I'm enjoying a writers' weekend in the woods (in a great house - not literally camping in the woods!) a gorgeous block off Lake Michigan, working on my WeWriWa post that doesn't want to cooperate. Enjoy a nibble from my By Moonlight shapeshifter series straight to you from New Orleans (wishing I WAS there!)! I'm working on getting the rights back to the first four books which are now out of print so I can package them for newer readers (and for those who may have lost them or want them i e-format).
MASKED BY MOONLIGHT (Book 1 of 12)
Detective Charlotte Caissie's vow to take down a crime boss is complicated by her attraction to the mobster's attack dog (Literally!) Max Savoie. She can't afford to trust any man. Good thing Max isn't one! Enjoy!
The Excerpt
"Well?" Her question caressed his bruised mouth.
"What?" Barely a whisper.
Her fingertip followed the hard line of his jaw. "Aren't you going to kiss me back?"
"Absolutely." And he swooped down on her like a hawk.
Her hands busily unknotted his tie, unbuttoned his shirt, pushing it from his shoulders to catch at his wrists. As it fell free, he felt the cold touch of metal of her handcuffs then something sharp pierced his shoulder.
(. . . and a bite more . . .)
Charlotte pushed away from him, panting, her lipstick smeared, eyes wide and wild. And then he got the first hint of how deep her clever treachery went as the sliver of silver began to eat through his system like acid.
Now that's a first date. Can't wait to get the By Moonlight books back out to readers (and in e-format, too!).
Okay, back to work!
