HATING HER KING

'Gwen pushed him back, trying to create enough space between them. "I do not love you." Alexander smirked. "You do. You just don't know that you do." Gwen moved back. "Do you know the ways of my heart." "Yes, I do. And it tells the truth. You are only too stubborn to acknowledge it." He moved closer, pressing her against the wall. "When you decide to tell yourself the truth, I will be waiting." He kissed her forehead. "But don't make me wait long. I am not as patient as people think." This time he kissed her lips and staked off, leaving Gwen in a complete daze.' Marriage and a family is all life is to Gwen and she would see to it that she is not humiliated before then. A wife, and not a mistress is what she plans to be, but what can be done when the king of her country makes a proposal to put her by his side? Alexander is used to getting what he wants and getting his way, after all, he is King. But when he sets his eyes on the young and beautiful Guinevere who is just as stubborn as he is, will making her stay at the castle earn him her love, or will it be the beginning of his undoing? (Hating Her King is the sequel to Loving Her Duke and is also the second book of the British Blood Trilogy.)

Are You Not Gwen's Admirer?

Gwen plucked the other clothings from the line and heaved them into the basket, then supporting the weight with her hips, she entered the house.

Mrs. Grace was waiting for her. "Mrs. Grace?" She gasped, startled. "Why are you in the kitchen?"

The older woman was smiling. "Your father is calling for you." She collected the basket. "Go to him. He is in the Marble Room."

The Marble Room? "Is it something of great concern?"

"I should think not. Rather something of great joy."

Her eyebrows hitched. "Would you be kind enough to share?"

Mrs. Grace dropped the basket by the door. "A rider came in earlier, asking for your father, and asking for you." She took Gwen's hands, her eyes twinkling. "I believe it is your admirer. It seems he has finally come to reveal himself."
