Today, Finding Their Flame releases. The end of May has not been easy and I’ve been majorly stressed. So I spaced on the pre-order link up until two days ago. But today is all about Finding Their Flame. I love these heroes and I hope you’ll love them as well.
Blurb:
Moriah Ward’s normal life changes in one afternoon. Suddenly, three Gargoyles are courting her, and she’s learning there’s far more to her unusual abilities than she ever guessed. The attraction to the three muscular men unnerves her. She’s not sure how a relationship with them would work, but every moment with them fuels her desire. As she gets to know them, danger draws closer. When she’s attacked, Dante, Cael, and Thane sweep in and take her home with them.
Dante, Cael, and Thane never expected their mate to be half Branal or to have to leave her outside the safety of the community. With Gobel attacks on the rise, their nerves are stretched with worry. Every touch pulls them to her, increasing the heat flaring between them. When danger gets too close, they step in. They have to keep her safe or lose the chance to claim her love.

Excerpt:
Moriah shook her head and smiled. Her gaze settled on Thane. “This is the third man you told me about?”
“Yes, this is Thane Harris. He’s a doctor and was at work the day we met you.” Dante sat back.
“Hi, I’m Moriah.” She reached across the table.
Thane took her hand between both of his and held it for a moment. “I’ve been looking forward to seeing you since last night. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
A blush heated her cheeks. Kudos to Thane for that. Her lashes lowered over her eyes shielding them. What is she thinking?
“You wanted to talk? About what?” Moriah looked to Dante.
“We know this is all very strange to you. Very different from what you know as normal. We wanted a chance to explain. Get to know you and let you learn about us and our lives. We’re not that different even though our customs are a little unusual to you.” Cael braced his arms on the table as he leaned forward.
“I’m not sure that I can do this.” She pulled back from Thane and clenched her hands together.
“Talk only right now.” Thane held up a hand. “We wouldn’t object to you deciding to accept everything, but discovering more about you is our intention today.”
“All right, we can talk, but I need to know you’ll be honest with me even if it doesn’t suit your plans.” She swept her glance over each of them in turn.
Dante narrowed his eyes. Caution flared in her gaze. So watchful. That wasn’t good. She should be able to trust them to tell her the truth.
“Why do I think you already know the answers to some of the questions you’re going to ask?” Dante tapped his fingers on the table.
“Maybe I do, but maybe I don’t.” She grinned. “We might never know unless I catch you in a lie.”
He laughed. “I like you. You’re going to challenge us.”
“I think that’s a good thing.” Cael nodded. “Ask your questions. We won’t lie to you.”
“All right, and just because I’m asking doesn’t mean I’m agreeing to anything.” She narrowed her eyes on them.
“That’s all right. We don’t expect you to. We want to know what you need to make you happy, and the only way we can learn that is if we talk with you.” Thane settled back and took a sip of his coffee.
“Well, how is this three of you thing supposed to work? Do you each get a day out of the week?” She tilted her head.
“No, it’s not like that at all. We’re all part of the bond together. During the claiming, when we’re all together, we will have you one at a time though, but, otherwise, we can make love together or alone, whichever way we like.” Dante shook his head. Some misconceptions were understandable, but trading off days came out of left field. “Not that during that first time, the others will be in another room or even across the room. If you’re all right with it, they’ll even touch you.”
“But what if I’m with one of you more than the others? Will that cause problems in your relationship? I don’t want to make trouble between you when you already seem to be such good friends.” She bit her lip.
“If some of us want more time with you, we’ll talk about it. Getting mad wouldn’t solve anything. We’re more than friends, and we’ve learned that to solve problems in our relationship we have to communicate.” Cael glanced over at Thane.
She frowned and stared at them for a moment. “You’re lovers, too?”
“Yes, is there a problem with that?” Dante asked.
“No problem, I just didn’t expect it.” She shook her head. “All I knew was that you’d be mating with me. I didn’t know that there was more. Is it that way with all Gargoyle relationships?”
“No, it’s not always that way. It depends on the people involved. Some are simply comates with their female. Others are like us and found something more in the relationship with the males of the bond.” Thane reached over and drew his fingers over her hand.
“Okay, that does settle some of that worry. I still don’t understand how your people even started with this type of relationship. Wouldn’t it be easier to find a woman for each of you? I’m sure there are plenty of women who’d volunteer.” She exhaled, and her shoulders slumped.
“But those women wouldn’t be our mate.” Dante reached over and wrapped his fingers around her free hand.
“Yeah, I’m not quite sure that I understand the draw of the mate thing. Couldn’t the woman who was your mate be a raging, evil bitch just as easily as she could be a nice person you’d like to get to know?” She grimaced and looked down at the table.
