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...

The Promise by Lauren Hunter. I must say it has been awhile since a historical romance has caught my attention!  I read this book very quickly.  I loved the banter between the Duke and Lady Elizabeth and I loved the concept:  True Soul mates exist and not even death can separate them. I love historical romance, but a lot of modern ones have left me disappointed due to the lack of research with their time period; however, Lauren Hunter's writing shows she took the time to make it accurate and believable for the time period she has written about and to me that is one of the most important aspects of historical fiction of any kind. There is a lot of back and forth between the Duke and Lady Elizabeth and even though Lady Elizabeth tries to rebuke the Duke, he is determined to win her.  This all leads to a plot twist that I didn't see coming!  If you are a fan of historical romance, this book is for you!  A very solid 5!

We hope you've already had chance to check out our review of Lauren's The Coffee Shop; it really is a very enjoyable and different paranormal read. What we have now, which is one of my favourite parts, is our author interview with a rafflecopter giveaway just after! I love author interviews, as it really helps to give an insight into their world, their inspiration. It really is a fascinating place! So please, enjoy getting to know Lauren that little bit better. Enjoy. 1.      Tell us a bit about yourself. Okay, ‘a bit about yourself.’ ; )   Not much to tell really, other than I am working to get my writing published. My novels and short stories are being contracted for publication, and I hope to continue on that same path. 2.      What inspired you to write your first book? My first book? I don’t know if I would say I was inspired...
