Hey, welcome back for a new round of WeWriWa(Weekend Writing Warriors)– a weekly hop for writers who blog their work! Thanks everyone for dropping by last week and commenting. I enjoyed reading your work too.
Last week I posted an excerpt from my last release, Wicked with Him, and I’m continuing with it today…
Roman knew exactly who was trying to talk to him, and why she was trying so hard not to be seen. He could hardly believe she’d dare. Lady Amity Sweet, niece to the current Duke of Ravenswood, sister to the man he loathed beyond all reason, shouldn’t have sought him out. Not unless she was wanted to be used in Roman’s bid for unending revenge against her older brother. She could be ruined in the blink of an eye. “How may I be of assistance?”
“Ruin me.”
Roman blinked, believing he’d misheard his own thought coming from her lips. “I beg your pardon?”
“Ten minutes. Beneath the staircase. Meet me there and tell no one.”
No one would believe him if he did, anyway.
About the Book
Scandals rarely take place in the center of the ballroom, but on the fringes anything is possible.
From the moment George Sweet stole his intended, Roman Crawford has pursued every possible manner of revenge against the nasty scrub. Though he does have his limits. Debauching Sweet’s sister, a veritable paragon of vestal goodness, is beyond the pale—yet that is exactly what the lady herself requests.
If public humiliation is the only way Amity can escape an arranged marriage to one of her vicious brother’s cronies, then it will be on her terms. She enlists the aid of her brother’s greatest enemy, who she’s certain will be happy to see her brother brought low by her corruption. But Amity is no fool. Roman’s heart will always belong to another.

That’s clear, all right. I love this snippet.
Thanks
This gets better and better. What a wicked web we weave . . .
😀 There’s nothing like a secret assignation!
I loved his confusion–I assume he’s the one who’s always decided who to ruin. I wonder if he’s going to take the request. Great snippet!
Thanks
Well I’m sure he’s caught now, hook line and sinker. Who could resist! Great snippet!
I love shocking my heroes. LOL
Lol! His reaction is priceless! This is good! Nice hook. 🙂
Thank you!
