Heaton has created a brand new series that paranormal lovers will undoubtedly
love. The world, which she creates in Kissed by a Dark Prince, is beautifully
vivid, so much so that it was easy to visual and believe in the world she
created.
Felicity
Heaton's flawless narrative was a pleasure to read. Her craft is polished and
visually highly developed. Her characters, Olivia and Loren were equally
well-developed characters, with a range of personality traits and relationship
developments that made following their story easy.
The plot was
hot, fast-paced and filled with unbelievable action. This is definitely a new
series that I can readily become hooked on.
Olivia thinks it’s her lucky night when a dangerously handsome unconscious fae
ends up on her inspection table. He’s her chance to redeem herself with her
employer, the demon-hunting organisation, Archangel. But when the tall, dark
and deadly immortal warrior awakes, she gets much more than she bargained for…
Attacked by his enemy in the elf kingdom, the last thing Prince Loren expects when he comes around is a beautiful angel watching over him and medical technology of the mortal realm. Hazy from his injuries, all he can focus on is the pulse ticking in her throat and the sweet allure of her blood.
One single bite reveals she is his eternal mate, triggering a bond between them that will leave him weakened until it is completed… or broken, and pulling Olivia into the crossfire of his ancient feud.
To protect his people and his mate from the machinations of a madman, Loren must risk everything by working with Olivia at Archangel to find a way to break the bond blossoming between them.
But will Loren be strong enough to place duty before desire and give up the one thing he has waited millennia for and craves above all others—his eternal mate? And will Olivia be able to resist the incredible heat that burns between them and the temptation of her dark prince’s kiss?

Kissed by a Dark Prince –
Excerpt
Olivia’s knuckles
burned.
The man she had
planted on his backside didn’t look as though she had dealt much damage with her
blow though. She had the feeling she had caused herself more pain than she had
inflicted on him. She stood over him, letting him see the full extent of her
anger in her eyes. It was a little over two days since he had tried to take a
chunk out of her throat and her fury over it hadn’t dropped from a boil to a
simmer. The twin wounds on her neck were still sore, irritating her, a constant
reminder of what he had done.
She had thought
about how this meeting would go many times during the course of the past fifty
hours, considering all the scenarios, but she had never once imagined it would
actually happen and she would see him again.
She had definitely
never imagined he would kidnap her from her apartment.
Where the hell was
she?
Her gaze darted
between him and the room, trying to take it all in without giving him a chance
to attack her unawares.
If he tried anything
funny, she was aiming lower and with her foot. He was anatomically similar to a
human male and that meant she could deal him a blow he would definitely feel,
all without causing herself a single ounce of pain.
The room around her
was dark and grim, the walls and floor made of stone that verged on black, and
the ceiling made up of a rich sort of timber. The arched windows at intervals
along the wall to her right and the tall arched door a few metres behind her on
the same wall let in a large amount of light though. The world outside was
bright. Far brighter than it should have been. He had taken her in the dead of
night. Were they on the other side of the world now?
The man picked
himself up off the floor and she scooted back a step, brandishing her fists in
front of her. He cocked an eyebrow at her and rubbed his mouth with the back of
his hand, his purple eyes darkening. She knew that look. She had pissed him
off. Not what she had aimed to do, but it was satisfying nonetheless.
“You have a hell of
a lot of nerve, Mister. You take liberties with my vital fluids and then you
kidnap me?” She stood her ground when he rose to his full height, reminding her
just how tall he was, the honed muscles of his bare torso stretching with his
action.
Olivia refused to
let her eyes drift down and take in that delicious body. He had hurt her. He
was some kind of demon and he had bitten her, and she’d had enough damn men in
her life like that. She wasn’t looking for a repeat performance with the tall,
dark and deadly slice of sexy standing before her. No way.
She really wasn’t.
“Do you intend to
hurt me?” She was sure that he wasn’t likely to be honest and tell her if he
was, but she had to ask.
He shook his head.
“No. To hurt you would be to hurt myself.”
That sounded rather
noble and romantic. She glanced around the room again. It was huge, and the
furniture was solid wood, possibly ebony, and very ornate. Was she in a castle?
