Cassie Roux is a wolf biologist who has studied real
wolves
for years, trying to prove to the world they’re not the
evil
predators so many people believe them to be. A red lupus
garou, who lost her pack and was raised by real wolves,
she
has dedicated her life to their preservation. Now for the
first time, she discovers a female wolf, her mate dead,
and
the pups and the mother in real danger, and Cassie does
everything she can think of to protect them. Until she
runs
into one stubborn alpha pack leader—werewolf kind—who has
other plans for her.
Leidolf Wildhaven is a red lupus garou pack leader of
Portland, Oregon and has more troubles than he ever
thought
possible what with running a pack, a ranch and other
businesses, dealing with a couple of cantankerous new
lupus
garous, and a myriad of other problems when a little red
wolf of the lupus garou variety is spotted in his
territory.
She’d be perfect as his mate, if she agreed. Only the
headstrong woman has other priorities, saving real wolves
from extinction, when he’s more worried about his own
kind’s
extinction and winning her heart.
It is easy to imagine that a wolf wouldn't be into something like weight lifting to stay in shape! Being natural creatures, he stays in shape the 'natural' way. Being active doing the things he loves. I really enjoy that this is your stance, too!
Looking forward to reading "Seduced by the Wolf"! (Jennifer Bird 11:08pm August 19, 2010)
I have read everyone of your books. I even bought three copies of "Heart of the Wolf" and gave the extra two copies to my sisters so I could have someone to discuss about the books and the series.
I'm looking forward to more of the Wolf series. (Kai Wong 11:40pm August 19, 2010)
And keeping her warm is another work out. For those who are sliding down that slippery slope again—what I mean, is that he has to gather firewood, in the all-together, to build a fire, to keep her warm... hahaha!
i would definitely love to trade places with Cassie!!! (Tina Werner 9:31am August 20, 2010)
Can't wait to read "Heart of the Wolf". (Linda Hall 12:47pm August 23, 2010)

Your Wolf series is great, can't wait to read Heart of the Wolf. (Pat Wilson 12:21pm August 23, 2010)
To those of you who long for a sexy vampire I say BAH! give me a warm (dare I say HOT) furry wolf anytime! (Elizabeth Parzino 1:31pm August 23, 2010)
This is a great series, I haven't found your new book yet but it is on order and I should get my copy within a week or so. (Diane Sadler 1:31pm August 23, 2010)
Now that I'm aware of your series I will give it a try. Not sure that I would trade places with Cassie. (Vikki Parman 1:32pm August 23, 2010)
Love werewolf stories. I will look for your book Seduced by the Wolf on my next book buying spree. I have no doubt it's a keeper. (Juana Esparza 1:33pm August 23, 2010)
We have a wolf preserve here in Indiana. It is an absolutely marvelous thing to be able to walk among them and communicate. Blessings, Marjorie (Marjorie Carmony 1:52pm August 23, 2010)
Of course I couldn't think of a woman who wouldn't want a wolf like Leidolf around. I know I would!! The weather gets cold where I live, and someone like that would be nice to have around to make sure that I'm taken care of, and to make sure that I have enough wood, along with "creature comforts" to keep me warm when it got cold enough. There's also time for some "fun." It doesn't sound like a bad deal to me!! (Peggy Roberson 3:41pm August 23, 2010)
Wow, if I weren't very happily married I would definately want to trade places with Cassie! (G. Bisbjerg 3:53pm August 23, 2010)
I would not mind watching him when he worked out! ;) I would love to trade places with Cassie! (Colleen Conklin 4:48pm August 23, 2010)
look forward to reading your latest book (Betty Conrad 5:12pm August 23, 2010)
OOOh this sounds good! (April Funderburgh 5:23pm August 23, 2010)
I would love to change places with Cassie. And my question for Leidolf is, does he have room for one more? (Leni Kaye 5:48pm August 23, 2010)
Wow! That's all I can say, wow! (Kelli Jo Calvert 5:56pm August 23, 2010)
Would love to trade places with Cassie! Looking forward to reading Seduced by the wolf. (Teresa Ward 6:21pm August 23, 2010)
Cassie can switch places with me any day! (Jacqueline Cook 6:39pm August 23, 2010)
Wolves are incredibly beautiful & fascinating. May they always be. (Mary Preston 6:39pm August 23, 2010)
Woof,Seduced by a Wolf, sounds hot. (Deb Pelletier 6:52pm August 23, 2010)
Thanks for the contest! I would love to read your book! (Lisa Garrett 6:59pm August 23, 2010)
After seeing the wolves in our area, I would think he might be into some long distance running. (Sue Farrell 7:29pm August 23, 2010)
You did a good job of keeping it G- rated. Not everyone has a mind that wanders into R territory, even when innuendo might send them there. I haven't read many werewolf books. This sounds interesting. Good luck with the release of SEDUCED BY THE WOLF and the December release of WOLF FEVER. (Patricia Barraclough 9:49pm August 23, 2010)
Sounds like an interesting read,eventhough its not my usual subject of choice. (Sheila True 10:29pm August 23, 2010)
Hey, I wasn't thinking that.... Okay... Yeah, I was. >:D (Suzie Thompson 10:34pm August 23, 2010)
This looks like an amazing and yummy book! (Cathie Veres 10:38pm August 23, 2010)
Well there's some workout inspiration! I wouldn't mind swapping workout buddies for a bit! Looking forward to this one it looks like a fun read. (Sarah Dewbery 11:47pm August 23, 2010)
Wolves are one of my favorite shapeshifters, I'm looking forward to reading this story! (Sue Ahn 5:18am August 24, 2010)
Ohmigosh, while I was at work this was posted and wow, great responses!
