This is the 1st installment of the 3-part serial, Taken by the Werewolves, continuing the story of the Shadow Falls werewolf pack. Note: It is essential that the 5-part serial, Offered to the Werewolves, be read first, in order for the reader to become familiar with the backstory, and enjoy the continuing saga... ————— Veronica’s a sexy, badass vampire trained to kill. What’s worse is that she knows she’s in a class of her own. Her expertise is why the coven chose her to go to Shadow Falls to speak with the alpha of the pack. The werewolves have rights to the human territory that her coven desperately wants to acquire. Veronica’s always looking for a challenge and sneaking into Shadow Falls to convince the alpha to bend to her will is enticing enough. Vince is a massive beast of a werewolf, used to getting what he wants. Now that his pack is settled and firmly established, he’s only concerned with moving forward with his life and leaving the past where it belongs. He’s been waiting for his mate so he could own every bit of her body like he’s meant to. When he discovers she’s a vampire, he’s even more determined to make her his. He should be more concerned with the motives of her coven and threats from a rival pack, but all he can picture is this sexy, powerful woman begging on her knees for his bite. Unfortunately for him, Veronica isn’t one to beg and she has desires of a different taste. There's only one mate for a wolf. And it seems fate has chosen her for him. But wolves are dominating creatures. Veronica's been designed to take control and she’s ruthlessly unforgiving in getting what she wants. She feels the same pull just as strongly as Vincent, but why should she bow down and let him claim her when he hasn’t earned her submission?
