AWAKENING THE DRAGON

SHADOW-WALKERS BOOK 5

(This is a standalone story in the Shadow-walkers series.)

 

Some secrets are deadly.

Do you like stories with sexy, mysterious dragon shifters, romance, and mystery? This passionate, thrilling romance is part of the highly rated Shadow-walkers series.

 She has a gentle soul, but she hides a dark secret.

 Mickey Dalton, wearer of the Opening rune and rhythm guitarist for the rock band Hecate’s Fury, is haunted by her past. Now, her present doesn’t make sense. Savic, the scarred dragon shifter, insists she tried to kill him, but she didn’t. Or at least, she doesn’t recall trying to kill him.

 She barely escaped his blade once, but not his passion.

 Ten years ago, Mickey had a one-night stand with the dragon shifter. His ominous reappearance puzzles her, especially since it coincides with a recent string of unsolved murders in L.A. Whether his return is a coincidence or not, she can’t deny the powerful attraction between them. When the Council accuses Savic of the murders, she will defend him, to the death if necessary.

Steamy Excerpt:

“Are you going to deny there’s something between us?” I trembled and drew my arms back across my chest.

“No. I know there’s something between us, something I’ve never felt before, something intensely powerful. But…” The light in his eyes softened, and a tic pulsed in his stubbly, square jaw.

He started to turn from me, hesitated, and groaned right before he cupped the back of my neck and brought his lips down on mine in a tender but crushing kiss that sent a flaming tingle all over my body.

Captivated by the spell he had over me, I dropped my hands to my sides and grasped his waist, our bodies pressing together. My dragon eased me down onto the drop cloth and undressed me, his eyes flickering with intense desire, his intent clear.

I wanted to tell him to stop because I didn’t want to be hurt when he left again, but instead, I undid his jeans and grasped his throbbing erection. A magnetic force drew me to him, so strong I couldn’t fight it.

He yanked his T-shirt off, kicked off his pants, and I feasted on his taut chest and abs covered in blue Celtic tattoos of spirals and animals. A majestic dragon adorned his body. The creature’s large head rested above his left breast, a massive leg and claw curved around his torso while the dragon’s body, wings, and tail spread across his shoulder and twisted down his left arm amongst the spirals. The sight of his gorgeous naked body, chiseled from pale stone like a fierce Celtic god and adorned with beautiful artwork, weakened my knees.

My gaze lowered and rested on his impressive length. My sex tingled. I wanted him deep inside of me. There was no need to worry about protection since I was on the pill.

“I think my ballocks are still a wee bit frightened of you.” He chuckled, his eyes sparkling.

“Maybe if I kiss them, they will forgive me.”

“Aye, they might.” He winked at me.

I cupped his balls in my hand and leaned over to kiss and suck them. He tasted like my favorite flavor of smoked hazelnuts and chocolate. His arousing groan rumbled in his chest, and he caressed my shoulders. My body ached for him in a way I never had for any man. This male was extraordinary, his powerful aura stroking my senses.

After gently coaxing me back down on the drop cloth, he mounted me and penetrated my walls. He gazed at me with adoration, the scars on his cheek lending him a fierce male beauty. I brushed my fingers across the deep, permanent scars I’d made. I’d marked him as mine even if I hadn’t been myself. A part of me had known.

He filled me with fire and passion, with fulfillment and belonging. We were kindred spirits. My rune vibrated and prickled with ferocious, relentless intensity.

Savic was my mate.

But a sense of sadness threatened to quell my brief happiness. Both of us were in great danger. As our orgasms rocked our bodies, foreboding followed, descending over me like a burial shroud to suffocate our moment of bliss.

Excerpt snippet #8 Nov. 9

 His perceptive gaze swept over my snug T-shirt, resting for a moment on my breasts, and then he appraised my sleeve tattoo of DC Comics characters on my right arm with a creased brow. He shifted his focus to my face, narrowing in on my nose and eyebrow ring before meeting my eyes.

He jerked his chin toward my hat. “Remove your helmet.”

Helmet? My senses prickled. I took off my baseball cap, stuffed it in my pants pocket, and stood still while he touched the highlighted red tips of my black hair.

“Strange, beautiful coloring, like flames against a moonless night sky.”

