MaryJanice Davidson | Author-Reader Match: MAD FOR A MATE

bookbubgoodreadsfacebooktwitteramazon

Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match" where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It's our great pleasure to present MaryJanice Davidson!

 

Writes:

NYT and USA Today best-selling author MaryJanice Davidson has been on best-seller lists around the world.  Her latest Shifter paranormal romance, MAD FOR A MATE, brings back her popular werebears and the snark for which she is (in)famous.

In a world where apex predators are also shapeshifters, is there room for a shifter who can’t shift?  That’s the problem facing Verity Lane, proud member of a club out to prove themselves by participating in dangerous stunts. Which is probably how she ended up on this strange island...

Bear shifter Magnus Berne wants two things: to connect with his motherless goddaughter, and to find out who keeps dumping dead bodies on his property. When he discovers Verity on his island, he's determined to get some answers—but it's clear that whoever has been killing shifters like her is just as resolved to keep it quiet. And now that Verity is in the crosshairs, they'll have to move quickly to stay ahead, stay alive, and stay together.

 

About:

I’m a former model and medical test subject who lives in St. Paul, MN.  I love dogs and tolerate cats, love chocolate and tolerate carob, love seafood and tolerate legumes.  If you’re looking for someone who is pathologically immature and likes the preview more than the actual movie, I’m your gal.

 

What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:

  • sense of humor
  • no, really, the whole sense of humor thing is key
  • being profane doesn’t hurt, either
  • also you could bring me chocolate?
  • and be a carbon-based life form
  • must be alive
  • must love love

 

What to expect if we're compatible:

  • literal LOL moments
  • happy endings
  • loss of sleep as you tell yourself “Just one more chapter”

MAD FOR A MATE by MaryJanice Davidson

BeWere My Heart #3

Mad for a Mate

 

Beloved and bestselling author MaryJanice Davidson is back with a hilarious and heartfelt shifter romance:

  • A delightful cast of shifters and supernatural creatures
  • Side-splitting hijinks that'll make you snort-laugh
  • A slow-burn romance that's still sexy as hell

Verity Lane might be a Shifter who can't shift (known as a "squib")—but woe betide anyone who tries to tell her who she is or what she's capable of. She's a proud member of a club for squibs out to prove themselves by participating in dangerous stunts. Which is probably how she ended up on this strange island...

Bear shifter Magnus Berne wants two things: to connect with his motherless goddaughter, and to find out who keeps dumping dead bodies on his property. When he discovers Verity on his island, he's determined to get some answers—but it's clear that whoever has been killing squibs is just as resolved to keep it quiet. And now that Verity is in the crosshairs, they'll have to move quickly to stay ahead, stay alive, and stay together.

You won't want to miss the rollicking series readers are raving about!
