Promenade
(The Dark Nocturne, #3)
By Morgan Shamy

When time isn’t on your side…

With Vincent gone, November is left exposed. Having lost everyone she loves, she’s desperate to find a new life. It could’ve been possible—until a group of Shadow Fae who blames her for Vincent’s death. Now, her only chance at survival is to deliver to them a live Vincent or face her own fate. Problem is, the dead can’t be brought back to life. So her only choice is to travel back in time and find him.

In London, 1901, Vincent and November reunite. But he isn’t who she thought he was. He’s a rake, an aristocrat, with no recollection of her. But that isn’t all her troubles. A Shadow Wraith is on her back, trying to take her back to her own time, and the Shadow Fae are still hunting her down. November must find a way to make Vincent remember who she is and change the future, before time, and her death catches up with her.

EXCERPT

The music ceased, and a new song begun. The melody pulsed with a strong first beat of three, slow and intricate, the different harmonies weaving together. 

The waltz. 

No. 

Her heart sped, beating in time with the beat. 

She couldn’t dance this dance with him. 

Vincent placed one hand behind her back, his palm flat against her bare skin, and stretched her other arm out to the side, pulling her in close. His back was straight, his eyes connected with hers. 

The dancers around them started the waltz, and he started his own steps, leading her around the room. The intimate dance pulled them closer together, bringing them inches apart. 

“You ran off last night without a word,” he said, voice low. “I’m sorry, but I’ve never had such a thing happen to me before. A lady climbing up the side of my house, appearing in my bedroom, only to disappear without a word. There had to be a great reason, and now I’m intrigued.” 

His stare cut to her core, and she could barely find her voice. “I… I got the wrong house,” she said. 

He let out a soft chuckle. “I highly doubt that. You called me Vincent.” 

Her lips tightened. “Fine, I did want to speak with you. But I didn’t think you’d be consorting in such… awful behaviors.” 

His brows lifted together. “Awful? My dear, have you never spent time alone with someone you fancied? I’d hardly describe that as awful.”

She has been immersed in the arts since the young age of 4, where she performed various roles alongside a professional ballet company for over seven years, and has danced on prestigious stages like soloing at Carnegie Hall in New York City.

Morgan discovered writing when her three-year-old son was diagnosed with cancer. It was through that experience which instilled the need to share art and magic with children through words on the page.