I swallowed hard. That was the most romantic line I’d ever heard from a guy. My cheeks grew hot.

Excerpt snippet #7 Nov. 2

King Roan grunted and put his finger beneath my chin, coaxing me to look at him. “What is your name?”

“Dina.”

His touch produced strange tingles. I quivered beneath his stare, the blue-gray in his eyes flickering and softening for a moment, his jaw set tight.

He quickly withdrew his finger and cleared his throat as if the brief spark of emotion when he’d touched me surprised him. “Rise.”

I slowly got to my feet and, finding some courage, straightened my posture, raised my head and thrust out my chin. He towered over me, well over six feet to my five foot four inches.

Excerpt snippet #6 Oct 26

The king prodded me with his leather-booted foot. “Who is this? She wears strange clothing.”

Huh, I’m thinking the same thing about you.

The ninja leader unwrapped his headscarf. “We found her inside our barriers.”

“A human breached our barriers?” A slight tone of alarm filled the king’s deep voice.

Human? What?

“I-I don’t know how I arrived here.”

The ninja leader seized the back of my neck, causing shooting pain, and I winced.

“Do not speak to the king unless told to do so,” he growled.

King Roan waved his hand downward. “Release her, Commander.”

He did but roughly pushed my head before he backed off. I turned a glare on the commander, cringed beneath his withering stare, and then faced the king, deciding it might be wise, at least for now, to keep my eyes lowered. These people were acting strange, and my gut was warning me to be careful.

Employment Interview with a Vampire Book Review

A fun read. Four stars.

I was looking for something short and fun to read and I came across Employment Interview with a Vampire. This was just what I needed. It's funny, engaging, and well written. I liked the main character, Deirdre. I could relate to her and all her normal problems most people face each day. Her interactions with her vampire boss and the ghosts had me smiling. If you are looking for a short, light read, I highly recommend this story.

Excerpt snippet #5 Oct 19

My head forcefully bent, I raised my gaze to the shadowed figure in the rear of the large room, glimpsing stone statues of animals and beautiful god-like beings peeking from the alcoves, an array of silvery, life-like etchings glimmering in the dimness.

The king stepped off a carved, pelt-covered wooden throne nestled between the trunks of two oak trees that grew out the curved roof. He came forward. A cold sneer curled his clean-shaven lip. Daylight beamed inside from a high window, illuminating him in a golden splash of light that bathed him in an ethereal radiance. My gaze widened. King Roan was the most beautiful, fiercest-looking man I’d ever seen with long white-blond hair and icy blue-gray eyes beneath thick, dark eyebrows. His skin was like milk. He wore a spotless, long-sleeved, belted purple tunic, dark brown leggings, and a simple but regal silver branch-like headband.

Seriously, where the hell am I? In a Lord of the Rings dream? Because this guy looked like one of the Grey Elves. That had been one powerful joint Selena had given me. Had the person who had paid her to drug me known this—whatever this was—would happen?

Beauty may be the real beast, The Wolf Queen, #MFRWsteam

Excerpt:

Lycaon hoped he could get Alara to be that pleased with him. Leaving them to their celebration, he searched and found the gray-eyed beauty sitting beneath a tree, her expression pensive. He swallowed hard before approaching her. “Alara.”

“I do not wish to share words with you.”

Taking a deep breath, he remembered Ena’s advice. “Alara, please. I thought you were going home with Denar.” He reached deep inside himself to find the true words. “I thought I had lost you.”

She watched him, one eyebrow arching. “Why did you think that?”

At least he had her attention. “I saw you kissing him. I thought I had no chance. Why would you want someone who looks like me when you can have someone like Denar? And he told me you were betrothed to him.”

She frowned and shook her head. “His impertinence is exactly why I decided not to go home with him.” Her eyes glistened with tears. “But you ran into Maia’s arms. Why? Do you love her?”

“No. No, it’s not what it appeared to be. Nothing happened other than some kissing. Nothing else. I swear it before Artemis. May one of her death arrows strike me if I am lying.” He cleared his throat. “I was unable to take it further because all I could think of was you.”

“I am supposed to believe nothing happened when I found you half-naked with a naked nymph? Why did you stay there with her?”

