Restoring His Howl
by Megan Slayer
Genre: Contemporary Paranormal
LGBT Romance
Opposites can attract,
but can they make the love last?
Dillon came to the
Sanctuary to hide, but also to heal. He’d been abused and needed a safe place
to come into his own. He never expected to find a partner, but love came
looking for him. Can he accept what he deserves or will he push away a chance
at forever because he feels unlovable?
Cinders knows from the
moment he sees Dillon that he wants the wolf shifter for his own. But can a
jaguar shifter and a wolf shifter really pair up? He doesn’t know, but he’s
banking on the attraction to pay off. What he doesn’t expect is how deep
Dillon’s scars run. Is he strong enough to see beyond what’s happened to Dillon
and help create a future for them together?
Anything’s possible
when the jaguar shifter, a former stripper, and the wolf shifter figure out how
to restore his howl.
Excerpt
He spotted a black form moving in the grass. He hunched down
and studied the animal. A jaguar. He should know the big cat by sight but
didn’t know which shifter it was. The more the jaguar moved, the more Dillon
watched. He couldn’t help himself. The black feline moved with grace and seemed
to be showing off. The jaguar mesmerized Dillon. He’d seen plenty of big cats
and knew there were at least two other jaguars on the property. Fifteen lions,
four tigers, three jaguars, a bobcat shifter and six humans were currently at
the Sanctuary—but he only knew a couple of them.
Something stirred within Dillon. Longing? Desire? A little
bit of both? He didn’t think he could be loved because of the damage to his
body and soul, but he wanted someone to care for him. To care about him. To see
beyond his past and accept him. Was that even possible? Once others learned
what he’d done and how often, they’d run the hell away from him and for good
reason. He hadn’t been in control of himself, but did that matter? Maybe not,
but he wanted a mate, and he had to hope they’d be able to give him a chance.
Mate… He snorted. Another wolf would be the best option, so
why was he watching the jaguar? The wolf should be in charge and finding
another wolf. Did the wolf crave the jaguar? Maybe. His human side definitely
wanted the big cat. Well, no… The human side wanted to meet the human within
the jaguar.
Christ. No, he couldn’t meet the shifter. What was he
thinking? Not only would he wreck the fantasy, but he’d have to let in the
person. Closeness meant the possibility of being hurt or abandoned. Hell, no.
“Aren’t you a pretty boy?”
He froze. He’d forgotten about watching the jaguar the
moment he’d gotten wrapped up in his mind. The big cat was nowhere in sight.
Shit, shit, shit. He knew the voice, though. Cinders. Of course, the jaguar was
the stripper. How had he not figured that out? Because he hadn’t been paying
attention. He was now.