This was how she had imagined castles looked. Why did he live in a castle?
“Female, tell me
everything about how we met.” That commanding tone again. He was a man used to
getting his way, issuing orders and having people obey, and he seemed to live
in a castle on the other side of the world to her offices in London.
Her mind supplied
that perhaps he was a knight or a prince. He had a regal bearing and was
handsome enough to be someone of noble blood. He acted like a stuck up bastard
too.
He took a step
towards her and Olivia moved back one, keeping the distance between them
steady. She wasn’t sure whether he had other powers besides the ability to
teleport, but she wasn’t going to risk letting him close the gap. He had
already bitten her once. There was nothing to say he wasn’t going to try that
trick again and drain her dry this time. She bristled at the memory of him
attacking her and clenched her fists.
He halted and
quirked an eyebrow at her. Maybe he had good senses like many demons and had
detected her anger.
“Listen. I’ll answer
your questions but if you come near me, I won’t be held responsible for the
damage done to your private parts.”
He backed off a
step. It seemed that even demons had preservation instincts when it came to
their balls.
“Better.” She moved
a step too, enlarging the gap, giving herself more space and ending up closer
to the doors. The rich blue sheer curtains billowed on a warm breeze that
smelled like blossom. Southern hemisphere? It was early autumn in the northern.
“The patrol team found you close to the facility.”
“How close?” He
frowned, his eyes darkening.
“That was the weird
thing. You were practically dropped on our doorstep... like a gift.”
He cursed in his
foreign tongue, his expression turning pensive, which was not good for Olivia
because he was even more handsome when the black slashes of his eyebrows drew
together, his sensual lips pursed, and his purple eyes flashed with keen
intelligence.
“I knew it,” he
muttered, his bass voice still at odds with his lean athletic figure. He paced,
his boots making no sound on the floor.
How could he move
silently like that? The dark floor was solid stone and his boots looked heavy,
the soles made of layers of leather and possibly wood. He should be shaking the
foundations with each determined stride, but he wasn’t.
She had a thousand
questions she wanted to ask him, most of them about whether she was getting out
of this alive, but couldn’t find the courage to voice them when he looked so
dark and troubled.
Olivia settled for
tracking him as he paced, sure that he would have another question for her
soon, because he was thinking hard. He was pale too, maybe even more so than he
had been when she’d had him on her inspection table. Was he still sick?
His purple gaze
flitted to her, and then away, and then back again. Whenever it landed on her,
he looked lost for a moment, bewildered, as if he had forgotten what he was
supposed to be doing but had a suspicion he had been doing something before
setting eyes on her.
Olivia’s body
betrayed her every time his gaze landed on her, flushing with fiery heat and
that shivery achy feeling that had come over her when they had first met. She
cursed herself. She was not going to go through this again. At least the first
time she hadn’t realised that she was dealing with a demon until he had tried
to take down the central headquarters of Archangel. She knew this time and she
had her barriers up and locked in place. There was no way he was going to break
them down.
She was not going to
lust after another demon.
He wheeled around to
his right and her eyes shot to the arched door near the other end of the room,
close to a low long cabinet.
It was one of the
men from the other night. The one who had spoken. She recognised his face. He
still wore his suit of armour, but his helmet was gone, revealing black-blue
overlong wild hair. Did all of their species have the same hair and eye colour?
He stared at her, purple eyes dark and cold, but laced with a touch of
surprise.
“I sensed your
agitation.” He switched his focus to the man who had bitten and kidnapped her.
“Is everything well, my prince?”
Prince. Oh my. She
had been right on the money. Her kidnapper was a prince. A prince of what
though?
The other male’s
eerie gaze slid back to her and narrowed, and Olivia had the dreadful feeling
that he would be all too willing to kill her if she was upsetting the man he
had referred to as his prince.
The prince in
question shook his head and waved regally, dismissing the male. “That action
will not be necessary, Bleu. The female is not a threat to me.”
Olivia bristled at
that. She could have killed him when she’d had him unconscious on her
inspection table. Not a threat her ass.
Both men slid deadly
looks her way and Olivia realised she had said it all aloud. She shrank back,
trying to make herself look as small and nonthreatening as possible.
