THE QUEEN OF SWORDS is almost ready to send out to publishers, so it's time to write the dreaded "blurb"--something I also need to do very soon for THE KNIGHT OF WANDS (for the back cover, not as a "query"). Below is what I've come up with so far to describe TQOS. Would love feedback. Anybody? Does it draw you in and make you want to read the book?
Her love for him has
the power to reach beyond the grave . . .
When Graham Logan, a Scottish nobleman turned immortal
blood-drinker, draws the Queen of Swords, he knows he’s about to meet the love
of his life—for the third time. But surrendering his heart will mean risking
her life or making her like him, two things his beliefs won’t allow him to do. Graham,
who walks a tightrope of regret and sacrifice, rages at God: Why give her back
only to take her again?
Cat Fingal, the second re-incarnation of Graham’s soulmate,
won’t let him slip away so easily. A white witch, she casts a spell to summon
him—for answers and to deflower her—making his refusal impossible.
Graham is sure she’s come back to punish him for abandoning
her and his unborn heir on the eve of their wedding back in 1815. Cat believes
she’s returned to free his soul by forcing him to reevaluate everything he
believes about love, forgiveness, and the afterlife.
Before he can defeat his darkest demons, both internal and
external, Graham must awaken to the truth and put his faith in the power of
love.
