Weekend Writing Warriors-Tangled Redemption Snippet 16
Welcome to the Weekend Writing Warriors. Each Sunday we share 8 sentences from a current or finished manuscript. Click here for the rest of the amazing writers participating.
I’d planned to move on to new project, but then I realised that Tangled Redemption, book 4 in the Celestial Surrender series, releases in a week and a half and decided to continue sharing for a couple more weeks;).
Today’s snippet is a few pages after last week’s. Sydney, now Miguel and Jayden’s “pet” finds herself alone in a room with them, but things are not as she anticipated. We are in her point of view.
“How is this going to work?” Their behavior did not match her expectations. Where she’d anticipated force she’d found calm.
Jayden took her hand and she let him. “I know Nasir—and you—expected our encounter to be filled with violence,” he shook his head. “I find voluntary submission much more erotic.” He turned to Miguel, “Don’t you?” Challenge echoed through his words despite his even tone.
Tangled Redemption releases next Wednesday and I’m hugely excited (and somewhat stressed out;).
The last couple of months have been exhausting. If you have any suggestions on how to clear your mind and refocus your attention please share. I need all the help I can get;).
Have an amazing week and as always Happy Writing!
Here is the blurb:
Sydney Radnall is no man’s toy, despite fate’s attempt to make her just that. A kidnapping puts her at the mercy of a sadistic Feral commander. Being held prisoner is bad enough, but her Naema blood is powerful. In her current Vampiric company her presence is like ringing a dinner bell.
In an attempt to break the commander makes her the pet of two of his lieutenants. Miguel is one of the most dangerous men she has ever met, but she can’t stop the attraction blazing between them. Then there is Jayden, a Vampire who is as surprising as he is sexy. Two Vampires she should not be attracted to, should not want to surrender to, should not trust.
But things aren’t always what they seem. Secrets and lies shadow their connections, making it impossible to see clearly. What are the chances of her finding lifemates while surrounded by enemies? And making the wrong decision could not just shatter her heart. It could cost her life.

Yes, yes, yes. no rape , make love like real people do. Hi Tina. So good.
Lol, thank you, Charmaine;).
Whew. I’m relieved they’re going to be nice. Or nice-ish, at least. Bad in a good way? You know what I mean. :p Nice eight!
Oh, there will definitely a touch of badness, Christina, but it will be consensual;). Thank you.
A man who knows what he wants, but doesn’t feel the need to force her. Love it.
He definitely knows what he wants;).
Love the challenge in Jayden’s voice. Still anxiously waiting to hear what Miguel has to say about it. Because I’m me (writer of m/m romance) I’m very intrigued as to how these two alphas are going to get along.
Lol, I hope their story will live up to the expectations;).
Very curious to see how the three of them work this out.
So are they, Eleri;).
You do such a good job keeping the heroine (and us) off balance and wondering what will happen next. Excellent excerpt and best wishes on the book’s release.
Thank you for the compliment and the kind wishes, Veronica.
I do! I do! 😀
Add me to the list of the readers waiting to see what happens next, Tina—and hoping for an even earlier book release!
Lol, let’s hope Miguel agrees with you, Sarah;).
Congratulations on the upcoming release!! Love the dynamics in the snippet, it shows character as well as cranking up the sexual tension!!
Thank you, Elsa.
Oh that really took me by surprise but in a very sexy and sensual way. Good luck on the release but I doubt you’ll need it!
Thank you, Catherine. You can never have too much luck;).
It’s still some bad stuff, but at least it’s not worse stuff. I wish her luck!
Things are going to go a little topsy-turvy before they settle down, so she can definitely use the luck;).
Nice little twist. But I bet they push consent to the edge.
I try not to push consent, but I’m sure the readers will tell me if I did.
