Wolf Moon Security: Complete 5-Part Series
Camilla Blake - 2019
Get ready for a unique spin on those shifter-security-team novels we all love—with fays, pipers, hunters, and kick-ass vacationers adding their own mix of sassiness, secrets, and supernatural gifts to the visceral force that is Wolf Moon Security. Book One It’s spring break. Naomi Billing is ready to party—and on a mission to cheer up best friend and self-proclaimed nerd Gwen after her recent relationship breakup. Problem is, they’re vacationing on Wolf Moon Island. A spring-break paradise. Partying teens wishing they never had to leave. Problem is… some never will. For Wolf Moon Island has a long-held, fiercely guarded secret. And best friends Naomi and Gwen are about to—unwittingly—blow it wide open. Book Two Naomi Billing has always been a party animal. Now, she feels… well, just animal. For the fourth night in a row, she has been snapping awake with a bitter scream lodged in her throat and inhuman claws at the ends of her fingers. As the derwos of the Wolf Moon Island Pack, Orrick Erikson knows that Naomi is forbidden territory for him. So how come she is getting under his skin and driving him absolutely crazy, in a good way—and he knows he is totally going to let her? Book Three Emily Gray, Wolf Moon Island’s resident doctor, has long known the secret of the island’s inhabitants, and has got her manipulation of wolfsbane down to a fine art, enabling her to slow down her patients’ metabolisms enough to be able to operate on them. But the more alpha they get, the more difficult things become. And there is no one more alpha than her current patient. But that is not the only secret Emily knows… Tayte’s father, Mason, is a cruel man who spends his days in a wheelchair drinking himself into a stupor and lashing out viciously at his son. Tayte has had his fair share of surprises recently. He’s just discovered he has a baby on the way with Emily. And a sister he knew nothing about. But the secret Emily holds today is so huge it’s going to change his life. Forever. Book Four Hope Nassir is an agent working for the Council that governs all supernatural beings, including werewolves. She came to Wolf Moon Island on assignment, to watch over new ’wolf Naomi Billing to make sure she learns to control her ’wolf before an innocent is hurt. But Hope has another reason for visiting the island, a personal reason: she’s convinced her father died there. Caught by Rowson trying to spy on Naomi and her illegal lover, Orrick Erikson, Hope convinces him to help her research the island and find the woman she suspects of being her biological mother. Rowson agrees, unaware that his choice to help Hope will take them down a road that could destroy them, or save the entire pack. Or maybe both. Book Five Growing up human on an island inhabited by werewolves did nothing to help Gabby understand their unique nature any more than the average person. When Lunacy begins to tighten its grip on the island, Hugh puts himself in danger to protect her, but when she confesses her love to him, he pushes her away, refusing to allow himself to even entertain the idea of a romance. But as she joins Hugh, and his pack of family and friends struggle to find a way to end the spread of Lunacy, Hugh becomes erratic, his behavior confusing and frightening.
