Mother Nature is
Fighting Back!
Two sentinel wolf-shifters are born to each pack – male and female. Larger, stronger, and faster than other shifters, and able to shift at will, regardless of the moon’s phases, they risk their lives daily to restore balance between man and nature. Unfortunately, their very strengths have gained the attention of arrogant beings bent on exploiting their abilities for selfish gain.
Forced to leave their packs for a time to find mates, the sentinels are no longer able to avoid human contact. Dr. Sable Adler, of “Dark Sentinels Book One: Sable,” alpha of the Washington pack, one of the largest packs in the United States, was the first sentinel to fall in love with a human female. He’s a calm-natured Libra, while Torin DuMont, of “Dark Sentinels Book Two: Torin,” is a hot-headed, bad-tempered Scorpio alpha who resides in the Florida Everglades.
Like Sable before him, Torin is about to find himself in uncharted territory when he seeks the legal counsel of Stephanie Bates, an uppity human lawyer who needs his help more than he needs hers…
When greedy land developers
set their sights on Dark Sentinel land, Torin turns to attorney Stephanie Bates
for help, but she’ll need his protection to stay alive long enough to save his
land.
Real estate lawyer, Stephanie
Bates, has risen to the top of her field through meticulous sacrifice and goal
setting. She has no time for distractions – and that includes pets, messy
relationships, and loose ends.
Torin DuMont is a forensic
scientist who chose the profession to avoid dealing with people as much as
possible. Raised by a stepfather who hated him, he’s been forced to live a life
of solitude, fueled by anger and distrust. When wolves and shifters start turning
up dead, Torin must battle an enemy bent on destroying those he was born to
protect. His greatest challenge, however, is Attorney Bates and the surprising
effect she has on his heart.
Short Excerpt
Torin sensed the sun had gone down before he stepped
over to the small window and looked out. Even in the complete darkness, his
eyes did not fail him, and he saw the grounds as clearly as if daylight greeted
him. Finally, one man remained in the waiting room with him, but it was well
after six p.m.
He
picked up the pleasant scent of mint, lemongrass, and lilies and turned just in
time to see shapely legs, a voluptuous body full of promise. The warm,
mocha-colored face wasn’t bad either. Clearly, it was the owner of the musical
voice. His wolf bristled beneath his skin, forcing an internal battle just to
remain civilized. Confusion increased his frustration. He’d never reacted to a
female this way before, and certainly not a human.
She
glanced at the other client and headed straight for Torin, arm extended to
shake his hand as she called over her shoulder, “Go on home, Cindy. It’s
already late. No need for both of us to stay.”
Cindy
was out of the office in a flash, glancing back apprehensively as she closed
the door.
“Mr.
DuMont? I’m Ms. Bates, Stephanie Bates.”
Torin
nodded and grasped her hand but did not return her smile. He was far too busy
trying to resist the crippling effect her melodious voice seemed to have on
him. His nerve endings sizzled as he attempted to manage the sensory overload. This isn’t supposed to happen, he
secretly seethed. What in the hell is
wrong with me? His sexual encounters had been quick, unemotional, and
necessary for physical satisfaction only, and he’d never been overtaken
so--completely. Her scent intensified, tinged with desire, as molten
chocolate-colored eyes gazed at him confidently, only confusing him further. Desire?
