Publisher: Mixed Plate Press
The secrets Scarlett Fareview has hidden from her family are finally out in the open, but not without consequences. Alienating everyone she loves, she must face the hurt and betrayal she wrought with her duplicity. And the cost is high. In this series of novellas, the Fareveiws deal with the aftermath of Scarlett’s deception. Scarlett must face Tomas and her children, Brinna must determine if she and Luc can forge a future, and Auri and Nix face the next obstacle to their forever. Along with many other familiar characters, these stories bridge the gap between the end of In the Shadow of a Dream and the final book in the Fareview saga, In the Shadow of an Obsession.
From In the Shadow of a Kiss Novella
Had Brinna imagined that one day she would be standing in a floating estate in the sky kissing the god of day and light after he’d said he loved her, she’d have laughed. Her imagination had always tended to run away with her, but this was beyond her wildest imaginings. Except Lucian’s extraordinary kiss slipped between her doubt and reinforced the tether that existed between them. They were god-yoked! She hadn’t known she was godblood—confirmed by her mother—but now it all made sense.
“Get out of your head, Brinna,” Lucian ordered, then pulled her bottom lip gently with his teeth. “Be here,” he said, letting her go and speaking against her mouth, his supple lips reminding her of what was real and right in front of her. “With me.”
Though she’d started this kiss, Lucian took control of it, his mouth, his tongue, his teeth reinforcing who she belonged to. Her dreams of him, of this, had been marvelous, but this—the reality of kissing him—was infinite like the cosmos, something bigger than she could even understand.
His mouth was somehow both dominant and submissive. When his tongue demanded entrance, she acquiesced, happily, adding to the sensations curling through her, which filled her with heat, bright and addicting. Unable to contain the spreading forest fire inside her, she moaned, then whimpered, grasping onto Lucian’s tattered shirt to keep herself standing.
He growled and maneuvered her until her back was pressed against the door behind her, his hips pinning hers as his mouth strayed to her neck and his hands roamed, discovering her peaks and valleys.
“Lucian,” she moaned, tilting her head to give him more access. “I love you, too,” she said. “So much.”
Lucian dragged his mouth from her skin and pressed his forehead to hers. “Say it again.”

Lover of stories.
Maci Aurora has been writing stories since she was a child. When she was eleven, she fell in love with reading Sunfire Historical Romances about girls who made a difference in their lives and still fell in love. In high school, a friend introduced her to Lavyrle Spencer and Judith McNaught, and from there, her writing journey was cemented in telling stories about love. Having already published many novels (all of which are threaded with romance as upper YA and New Adult titles) under the pen name, CL Walters, Maci Aurora wanted to write stories that offered the same attention to story and characters but with additional steam.
Maci writes in Hawaiʻi where she lives with her husband, their children, and their fur-babies.
