Book excerpt: His Stubborn Mate The Ward Wolf Pack Novella Series Book 2 Mason Ward has spent the last eleven years, learning to fly planes in the Alaskan wild, delivering supplies to those who lived off the grid and hikers looking for the thrill of going at it on their own. But, as a white wolf and a hunted shifter, he lives his life in solitude. Charlie Hines has applied to every place she can think of, looking for a job as a bush pilot. She knows the backcountry better than anyone else and has the resume to prove it. When she steps through the doors of Ward Air & Transportation, she knows she has found the place she belongs, but there’s one complication. Mason’s wolf wants nothing more than to tuck Charlie under his arm and run away with her, but the stubborn pilot won’t give in when she finally realizes his true nature. Word from the lower forty-eight has informed the humans about shifters, but she could care less what he is. In fact, she would rather fly planes and deliver supplies than allow him to touch her.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Carrie Ann Ryan comes a new story in her Redwood Pack series… The war between the Redwood Pack and the Centrals is one of wolf legend. Gina Eaton lost both of her parents when a member of their Pack betrayed them. Adopted by the Alpha of the Pack as a child, Gina grew up within the royal family to become an enforcer and protector of her den. She’s always known fate can be a tricky and deceitful entity, but when she finds the one man that could be her mate, she might throw caution to the wind and follow the path set out for her, rather than forging one of her own. Quinn Weston’s mate walked out on him five years ago, severing their bond in the most brutal fashion. She not only left him a shattered shadow of himself, but their newborn son as well. Now, as the lieutenant of the Talon Pack’s Alpha, he puts his whole being into two things: the safety of his Pack and his son. When the two Alphas put Gina and Quinn together to find a way to ensure their treaties remain strong, fate has a plan of its own. Neither knows what will come of the Pack’s alliance, let alone one between the two of them. The past paved their paths in blood and heartache, but it will take the strength of a promise and iron will to find their future. **Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pack is made up of many members. And each of those members has his or her own story to tell. The following is a collection of four stories of the Romanian Greys and their allies. Sacred Silence I thought nothing could be eviler than Desdemona, or Reyaz, or any other villain we’ve faced down. I was wrong. I read all the books I could devour on the beauty of parenthood. I thought I was ready. But nothing could have prepared me for the hurricane of jacked-up emotional chaos otherwise known as post-partum hormones. ~Jen Resounding Silence Duty, sacrifice, service, and discipline. These were the characteristics that described Cyn, the warrior fae. Though love was out of her reach, she thought this life was all she needed. She had never been more wrong. A chance meeting with the Prince of the Elves turns her carefully structured world upside down. Piercing Silence It’s been six months since Jacque Lupei was imprisoned in the dark forest with her female pack mates, wondering if they would ever see their mates again. Six months since she and Fane found out that Jen and Decebel would not be the only couple adding a new pup to the pack. Six months of peace and quiet...other than Jen running her mouth incessantly about Sally getting to go on an adventure with Peri while she has to miss all the fun. When she isn’t complaining about that, she spends her time commenting on how Jacque’s butt is getting wider by the minute. Jacque doesn’t know it, but the reprieve was about to be over. Forgotten Silence Filthy. Disgusting. Unworthy trash. The same thoughts keep swirling in Sally's mind. She's broken and no one can fix her--not her friends, try as they might, and not her beautiful mate. She'd thought when Costin had rescued her from Jericho's clutches, broken the spell the rogue werewolf had cast on her, and left the cur lying in bloody pieces on the floor of an Ocean Side bar, that one day she might find some peace. Perhaps, with time, she could forget the horrible things she'd done. Perhaps she could forget how she had betrayed her one true mate. Now, several weeks later, the memories and the nightmares have only grown stronger.