“Maia was naked because she came to me as a bird, and we used my tunic to sit on. She stayed with me because after I was…ah…,” he pinched the bridge of his nose, grimacing, “…unable to perform, I talked about returning to camp and ripping Denar’s head off. I can never be with anyone else. You…you have my heart, Alara. I am so sorry I hurt you.” He struggled to find the true words that wouldn’t make the situation worse.

She offered him a faint smile. “Please sit. You look as if you are going to fall down.”

He eased down beside her and stretched his legs.

“It hurt me to see you with Maia, even if all you did was kiss her, but I think I understand.” She gazed at him with affection. “You should know I do not pick my mate based on what he looks like.” She pulled his hood back. “And I think you are quite handsome.”

“You do?” He smiled. “Then you must be blind, Princess.”

“Denar may be handsome on the outside, but on the inside, he is arrogant and controlling. You are beautiful inside.” She pressed the palm of her hand to his chest. “You may think I am blind, but I think you are handsome on the outside, too.” She leaned in and kissed him.

Her bold move surprised him. He pulled her close and enjoyed her sweet-tasting lips. Alara’s kisses sent tingles to every part of his body. Lycaon wanted to be with her all the time.

She pulled away and smiled at him. “What made you change from angry to sensible?”

Her smile brightened his world. For the first time since the curse, he didn’t feel like an ugly, disgraced man.

He shrugged. “I just thought perhaps I was being too forceful.”

With a clever smile, she said, “Ena talked to you.”

Lycaon gave her a sidelong, rueful look. “She did. Do you forgive me?”

“Of course. It pleases me she was able to get through that thick skull of yours.” She laughed.

He stroked her cheek. Now that he had her, he couldn’t bear the thought of her endangering herself. “You do not have to try and link with those wolves. We can find a way to kill them.”

“I have to do it. It is something I feel inside.”

“What if it fails to work?” He cupped her chin. “I do not want to lose you.”

“I have to do it.” Her eyes glistened with tears.

At the sight of her tear-filled eyes, his senses tingled with foreboding. “What are you not telling me?”

“Do you want to be my mate?” she asked.

“Of course I do.”

She stood and grabbed his hand. “Come with me.”

He rose and allowed her to guide him into a thicket.

She wore a seductive smile. “Claim me. And once we are mated, I am yours and you are mine.” Her eyes darkened with possessiveness.

His loins stirred, and the heat of arousal consumed him. He didn’t need any other invitation. Pulling her into his arms, he captured her mouth in a forceful, tender kiss, his body rippling with pent-up desire. Nothing else mattered to him at that moment except to claim her and bury himself inside her, to have her all to himself.

He pulled up the layers of her deerskin tunic, kneeling with some difficulty. Using his lips and his tongue to kiss her breasts, he savored the softness of her skin as she moaned and squirmed against him. Moving lower, he tasted her. She smelled of flowers, her skin clean from her ritual cleansing. Flicking his tongue along her pink nub, he cupped her backside. He could smell her innocence, a pure, unblooded scent that incited his passion. No other man had ever had her. She tasted like the fresh morning dewdrops on a newly born day untouched yet by the drying rays of the rising sun. Her innocence raised his eagerness. A low, excited growl rumbled in his chest. The beast inside wanted to ravage her, but the man forced himself to hold back and be gentle.

Her fervent moans grew louder. She arched her hips, moving in rhythm to his strokes. Her body tensed up then shuddered beneath his tongue. She muffled her cries by pressing her mouth against the top of his head.

“I never imagined something so wonderful,” she said between panting breaths.

“I am not finished yet.” He gently laid her on the soft ground and removed his leggings.

She smiled wide-eyed at the sight of his erection. “It is so big. Will it hurt?”

He grinned proudly. “I promise to be gentle, Princess.” Careful not to crush her, he mounted her and eased himself inside, concentrating on taking her with care and not too roughly in his eagerness to claim his mate. His body shuddered at the feel of her tight, unconquered, warm sheath squeezing around him. It was pure bliss. Lycaon kissed her. “Just relax.”

She moaned, the vibration against his mouth sending shocks to every part of his body. His muscles tensed and coiled. Moving beneath him, she raised her hips to capture his length.

