One hour ago I, Belladonna Reynolds, married a werewolf.
I said, “I do” to a man I had fallen head over heels in love with months earlier as the fall leaves were gently covered with snow.
I said “I do” to a man who shifts shape into wolf form.
And I said “I do” to a man who, during the full moon, is half-man, half-beast, and can frighten me as much as he seduces me.
His name is Stephan Severo. He’s close to a hundred years old.
I kissed him to seal our vows. Severo’s kisses are like this: tender whispers of flesh upon flesh; lashes of tongue capable of buckling my knees; deep, delving dances with my soul; an intense, sensual connection I wished not to cease.
He was staring at me now. Eyes like shadowed whiskey owned me. We stood upon the threshold before Severo’s mansion, a home we’ve shared since October. It was April, but I was not cold. I was shivering because I wasnervous. Tonight we were to consummate our vows.
It wouldn’t be the first time we’d made love, but I intended to make it feel like it.
Would he give me the one thing I needed more than air tonight?
this story sounds really interesting!
Stephan is a werewolf, but do you think the Twilight series about shape shifters, etc. brings a new group of readers to your books?
Karin, I certainly hope the Twilight crowd finds my books! I write both werewolves and vampires, so as they say, if you love Twilight….
Stephan Severo is actually one of my all-time favorite heroes. I was reluctant to write werewolves for a while, until he showed up inside my head. He’s rough and tough on the outside, but really such a sweetie inside. Sigh…
I truly like your books, Michele. I also like the sound of this novella. I agree, these kind of books could be really hot now because of Twilight. Good luck!
I loved the excerpt. Sounds wonderful.
I love Severo, but I have to say Bella is pretty awesome. She is a fav for me.
Oooh I have enjoyed her books in the past… love the excerpt, sounds like another terrific read!!!
Thanks for the chance to win MOON KISSED!!!
Yummy… Looks like I have yet another TBR book on my list!
Souns very interesting, cant wait to read it.
Sounds like a great story!
Oh wow, I love vampires and werewolves! And I am glad to find that combination in a book for grown-ups!
I love these book
would enjoy this book….:)
I should mention that After The Kiss is a followup story to Moon Kissed. Of course, you can read it alone and don’t have to read Moon Kissed to get it. But, if you’ve read Moon Kissed, you’ll want to check out After to see what happens with the hero and heroine six months after they met. I loved the opportunity to revisit favorite characters!
I enjoyed the excerpt, and I’d love to win Moon Kissed.
I loved the excerpt and the cover!