Deputies of Dos Brazos: A Boxset
Dee Bridgnorth - 2019
PART I When Deputy Carson Wheeler goes to the One Hart Ranch to investigate a report of cattle rustling, he finds himself face to face with Melody Hart. Melody is the last of the Harts left to run the old ranching operation. She’s fierce and hardworking and Carson finds himself fascinated in spite of how prickly she seems with him. But they’re going to have to work together to unravel the case of the animal rights activists looking to shut down what they see as an abomination against cattle and the ranching tradition itself. PART II One of Deputy Lilliana Martinez’s favorite stops every morning is at the food truck parked not far from the sheriff’s office. There are Burrito Trucks everywhere in the valley. But lately, there have been several very strange robberies. When Lilli witnesses a robbery, she takes a personal interest in the case. Lilli thinks that it’s an inside job and she even has her suspect. Oscar Garcia certainly looks the part. But the more Lilli gets to know Oscar, the more she realizes that he only looks like a thug on the outside. On the inside, he’s a prince among men. And in fact, it’s the one who looks like a prince that is really the devil in disguise. PART III Deputy Rico Attencio is not a big fan of art and yoga weekends. Maybe that’s why he’s not all that surprised to get a phone call from the artists’ retreat saying that they have a problem. What Rico could never predict was how attractive he finds the owner. Sara Sellers is nothing like what Rico expected. Sara is absolutely sure that someone is poisoning her guests. But it will take more than a little bit of sleuthing and good old fashioned common sense to find the culprit before someone winds up dead. PART IV Deputy Tom Mason is just as supportive of this resurgence of the homestead movement as anyone else. That is until it starts to spawn a herd of livestock and children who seem determined to wander through the streets of Dos Brazos. First chickens. Then a bull. And then eventually there are goats and children roaming just about everywhere around town and getting in the way of normal things like traffic. When Florence Fiskars from the Department of Social Services asks Deputy Tom for a hand, he is sure that the state is just going to make a mess of things. It does not take long for them to discover they’ve stumbled onto a little more than the average negligence case. Tom always heard about the “orphan train” in history class as a boy. He just never thought he’d discover that someone was attempting to use orphan labor in the here and now. PART V There have been a lot of changes in the valley, but when someone starts putting pressure on Clarissa Maestas to sell her family’s farm, she digs in her heels and says no. Then a string of strange things begins to happen within the Maestas family’s Farm to Table operation. That’s when Clarissa calls in the help of her oldest school friend, now sheriff of the Dos Brazos Valley. What Wyatt and Clarissa dig up has them realizing that someone has huge plans for the valley that leaves no room for any of the locals. It’s up to Clarissa and Wyatt to put aside their childhood quarrels and put a stop to the Hollywood invasion before it’s too late.
Blue Falls: Complete Trilogy
Harper Maguire - 2019
But theirs is particularly unique... Part One Warren Bane lives a double life. By day, he’s vice principal at Blue Falls, Idaho’s, elementary school. By night, he runs with his pack through the forests on the outskirts of town. Hiding his wolf-shifting identity isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it to live free with his family on the twenty-eight-acre plot of land that his father first settled the pack on forty years ago. It’s a good life, but not one that he can ever share with a human woman. So when beautiful Indie Zimmerman walks into his school’s third-grade classroom, the attraction he feels for her isn’t just problematic. It’s downright dangerous. Indie Zimmerman has moved to Blue Falls for a fresh start after the deaths of her parents. Being near the grandparents who helped raise her, taking her very first teaching job straight out of college, in a town surrounded by a landscape straight out of a storybook—everything seems to be going great. Then her instant attraction to rugged Warren Bane puts her in the path of unexpected danger. Part Two Zimmerman is torn between two worlds. On the one hand, her love for Warren makes her want to fight to understand this new world she’s suddenly been thrust into—his world. On the other hand, she desperately wants to return to the normalcy of her life. But that can never be. For now, survival is the name of the game. Warren Bane is brokenhearted as he watches Indie. In addition to the pain he feels seeing the woman he loves suffer, there’s the present danger hanging over both their heads and over the lives of the entire pack. Someone is out to destroy them, one by one. Several of his dearest friends have already been murdered and Warren is determined to avoid losing yet another loved one to the specter suddenly haunting his pack. Gabriela. Part Three Warren Bane’s focus has now switched from survival to battle. With the very lives of his pack and of his mate, Indie Zimmerman, at stake, he’s forced to turn to help to the last person he’d ever think to trust—Peter. Besides the fact that Peter’s particular supernatural abilities are unnerving even to a wolf shifter, Peter’s attraction to Indie continues to be a bone of contention between the two men. But with everything on the line, there’s nothing left to do but join forces. Gabriela’s quest for revenge first brought Indie Zimmerman into the line of fire. Now a fully-fledged wolf shifter, Indie feels as much of a loyalty to her pack and to her love, Warren, as she does to her human grandparents. But that loyalty will be tested to the extremes as she, Warren, and Peter begin a frantic search to take down the woman who is seeking to destroy everything they hold dear.
