Book Description:
Amaranta Costa uses her
Kanima as an avoidance tactic, until the one person she cherishes most is taken
from her. When Gavin Ford enters the fray uninvited, she’s forced to accept the
help of his pack to find her mate.
Trusting others isn’t her
forte. Though her inner jaguar accepts him hands down, the woman in her fights
his dominating, take-control nature. Unlike Marisol’s soft personality, Gavin’s
wolf challenges her at every turn. She can find no escape. His abrasiveness both
sets her on edge and pleases her. She finds being in Marisol’s arms isn’t
enough; the all-consuming need to be his burns to her core. There’s no denying
the chemical attraction arcing among the three of them.
Will she reach out, and
accept the love and support waiting for her?
Excerpt:
The raucous wails intensified and the crunch of tires entering her
private drive grew louder. Amara pressed on, breaking through the foliage into
her large back yard to see uniformed officers walking the perimeter of her
house.
“Excuse me?” Amara padded across her
back yard, aware of her nudity and one enforcement officer leering at her. The
other looked uncomfortable. Humans.
Why do they find nudity unacceptable, since everyone born into the world came
without clothes? How she hated the restricting fibers and longed to live in
nothing but her skin. Maybe a blanket for times when the cold bit into her,
chilling her to the bone.
“Ma’am, your alarm system activated. We
called and no one answered. Are you harmed?”
“No, not at all.” She crossed her arms
under her breasts. Their eyes roved over her and the one speaking seemed to
lose his voice. They appeared confused as to why she paraded around like she
did.
“Sir, the house is clear.”
“I’m sure it was just a false alarm.”
Amara whipped her head to the left, addressing the female officer entering
through her veranda doors.
“Are you certain? We found your front
door wide open when we pulled up the drive. The perpetrator may still be in the
area. Ma’am, would you mind putting on some clothes?”
Of course there wasn’t an intruder in
the house; she’d feel the presence. She weighed the probability of Mari
forgetting to lock up behind herself. No other lingering scents clung in the
air. No dark aura. Seething in anger at her girlfriend’s lack of awareness, she
stalked to her door, leaving the officers to follow her indoors. “I do mind
dressing on my own property. I like being naked—”
“Still, ma’am…talking to you’d be a lot
easier if you wore clothing.”
“For fuck’s sake.” Amara glared at the
unwanted guests.
“She’ll put on some clothes if I have
to drag her to her room myself and dress her.” Gavin’s authoritative voice
entered into the standoff.
“I will not. This is my place. If they
don’t like my appearance they can leave.” Amara whipped around and stared down
Gavin’s steel wall of unwanted authority. “What are you doing here?” She’d
never seen the man anywhere but at The Delightful Kitty. In his cargo pants and
T-shirt, he looked damn good standing in her house.
“Heard the call on my scanner. Wanted
to check on you and Mari. Go put on some clothes, babe. I’ll keep the five-oh
company.”
Amara opened her mouth to speak and
switched outlets.
How do you know where I live?
Drake told me. Now go put on some clothes. Though I don’t mind
staring at you, not one bit.
