Excerpt
Leaving the
cinema, hand in hand, we stepped out into the chill of the night. The sun had
descended below the surrounding buildings, leaving the street dimly lit by
lampposts and the bright neon signs hanging above storefronts. The wind blew
light strands of hair across Anson’s forehead. I grinned at him and reached up
to brush his hair back carefully, my fingertips gliding across his forehead
ever so lightly. A shock of something sweet and hot hit me in the chest, making
my breath catch.
Anson’s eyes
darkened almost imperceptibly, and I heard his heartbeat skip unsteadily at my
touch. He raised his hand and gently wrapped his fingers around my wrist,
drawing my palm down his face to his lips. Light as the flutter of a butterfly
wing, he kissed my palm and each of my fingertips. It felt so thrilling, my
whole hand ached to bury itself into his bright hair, and I was distinctly
aware of how close we were standing. All I would have to do was lean up on my
tiptoes and my mouth would meet his. His cobalt eyes fixed me in place, I
couldn’t look away, though I knew I should. I wanted this so badly, but I
couldn’t have it. If I kissed him, I was afraid I’d shatter into a million
pieces, and only he would be able to put me back together.

Author Bio
Interview
Please welcome Defiant author H.G. Lynch to Diane’s Book Blog.
What is your favorite
part of the story, Defiant?
I can’t say a specific scene without giving
spoilers, but let’s just say it’s the ending.
How long did it take
you to write Defiant?
About eight months. I actually finished it on New
Year’s Eve last year, five minutes before midnight, but it sat in my Documents
folder for months.
What is your favorite
book that you wrote?
My favourite is Run. It took me three weeks to write the
first draft because I just couldn’t stop writing. The story flowed so easily
and all the little twists and quirks had me falling in love with the characters
more and more every line I wrote.
Who is your favorite
author and what is it that really strikes you about their work?
Cassandra
Clare. Her books are just so well written and the characters are amazing. You
can’t help falling in love with them.
What is your typical
day like?
I get up around 10am, check my emails, check my book rankings on
Amazon, reply to messages on Facebook, have breakfast, do some writing, watch
TV, do more writing, make some posters for my books, go to bed.
What do you prefer
paperback, hardcover, or ebooks?
Paperback. Nothing beats the smell of ink
and paper.
Do you have anything
specific that you want to say to your readers?
I love you all and thank you!
