Book two in the Coyote Hunger series. Brogan Wilder knows all about animal urges. As a coyote shifter, he's lived with them all his life but he's never experienced the bone-deep hunger Eloise Crawford elicits. Claiming a mate is one thing. Claiming one who's human and has no idea shifters exist is another matter altogether. In El, he's found his destiny. Now he just has to convince her they are meant to be together. A visit to help her best friend with wedding plans seems like just the kind of relaxation El is after. But once she arrives, there's nothing relaxing about the reaction she has to her friend's brother. Suddenly her senses are on high alert and she's drawn to him in a way she finds nothing short of terrifying. But there's more to this man than his golden eyes and magical touch. There's something else. Something not exactly human. Accepting her fate should have been the difficult part, but when El finds herself the target of an outraged pack member, the true struggle begins.

Book three in the Coyote Hunger series. "Doc" Gordie has tried to keep Steve McKenna at arm's length, but the sexy coyote shifter is under her skin, in her blood and in her heart.

There hasn't been a day Steve has not wanted Doc in his bed, but bruised and bloody is not what he had in mind.

He must first convince Doc the safest place for her is by his side. When a second attack draws them together, suppressed needs explode, leaving no doubt where they both belong. But danger is never far behind and Gordie is forced to make a fatal decision that could destroy all they've worked so hard to discover.