Groaning, he thrust deeper. Every part of his body burned with arousal and the anticipation of the blissful ending. “Gods, woman, you are perfect,” he whispered in a voice hoarse with emotion and excitement.

She surprised him by playfully biting his shoulder and digging her fingernails into his back, intensifying his arousal to a growing ache, building into a towering flame. Her gray eyes flashed with passion and fierce desire, her red lips parted in elation. He smiled and let out another growl. Alara possessed the spirit of a wolf in the bedchamber.

His thrusts quickened, and his body tightened in anticipation of release. Grunting loudly, he orgasmed, his body rocking with uncontrollable shudders. Beneath him, she quivered, her loud cries muffled by his loving kisses.

After their tremors ceased, he eased down beside her and held her against his chest. Recalling how she had been cold and lifeless in his arms a short time ago made his throat constrict and his eyes burn. He squeezed his eyes shut, tightening his hold on her.

He couldn’t lose her again.

Do you like werewolf tales with magic, intrigue, and mystery? The Wolf Queen will captivate you. This is a standalone story.


A tormented wolf man. A mysterious girl with a terrible secret.


Alara, a princess from a foreign land, is forced to wed the sorcerer-king Aramon, a power-hungry warlord, who discovers her dark secret and wants to use her to create an invincible army. When she meets Lycaon, she must decide if she should trust the cursed, tormented half-man half-wolf who might be her enemy or her true mate.

Lycaon, once a great king until he was cursed by Zeus to be a werewolf, is drawn to the mysterious princess. He is torn between helping Alara escape and using her to gain power over those who despise him.

Secrets abound and old enemies are reunited to battle Aramon before his terrible plan is unleashed. Time is running out as the dark moon approaches. Soon, Arcadia will be overrun with an unstoppable, vicious army unless Aramon can be defeated. To prevent his victory, the cost is high. As Lycaon’s affection for Alara grows, it becomes more difficult for him to decide which to save: Arcadia or her.

Excerpt snippet #4 Oct. 12

My captors pushed me toward the bridge spanning the river.

I scowled at them. “Hey, dudes, easy.”

“Walk or I will have you dragged across,” the leader grated between clenched teeth.

I lifted my chin and walked, the two men holding my arms. They led me up marble steps to an arched doorway. The leader stepped ahead of us, motioning for all four men to wait with me. After a few minutes, he reappeared, and then my captors thrust me inside the huge domed building I’d seen across the bridge. Gripping my upper arms in a painful hold, they ushered me down an entryway lined with torches and steered me around a central stone fire pit. They shoved me forward and released me so abruptly I fell to my knees, landing hard on a bearskin rug. I started to stand and was forced back down.

“Kneel before King Roan,” the leader rasped as he pushed on the back of my neck.

Excerpt snippet #3 Oct. 5

My senses prickled, the feeling that something was very wrong nagging at me. The strangeness of this place without cars and airplanes, the ninjas speaking an ancient language… I stiffened. Was it possible I’d traveled back in time? No, that was absurd.

Another thought hit me hard. My bandmates and I had recently learned that all five of us had true mates who shared our special gifts associated with our different rune tattoos. Kate, who wore the spirit world Journey rune, had found Kane, a Scottish movie star with faery blood. Cyn, marked with the Wolfsangel rune, had found Lucius, a werewolf, and Jessie, wearer of the Undead rune, had found Merrick, a half-human, half-vampire. Our powers didn’t grow until we met our mates, so either I’d unknowingly tapped into my rune gift for old languages, or my mate was here.

The same male who’d addressed me gave a short nod, and two of the ninjas seized my arms and yanked me forward.

“Hey, what are you doing?” I tried to struggle, but they were too strong.

Damn. If they were LARPing, they took it very seriously and didn’t break from their roles as they dragged me into the woods and out the other side. I gaped at the scene across the stone bridge. A palace and smaller structures built on top of pillars, all made of white stone like they’d been carved there by gods, were nestled beneath the high, rocky, grass-covered cliffs. Sparkling waterfalls flowed down beneath the cliff-side city and emptied into a river. Small trees adorned the landscape and added color to the gleaming white structures. Had I stepped into a fantasy novel?
