Book Description
He’d never felt pain so deep... Empathic alpha Vincent Baxter had rescued dozens of abused beta bear-shifters, but he’d never met one like Kinny Cross. Not only does the young cub awaken his protective instincts, but Kinny manages to erase the pain Baxter has absorbed from the other mistreated shifters, sparking an interest Baxter feels he has no right to have. Claimed by a sadistic mate who delights in torturing him, Kinny found himself imprisoned by metal and unable to shift for years. Convinced he’ll die long before he’s rescued, Kinny is shocked to find not only hope for a normal life but also a profound attraction to a true alpha male like Baxter. Even though Baxter doesn’t believe he deserves to be happy, things don’t work the way they once did. Instead of alphas having the right to choose, the second time around it’s betas who decide. Once Kinny realizes it’s his choice, Baxter doesn’t stand a chance, but that doesn’t mean the reluctant alpha will surrender without a struggle. Will Kinny be able to overcome Baxter’s past, or will the powerful bear-shifter remain alone? This M/M paranormal shifter romance contains a grumpy old bear who doesn’t believe he deserves love, a bold cub who will stop at nothing to get the mate he desires, a wide and diverse cast of fascinating shifters, and a hard-won HEA that will change their world forever. 54,500 words or 218 pages.

Pages : 400
Book Description
“Shelly Laurenston’s shifter books are full of oddball characters, strong females with attitude and dialogue that can have you laughing out loud.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer Some men just have more to offer. Like hard-muscled, shape-shifting Bo Novikov--part polar bear, part lion, pure alpha… Ten years after Blayne Thorpe first encountered Bo Novikov, she still can't get the smooth-talking shifter out of her head. Now he's shadowing her in New York--all seven-plus feet of him--determined to protect her from stalkers who want to use her in shifter dogfights. Even if he has to drag her off to an isolated Maine town where the only neighbors are other bears almost as crazy as he is. Let sleeping dogs lie. Bo knows it's good advice, but he can't leave Blayne be. Blame it on her sweet sexiness--or his hunch that there's more to this little wolfdog than meets the eye. Blayne has depths he hasn't yet begun to fathom--much as he'd like to. She may insist Bo's nothing but a pain in her delectable behind, but polar bears have patience in spades. Soon she'll realize how good they can be together. And when she does, animal instinct tells him it'll be worth the wait… "Non-stop laughter, snark, and witty banter." –SmexyBooks Praise for the novels of Shelly Laurenston "Delicious, sexy and wicked fun!" --New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter on Bear Meets Girl

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
"Brad Ricca’s Olive MacLeod is my favorite sort of woman from history—bold and unconventional, utterly unsinkable—and her story is so full of adventure and acts of courage, it’s hard to believe she actually lived. And yet she did! Brad Ricca has found a heroine for the ages, and written her tale with a winning combination of accuracy and imagination." — Paula McLain, author of Love and Ruin and The Paris Wife From the Edgar-nominated author of the bestselling Mrs. Sherlock Holmes comes the true story of a woman's quest to Africa in the 1900s to find her missing fiancé, and the adventure that ensues. In 1910, Olive MacLeod, a thirty-year-old, redheaded Scottish aristocrat, received word that her fiancé, the famous naturalist Boyd Alexander, was missing in Africa. So she went to find him. Olive the Lionheart is the thrilling true story of her astonishing journey. In jungles, swamps, cities, and deserts, Olive and her two companions, the Talbots, come face-to-face with cobras and crocodiles, wise native chiefs, a murderous leopard cult, a haunted forest, and even two adorable lion cubs that she adopts as her own. Making her way in a pair of ill-fitting boots, Olive awakens to the many forces around her, from shadowy colonial powers to an invisible Islamic warlord who may hold the key to Boyd’s disappearance. As these secrets begin to unravel, all of Olive’s assumptions prove wrong and she is forced to confront the darkest, most shocking secret of all: why she really came to Africa in the first place. Drawing on Olive’s own letters and secret diaries, Olive the Lionheart is a love story that defies all boundaries, set against the backdrop of a beautiful, unconquerable Africa. This book is not for sale in the United Kingdom.