Book excerpt: What reader's say about Michelle Fox's werewolves: "I love how well the characters are developed and rounded out - I feel like I know about these characters before they jump in the sack - which for me is a HUGE deal!" "Fox adeptly weaves several enchanting love scenes into her romance framework. Best of all, they actually add to the story." "This is the third shifter story I've read from this author, and I love the edge of humor, the way she introduces the problems of the pack, and the wolfish behavior that sneaks into the human interaction." Little known fact about being a werewolf: There are always wolves at your door and some of them are up to no good. Chloe Weiss' dreams have finally come true: She's a null no more, her wolf has finally come. She's now a full member of her pack in the remote Appalachian 'weretown' of Hunstville. Even better, she's mated to the pack's next alpha, Jackson Swift. However, now that she's on the other side of her happy ending, things aren't quite as rosy as she'd expected. The women of her pack resent her status as alpha's mate and suddenly there are rumors that Chloe is an Omega, a werewolf so weak they are banned from ever mating. Worse, an old friend of Jackson's blows into town full of disapproval....and competition. It seems no one likes Chloe except Jackson. Then women start disappearing, violently kidnapped from their homes and never heard from again. There's a killer on the loose in the small town of Huntsville, and the one wolf he'd do anything to have is Chloe. Now Chloe will have to fight...for Jackson, her place in the pack, and her life. This novel is a sequel to the bestselling To Bring Her Wolf.

Book excerpt: Rain left her old life to find a fresh start. But a wolf shifter mate wasn't exactly what she was expecting… A new name, a new job, a new life—far from the dangers of her old one. Then Laurent walked into her restaurant and changed everything. The second-in-command for the Cherchez Wolf Pack, Laurent didn't expect to find his destiny in a roadside café. But there's no doubt in his mind that waitress-by-day, artist-by-night Rain is his mate. And the urge to be near her, to protect her, to have her is intoxicating. An unbelievably hot night leaves them both wanting more. But more with Laurent comes with an introduction to his extended family—of werewolves. Learning that supernatural beings are real is a shock, but becoming one turns out to be the best decision she's made in her new life. No matter how good things are with Laurent and the pack, Rain can't run from her old life forever. When a threat on the horizon tests the life they're building together, Rain will have to prove that her place is with the Cherchez wolves—no matter who says otherwise.

Book excerpt: Centuries of tradition have bound your soul to ours so tightly that neither time nor trial will ever be able to separate us. In Book One of the Wolf Pack Series: Kit has avoided her parents increasing pressure to marry for years. Granted, her shifter parents refer to it as mating, but Kit isn't one to split hairs over semantics and the results will be the same. She'll lose her freedom and the idea of answering to an Alpha doesn't appeal to her in the least. Kit also knows that mating will bring on her magical powers and those come with some hefty baggage. After seeing the burden the powers have been to her mother and grandmother, Kit is in no hurry to join in the never-ending battles between good and evil. However, an evening of dancing with a friend ends Kit's hope of avoiding her destiny. Jameson and Trevlon Wolf traveled the world looking for their mate and almost gave up finding her when she walks into their New York City dance club. However, they quickly discover that convincing her to give them one week to prove that being their mate won't be the end of the world was the easy part-protecting her was going to be a lifelong challenge.

Becoming the mate of Alpha werewolf Adam Hauptman has made her a stepmother to his daughter Jesse, a relationship that brings moments of blissful normalcy to Mercy’s life. But on the edges of humanity, what passes for a minor mishap on an ordinary day can turn into so much more... After a traffic accident in bumper-to-bumper traffic, Mercy and Jesse can’t reach Adam—or anyone else in the pack. They’ve all been abducted. Mercy fears Adam’s disappearance may be related to the political battle the werewolves have been fighting to gain acceptance from the public—and that he and the pack are in serious danger. Outmatched and on her own, Mercy may be forced to seek assistance from any ally she can get, no matter how unlikely. *The Nocturnal Library

Book excerpt: The full moon is their mistress. They are predators of pleasure and pain. Feared by humans, envied by werewolves, the Dire wolves are immortal shifters, obeying no laws but their own bestial natures. Once they were many, but now only eight remain, a dangerous wolfpack forever on the hunt… The supernatural world is rising up against the human one. The weretrappers want to control the humans, and only the immortal Dire wolves stand in the way of total destruction. Stray, a Dire, and his long-lost brother, Killian, emerge as the leaders of their pack. To keep themselves and the humans safe, the Dires must find a witch as powerful as the one who has been helping the weretrappers. They find what they are looking for in Kate, a human who survived a horrible car accident that left her back scarred with a handprint no one else is able to see. Stray senses in Kate the powers of a witch and recruits her to help the Dires—all the while knowing that she is so powerful that they will need to kill her once she helps defeat the weretrappers. Stray doesn’t expect the powerful connection that he feels with Kate, or his irresistible need to protect her. They cannot hide their feelings for each other, and what once was taboo now seems inevitable...
