Paranormal Romance Wednesdays- A Sneak Look At My New Erotic Shifter Romance



I am writing a new erotic shifter romance that I'm really excited about.  And though it's not finished, I still want to share a snippet with you!

It's still very rough and not proofed so please forgive the **ahem** mistakes.  But here it is...



My Untitled Shifter Romance


Samantha Dixon felt the power of the full moon surge through her body.  She drew in its energy, closed her eyes and howled. The wind flowing down the mountains rustled her fir. She thanked the Goddess for the a beautiful night. Its peace made her grateful to be alive despite the loneliness she had endured during the years.  She breathed in the cool crisp air enjoying as it whipped around her.  

She lifted her muzzle and sniffed the air.  A coppery scent filled her nose.  She ran towards it.  Her nerves tingled as muscles twitched in anticipation.  She approached a figure laying on the ground. A man wearing nothing but a hoodie over a shirt along with a pair of jeans and gym shoes, he did not appear to be the average hiker.  For one thing, he'd be better equipped wearing something a bit warmer for the cool nights that were indicative of the Black Hills.  

Described as an island of trees in a sea of grass, the cool valley nestled within the northern hills was peppered with Spruce.  Though she preferred it to the dry pine savannah to the south, her parents had always told her that the spirit of the Earth was at its strongest on this ground. They said on its skirt graveled terrain the goddess fully nourished the lives of all wolf kind including their non-were kin. 

It recent years it seemed as if the goddess had averted her gaze from this sacred land. First with the obliteration of the large game animals in the region by the humans causing wolves also known as naturals by weres to leave the area, then second the madness that consumed her pack's former alpha.  His cruelty was out matched only by his insanity.  She had considered moving but had decided against it because this was the one place in the world where she had called home with her true love.

Meet My Character Monday Blog Hop- Reid DeWitt- Reluctant Alpha Leader



Meet Reid Dewitt- an alpha who is reluctant about his role as pack leader.

He lives in Michigan and owns a ranch that he has inherited from his father.  Reid is fifty but looks thirty four. 

A lover more than a fighter- Reid can more than hold his own in a fight but would prefer to talk first because it's just his way.  

His story is the first in a series that takes place on his ranch.  

Here is an excerpt (unedited)...

As they pulled up to the ranch.  He saw his friend waiting for him.  Pulling up beside him, Reid lowered the driver's side window.  

“How is she?”

“I think it's broken.”

“Drive her over to the clinic it's all set up.  Cassie's waiting.”

“Yep.”

He drove them over to their small clinic.  One of the first things that he added on when he took over the general running of the ranch, it was now fully stocked with everything a ranch hand could need from medical equipment like a couple of exam tables and an X-Ray machine, to medicines including a small pharmacy.  Something they needed on occasion. 

Since the nearest town was at least an hour away, it was helpful to have in case they ever needed.  Weres needed doctors just like everyone else but not always for the same ailments.  
“Don't worry miss,” Cassie said opening the door.  “We'll take real good care of you.”

“I think I can make it,” she said sliding down on to her good foot.  He watched as she wrapped her arm around Cassie's neck, attempting to hop and walk at the same time.

“Allow me,” Sumner said approaching.

Reid held out his hand.  “I got it,” he said lifting her into his arms and taking her inside.  He set her down on the exam table.  

“It'll be alright,” Cassie said gesturing for him to leave the two alone.  

Suddenly feeling exhausted he stepped outside.  The sun shone brightly.  It had been a perfect day, he hadn't had a care in the world. But  now, he was concerned.  

“Sir? What about the truck?” one of his ranch hands asked.

“Park it on the back drive way. I suspect, she won't be going any where tonight,” Reid said handing the man her keys.

“I hear we have a guest,” his father said walking toward him.

“Word travels fast.”

“What can I say? We don't get too much excitement around here,” his father replied.

“I saw her over near the Red Oak.  She stumbled on a rock, hurt her ankle. The doctor is taking a look at it now.”

“I'll have Iris set up the guest room.  I suspect she'll be too tired to drive.  Plus the sun will be going down and it wouldn't be proper to have her out a driving by herself that late.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Son, you alright?”

“Yep.”

His father slapped him on the back.  “Let's get as much work done as we can before dinner.”

He knew his father was right.  There was tons to do but he didn't want to leave her.

“She'll be fine,” his father prompted gently.

My Sexy Saturday -- A Moment Too Hot To Contain





Welcome to My Sexy Saturday. Today I present to you a Sexy excerpt from one of my favorite leading male heroes, Marine Colonel Medoro Keegan. He is a strong a determined man, who's had his heart broken before. But when Caitlin enters his life, he believes he is ready to let her in. Their chemistry is undeniable and their love is forbidden. Will they overcome the odds?


Excerpt



Keegan paused, trying not to stumble over his words. “I’d like to apologize for my behavior the other day. It was unprofessional and uncalled for.”





It wasn’t much of an apology but it was all he could muster at the moment. Shifting his weight from one foot to the other, he wondered if she would become emotional and demand an answer for what had taken place? Or scream sexual harassment…. He braced himself, waiting for a response.





“I’m glad it happened," Caitlin replied.





Shocked, his eyes widened and his pulse quickened. He swallowed, forcing moisture into his dry throat. Her frank words hit him deep. The hole his wife left in his heart ached, almost killing him inside. Relationships, attachment, belonging to someone, needing another—those feelings were supposed to have been dead along with his wife. And here they were again, rearing their ugly head. Women were too dangerous to love because they wound up abandoning you, leaving you to face life alone.





He glanced at his left hand. He used to wear his gold wedding band as a tribute to the love he and his wife shared. Then it became a constant reminder that she was gone. Now he wondered if he was ready to have a ring on that finger again. Fear entered his heart.





“I’m not sure I am,” he replied, softly.





“I really am.” The sincerity in her voice was evident. “It was the first time I felt alive since I’ve been here, and I don’t regret it one bit.”





He didn’t know what to say. His first clash with her had distracted him to the point of madness. It had been some time since he’d had such a powerful encounter with a woman. The last one to push his buttons that hard, he wound up marrying.





Caitlin was stubborn, mouthy, somewhat insubordinate, and filled with an innate force he had not seen in sometime. She had no problem in standing up for who or what she believed in. He didn’t like the feelings she stirred in him. He dare not consider them. Especially with her. She was a subordinate and a cryo. It was against regulations for him to even think of starting anything with her.





He shifted his stance. His heart pounded in his ears and breaths quickened. “Ms. Driskoll. I don’t know what you expect from me.”





“Nothing more than I expect from myself.”





Before he knew it, he crossed the distance between them and swept her into a searing kiss. He caressed her body, touching every curve. Arousal sped through his body like lightening causing his cock to swell and become rigid. He dug his fingers in her hair and hungrily dominated her mouth, his tongue delving in, playing with hers. Gripping her waist, he lifted her up and placed on her the table. She arched her neck exposing her creamy skin. He nipped and bit at it enjoying its smoothness. He reached up and caressed her breasts, a need filling him to see them, taste them.
