ACK!
I've been on a book tour and doing revisions and ...the list goes on. I can't believe it's already mid June.
You can find more about my book tour and the awesome prizes I'm giving away at the end at my blog.
So I'll leave you all today with an excerpt from my June 7 release PRIVATE RELEASE from Ellora's Cave while I take a nap.
Excerpt:
He looked down at his hands. At least his
claws were still intact, but he couldn’t draw them. How the hell was he
supposed to protect his clan or even mark his mate for that matter without that
ability?
“If I tell them they’ll strip me of my heritage.
Males of my father’s family have always been chief. The line of my ancestors
can’t end here.”
Étienne snorted and nodded. “Understood.
If they want you to shift…”
“Tell them the bullet wound still pains me
and shifting is dangerous. I don’t need to link telepathically with any of them
tonight.”
“Very well. Anything else I need to know
before you go in front of the council and I start guard duty?”
“A private investigator is coming to help
me with tracking down the stolen funds.”
Étienne’s brow furrowed. “An outsider?”
“My brother-in-law recommended her.”
“A female?” Étienne asked in surprise.
“She isn’t like Mukswa females. She’s a private investigator who worked with the
RCMP, but branched out on her own.”
Étienne didn’t look convinced. “You should’ve
let me investigate her background.”
“My decision is final,” Jared snapped. “My
judgment is sound. I am chief.”
Étienne’s black eyes glittered, but he
nodded and lowered his head in deference.
Jared instantly regretted his outburst.
Lately all he seemed to be doing was spouting off at random and he hated it.
A chief was supposed to be calm, cool and
collected.
He was a wreck.
“Let’s get this over with,” he muttered as
he pushed the button on his private elevator. He just wanted tonight to be
done.
Tonight he’d let the elders choose his
future mate. Perhaps then he could move on.
