Of Secrets and Wolves
Alice Winters - 2021
So when I’m hired to track two escaped convicts, I’m suddenly thrust into the world I hate—or thought I did. Yet I’m inexplicably drawn to the alpha of the pack whose land the convicts may be hiding on. He’s different than any shifter I've ever met—laid back and quick to laugh, caring and protective, and makes me feel complete for the first time in my life. As secrets are revealed, I start to wonder if everything I’ve been raised to believe was a lie, though it may not matter because it seems like someone wants us dead.QuinnI’m no stranger to prejudice from humans, but it’s different when Rowan comes into my life. Though I shouldn’t let myself be distracted, I’m captivated by him. At first, he’s stiff, fighting to keep his misconstrued beliefs intact, but as I break down the wall he’s created, I’m able to show him a place among the fun chaos of my pack. After one of my pack goes missing, it leaves Rowan and me racing to bring them home, but the only way we’re going to survive this is if Rowan learns to accept the bond that’s growing between us—a bond that could give us the strength to put aside our reservations and give in to what both of us want.Of Secrets and Wolves is an action-filled romance with a dash of comedy. It’s the first book in a series with a continuing storyline and an HFN.
Seriously H*rny
Piper Scott - 2019
When a suspicious news report sends tracker Isaiah on the hunt for a missing dragon, he’s expecting to run into trouble... not a college kid with crazy visions who may be his fated mate. Following the suspicious death of his parents and the disappearance of his young brother, Eric’s visions bring him home. If what he’s seen is right, his brother is in danger, and a hunky older stranger, Isaiah, who claims Eric is a dragon might be the only one who can help. Despite the differences between them, if they want to bring Eric’s brother back safely, they’ll have to find a way to work together... and after one hot night leads to more than either of them could have dreamed, the stakes grow higher yet. It’s not only a matter of finding a missing boy anymore—it’s about bringing home their family. Seriously H*rny is a novella-length story in the Redneck Unicorns series. These stories are set several years after the events of the Waking the Dragons series, and while they can be enjoyed as stand-alones, they’re even better as sequels.

When the old king dies and Prince Reynold takes the throne, two visitors from the north throw Tristram into the middle of the ancient conflict between dragons and men.

He had thin lips and a dimpled chin, with a strong jaw and sharp cheekbones that landed him on just the right side of too pretty. Meeting the werewolf's eyes for a fraction of a second, blue so pale they almost looked gray, Brian had to look away at the sight of sheer want in the other man's eyes.His belly tingled with heat like it hadn't done since... since the last time a werewolf had looked at him like that.Brian ducked his head, staring at the werewolf's denim clad legs and huge boots before forcing himself to look up again. The werewolf's expression was still heated, his eyes locked on Brian with an intensity that made his insides squirm."Can I come in?"
