Sheppard


Kathi S. Barton - 2019
    Sheppard 2. Dean 3. Oakley 4. Rodney 5. Heath 6. Trenton Harrison Parker had no family and no ties. She was invisible to be traced. Her job with the government was top secret. So secret that she only reported to two people. Now, she was the target and she had to figure out who wanted her dead. Hurt, and laying low, she reached out to the only man she trusted, an old man she had befriended in the cemetery, Sheppard Marshall. Sheppard Marshall had been grieving the loss of his Millie for the last fifteen years. He would sit by her grave every day. He was an old man of ninety, and he looked forward to the visits he received from the sassy woman, Harrison Parker. Over time he had grown very fond of her, and when he received the message that she needed his help, Sheppard would help her or die trying. His grandson, Sheppard or Shep, wasn’t letting the old man go alone. If he got hurt, Shep wouldn’t be able to live with himself. Even though the Marshall men were jaguars, that didn’t mean the old man couldn’t get into a situation that got him hurt or possibly killed. The bullet had gone clear through, but the poison it had been laced with left Harrison with a high fever and near death. Shep didn’t know what this woman was into, but he knew two things—she was dangerous, and she was his mate. What kind of mess had the old man gotten him into now?

Pine Hollow Security


Clara Kendrick - 2018
    Kindle Unlimited. Under the shadow of Glastenbury Mountain and the cover of night, the bad boy wolf shifters of PH Security get their real work done – keeping Pine Hollow safe and blissfully ignorant of the supernatural threats to their town. Book One After getting mugged out jogging, Avery Meredith is more baffled than frightened. None of it adds up. Why would anyone be after her? Even more mystifying, she was rescued by none other than Rowan Winter. The strapping, beautiful and brooding man who usually pretends she doesn’t exist. But PHS insists on assigning Rowan to watch over her on their dime. It should be a cinch for him: former juvenile delinquent, ex-Marine and over six feet of tatted steel. But Rowan has tried to stay far, far away from Avery ever since she moved to town. Now, he has to live with her, the curvy armful who sometimes shows up in his dreams. Book Two If there is one thing Nolan Locke and Tori Mederos are good at, it’s avoiding each other. What they can’t avoid are the questions. Ten years of them. The town of Pine Hollow has to know what broke apart these two former best friends. Yet neither of them will even acknowledge it. But when Tori is thrust into paranormal, Pine Hollow patented danger, and Nolan is assigned as her security shifter – the two will be forced to face the past in order to save their future. The mountain is restless, shifters are missing, and the spooks are spooked. Book Three It was bad enough for Jayce Tursi, stud shifter of Pine Hollow security, that he got lost in the Parallel for weeks. But now that he’s back on his feet, he’s stuck training rookies? Good thing Jayce knows how to pin a smile on his face and fool the world. It’s not fooling Melita Mederos, though. The PHS rookie has a thing for popular Jayce, who doesn’t even know her name. Melita is determined to change that until everything goes wrong. Book Four Em Tajima has always preferred a ghost story to a love story. Until she moves to Pine Hollow, Vermont and finds more than she bargained for. Ghost towns, shadow figures out of the corner of her eye, and a connection to a hidden past. Plus, the secretive and stubborn shifter who decides to keep an eye on her for her own good. Now Em can’t shake her Pine Hollow Security (self-appointed) bodyguard. Or the sense that he might be right. Even though he’s supposed to being laying low, Wyatt can’t figure out whether the new girl is in trouble or is trouble. Either way, he’ll find out. No matter what rules he has to break. Book Five If Lee Stone had been honest with himself, none of this would have happened. Also, if Bryn Santos had been a professional, poised and sophisticated social worker, instead of being a hot and smitten mess, none of this would have happened. She wouldn’t have been in the wrong place at the wrong time. She wouldn’t have become the pivotal witness in a small-town murder mystery. And she wouldn’t have ended up under Lee’s protection. Lee, her client, and the serious, stern, and sexy-as-hell bodyguard.

Semi-Obsessed


Isabel Jordan - 2018
    Which is why she’s pretty shocked when a couple of vampires try to kidnap her on her way home from work. And don’t even get her started on the sexy-as-all-hell Irish dhampyre who gallantly (if somewhat drunkenly) rushes to her rescue out of nowhere, kisses the ever-lovin’ crap out of her, then disappears without a trace. It’s all too weird to comprehend!Quinn Connell’s life is anything but mundane. As an ex-convict with a shady past and an even shadier employment history, all he has to do is obey the terms of his parole, which are exceedingly simple: get a job, and stay out of trouble. Unfortunately, getting involved with Marina is the very definition of trouble for someone like him. And, as it turns out, her sister is the only employer in town willing to hire him. Quinn’s head tells him Marina’s officially off limits. Too bad his heart—and body, which can’t seem to stop touching her—didn’t get the memo.But when Quinn and Marina find themselves in the middle of a brutal life-or-death situation, Quinn knows keeping his distance and staying out of trouble is no longer an option. He’ll do anything to keep Marina safe, even if it means relying on a few of his quirky (and sometimes scary) new coworkers and utilizing the very same dubious skills that landed him in prison in the first place. Nab the bad guys, stay out of prison, and (hopefully) get the girl. Easy, right?Yeah, not so much.WARNING: Semi-Obsessed is a novella in the Harper Hall Investigations series. You can read it as a stand-alone, but it works best if you've read the other books in the series, starting with Semi-Charmed. It also works best if you like kick-ass heroines and the sometimes befuddled alpha heroes who love them. You also might want to skip this one if you don't have a healthy appreciation for cussing and pop culture references. But for everyone else, enjoy!
