“Sexy alpha, torrid sex, and a hint of danger . . . a scintillating story . . . Ms. Dante moves me with the way her characters come to life.” “If you love aggressive males, and women who know exactly what they want in a man, this is the book for you.” “A great example of a traditional werewolf romance and very well done at that. Ms. Dante does an excellent job.” “Provocative and tantalizing . . . [with] an undeniably hot hero who blurs the line between man and beast” —Gail Pruszkowski, Romantic Times BOOKreviews
Excerpt
“Oh, God!” Deanna clung to her rescuer, chilled by her close call. If it hadn’t been for him, she’d still be trapped and might have accompanied her car even farther down the mountain. She pressed closer to him, craving safety. Still feeling unsteady, she wrapped her legs around his, anchoring herself against the fear that threatened to shake her apart. He stroked her back, crooning wordlessly, his gruff voice reaching deep inside her, enfolding her in reassurance, his big body a shield against the horror of her brush with death.It had been a near thing. Shivering with an uncharacteristic craving for support, she buried her face in his solid chest, soaking in the aura of strength that he radiated. The scent of fabric softener, sweat and male filled her nose, calling to her like precious perfume.Her empty sheath clenched, raw need coiling in her belly, sudden and unexpected. Unbidden and almost unfamiliar. It pinned her in place with a spine-tingling, knee-melting intensity that banished all thought. It had been months since she’d felt arousal, and never with such carnal violence. Her rescuer wasn’t immune to it either. His erection surged against her belly, swelling to an undeniable ridge, hard and thick with promise. All male hunger she wanted inside her.
