Andrea McNeilly's job as an assassin for SRD (Supernatural
Regulatory Division) has always been 'don't ask questions
just do as you are told.' She always has until the night a
botched assassination brings her in the sights of a very
powerful Master Vampire. It was his human servant she had
been ordered to assassinate. Use to using her wiles as an
agent she's not use to it when SHIFT HAPPENS but ... she
is
sure she can get out of trouble. Until she comes face to
face with her captors and can't seem to concentrate on
fighting.
Wick, is a werewolf and the one who was sent to bring Andy
to Lucien. After meeting the beauty he doesn't want to but
he has no choice. He and his pack belong to the powerful
vampire. All he can do is support Andy and help her find
out why the human servant had been targeted and by whom.
Turns out things are not exactly the way she thought they
were and many things are about to change. It could be for
the good ... or so much worse.
SHIFT HAPPENS is a fast paced, humorous, sexy paranormal.
If you like your heroine to be butt kicking and brave,
even
though she is secretly scared to death then you will love
Andrea and Wick is the perfect foil for her, because
everyone wants their werewolf to resemble a Norse God and
have your back. This book, written by author J.C. McKenzie
is quick, easy reading with many touches of humor,
especially some texting autocorrects that happen, plenty
of
action and of course there are sexy wolves and vampires
all
over the place. My admiration for Andrea kicked up an
extra
couple of notches after getting hints of her past popping
up at different times, but she kept going. It took awhile
for Wick to get through to her, but it's always good when
an alpha has to do a little extra work to get what he
wants.
There is so much that happens in SHIFT HAPPENS that it
could be confusing but I found the style of
Ms. McKenzie's writing to flow in a way that you find
yourself at the end but wanting more. I hope there are
more
of this type of storyline coming in the future because
there are a few characters I would love to see more of and
a couple I would dearly love to see get what they deserve.
This is going in my TRA shelf and I will be hoping for
more.
Andrea McNeilly's job as a government agent is not asking
questions, but then a routine assignment turns into a
botched assassination of a Master Vampire's human
servant.
Answers become a priority. Her search to discover the
truth
is riddled with obstacles, the largest being an oversized
Werewolf who resembles a Norse god. Andy can't afford the
distraction he offers, because if she fails, she faces
eternal enslavement.
Wick's job is to monitor Andy, but he prefers more
intimate
activities, none of them G-Rated. His choices, however,
are
often not his own. His ability to help Andy is limited by
his bond to the Master Vampire.
Facing many trials and challenges along her path to
redemption, Andy learns the value of her freedom might be
set too high.
Excerpt
A large black wolf trotted into the clearing to confront
me. He had a white-tipped snout, white boots and mitts
and
would have looked cute had he not been the most
intimidating Werewolf I’d ever seen. Standing tall and
solid, power rolled off of his body. His eyes bore into
mine. I sniffed the air. The strong Werewolf scent of
rosemary swirled around me, strong and seductive, laced
with sugar. A weird fuzzy sensation spread out from my
chest. Whoa.
Alpha.
My other form growled low, demanding release, straining
against my skin. The energy of the wolves built—layers
upon
layers of excitement and impatience. The air pulsated
with
anticipation. They could sense the imminent kill.
Let me out! My other form repeated, throwing her power
against my built up walls, howling in defiance.
When the energy of the Werewolves surged, I finally
released her. My wolf form flowed out fast, wiping out
the
feline in little more than a heartbeat. Smaller, weaker
and
the size of a natural wolf, a Shifter in this form was no
match for a Werewolf, especially a dominant one. I had
time
to meet the eyes of the Alpha for only an instant before
the pack leapt forward. My limbs shook. It went against
every instinct ingrained within me, but I rolled onto my
back—submissive.
