Celebrate
the release of Mind Mates by Mary Hughes!
When
a powerful wizard prince comes out of hiding to save his sister in
Mary Hughes’ newest paranormal romance, MIND MATES, he is forced to
team with a pretty shifter—one with ugly, dangerous powers of her
own. As vengeful enemies close in, a forbidden attraction flaming
between them, the two race to find a mysterious key. MIND MATES will
enthrall fans of ALL KITTEN ASIDE by Milly Taiden or WARLOCK UNBOUND
by Dana Marie Bell, who love hot wizard princes and good-girl
shifters with a naughty side.
Pretty little shifter,
wizard prince—their taboo love could burn the barriers between
worlds.
Shifter Emma Singer has more
problems than she can shake her pretty little wolf tail at. Her
heirloom journal is missing, her pack alpha wants her for his harem,
and her family plans to sell her to him. Even her wicked little crush
on her hot boss is doomed—why would six-and-a-half feet of handsome
royal wizard want a boring, good-girl iota shifter like her? Not to
mention her only power is going berserker—that's a real
relation-shipwreck!
Gabriel Light is a wizard
prince who turned his back on his exceptional powers after he was
accused of causing his parents' death. Now he pours his intellect
into his tech business, and hides his naughty, forbidden lust for his
pretty shifter clerk. But when his sister is imprisoned, and Emma is
kidnapped, it's time for this alpha geek-wizard to decloak with all
laser cannons blazing. Only one problem—how can he be sure Emma
won’t get caught in the crossfire?
Then Gabriel and Emma
stumble on hidden magic, a key to power beyond imagining—if they
can stay alive long enough to use it. But if Emma unleashes her
berserker wolf on their enemies, can Gabriel draw her back from the
brink before she destroys everyone in her path?
Warning: Contains a hot
wizard prince panting to bring out a good-girl shifter's naughty
side. Accidental voyeurism, deliberate orgasms, a jealous rival
wizard, and fun with prophecy.
Excerpt:
Owner of the
Choice Buy store in Michigan, wizard prince Gabriel Light sees his
employee, wolf shifter Emma Singer, fall off a tall ladder. He’s
just managed to catch her and set her on her feet when her angry pack
alpha shows up.
Bzz-bzzt. A
buzz like an angry hornet stung wizard prince Gabriel Light’s ears
the moment the predator slunk into the store.
Cap’n Crunch
me. Gabriel had magically alarmed the door for just such an
event, but why now, when he’d finally gotten a semi-innocent excuse
to wrap his arms around this warm bundle of soft, sweet-smelling
heaven?
Emma. It felt like
he’d been dying to hold her forever. Now, with her in his arms, was
the first time in months he could breathe.
But that buzzing
alarm told him the approaching beast was male, a wolf shifter, and,
from that level of sting, Emma’s alpha. The beast was not going to
appreciate seeing her in another man’s arms.
She started
trembling, no doubt in response to the alpha’s rampant fight-club
stench, a musk even Gabriel could smell. He tried to ease her tension
with a joke.
“Hey, Emma. How
many tickles does it take to make an octopus laugh?”
She skewered him
with a disbelieving stare, icing his flesh. He’d blundered, she
didn’t understand he was trying to comfort her, nobody gets my
skewed sense of humor… Then she gulped and said, “Eight? Like,
um, eight legs?”
Immediately his
world brightened. “Nope. Ten tickles. Get it? Tentacles?”
She managed a tiny
laugh, tinkling bells to his ears, and her body relaxed slightly
under his arms. “That was such a dad joke.”
He loved that she,
of all the people he knew, actually laughed at his jokes. He smiled
into her eyes like a besotted fool.
Of course, that
was when the he-wolf prowled into view.
Gabriel wondered
how far he could get with the wolf by protesting his intentions were
honorable. Probably not far. The creature was only barely in human
form.
The wolfman was
medium height but had a face like a dented shovel and a body like a
trash compactor, his muscles-on-muscles popping in a stringy T-shirt
that barely qualified past no-shirt-no-shoes-no-service.
Worse, with the
hair sprouting everywhere, nose elongating like a snout, and
lengthening canines, this alpha was dangerously pissed.
Hard to reason
with a pissed-off wolf. They tended to bite first then ask
questions…never.
Yet instead of
releasing Emma, Gabriel’s hand dropped from her clenched jaw to
open protectively on her back.
“The fuck?”
the wolfman snarled.
Something inside
Gabriel snarled right back.
As a girl, Mary Hughes spun romantic, happily-ever-after stories to
get to sleep. A husband, family, two degrees and a blackbelt later,
she's delighted to spin them for readers.
She's lived with love and loss, in bright times and dark, and learned
we can all use a break from reality every now and then.
So join her for action, sparkling wit and red-hot love. Strong men.
Stronger women.
