Rory had seen her glance to her right. He knew what she kept there, and he could tell from the golden gleam in her eyes and the dilation of her pupils what her body was going through. He could tell from her shallow breaths, barely making her chest rise, yet still pushing p...
Mac felt him, and the effect of that on her body was bad. Very bad. Then she saw him and bad was redefined. With one glance, her defenses, her fortifications, her everything and her anything were shattered—splintered into a m...
She left her in Giovanni Tiero’s hands with the promise that she’d “be back in a day.” I hope. It was the only way, Ana realized. And the Tiero didn’t have a bad reputation. And they had held offices in the Shifter Council at one time and another. &...
The man he’d called father for most of his life. The man who he’d thought was dead for more than a decade. His father was holding Raiza’s child, hoisted, comforting him. Finn let go of Raiza, his arms and hands useless, numb from shock. The two Kormic who’d originally brou...
Giovanni! She’d sunk her fangs deeply into his body, trying to seek purchase, to deliver a wound that would secure her a victory. That was before she knew it was Giovanni. Before she could taste the flavor of his blood on her tongue. What the hell w...
Doc had suggested she stay in bed until he said otherwise. So she did. On the second day, she’d asked about Ben. Asked about leaving. “Soon.” Mae said. “Ben and his men are gone.” “By gone you mean…” A...
Then it hit him. Holy hell. He was in his bear. He didn’t remember shifting. He didn’t remember anything. A low grumbling growl rumbled in his chest. He shook his bear head. He inhaled again. Hay? Why ...
Last night, when she’d arrived at the B&B, there were no other vehicles in sight. Teague had stayed gone. A pang struck at her, sadness tinged with a bit of envy and hope that no one else was with him. She’d set her alarm for early and had gotten dressed to be ready fo...
Her father had never liked flowers. He thought they were a waste of money. And he never saw the point of putting flowers on graves. So she wasn’t going to take him flowers. She put the chewing tobacco in the same bag that had the fishing lures she’d taken out of Dad’s tackle box. She’d also taken...
Leandra told her grandmother, Latrice Mathieu. “She’s your mother, chère.” “Then why did she drop me off with you and never comes to see me? Why does it feel like she can’t wait to leave when we go meet her in the café?” Mémé...
Panther shifter Carina put the documents on the coffee table in front of her. She’d read them three times. And three times she found the same answer. Her panther roared in her head, the sound more like a cry of pain. My baby was not stillborn. ...
His leopard told him right away something was off. Maybe even wrong. Sitting up on the couch, several things struck his shifter senses. The first was the scent of Glory. Everything Glory. He let her sc...
Her leg. It was missing. Both thighs were beautiful, full and wonderfully curvy, but one stopped just above the knee, where the leg was replaced with a prosthetic. Why wouldn’t she tell me? He’d asked her what she’d been up t...
All he’d given her was “I’ll pick you up at five.” He couldn’t do it. He couldn’t arrest the woman he loved, the panther his bear called mate. He’d gone to visit Uncle Mikhail, laid out the barest of facts. Told his uncle he was in love with a woman...
She was given a room on the third floor with the other lesser witches—as they were called during whispered conversations. Ilse had demanded Fiona’s cell phone that first night, claiming she’d have it adjusted so the GPS tracking was misdirected, and then she’d return it to...
Please. Please. Please. Natalya sent silent prayers to any entity that might listen and grant her prayer that Ms. Claudette hadn’t died. She pulled into the shelter’s parking lot, scrambled out and locked her car. She was still in her party dress. T...