Thanks, Jennifer Bird, I hope you enjoy Leidolf and Cassie's story!
Kai, that was so touching. Thanks so much! If you need autographed book plates or book marks, just send me a SASE!
To all of you who said you'd trade places with Cassie, I'm thrilled you love Leidolf. And Leni, if you want to join the pack, he's always looking for new females for his bachelor males!
Marjorie, where in Indiana? I went to Officer Personnel school at Fort Benjamin Harrison, and my French grandfather, whom Cassie is named after, Roux, settled in Fort Wayne. :)
Peggy, you sound like you'd fit right in!
Suzie, too funny!
We all need a little inspiration, right, Sarah? :)
Sue, definitely, long distance running is a must. :)
Thanks to everyone for your overwhelming response. Hope you fall in love with the series if you're just checking it out and if you're already reading the series, hope you love Leidolf's story! I'm off to work on seducing a SEAL in The Wolf and the SEAL (the SEAL is very much a wolf)... :) after I work the day job! :) (Terry Spear 5:52am August 24, 2010)
Playing is always the best! (Joanne Reynolds 6:33am August 24, 2010)
the book sounds interesting but I wouldn't want to trade places with Cassie, except in my imagination. (Pam Howell 10:43am August 24, 2010)
Thanks for the behind the scenes look at a wolf's workout,Terry.Can't wait to read these stories. I've been so busy with edits I haven't had a chance yet, but they're next on my list. (Anita Clenney 10:45am August 24, 2010)
Great contest!! I love Wolf stories. And yes, I would love to swap places with Cassie....hehe!!
Valerie in Germany [email protected] (Valerie Bongards 1:17pm August 24, 2010)
This sounds awesome. Can't wait to get my hands on it. (Denise Boyd 1:57pm August 24, 2010)
The wolf preserve is near Brookville. I live in Rush County, near Indianapolis. It was a thrill to pet those wild creatures who wanted to trust. You are blessed with Hoosier connections. Blessings, Marjorie (Marjorie Carmony 2:53pm August 24, 2010)
This sounds like an intriguing read! (Alice Xiao 6:10pm August 24, 2010)
Hi Terry, I love your wolf series. Leidolf is so sexy!! But all of your alpha wolves are sexy. Can't wait until the next book comes out. (Julie Swaney 6:28pm August 24, 2010)
Love this series to death, hope it's around many, many more years. (Lisa Richards 7:09pm August 24, 2010)
What, Anita??? You are working on edits before reading the story? Haven't you heard life is too short??? LOL :) Good luck with your edits and hope Leidolf is your reward for getting the job done!
Hi, Valerie, from Germany! My dad's family were Wilde from Germany!
I bet, Marjorie!!! I'd love to see them.
Thanks, Alice!
Thanks so much, Julie!!! Wolf Fever will soon be here! Truly! :) I had so much fun with poor Carol. And Chester Ryan McKinley? Hmm-hm. :)
Ah, thanks so much, Lisa!! It will be!!! I'm working on book 9 and 10 and loving them. And hope you do too!!! :) (Terry Spear 7:31pm August 24, 2010)
Since I've always liked the big dogs like shepherds, labradors, etc., I find that wolves definitely fit into that category as well. I enjoy Kelley Armstrong's wolf-pack books and this sounds like a great series as well. You may also notice that I have a German name though my first name is more Scandinavian than German. (Sigrun Schulz 4:06am August 25, 2010)
Ah, yes, Schulz, very German! :) On my mother's side--we had Kramer (changed to Cramer)...but he came over with a German prince as a mercenary force during the American Revolution. I love genealogy! And I've had small, medium and large dogs. Loved my lab--always wanted a chocolate one. :) I had standard poodles too. The bigger dogs remind me of their heritage. The smaller they are, the more diluted from their original wolf genes. :) I've never owned them, but I love Great Danes and Irish Wolfhounds! I have Irish Wolfhounds in Heart of the Highland Wolf, coming Jun 2011. :) (Terry Spear 7:07pm August 25, 2010)
Terry, I'm not sure if you'll get this. I went to your website and blogger blog but I couldn't find a way to email you. Just wanted to let you know I received Seduced by the Wolf today and I can not WAIT to dive into reading it. Thanks so much for holding this contest. :) (Suzie Thompson 5:31pm August 30, 2010)
