Christopher Beckett is an extremely powerful and sexy
wizard
who from an ancient line of wizards with one small feature
that sets him apart from most wizards -- he shape shifts to
a
wolf. And Christopher's wolf is ready to find a mate.
Christopher uses an old family spell to call his mate to
him
-- he lists all of the qualities he is looking for in a
mate
-- someone from a lineage at least as old as his, born to
power, with magic to compliment his own, and who can accept
his wolf. One small thing Christopher forgot to mention
when he cast his spell -- to ask for another wizard; but it
never occurred to him that his spell would bring him a
witch. Alannah Evans -- known as Lana to her friends and family --
is
a powerful witch from the Evans Coven. Lana finds herself
stranded in the middle of nowhere with car troubles after
attending a bachelorette party at a small town in
Pennsylvania. With a dead car and a storm moving in,
instinct drives Lana to leave her car and head into the
dark
woods along the road. She is compelled to keep moving
forward -- as she is
positive safety lies ahead. Christopher is alerted by his spell that his mate is nearby
and needs his assistance. He shifts to wolf form and heads
out to rescue her. Lana is confronted by a man in the
woods
who has a sickly green and black aura. She is instantly
aware that this man means her harm. She is able to break
free from him and stumbles upon a huge wolf. Instead of
being afraid, she follows the wolf to safety. Once back at
his home, Christopher shifts back to his human form and
reveals himself to Lana. Lana has no issues with Christopher's wolf, but she's
definitely not interested in tying herself to a wizard.
However, as they work together to keep their families and
each other safe from a dangerous, unexpected evil; Lana
finds herself being drawn ever closer to Christopher and
begins to realize that maybe there is more to this wizard
than first met the eye. SHADOW OF THE WOLF is a sizzling hot erotic, paranormal
romance that keeps you on the edge of your seat from the
first chapter right up to the end of the book. Ms. Bell
did
a wonderful job with character creation and world
building.
Christopher is a smoking hot wizard who just happens to be
a
shape-shifting wolf too and don't get me started on his
brothers -- I'm anxiously awaiting more books so I can read
their stories. Lana is a kick-butt heroine who doesn't
just
sit back and expect someone to rescue her -- she's more
than
capable of taking care of herself and I really enjoyed
that!
I highly recommend SHADOW OF THE WOLF!
SUMMARY
Christopher Beckett is from an ancient line of wizards, but
with one aspect that sets him apart. His wolf. Right now
that wolf is howling for a mate. Knowing it’s only a matter
of time before the wolf’s needs override everything else in
his life, Chris casts the spell all the Becketts have used
to call their mates to them. His wish list is short: She must be of a lineage at least as
old as his own. And she must accept his wolf. When his mate
appears, he realizes his list should have been one item longer. Alannah Evans, a powerful witch of the Evans Coven, has no
problem with Chris’s wolf. It’s the wizard part that sticks
in her magical craw. Witches and wizards have always been at
odds, so by rights, she and Chris shouldn’t be striking
sparks of attraction this bright. But Chris will not be
denied, and gradually she finds herself trusting him—then
falling into the fire of desire. When it becomes clear an old enemy has targeted them both
for death, Chris charges into a duel that could cost him his
life. Or worse: Lana. Warning: Product contains explicit sex, graphic language,
magic, mayhem, and a wet, naked wolf shifter bearing hot
chocolate. Mmm… chocolate
