BLURB:
Andrea
McNelly's job as a government agent is not asking questions, but then
a routine assignment turns into a botched assassination of a Master
Vampire's human servant. Answers become a priority. Her search to
discover the truth is riddled with obstacles, the largest being an
oversized Werewolf who resembles a Norse god. Andy can't afford the
distraction he offers, because if she fails, she faces eternal
enslavement.
Wick's
job is to monitor Andy, but he prefers more intimate activities, none
of them G-Rated. His choices, however, are often not his own. His
ability to help Andy is limited by his bond to the Master Vampire.
Facing
many trials and challenges along her path to redemption, Andy learns
the value of her freedom might be set too high.

EXCERPT
A large
black wolf trotted into the clearing to confront me. He had a
white-tipped snout, white boots and mitts and would have looked cute
had he not been the most intimidating Werewolf I’d ever seen.
Standing tall and solid, power rolled off of his body. His eyes bore
into mine. I sniffed the air. The strong Werewolf scent of rosemary
swirled around me, strong and seductive, laced with sugar. A weird
fuzzy sensation spread out from my chest. Whoa.
Alpha.
My other
form growled low, demanding release, straining against my skin. The
energy of the wolves built—layers upon layers of excitement and
impatience. The air pulsated with anticipation. They could sense the
imminent kill.
Let me
out! My other form repeated, throwing her power against my built up
walls, howling in defiance.
When the
energy of the Werewolves surged, I finally released her. My wolf form
flowed out fast, wiping out the feline in little more than a
heartbeat. Smaller, weaker and the size of a natural wolf, a Shifter
in this form was no match for a Werewolf, especially a dominant one.
I had time to meet the eyes of the Alpha for only an instant before
the pack leapt forward. My limbs shook. It went against every
instinct ingrained within me, but I rolled onto my back—submissive.

To what do you attribute the popularity of shifter books? They seem to be all the paranormal rage. I've read a few, but there are so many!
ReplyDeleteI think paranormal, URban Fantasy and the fantasy genre in general appeal to readers' desire to escape their every day lives. Escapism at its best. That and there's something super sexy about an alpha male. Those are my top two reasons :-)
DeleteThank you for hosting!
