WOLF NIP

Romance Paranormal | Paranormal

In WOLF NIP Tessa Williams, a cougar shifter, wants to change her life. She's okay with the family cruise business but now she has a plan for her own future. She wants to move to Haines, Alaska and turn a landlocked paddle wheeler into a B&B. The only problem is the owner won't sell. She has no choice but to go there and try to talk him into it.

Mark Weaver, a wolf shifter, lives in the paddle wheeler and he can't sell. It really belongs to his grandfather and if he were to sell out the boat would be destroyed and only the land would be sold.

There is a way to please both of them. He's completely gung- ho about the B&B idea especially after meeting Tessa face to face and his wolf practically jumps her on the spot. Tessa can live in the boat and they can be partners in the B&B, after all she is his mate. It is unfortunate, that she isn't into the instant "you belong to me" mating that the wolves accept. Her cat wants to be romanced, to be loved.

Mark promises her that he will give her time to accept him. The only thing he can do is work on the renovations and keep away from her because every time he's near her his wolf howls and practically begs. Will he be able to survive until Tessa accepts them as a couple? Will she ever accept him?

WOLF NIP is a fast paced, utterly enjoyable story. It centers mostly on the couple and their reaction to each other and trying to come up with a compromise that will please them both. The author [Vivian Arend] has a vividly descriptive way with words that lets readers really picture the characters and scenes in the book as well as feel what the characters are feeling. This is book 6 of the Granite Lake Wolves and I hope there are many more to come.

SUMMARY

Tessa Williams is looking to make her mark outside the family business, and the unusual landlocked paddle wheeler she spots in Haines, Alaska, strikes her as the perfect location. Only the owner is being difficult, refusing to sell. Still, she’s sure that replacing her written queries with a little in-person charm is all she’ll need to shortly have her Eco-tour B&B on the road to success. Local wolf-slash-owner of said vessel, Mark Weaver, isn’t hanging on to the landmark building out of spite. There are more reasons for holding back the sale than are easily explained on paper. A face-to-face meeting to resolve the matter only confounds itβ€”when Mark recognizes Tessa as his mate. But she’s a cat...and cats don’t do insta-mates. The sexual attraction between them isn’t in question, just everything else. He wants her. She wants twue wuv. His wolf can’t figure out what the holdup is. Her cat thinks the entire situation, and the pack, are rather amusing. Somewhere in here is the beginning of a beautiful relationshipβ€”if they don’t drive each other mad. Warning: One hyper cat, one laid-back wolf. Inappropriate use of permanent markers, and a heaping side dish of cat/dog jokes. Shenanigans (read: nookie) in front of a roaring fire. Spiced liberally with sarcasm. Enjoy!
