Werewolves

 

Wolf Mates:
An American Werewolf in Hoboken

No, no... I know what you’re thinking, but don’t let the cover fool you... this is not a BDSM story!! And it ain’t your typical werewolf tale either.

JC Jensen, a hairdresser in Hoboken, New Jersey, is happy living alone and focusing on her career. JC decides that maybe a dog might be a better companion than the boyfriends she’s had, so she heads off to her local animal shelter to find a puppy that needs a home. Like a cute ball of fluff, ya know?

What she comes home with is a beast that the shelter says is part wolf — and destined to die. He’s mean, he's ornery, he has enough fleas to require fumigation, and he’s a hairdresser’s nightmare, but JC is compelled to adopt him. The shelter is amazed when he only responds to her (no surprise for you there I’ll bet). After a trip to PETsMART and a bath, JC dubs her new buddy Fluffy. Fluffy loves steak and hates her ex-boyfriend Jess, which is just fine by JC. He’s her perfect match — so perfect she thinks if only he were a man they could pick out china together.

But Fluffy likes to roam and when he takes off one night JC’s new neighbor Max Adams consoles her by inviting her in for pizza. Max is hot and he has a great head of hair. JC and Max have nothing in common — he’s a country boy and she’s a city girl — but sexually speaking (you knew that was coming, didn’t you?) Max is like no other man she’s met. He does have some peculiarities though…like a strange affinity for red meat, and his allergic reaction to anything silver. All of this has JC wondering where Max comes from and why — despite their differences — she can’t keep her hands off of him…

Oh, and the biggest plus of all? Max really digs her big, mangy mutt Fluffy…

Wolf Mates 3:
Moon Over Manhasset

Julia Lawrence is a successful small business owner. She's got a high falutin' pet boutique based in Manhasset and she's made a bundle selling designer clothes for pets.

Julia's got lot's of money and it's time to invest it wisely.

Xavier Wolf is just the man to do it. He's an investment banker in his family owned firm, Pride Investments.

He likes more about Julia than just the money she needs invested.

But Julia is a werewolf and Xavier isn't too sure he's crazy about that.

But does he always have to roar about it?

Wolf Mates 4:
Ruff & Ready

Lassiter Adams just bought himself a piece of the pie. A piece of the Adams pie, er, land, that is. He says he has every right to pay the back taxes that are due on the land and call it his own.

He says that because he says he’s an Adams and he isn’t lying about that either. He really is an Adams, but is he an Adams of the were variety?

Emerson Palmer is an environmental activist, trying to stop Lassiter Adams from building condos with snazzy hot tubs on the Adams’ vast acreage. With the help of all the Adams clan, she’ll fight tooth and nail to keep him from doing it, no matter how much she wants to sink her teeth into his hot body and nail him. Yet Lassiter digs and digs, but not a single condo has appeared since his hot booty arrived.

What Emerson can’t figure out is this — if Lassiter has no qualms about killing off the wildlife and his heart is as cold as he portrays it to be — why does he have a parakeet that he treats like a confidant and why on earth does he feed scraps to a dog he’s sadly fooled into believing is a stray?

Ruff, ruff...

However, Thor sends someone to keep a silent, watchful eye on Jane... Enter Alejandro Estes, a hot-blooded Brazilian with a host of secrets. He and Jane once tore up the sheets in every corner of the world, but he left her without so much as a goodbye. Now he wants back into her bed. And her life.
