Prince's Courtesan (16 page)

“Oh…that. Well, I figure I need to add a little…persuasion to the mix.”

He leaned forward to tease her lips with his. “Can’t have you saying no, now can we?” He paused, realizing what he’d said. She’d said no before. “Oh shit, that wasn’t a threat—”

Her fingertips on his lips cut him off. “Seth?”

“Hmm?”

“I love you. I always have. Now, shut up and make love to me.”

Mina Carter was born and raised in Middle Earth (otherwise known as the Midlands, England). After a slew of careers ranging from logistics to land surveying she can now be found in the wilds of Leicestershire with her real-life hero and their young daughter…the true boss of the family. Suffering the curse of eternal curiosity Mina never tires of learning new skills which has led to Aromatherapy, Corsetry, Chain-maille making, Welding, Canoeing, Shooting, and pole-dancing to name but a few. She juggles being a mum, working full time and writing, tossing another ball in the air with her cover artwork.

For Mina, writing time is the wee hours of the morning before anyone wakes up and starts making demands or any spare minute that can be begged, bought or conned. Her first stories were penned at age 11, when she used a stationery set meant for Christmas thank you letters to write stories instead.

More recently, she wrote for her own amusement and to save on outrageous monthly book bills. Now she’s totally addicted and needs her daily writing fix or heads roll.
