Book excerpt: Concealing her own considerable magical powers, Caitlyn enters the service of the northern Witch Queen masquerading as a simple healer. Under order from her goddess, she’s searching for a magical gem stolen long ago from her own people, believed to be hidden in the massive castle. The task is daunting but Caitlyn is sure she can locate the gem and escape, bringing the prize back to the temple where it belongs. Until she meets the captive shifter and her loyalties become dangerously divided. In payment for her past services to his people, Kyler the leopard shifter has entered into a life of servitude far from his forest home, allowing the Witch Queen to tap his magic to power her ever darker spells. Factions at Court are threatening to turn the Queen to the Shadow. Her increasing demands for magic will cut short his nearly immortal lifespan. Kyler’s resigned to his fate until the day he crosses paths with the new arrival, whose secrets and magic entice and attract both man and leopard. Has he met his mate at last? The Queen will never willingly release him from captivity. Caitlyn’s goddess refuses to grant her any delay in accomplishing her own task. Can they locate the magical gem, fight the Shadow and win free of the Witch Queen to earn the right to be together?

I’m lost out in the woods when I cross paths with a strange man. He offers to take me back to his campsite, feed me, get me warm, but every instinct in me screams NO! He is an opportunistic predator, and I am his prey. I run. He chases. And just before I’m traumatized for life, I hear a loud roar as a seven hundred pound Grizzly bear rips the man off me and mauls him to death. So…. Team Bear? If only it were so simple. This isn’t just any normal bear. He’s a bear shifter, and he’s convinced I’m his fated mate. I appreciate the life saving and all, but I have goals and dreams, and I won’t allow fate to play matchmaker for me, no matter how otherwise appealing the shifter in question may be.

Book excerpt: Sherrie never thought she'd need her chatting-up skills to play along with a hot, sexy kidnapper who rants about were-animals and psychic possession. Then he proves his story by changing into a wolf before her eyes. John's mission is desperate. The pack seer insists Sherrie is the only one who can save his pack from a rash of mysterious comas. His connection with Sherrie is instant, powerful and beyond rational explanation. And then a third piece of the puzzle enters the picture. Grant follows his instincts only to find his prize in the hands of his rival. He's poised for battle—until he learns his panther shifter clan suffers the same fate as John's pack. But there's more. When the three of them touch, the primal, erotic power surge swells like the waves of an earthquake. Sherrie's hands—and bed—are suddenly full, figuring out how to manage two snarling alpha males. And channel her new-found power before a villain uses it to destroy them all…

Book excerpt: Book 8 of Shifters Forever Worlds Box Set Grizzly bear shifters, dragon shifters, sorceresses, elementals, and all types of other paranormal beings and their mates steam up the pages as the Bear Canyon Valley clan sorts through trespassers with hidden agendas, hidden military compounds, top secret experiments, and courageous, incredible women who are ready to take a chance on their happily forever after. The romances in this collection will capture your heart and leave your head spinning! Confusion Once, before Griz was known as Griz, he was Larsen del Cruz. This was before he had a scar that split his face, eyebrow to jaw. When he was one of the Draecenguard. He was also a man who fell in love. Forbidden love. That love gave him a scar and nearly cost him his life. It definitely cost him more than that. The full effects of that loss lasted years. It’s still lasting. Allegra Draecen has known only one way of life. Leaving that life behind was not an easy decision. Nor was it one she came to quickly. She can only hope her choice does not endanger those she loves or those she left behind. Decision A mission at the top secret Razorpeak Mountain Complex has completely flipped Ciara’s life upside down. Daughter of an intuitive and a bear shifter descendant, Ciara is an intuitive herself. And she has a problem she can’t explain and definitely can’t solve. Ciara hadn’t counted on her cousin Griz, driven by concern, stopping at nothing to help out his little cousin. Krisztián’s been asked to assist Griz’s cousin with a problem. What problem? Griz doesn’t even know. So, with a GPS set for her home, Krisztián heads out. Possession Shifter Slate Youngblood’s got one mission. Stay alive and avoid the feds. Svetlana’s a seer with a haunted past. A skilljacker on the lam runs into a beautiful, haunted seer. On any other day, this could have been a match made in heaven, but not when he steals her skills. And definitely not when she takes his bear. Illusion Meri’s a forensic pathologist with a spectacular arrangement with Notre Dame University—practically unlimited access to funds and a paid position to perform her dream research. Deathbending bear shifter Dunnigan Youngblood’s got a hell of a problem. He’s got to sneak out of a morgue before someone decides to cut into him. Too late. Passion Matteo Berberis, dragon shifter, has not been adjusting very well to life away from the Pontic Mountains. Sure, he lives in Bear Canyon Valley, and he’s got freedoms he never had before, but his dragon is angry. He misses their home country. What’s a dragon shifter to do when shifting into his dragon—and running off is not an option. Not in a world where dragons are hunted. When did the apex predator of all shifter types become the hunted? He gives his dragon his head and they roam, flying over Bear Canyon Valley regularly. This day was anything but regular though. He’s come across a beautiful stranger with a problem. He’d have thought he could provide help until he had a problem of his own. Stuck mid-shift, he finds himself at her mercy and at the mercy of those hunting her. Jolie Anker’s harboring a secret that could bring doom to the Bear Canyon Valley clan. Impression Salvatore Draecen has received word about a sorceress being held captive in Crossroads. A sorceress, that word has it, looks way too much like the love of his life. Selene Campione has been a prisoner for more years than she can count. Truly. More years than she can remember. Devoid of her powers and memories, she’s been in a muddled state of mind, the victim of experimentation at the hands of the group at Crossroads. Now, as fate would have it, her powers are returning. And so are the painful memories. The last time she saw Salvatore, he was on another continent, safe and sound.
