“I
don’t like him. Dangerous
fellow—not for you.”
“He wants you,” Otto pronounced after a moment’s
silence.
“Do you think so? I do not,” she returned on a
laugh. “He would not provoke my friends if he wanted to curry favor
with me.”
“You are naïve,” the count said and clucked his
tongue. “Just look at how he attends you. I have never seen him
behave like that with any marriageable chit before. He is forever
seeking you out and paying you considerable notice.”
“You are mistaken. Sir Edward is not interested in
me. For goodness sake, I have been out two seasons, so why should
he suddenly decide to take an interest now? It doesn’t make
sense.”
“Just a moment, my girl … as I recall, Sir
Edward was in Greece during your first season. He doesn’t hunt—so
he wasn’t with us when we all went up to the riding country and the
Quorn.”
“But I was introduced to him last spring, and I
can’t remember his succumbing to my many charms then.” She laughed
and patted Otto’s arm.
“Obstinate,” he said and tweaked her nose. “A man
sometimes has to find his sea legs. No doubt he just wasn’t ready
then … but as he saw more and more of you …”
She batted her lashes at him. “He was overtaken and
his heart stolen …” she said dramatically.
“Mayhap you just don’t want to see, but remember,”
he said, wagging a finger at her, “he means to have you—
but what
is worse
, I think you rather like him.”
“He is ever so attractive, Otto.” She sighed.
“
I
don’t like him. Dangerous fellow—not for
you.”
“Why, do you think he will break my heart?” she
asked curiously.
“No … not that exactly, but he won’t make you
happy. He is not for you. You need someone who will smile at your
antics … perhaps curb you a bit … but never tame
you.”
“Oh, Otto … yes, I know, but who may that be?”
she asked, sighing again.
“Damn if I know,” he answered, and both eyed one
another and laughed.

What reviewers are saying
about Claudy’s books
ShadowLove—Stalkers is hot, Hot, HOT
ShadowLove—Stalkers
is filled with steaming
action and dramatic tension … Claudy delicately plants the seeds
for future development and characters without distracting from the
excitement and romance of Stalkers. The result is that she has a
paranormal, vampire series, of romance novels, which carries her
own unique and spicy aroma.
ShadowLove—Stalkers
is hot, Hot, HOT … and
yes, I am blushing.

Five Cups and a CTTR (Coffee Time Reviewer’s
Recommend) Award
ShadowLove—Stalkers
is a story that
immediately hooks the reader. It reminds me of a roller coaster
just beginning, only to plunge into speed, drawing the reader into
non-stop action. Intense and spellbinding, this paranormal romance
kept this reader engrossed until the conclusion. I loved the
passion and chemistry between the main characters. With tremendous
action and well thought out characters, this fantastic read sizzles
and sparks like a firecracker.

Coffee Time Romance & More
Trapped Legend has my pulse skyrocketing!
A clever, fast paced, unpredictable blend of action,
adventure, mystery, magic and steamy hot loving … I picked it
up and couldn’t tear myself away from it until I read the last
page.
I highly recommend each book in Claudy’s Legend
series. You’re seriously missing out on some wonderful adventures
if you haven’t read the previous stories. It’s by far one of the
most exceptionally crafted, enchanting Fae series I’ve ever
read.
~ Candice Stauffer, author
Five Stars for ShadowHeart—Slayer
This second in Conn’s Shadow series is filled with
vampires, a vampire slayer, demons, wizards, a Fae prince and an
unlikely romance. Claudy Conn does an excellent job of making this
a standalone story while incorporating some of the characters from
the first book and introducing us to several new characters. The
war is still brewing and now the fae are becoming involved. Can’t
wait for the next book in the series.
This is another one I couldn’t put down and read in
a single sitting. I got so caught up in the action I was sad to see
it end. Fans of the paranormal romance, urban fantasy and vampire
genres should enjoy this as well.
~ Wild About Bones
on GoodReads
One hot and thrilling book
I fell for all three of the main characters, fun
loving Maxie, dark and brooding Julian, and one hot Fae, Breslyn.
However, it wasn’t just the characters that kept me on the edge of
my seat, it was the entire involved plot that included jealously,
betrayal, magic, murder, and, of course, hot passion … The
well-written out mixture of myth and legend, not to mention the
characters, all in today’s world has me Joyfully Recommending
Spellbound—Legend
as one book you won’t want to miss.

Fanning the flames of Myriah Fire!
What was once an innocent, if rollicking, regency
romance has exploded with passion as Claudy Conn revisits Myriah
Fire to turn up the heat.
The addition of unbridled sexual passion to Myriah
Fire’s strong story brings dimensions of maturity and depth to the
struggles faced by Myriah and Kit, without diminishing any of the
innocence, joy or charm found in the original story. This revised
version of Myriah Fire allows Claudy’s regency followers to
appreciate what her paranormal romance fans have
discovered—mind-bending eroticism.
A truly captivating tale with a blast of added
sizzle, Myriah Fire will kindle the flames of your heart and burn
up the night.
~ Vonnie Faroqui,
Ink Slinger’s Whimsey
Love, love, love Myriah Fire!
It’s a brilliant, fast-paced, and ‘true to its
title’, ‘going to catch you on fire’ romance. Looking forward to
more! Hoping Claudy Conn plans to share more of her historical
treasures with us.
~ Candice Stauffer, author
Myriah has always been my favorite
This is a sweet, funny, charming romance. The
characters are likeable and the story is well told. I loved all of
the Claudette Williams (now Claudy Conn) books, but this one has
always been my favorite. I hope she will put out more of her
backlist.

Dedication
This one is for my editor, Karen Babcock,
who always makes me smile.
Author’s Note
A reader recently remarked to me that women in the
early 1800s simply did not behave as my heroines do in my regency
novels.
So not true
. This was NOT the Victorian Era.
This was the Regency Era, and during this time, hedonism ruled the
society in which the ‘fashionables’ traveled.
