Paranormal

Derik Gardner is a werewolf. He's never had problems in the pack before, but now he's becoming alpha, and to keep the peace in the pack, he knows he must leave. Sara Gunn has been watched her entire life by a group who knows she's the reincarnation of Morgana, the evil sister of King Arthur. She doesn't know she's Morgana, nor does she know that Morgana is supposed to destroy the world this time around. When Derik is given the job of assassinating Sara, he finds he can't kill her, no matter how hard he tries. So they must work together to keep her from destroying the world. This new addition to the Wyndham Werewolf Tales by Ms. Davidson was a treat to read. The characters are very believable and will have you rooting for them from the beginning. Lots of action and a very strong attraction between Derik and Sara keep the story moving at a good pace, and I was sorry the story had to end. A very good read.

SUMMARY

Derik's a werewolf with alpha issues—and a body to die for. Sara is the personification of unspeakable evil—and smells like roses. Now if they could just stop drooling over each other long enough to save the world.
