Madison Carter has been terrified of Scott Lee
since the night he saved her from an evil sorcerer – then melted into a
man-eating monster before her eyes. The werewolf is a slave to the moon, but
Madison’s nightmares are not.
Despite her fears, when Madison’s brother, Clinton,
is bitten by a werewolf, she knows there is only one man who can help. A man
who frightens her all the more because even in her nightmares, he also thrills
her.
Together for the first time since that terrible
night, Scott and Madison drive to Clinton’s home only to discover that he’s
vanished. Frantic now, Madison must overcome her fears and uncover hidden
strengths if she hopes to save him. And she’s not the only one fighting inner
demons. Scott’s are literal, and they have him convinced that he will never
deserve the woman he loves.

EXCERPT:
Her head rested perfectly atop his shoulder. She
wasn't a short woman and he wasn't a tall man. He only had three inches on her,
but it put her at the perfect height for his embrace. She fit him. Her
beautiful body, soft and full, fit him perfectly too. This wasn't a woman who
would break at his touch.
He wanted to kiss her. He wanted more than that,
but just now he wanted to feel her lips against his. He had refrained the night
before, glorying in her touch alone, forcing himself to let that be all he
needed. But today he wasn't sure it would be enough. Today he felt desperate
and unsure.
He placed a finger under her chin and lifted it
slightly. Her eyes met his in question, but he didn't answer in words. He
answered by settling his lips over hers in a soft, gentle brushing of skin
against skin. Then he backed away slightly.
Her eyes were closed and her lips slightly parted.
She looked a bit dazed and very unsure, but she wasn't pushing him away. He
could smell her growing interest and it made his heart swell with newfound hope
and need.
He brushed his lips against hers again before
deepening the caress. She returned the kiss, a little inexpertly but with all
the passion he'd known she possessed. She opened her mouth to him.
