My name is
Nancy Adams. I am a full-blooded Canadian, right down to the maple syrup
running though my veins. I enjoy watching hockey but despise skating...and the
cold. I enjoy a good helping of Tourtiere with a side of Poutine as much as the
next person, yet I am only bilingual when it comes to swear words.Besides
writing, I have three small - but legal - addictions: bed linens, lavender and
books. All of which are replenished on a regular basis. Reading into the wee
hours of the morning is one of my many bad habits, next to spontaneously
rearranging furniture and randomly painting rooms in my house.
BLURB:
Theo’s sole purpose
for the last ninety-eight years was to protect his wolf. That changed the
moment he met Drew and the wolf called ‘Mate’.
Carrying the soul of
an extinct wolf alongside your own isn’t easy. Swapping into said wolf is even
harder. Ask Theo Grey—he’s been doing it for ninety-eight years. Yet, after
surviving two world wars, witnessing the space race and patiently enduring the
eighties, you’d think he’d have seen it all, but nothing could have prepared
him for meeting Tofino’s new vet, Drew O’Bannion and according to the wolf, his
mate.
Drew loves her dog,
sleeping in and coffee. She also loves being a vet. The main reason behind her
accepting the veterinarian practice offered to her from a family friend. Hoping
for a slower pace at life Tofino seemed the ideal spot. What she didn’t expect
was Officer Theo Grey. Theo is tall, dark and drop dead gorgeous, a definite 10
on the ‘wow’ scale. Regardless of his looks, there is more to Theo, there is
her unexpected attraction for him. It’s unnerving and completely out of
character for her, but she is able to match Theo’s hungry kiss, for hungry
kiss.
With their desire
growing at an alarming rate and the threat of an unknown shooter roaming the
woods of the coastal town, Theo must face the ultimate decision—let Drew go for
her own safety or claim his mate for all time.

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT:
“So your little lover has left you, has she? Gone back to
treat sick animals? How very noble of her.”
The wolf growled and Theo fought the urge to reach through
the window and haul Linde’s fat ass to the ground and beat some manners into
him. He knew Linde was trying to prick at his temper, wanted him to make a
mistake, and if Theo did that as a police officer, there would be
repercussions. This was when living for well over a hundred and twenty years
came in handy, dealing with—as Drew liked to call them—ass-hats.
“Very good, Mr Linde. Hitting where you believe you can
cause the most damage.”
“Thank you. I’ve been playing this game a long time.” Linde
grinned.
“That would make two of us.”
“Now that is intriguing.” Linde sat forward and rested his
elbows on his knees. “And how long would that be exactly?”
Theo snorted despite the anger that swirled in his belly.
The wolf pushed to the surface of his face. Theo’s skin
prickled and his eyes burned. The beast had done this very thing a few times
before to warn off potential threats, so Theo recognized the sensation right
away. This behavior wasn’t something he allowed very often, but in this case he
went with the flow. He took off his sunglasses, and bending at the waist, he
leveled his stare at the older man. “It’s time for you to leave this area, Mr
Linde,” Theo said with a smile.
Linde’s eyes suddenly grew wide as Theo’s eyes flashed a
silvery-white.
Linde blinked as Theo chuckled and once again covered his
eyes with his sunglasses. Linde didn’t appear overly nervous, but the wolf
pulled in his fear.
Satisfaction hummed through his veins. Damn, that felt good.
