.

Excerpt:
He
tilted his head. "You look older."
She
forced herself to blink and to remember her goal. "Then I assume I am at
last old enough to be a fit for a demon." She stepped forward, stopping
less than a foot away from him. The back of her throat dried out, and she
swallowed.
He put
his hand to his chin, his gaze taking her in. "This old song and dance.
When will you use the brains you have and leave it alone?"
His
words hit her, but rather than retreating, she moved closer. The energy, the
tingle, the wafts of spice encompassed her and lured her toward him.
"Never."
"You
were smart last time. Why don't you release me so I can do what I came here
for." He glanced down at her and then shifted his focus beyond her.
"I have needs as well."
"Tonight
I am the one you came here for." The mention of his last visit stung, but
she willed herself to keep going. She ran her fingers up the buttons of his
shirt. "You always told me to take control."
He shook
his head. "A lesson you learned well."
She
reached up and clenched his collar in her fist. "I let you go last time,
but tonight I am the one you need."
He
grabbed her wrist. "I spared you before. Never forget that."
She
stared right into his eyes. No weakness was allowed tonight. "It's me,
Dolan. Me, or you can be celibate until the decade I do you the favor of dying.
I don't care about your pain." She tensed, preparing herself for his
retaliation.
"I
thought I taught you better than to make demands of a demon." He pressed
his palm to the side of her face.
Heat
radiated through her body, sending a warning to every one of her nerve endings.
"A demon who comforts a child is a failure of a demon in my book."
His jaw
tightened. "That was a mistake. An oversight."
