Hi
Everyone!
Hope you are having a fabulous summer.
Mine is chock full of both house and writing projects, all happening with music
booming in the background, of course. Not a day goes by in my household without
someone dabbling in Music Land: my daughter sings, I play the piano, my husband
works on electronic music tracks, and we all listen to our favorite artists du
jour.
Music inspires. Music motivates. And it’s
an essential part of my writing process. Here’s the soundtrack for Diamond Moon, a paranormal romance starring Ross and Darci.
Happy listening! :-)

Human-wolf
hybrid Darci Diamond spends every full moon locked in auntie’s basement in
Southern Oregon. Her excruciating shifts terrify her, the last one causing her
heart to stop beating. Seeking a cure, she journeys to Los Lobos.
Ross
Luparell returns to the struggling Tao pack, using his millions made in the
tech industry to build homes for pack families in need. He never imagined he
would also find his one true mate. But when a hybrid with the biggest green
eyes he’s ever seen lands on his doorstep in the middle of a wicked summer
storm, there’s no denying it. She’s the one.
She
wants a normal human life, free from pain-filled shifts. He won’t give up on
her Wolf, and will do whatever it takes to help her accept her true nature. But
can he convince her to trust him with her heart?

Excerpt:
He reached out with his Wolf senses. The
feedback froze his fingers on the doorknob. Female. Damn, she smelled good.
Human. Wolf. Wait…both? The copper tang of blood hit his nose. And injured.
He flung open the door. His abrupt move
caught his visitor off guard, one small, white fist raised to knock. The woman
startled and fell forward. Catching her, he pulled her inside, kicking the door
shut with his foot.
She sagged against him, a shivering
bundle of wet woman. Underneath the dampness, her scent drop-kicked his gut.
Apples and cinnamon. Roses and honey. His body perked up, taking extreme
notice. He fought the growl of possession threatening to tear out of his
throat. Holy hell, had his potential mate just walked into his home in the
middle of a storm?
The scent of her blood jump-started his
brain into action. He lowered her gently to the floor. “Jesus. You okay?”
His instincts urged him to check her for
wounds, but he was a stranger and didn’t want to spook her. But goddamn, he
wanted to touch her. Peel off her wet clothes. See all of her. With a jacket
covering her torso, tight jeans hiding her legs, and her ball cap pulled low on
her face, all he’d seen so far was her quivering pale chin, full red lips, and
those delicate, trembling hands.
“S-s-sorry, d-dripping all ov-v-ver your
f-f-floor,” she said, teeth chattering. Her snow white fingers curled on the
hardwood, arms trembling with her effort to keep herself upright. Blood
streaked the wood. A line of liquid crimson slid down her jaw and dripped from
her chin onto her jacket.
To hell with propriety. “You’re injured.
Let me help you.” He pulled off her cap and damn near swallowed his tongue.
Big green eyes blinked up at him from a
face so pale it made him think of moonlight. Drenched, short black hair lay
plastered to her head, the ends framing features reminiscent of the fairies his
sister loved to draw for the hidden-object games she designed. Ethereal beauty.
My beauty. He stroked a knuckle down her cheek then ran his thumb over her
soft, full lower lip.
She flinched and batted his hand away, falling
to her side in the process.
Ross snapped back to reality with a
healthy hit of guilt. “Shit. Sorry.”
His gaze shot to her forehead where a
two-inch cut sent blood trailing over her prominent cheekbone with its
silky-smooth skin he’d so enjoyed caressing—
Shit. He gave himself a mental ass
kicking for scaring her. “I’m Ross. You’re safe here. Promise.”
