I am a huge fan of The Mortal Instruments series, and am eagerly awaiting the release next year of the 4th book in the series, City of Fallen Angels , so imagine my surprise when Cassandra twitted an excerpt from City of Fallen Angels . Well I squealed and then I squealed some more when I read it, it’s HOT! Enjoy …
Clary made a surprised noise, but didn’t protest, even when Jace lifted her up and carried her over to the bed.
They sprawled onto it together, crushing some of the letters, Jace knocking the box itself aside to make room for them. His heart was hammering against the inside of his ribs. They had never been in bed together like this before, not really — there had been that night in her room in Idris, but they had barely touched. Jocelyn was careful never to let either of them spend the night where the other one lived. She didn’t care much for him, Jace suspected, and he could hardly blame her. He doubted her would have liked himself much, in her position.
“I love you,” Clary whispered. She had his shirt off, and her fingertips were tracing the scars on his back, and the star-shaped scar on his shoulder than was the twin of her own, a relic of the angel whose blood they both shared. “I don’t ever want to lose you.” He slid his hand down her cheek, to her throat, to the top button of her blouse.
I told you it’s HOT. I can’t wait till next year it’s so far away I need more Jace, Clary, Alec, Isabelle and Simon, ah well I guess good things come to those who wait.
Thanks Cassie for this little tidbit!
Oh man, I have got to get my hands on this series. I have still not read this book. Reading this has convinced me that I must, must, must get this book!
ReplyDeleteI'm seriously in love with this excerpt. I think I've read it 100 times now, from when Mundie Mom's posted it on their blog a couple days ago. Why, oh why, is March so far away???
ReplyDeletePhew. That is hot!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to read more!
